I wish… Doesn’t seem likely but I’m hoping for knocking him down to minority government.

I’m counting on him calling an election being badly perceived. He’s not in the position Trudeau is. LPC is already at the bottom. The only way is up.

A chance to knock him down to a minority? Bring it on! He looks a bit unshakeable but we’ll try anyways.

I apologize for centrist-slandering you. 😂

People bash centrism because centrism has allowed ever increasing wealth inequality that’s creating the material conditions for the fascism we see descending around us. Centrism is unsustainable. Many of us have realized how the process works and why the downward spiral can only be reversed by moving away from centrism. I’m not here to argue or discuss so please don’t reply defending it, it’ll be waste of time. 🥹 I’m explaining why you see centrism bashing comics.

Yes. I don’t remember which instance did this but I remember I encountered it some time ago.

Can vouch for this. I learned a thing or two from people who had the patience to explain. Including some ML people. @Cowbee@lemmy.ml for example has nerves of steel. Permanent snark isn’t useful but it’s understandable, especially coming from people who are being actively harmed. Repeating the same things over and over without frustration isn’t something everyone can do.

Are you aware that when they use the term liberalism, they likely mean economic liberalism?

And the harm reduction comes in the form of removing parts of the economy from capitalist control, which is … anti-capitalist.

Mainstream leftist parties aren’t necessarily leftist, especially economically leftist. E.g. the Democratic party in the US.

Our overton window is only a few degrees to the left of the US.

Also the Ontario Liberals conducted a UBI pilot in Hamilton during the 2010s with the goal of proposing some form of it as a policy if results were positive. The OLP lost to the PCs in 2018 and Ford canned the project.

Then there’s been the UBI experiment in Manitoba during the 70s.

I’m in Ontario with Meridian. Great experience for the 5 years I’ve been with them. Customer service is local. Branch people are decent.

Make a nice poster that encourages people to not just lurk, or dig one up if there’s an old post. Post it weekly in !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

100%! Been doing it for a year.

Also, I find a nice way to fill my feed is to liberally subscribe to communities on Lemmy. I’m currently subscribed to 133. I set my feed to Subscribed+Scaled and that works incredibly well to show me what I care about. Then when I get bored, I flip to All+TopDay to get what I missed that day.

Don’t get your hopes up yet. For now only EKOS is showing this swing. It’s an outlier and EKOS have been wrong before. Mainstreet from the 13th puts them at 26, up from 19 in December so perhaps there’s something to it. Cautiously optimistic but still taking it with a bucket of salt myself.

If they can deliver. But hey, we’re the VCs now. Not everything succeeds.

Fill every hole the US leaves open. I’d do the same if I were Xi.

I thought they’re removing posts with links.

He said some interesting stuff. He said that Gaza is practically a demolition site and that most people there are dead. I thought hasbara didn’t allow acknowledging the death and destruction.
