If you don't understand how the alt-right pipeline works then you won't understand how we stop Pierre Poilievre. What alt-pipeline offers is hope, and community. Criticizing PP does not get people either of those things. Convincing people that PP is bad won't make them want to vote for the other failing parties.
Unless we run candidates who can offer hope, without the bigotry, PP wins. Join me in forming a new party.

We need is a party that does politics differently. We need to be bold and unafraid. We need real solutions. I think we should push for the following things:

  1. Break up of the oligopolies including #loblaws.
  2. Repeal of the Notwithstanding clause.
  3. Tax reforms so housing is not an investment.
  4. Real privacy laws.
    If you have ideas please share them.
    We also need to distance ourselves from toxic "leftists". We can save democracy only if we work together. All are welcome.

@505fred what are the "toxic left" ideas you want to steer clear of?

@johnefrancis
People who make fun of people for dropping out, people who are lying and saying Doug Ford is letting people drop out, people who refuse to condemn OSSTF for supporting ageist policies, people who are bigots (primarily ageism is what I see). Those are the toxic people we must avoid. These people only push people towards PP.

@johnefrancis
Yes, and forgot to include advocating for voter suppression in my list.

@505fred how do you see these as linked to the left? Because the OSSTF dependant benefits stop at 21/25? Is that what it's about?

@johnefrancis
I've seen "leftists" push for all of those things.
As for my criticism of OSSTF are based on their opposition to children having control over their own education based on their support of "Learning to Age 18", which despite the name has done irreparable harm to trust in the public school system. That policy took away 16 and 17 year olds ability to control their own education. They also never called out that policy for trying to throw more students in jail.
