With a provincial election that left the BC NDP in government by a small margin, there’s no doubt that 2024 signalled a clear shift to the far-right with the expressed support of extreme candidates with extreme positions.

Everything: consistently shifts to the right since the 60-70’s.

Everything: gets worse every time it’s shifted right since the 60’s-70’s.

Everyone in the western world in the mid 2000’s: WE NEED TO SHIFT RIGHT EVEN HARDER

Is everyone just a fucking moron or what the fuck is going on?!

Far too many people who would rather not think too deeply of politics are also far too deeply invested in identity politics and following those parties that make them feel better.

Vanishingly few conservative voters below the Parasite Class actually understand how badly conservative policies are there just to fuck over the working class that they’re a part of.

It’s also why so much of conservative propaganda makes use of thought-terminating clichés.

Yeah, I have seen that exact same thing happen over in Europe "the conservative party fucked us over for xx years. Time to vote for the even harder right-wing populist." It makes me wonder what folks are thinking? Is this a "the only way out is through" mentality or am I missing something?

It’s also like 5 generations of capitalist propaganda.
