      Hyperbole much? People only ever care once something affects them personally. Do I think the CPC is the better option, probably not. But I won’t reward the same bunch of clowns just cause they put a new face on the party and rolled back some policies in the face of election annihilation. They should have done that before it got to that point instead of talking down to people. Since I can’t vote green in my riding I’m left with little choice.

        Highlighted the usual Conservative Projection™ for you.

          Sorry but I don’t get the point of your comment. Are you saying only conservatives exhibit this behavioural pattern? Cause I’d have to strongly disagree on that point.

          And just for you, the last election I voted NDP. The one before that I voted Libs. And before that I didnt bother. So get lost with your bullshit generalizations. I’m far from a conservative but I also think people blindly voting a color is dumb and wish parties were not listed on ballots.

            Was it a bullshit generalization? Sure. I’ve seen the “doing a lot of projection without realizing it” mostly - but not exclusively - from those considered “right wing”, but they’re not the only one doing it. I’m sure I’ve been guilty of it at a time or another, but if you ask everyone that spouts bullshit generalization to “get lost”, given that

            People only ever care once something affects them personally

            Is also a bullshit generalization, I’d say we should both get lost.

            Not together, evidently.
