Seeing comments on the cbc and elsewhere there appears to no hope for the average Canadian retard. Communities like this one are tiny and aren't found elsewhere. Compare with USA for example and although the majority are brainwashed covidiots, there is a large chunk of the population that isn't and that translates into many millions of free thinking skeptics. Seems to me that Canada and Germany are the most brainwashed western nations but Canada has, in sheer numbers, the smallest count of non-conformists by far.

This perception of Canadians being cucks is not necessarily true. 33% of registered Canadian voters did not vote in 2019 and if you look, nearly 1% of votes cast were spoiled ballots. There's people like me who fucking hate SJWs but who aren't socially conservative and so they will never vote Tory even if they won't vote Liberal or NDP either. A lot of young people especially don't vote. We largely realize that politics is a scam and politicians are there mostly to enrich themselves and their family and inner circle. Rather than to serve the public.
If I started my own political party that I feel would resonate with my generation more (this idea that millennials are mostly SJWs is bullshit. Only the ones who vote are majority Liberal/NDP. Most of us don't vote), I'd be thrown in jail for "hate speech" or Antifa would firebomb my house or carbomb me. So as long as the culture is sick and our Charter of Rights and Freedoms was written by Pierre Trudeau (which includes inciting hatred as not protected speech. Which is totally up to the judge's interpretation), Canadian politics is a scam.
Reddit might make you feel otherwise but the truth is a lot of young people are sick of the media shaming us for wanting to have a social life and fuck people during COVID. As well as continue our schooling, further our careers. Sick of people expecting us to sacrifice our lives for the elderly and sick. Millennials and zoomers are low-key small-l libertarians. It's just most of us don't vote so people assume we're SJWs.
This is encouraging to hear.
Can confirm as a 23 going on 24 year old lots of guys my age are sick of this shit too.
I have to say, I identify in the same category as you, more or less. Trudeau or Harper, for example, are both globalist croneys to me, though the former was better for Canadian's prosperity in Canada. I could not vote for any party I see today in Canada. IMO Jack Layton was murdered (sudden radiation-induced terminal cancer was an almost common murder method developed in the 50's) because his party was sure to win the next election and, if you look into it, he had significant stances that can be considered anti-establishment. For example, about the absurd interest rates on credit cards fleecing Canadians.
I hope you're right!
Probably because Harper didn't want to alienate the pro-choice and LGBT crowd in his Big Tent. As there are pro-choice and LGBT people who dislike the Liberals and NDP. I don't envy the job of politicians. Even if I find politicians to largely be corrupt. Because you have to make very calculated decisions with regards to policy to form a big enough tent to win a governing mandate.
I am pro-gun so I actually wouldn't have minded if the Tories relaxed gun laws. lol. "Assault rifle" bans and handgun bans really just ensures that only criminals, police and military have guns. Other than John Tory, I don't know of too many Tories who are anti-gun. But maybe enough of them exist to have influenced Harper.
Harper was afraid of alienating people in his Big Tent. Harper muzzled a ton of people in his party because he was terrified of losing his governing mandate. As someone who is an atheist, pro-choice, part-gay, I wouldn't be able to smile through my teeth hearing a Tory go off about atheists, abortion or faggots (the type of social conservatives that Harper would muzzle). If someone doesn't like me, I am not going to cry to big daddy government to throw them in jail or call up their employer to get them fired like the SJWs do. But I'm also not going to like those people either. This is why the Liberals, NDP and Democrats act with a lot of arrogance towards minorities and LGBT. Because they feel like we got no choice but to vote for them. Joe "you ain't black" Biden.
I also can't smile through my teeth hearing a SJW speak either. lol. The problem is that Liberals and NDP are allowing the SJWs to run the asylum. Corporate executives are also bending the knee to the SJW mob. There's something with SJWs where they never had to get a thick skin growing up or something. And I'm technically still a millennial. Mid-80s. I don't know where these snowflakes come from. In my youth, I had to grow a thick skin against bullies.
I always like reading your comments and think we are politically similar in a lot of ways. I'm also millennial.
The Woke SJW infection came from a combo of elements. Hyperparenting coddling for the last 30-40 years and a lack of purpose and meaning during that same period as seculariam took hold. The Coddling of the American Mind by Jonathan Haidt is a great book on where these crazies came from.
As an agnostic person that has never liked religion I was happy with secularism gaining hold. But it is clear to me now that too many people are not able to exist without it. They need it on a DNA level. The Wokeists just naturally created a new one out of far left concepts. They fight so hard, claiming to fight for oppressed people it makes them feel like the ultimate compassionate people. The best people alive. I call them Woke Supremacists because they are certain in their hearts they are superior to anyone who disagrees with the ideology.
I think what we need is a new kind Western enlightenment values religion. One that is there for the secular people and the believers.
