Unbelievably damning results. I don't see how the CPC can continue to function as a party.

The 35% of CPC grading an A or B is unhinged (or just conservatives).

That's my assesment too. There's a giant internal divide that's been sharpening ever since Harper unified the two parties. His majority gov't papered over it but the lack of any victory for over a decade has undone that. I think there's either going to be a split, or their vote share would decrease over time by means of the non-F voters leaving or not voting at all.

Exactly. CPC leadership seems unwilling to understand that there's a difference between a big tent and a Nazi bar. Since the Reform merger the party used to be the former, but now it's the latter. It's no wonder we're seeing so many floor crossings, and it's bound to get worse and probably accelerate. This will also badly hurt their candidate recruitment efforts - who would want to put their name on the ballot for this party other than people who buy into this ideology?

Only first-past-the-post enables it to.

2/3 of the cpc want that fascism in canada, as long as they are in charge.

Because Conservatives are fascist boot lickers.

Some Conservatives are actively seditious, working with the USA to destroy Canada from within. And many others support this and would love to have something like ICE attacking people they don't like here.

What a fascist piece of inhuman garbage

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

So he wants to "deport" all non-white people and all the white people he doesn't like. It's not a political philosophy, it's a childish tantrum.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 4 points 9 hours ago

it's a childish tantrum.

Only as long as he doesn't get the power to execute on it. 😅

Oh, that's one big YIKE.

Is there a grade lower than an F for active attempts at reversing education? There needs to be a place to put fascists who can't abide by democracy, oh yeah - jail!

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 6 points 9 hours ago

Is there a grade lower than an F

I give him an FU.

Lots of "american lite" folks in Canada. I can see it, as we share the same culture and capitalism. Not surprising that there are more on the side of the "republican lite" party. Don't spread your legs for the cash. You are Canadians. You can do better than that! /s

Don’t spread your legs for the cash.

Sex work is at least honest commerce. Don't denigrate it by comparing it to the US's political circus.

Nobody’s getting the cash except the billionaires. Too many people who think they’re temporarily impoverished billionaires in this world.

Wait, which part of this is sarcasm (/s)? 😄
