Poilievre called trans health care "a divisive wedge" that's being used by the Liberal government to "distract..."

Classic Poilievre, disagree with him on the state banning life saving medical care and you're the one being divisive and causing distractions.

I'm honestly sick of people like Pierre calling everything that isn't about dollars a distraction, there is more to life than money, like human rights and healthcare for example, the things he wants to trample all over.

It's only divisive because conservatives have made it a big issue.

Fucking thank you for saying this. Trans people are out here, just trying to survive and have basic rights. Conservatives have decided to have a full-out snowflake meltdown over this.

Any transphobes reading this: I'm sure you're tired of hearing about trans issues in the news. But I can assure you, you're nowhere near as tired of it as trans people are.

It's their test case for abortion. You know their base would do anything to get it in. With the notwithstanding clause they could get it even if the supreme court rules it unconstitutional.

Wait until he too starts calling everything he doesn't like "woke"

He is just about there now calling this Trudeau's 'radical ideology'

What kind of fantasy world do you have to live in to see Justin Trudeau as too radical? Either PP is knowingly making shit up for votes or he's out of touch with reality. Neither qualifies him to lead the country.

[-] DigitalTraveler42@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

The answer is a.) Out of touch with reality or b.) Purposely using this type of wording because it works and furthers his, and the larger global Right wing's agenda, or c.) Just a grifter using grifter speak because it works on pretty much any right winger.

I'm leaning towards B or C.

Either PP is knowingly making shit up for votes or he's out of touch with reality.

Both can be true at the same time.

Laughs in NDP... you think the Liberals are radical? The Liberals are milquetoast when it comes to anything important.

He'll get there soon enough i guess...
