Entrenched in corporate mire. Glad he stepped down. Unfortunately there’s no good viable options that aren’t status quo.

The mean girls won.

Instead you’re going to get an extreme right-wing conservative that will make life objectively worse, as they always do.

That’s a pretty decent definition for Liberal actually.

Yeah, that’s the damned party idealogy.

I’ll never see his name without hearing the chant in my head

It’s always weirded me out people acted like he was progressive.

It always weirded me out how people just repeated Russian propaganda.

First Nations, those famous Russians.

Given the fact that the first people entered the Americas through the Bering Bridge… maybe?

Zorque@lemmy.world on 09 Jan 03:32 collapse

A lot of people were hopeful, and a lot of people wanted him to seem progressive, so they could lean further right with less pushback.

boaratio@lemmy.world on 09 Jan 02:38 next collapse

So he’s like one of our Democrats?

LostWon@lemmy.ca on 09 Jan 04:44 collapse

Yes, Canada’s Liberal party is pretty much equivalent to the US Democratic party in many ways.

It feel like it’s impossible to get sufficient compaign funding without compromising policy in favour of corporate interests

Surprise! Guess who really runs the world?

That would be less evil than the reality.
