Love it. Best description of the socialist's policies I've heard. [icon_lol2.gif] [icon_lol2.gif]

He has a point. The moderate left used to focus very strongly on helping the downtrodden. Currently the focus seems to be primarily on virtue signalling. Funny how all that virtue signalling too often comes at the expense of the poorest among us, and of the environment. So yes, envy could explain why there seems to be so much more effort given to dragging "others" down than to actually helping anyone up.

What about parroting the federal Liberals and stating "You can only have this job based on your genitals"

Your version of inclusion is odd.

or parroting the BC NDP - "you can only run for nomination if you have the right genitals, sexual orientation and skin colour". You are correct that the Left babbling on about "inclusion" is totally laughable and hypocritical. And disgusting.
