Man we are so fucked.

An election is started tomorrow, P.P. would win. And I don't even know why. There's nothing appealing about the guy. He looks like MIlhouse trying to look cool, but with the attitude of a Karen that does nothing but complain and offer no solution to any problem. All he does is throw these little one-liners and his "common sense" empty reply bullshit when people ask serious questions. They've even gone so far as to try to courtship Maxime Bernier's alt-right followers with all sorts of far-right ideas.

Everyone knows him and the cons are going to hand over Canada to Trump on a silver platter while we get fucked.

Oh, he's offered solutions in the past, and his wild lack of experience has shown that he'd be terrible at the job. Remember when he said Bitcoin was the only proof against inflation, then people lost everything? (https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poilievre-crypto-explainer-1.6653739)

People don’t want solutions or ideas, they just want someone who complains the way they do.

I’ve gone full cynic now.

I’ve gone full cynic now.

Yeah. Ditto. At this point I'm just like "fuck 'em all" and I'm just going to keep my head down and do my thing to try my best to survive.

There's no point wasting any energy to try to explain to people why it's so wrong to vote conservative. People ain't got no empathy or sympathy anymore. It's all "My house, my car, my taxes" and fuck everybody else. One hell of a self-centered society that we live in now.
