Fair; I don't have a finger on the pulse in Canada, if there's a risk that the principles of the conservatives are eclipsing human decency in prevalence, then send your message! I expect you'd send the same message by voting for whoever you want to vote for (assuming you'd prefer to vote NDP or Green or whatever), but again, I'm not trying to shame anybody for voting for democrats. If you're not a fascist, vote your heart out for whatever reason you like. That's great. Of course I hope the democrats change, but if they don't change, the best result of that would be they win by the skin of their teeth and are terrified enough that they may change next time. In the US, Donald trump got fewer votes in 2024 than he did in 2020; he's way less popular even in absolute terms despite a larger voting population. The democrats are WAY WAY WAY less popular than they were in 2020. And I hope they take something constructive from that. I want them to win.
I just object to being told I'm a bad person for having any standards whatsoever that would stop me from voting for someone (not supporting genocide is a pretty low bar to clear and democrats are lying on the floor to smash their face into it).
