Conservatives. The type that don't support abortion because "think of the children!", but fly flags on their vehicles that say "Fuck Trudeau" with children walking down the sidewalk and sitting in the cars beside them.

I thought this sort of extremism was more of a feature of the States, but to think that it had infected our country as well to such a degree. The hilarious thing is that it was the religious figures that were originally pro-choice decades ago and were one of the deciding factors why abortions were originally legalized.

It's hard to imagine that this is considered a right wing issue rather than something radical, but more and more it feels like the right are defining themselves through the act of degrading personal freedoms and rolling back the clock wherever they can to the Victorian era.

Because conservatives are/represent and are voted for by religious fundamentalists.

The funny thing about religious fundamentalists is their beliefs frequently outright contradict the written word of their religion...

That's a side effect of them not actually reading that book they claim is the "most important words ever written".

O'Toole got voted out of the conservative leadership because of social conservatives. This is just the cumulation of that.
