Polievre wants to defund the CBC, build more oil pipelines and continue the expansion of city suburbs. No way I'd vote for that guy. The only good thing I've seen him say is that there should be more competition in the telecommunications market, but it does not take much effort to point out a problem.
There are so many issues with a Con government--like not even admitting climate change exists, that's not great--and you mentioned many others.
I'm honestly tired of women bailing us out in these elections though, so I cannot imagine what it's like for them to have to keep doing it.
That said, when men were losing their jobs they got told "learn to code" by callous and shitty journalists and women's rights activists. It's not hard to see why men are abandoning liberal governments that blame them for everything even while they are experiencing statistically worse outcomes with each successive generation.
The solution is so simple that you have to be abandoning it on purpose: promise men educations and to help them get employed, and you'll get all the support you need.
Where on earth has this happened?
So tell the men in charge to do that. We don't live in a matriarchy, women fight the exact same fights you mentioned. You think women don't get laid off just like men do? I've been in games for almost 20 years and I can tell you it's not any better for the women in it.
I will say, we'd never be in this mess if we didn't have the Twitter crowd claiming Masculinity and Whiteness are sins in and of themselves.
Tell a white man he's evil cause he's a white man, and he'll gladly side with someone who admits to being racist.
I mean yes but it's more than just feelings and hateful people on Twitter:
And when you talk about this as a man you get exactly the kind of replies I got, or worse. This is how you drive men right.
Pretty much.
He practically wants to ban porn too. He's not a very nice fellow.
Forget the porn, it's the absolute insanity of forcing (and allowing) all these different web services to get and maintain our identities. Huge privacy breach from people preaching that government overreach is bad... This hypocrisy gets old fast.
The Conservatives didn't do anything last time about this despite it being a big discussion point, and they had years of majority to do it. I don't see them changing tack since they don't seem too bothered by any of Canada's other oligarchs.
All that said, the Liberals barely took a step forward on this either, right before taking a huge step back allowing Rogers and Shaw to merge. These damned neoliberals just refuse to help anyone.
