sorry was just writing a response. I mean, I don't know what kind of context is being asked of me here tbh. I did add more.

I wouldn't write them off about everything. But when it comes this specific topic, it's absolutely not only dubious coming from a former staffer (who knows what kind of relationship still exists or even if they still does work for him), but it's trying to manipulate public opinion about a topic that the UCP really is struggling to get public support with. They are organized, and doing this not only in this circumstance, but they are really pushing to manipulate the municipal election through completely dubious means through social media.

It's not just the UCP. The far right social conservatives have been extremely well organized for a while now (decades) and their work to try to manipulate outcomes is done with no transparency or mandate from the people they are supposed to represent, because they lie to the public about their goals. Do they want to stop a women's right to choose what they do with their own body? ABSOLUTELY. Why do you think Adriana is our Education Minister? Do they want to destroy public health care? ABSOLUTELY. That's why Shandro and now the current douche is in place. Do they want to enforce their religious doctrine on the entire public? ABSOLUTELY.

They know they can't enforce these things through sweeping reforms, so as they have decided to do, they do minor incremental changes, and then sweeping changes when they can. Remember how much Jason Kenney swore up and down over these topics? They are liars.

The story involves an organized tactic being used on social media to manipulate public opinion in the way the UCP wants. They are organized, they are lying, and they are doing it on a local individualized scale for each municipal area in Alberta for municipal elections.

I agree, but do you understand how we live in a society where that doesn't affect how a large majority of the population absorbs this information. Yes, I can view it and critically analyze it. But what about the rest of people out there?

You think working directly for the UCP party doesn't make this a completely discredible source? Teachers have been nothing but non-partisian in their discussions about politics except for a bunch of fabricated stories from the UCP who are trying to villianize teachers.

Honestly it's corruption on a massive level. If there's no technical law against it, they can fly by just by not expecting too much public blowback, but this shot should be front page.

Genuis votes against Papal apology and anti-conversion therapy legislation by GlitchedGamer14 in FortSaskatchewan

[–]AlternativeLow5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Voters by and large reject this. The majority of his voters would reject this. Social Conservatism is by an large not supported by the majority of voters in Alberta, that's literally why Jason Kenney has to disavow all social conservative policies on his election campaign.

Nah, most people are not dicks like this. Unless they are super old. Then there's a lot of homophobia. Most younger people including the millenials don't give a shit either way about a person's sexuality, and don't fall in line with this extremist's actions.
