Did everyone notice how this election wiped out all the previous leaders and now we're faced with being introduced to a new crowd of political leaders.

Elizabeth May with the Green Party is the only one still standing.

We've had Conservative governments nearly half the time. Somehow democracy and progress continued. Fascism doesn't have ideas so much as it's the antithesis of compromise and democracy.

They're both right-wing, but there's a huge difference between going to mosque and ISIS, or trusting the police and thinking they shouldn't have to follow any rules.

…and yet there is a reason theAlt-right pipeline exists, but not an alt-left.

Being a stepping stone ideology on the path to facism alone should give a normal person pause to critically think about their direction in the first place.

Again, don’t aggrandize Conservatism.
