With a steady lead in the polls and a healthy war chest of political donations, the Conservative Party is rolling out a trio of new advertisements that are being viewed as aiming to redefine and soften Pierre Poilievre’s image and messaging.

Is this like when Stephen Harper tried to demonstrate he that he was a real human?

Oh gawd. I’d forgotten about that.

What a fucking embarrassment he was.

“farewell, fellow human, son of mine, in this authentically staged photo-op as you go to human-school. actual-humans exchange human emotions through a physical gesture of some sort. perhaps a handshake? yes. a handshake. the human photographers will surely document this actual-human interaction between myself (a human) and my son (also, a human) and the people of this country will finally embrace me as an actual human.”

(narrator: humans don’t shake their sons’ hands when they drop them off for the first day of school…)

All fiscal Cons peddle the absolute same baloney, including Harper. And then we get the opposite.

Cons are liars, every single last one of them. Their whole philosophy is fundamentally provably false.

GOP also promises things it can’t keep. Budgets will be cut, and oh, look at that. People are still poor.

At least they won’t have healthcare anymore, right?

There is a reason why I can say Squinty McProudBoy and everyone knows whom I am talking about. His only concern is with his white supremacist “base” and his “Trudeau bad” as his only plan on governing Canada.

Is this true? I have disconnected myself from a lot of political media for the summer while working in the bush, and this caught me by surprise. What the fuck?

Yup. People are pissed at Trudeau and the Liberals so automatically turn to the Cons instead of, you know, the NDP or Greens … like we have a two-party system or something.

If people are pissed at Justin, it’s because Milhouse finally made his molehill into a mountain.

It seems to me people like PP because of their stance on inflation, which for most is the single biggest issue facing Canada today. Cons are proposing budget cuts, and the NDP are proposing a grocery store tax as solutions. People will probably be more favorable towards whichever solution they think will be the most effective.

Thanks. I guess I will have to try to mobilize more people to get off their ass and go vote. So many of the people I know just don’t care enough to vote. But maybe the bitcoin and convoy-fellation facts about this pile of shit will help motivate more.

I have no hope that it will… But if I don’t try, I will hate myself.

Remind them that there are exactly 0 safe CPC members now for abortion rights due to recent voting (yes, private member bills are still showing up to try and remove rights, but this time Squinty is in charge and all his members are allowed to vote ‘with their conscience’ now).

I tend to use this to help motivate people. That’s over half of them, and two years ago.

Conservatives are allowed to say dumb things.

Because of their base, and the way that it is.

Yes, he’s a garbage politician with no good ideas and no real world experience. He would’ve crashed our economy with his Bitcoin fiasco.

Literally stood at the side of the road and got his picture taken handing them Tim Hortons and thanking them for coming.
