Oh I misunderstood this comment initially and thought you were admitting to making alt accounts to downvote but someone actually created a bunch of alts with your name to downvote you and others? Psychotic behaviour lol
Nah I'm done with the US entirely. The only way I can see us moving forward with them at this point is if they split into smaller independent countries but the USA is a toxic hateful mess
I'm very much critical of those topics, but they're a bit beyond the scope of my initial comment. Just to make it clear, I'm not a centrist nor a Liberal voter. My original point is that the average Canadian LPC voter is not voting out of malice for others but out of a desire for stability (especially now in a time where things are very unstable). For example, a Liberal would generally want existing social support systems like our socialised healthcare to continue being funded at the levels that meet people's needs but are generally anxious at the idea of funding new similar programs like pharmacare.
Most of these voters also have zero real insight or historical context on geopolitical topics such as neocolinialism and I can say confidently that they're not thinking about it when voting.
I think it's all ignorant, misguided and lacks vision but I don't consider it something that's worthy of being labeled "bad".
Sorry, what are you referring to exactly? If it's the treatment of indigenous peoples in Canada or historical collaboration with the US' imperialistic wars then I'd agree with you but I know the average Liberal voter isn't thinking about either of those things. While it's bad that it's not on their mind, I wouldn't call them bad people for it as I would do with enthusiastic supporters of Pierre Poilievre's CPC
Centrists in Canada are just Liberals and while I disagree with some of their policies, they're not bad, just status quo. Centrists in the US are undoubtedly bad though because what the hell?
Yeah, it'd be a-okay since its just "not-lethal force"!
