#Wolfgang Kubicki ist ein verbaler #Randalierer und ein neolibertĂ€rer #Populist der Extraklasse. Den kann man nicht mehr fĂŒr voll nehmen. Aber ernst nehmen, als #Gefahr fĂŒr die #Demokratie muss man ihn schon. Die #FDP stĂŒrzt so weiter ab.

Contest for the populist vote | Democracy Sausage with Mark Kenny

#populist is #fascist if a purity test is involved.
Just saying. Pure anything is the complete absence of everything else.
"A #populist is a political figure, movement, or philosophy that claims to represent the interests, virtues, and uncorrupted will of ordinary citizens against a corrupt or self-serving elite and essentially divides society into two opposing camps: the "pure people" and the "corrupt elite"."
"The #populist right wants to cut taxes and, eager though it is to crack down on welfare “cheating,” it’s unwilling to squeeze the biggest and most expensive benefits. The populist left wants to vastly increase such benefits and pay for this and everything else by raising taxes only on the rich. Neither approach has the remotest chance of success. Which leaves “restructuring” through inflation or by other means — and brings attention back to the question of what’s fair."

If American #psyop propagandized #BC actually elects a #populist, #racist, faith based hate government we are truly in for a civil war on the West coast.

I rarely believe the polls though, as modern polls are often rigged by Right Wing owned media to push their dream narrative.

These #Populist Conservatives can’t see that the #MapleMAGA wave is breaking in the States and will soon break in #Canada.

I’m done with the prospect of a divisive Conservative government destroying the culture we have built while forcing their Christian ideals on the rest of BC.

If they manage to win by harnessing racial hate and anti lgbtq+ narratives, #BritishColumbia has truly chosen strife over peace, division over unity and populist hysteria over sanity.

Those of us left will respond in kind. Eff these populist, hate driven politicians. Their day in the sun is done, we will not let their cancer of hate destroy our province.

This isn’t about politics anymore, it’s about a culture war supported/created by #American interests, stoked by power hungry, desperate #Conservatives and supported by washed up former #Liberals helping them attain power.

This is what happens when the BC Liberal (United) party just admits they are cosplay Conservatives and line up to stack the deck against the Left.

We now NEED #ProportionalRepresentation or #RankedChoice voting to prevent an inevitable culture war, both Federally and Provincially.

Without it we will continue to fight each other, in turn opening the door to American fascists who will exploit that divide they helped create to further shatter our country’s resolve.

Stay strong BC, I still have hope in a better outcome but am preparing for the worst. Push back the hate or end up wallowing in it.
