Re: Alberta
"Modern" is not the best choice of words when it comes to conservative politics, especially in Alberta. Like Kenney, they're still living in the past and think they can bring back the gravy days of $100+/bbl oil and everyone in the province pulling down six digits. I watched workers dumping on Notely and Trudeau and cry about their paycheques, looking the other way while Kenney keeps up his anti-union/pro-corporate program. Kenney is all about "an angry voter is not a thinking voter", the basis of "modern" conservatism.

A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices.

Re: Alberta
It's actual "modern" progressives (regressives who have terrible policies that cause nothing but mass human suffering like Alberta saw under the NDP) who are rotten to the core. They already have become a blight and a pestilence everywhere they have been, and disgusting as well. They need to stop causing so much pain on our society, and go do what they do best, collect welfare and do absolutely nothing.

Re: Alberta
It's definitely true that the evil and corrupt UCP government under Kenney is a blight on Alberta, who are causing so much pain on our society. Watching the disgusting UCP government collect corporate welfare at the expense of Albertan families is yet another reason why the much more competent Notley NDP government will kick the UCP sorry butts to the curb.The Green Barbarian wrote: ↑Jan 25th, 2022, 8:17 am They already have become a blight and a pestilence everywhere they have been, and disgusting as well.

Alberta Premier Kenney's approval rating plummets in new ThinkHQ poll
https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/alberta-prem ... -1.5610896More than 1,100 respondents gave their opinion on the Kenney's leadership, with only 22 percent of offering any degree of approval for the first-term premier............
“Jason Kenney is a leader on life-support, and his prognosis is not good,” said ThinkHQ president Marc Henry.
“We have not seen a sitting premier with numbers this low in almost a decade.”
Ouch!! I'm thinking Albertans are wishing for those glorious Rachel Notley days.

Re: Alberta
And yet if its clear that the only "non-thinking" voters are the ones voting for Notley and the NDP in Alberta. No one who sits down to think things through would ever vote NDP, they are a blight and a pestilence.
This election, vote ABLNDP - anyone but those scumbag NDP or scumbag Liberals.

Re: Alberta
LOL - again with the stupid polls. As we saw in the federal election, polls are really meaningless. Even though it's fun when you see loser political figures like Joe Biden falling to basically a zero approval rating, it's still a long way to the next election so who really cares.
They are experiencing the Rachel Notley glory days right now, with her being as far away from power as possible, where she and her gang of baristas and Hugo Chavez-wannabe meat-heads should be.Ouch!! I'm thinking Albertans are wishing for those glorious Rachel Notley days.

Re: Alberta
This is absolutely true, which is why the only people still desperately clinging to the blight of the disastrous Kenney are "non-thinking" voters. No one who sits down to think things through would ever vote UCP as they've proven completely incompetent.

Seems to me GB, that there really isn’t that many true blue ‘conservatives’ left in this world anymore. However, some want change just for the sake of change but give no quarter to ever actually improving a given situation.The Green Barbarian wrote: ↑Jan 25th, 2022, 8:17 am

What I see is that almost everyone buys into the notion of moving forward and improving society. What we think is the best approach to get there is the issue. i.e.
Right Wing = pragmatic, calculated progressivism
whereas;
Left wing = emotional, feel good progressivism.

That's Darwinism at work.

This is true, Ka-El.
Yet after decades of predominately emotional, feel-good style of progressivism, we still see people trying to convince us we just need to ramp up the emotional, feel-good progressivism. These folk really don't seem to realize we are not going to solve anything using the same kind of emotional, feel-good progressivism thinking shaped where we are now.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.

Re: Alberta
I don't think anyone with a brain would label the trucker pity parade as 'progressivism', despite the overly emotional rhetoric about 'freedoms'. These trucker pity parade folks don't seem to realize they're not going to solve anything using the same kind of emotional, hate-filled "progressivism" thinking that makes the vast majority of Canadians hold their noses at the un-Canadian Maverick/Wexit party and their board of grifters.rustled wrote: ↑Jan 25th, 2022, 11:08 am Yet after decades of predominately emotional, feel-good style of progressivism, we still see people trying to convince us we just need to ramp up the emotional, feel-good progressivism.

Re: Alberta
Yes, by now we're all aware of your propensity to displace responsibility for negative outcomes due to decades of neoliberal policy to so-called progressive policies. This is a very popular strategy from the far right but more and more people are starting to see through this facade as well.rustled wrote: Yet after decades of predominately emotional, feel-good style of progressivism, we still see people trying to convince us we just need to ramp up the emotional, feel-good progressivism.
