We have been huffing capitalist poppers while banging economic steroids for decades in order to sustain the conceit that Socialism Bad Rich People Know Best
Stop huffing the poppers and stop voting for the steroids. Vote NDP.
If you truly think the NDP is going to change things that drastically or that fast you're equally deluded.
I'm saying this as someone squarely on the left of the spectrum that hasn't even sniffed voting PC since Harper left office having voted NDP or Green the majority of the times Federally and Provincially and vehemently against Ford and PP.
All that aside though, politics are politics. Rest assured the NDP will still bend a knee if they made it in. Would love to be proven wrong, but I'm pragmatic.
Let's get them in just once and see. In the meantime, they are a black box as far as how they would govern, and yet, everyone keeps choosing the turd sandwich or the giant douche.
Aw come on man. Quit that bullshit.
Who else are you going to vote for then??? Liberals or conservatives??? Are you going to give away you vote to some other minor little party or individual while those two get the majority?
Nah man. Fuck it. NDP is the only viable option at this point that can gather enough views to beat the libs or the cons. If only people would rally behind them, they'd win.
Provincially it's Green party or bust. Federally it was Green until they imploded until they get their shit together it's a toss between NDP and Liberal depends on who best represents me.
Cons may align fiscally or geopolitically I'm some ways but they've regressed far too hard socially to even begin to entertain.
