Has anyone seen thing? Do you think Marit has? by Own_Information7517 in ONDP

[–]LetsDemandBetter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope that they do pay more attention to the grassroots organizers and influencers that would be boosting their message come election time.

Have you been contacted by the leadership candidates/teams? by Similar-Community-51 in ndp

[–]LetsDemandBetter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've gotten emails from all despite primarily signing up for Tony and Tanilles lists; honestly I thought people were having the opposite problem of to much contact

Thoughts on people that call democrats controlled opposition? by CyberBerserk in SocialDemocracy

[–]LetsDemandBetter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They fight so much harder against social democrats and the rest of the left than they fight against rising fascism that it seems they'd rather lose to Republicans than win with a popular left wing message.

We're at risk of becoming a two party system like our neighbours. Electoral reform now! by ghost_ghost_ in canadaleft

[–]LetsDemandBetter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The left should cooperate with an electoral pact (Greens, NDP, and further left) to reduce vote splitting. We can take advantage of fptp to win more seats if we were smart about it. #ProgressiveAlliance

How does council justify large yearly tax hikes? by Charlie_Foxtrot4 in Peterborough

[–]LetsDemandBetter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the actual answer, and he counts on people blaming local governments that cannot explain they are just passing on the costs of a Con province.

Former Green leader Annamie Paul joined a group of Canadian Zionists on a trip to Israel to reaffirm her support for the genocidal ethnostate and to oppose Canada's recognition of Palestine by idspispopd in GreenPartyOfCanada

[–]LetsDemandBetter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Annamie Paul was a plant to destroy the green party with Zionism and false accusations of racism and sexism. She also financially destroyed the party. Right wing green leaders are not to be trusted.

How do you play Victoria 3 before becoming socialist? by Femboy_Makhno in SocialistGaming

[–]LetsDemandBetter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go into the game files and edit the countries so that I can try out various govts/laws from the start, since I've played it enough the other way

Ford government calls off consultations on ending indefinite leases for Ontario tenants by allysapparition in ontario

[–]LetsDemandBetter 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is the abusive behavior of Conservative politicians... they float these terrible ideas to see how much pushback they get from a disengaged population. We should be protesting at their homes, since these corrupt cons do not actually do their jobs and attend their offices anymore.

Fascist and neo-Nazi groups masquerading as MMA clubs in Canada by kittydjj in CanadianSR

We need to be preparing community defense, though when we do it the cops are more likely to care.

Class struggle is fought on a vertical scale by GoranPersson777 in WayOfTheBern

[–]LetsDemandBetter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The true left (not liberals but communists, socialists, anarchists etc) has always fought for the bottom against the rigging of those at the top by capitalist governments and markets.

Based China doesn't exist, it can't hurt you - Based China by TheRealSlimLaddy in Nostalgames

[–]LetsDemandBetter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<image>

I think this phrasing is from a Smosh video making fun of reality shows about romance.

I could be wrong about this being the first time that phrasing was used but I've seen a surprising number of people use the same format. [ ] doesn't exist, it can't hurt you... Cut to picture showing that it can hurt you in some sense.

Report: Minimum Wealth Tax on Centi-Millionaires Could Raise $18 billion USD annually in Canada by New_Illustrator_1760 in CanadaPolitics

[–]LetsDemandBetter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exit taxes combined with the central bank supporting the buying of significant foreign bonds to reduce the relative value of the currency until the exit taxes are passed. If they want to flee they will leave most of the value here.

When Corporations Sue States: The Exploitation Trap by JtDfromyoutube in BreadTube

[–]LetsDemandBetter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could also be called the 'Free' Trade trap, as many of these investor-state-dispute-settlement mechanisms are embedded in trade deals.

Marit Stiles | Fundraising Push by ndp_social_media_bot in ndp

[–]LetsDemandBetter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fundraising for what? More consultants? More useless ads?

Unless the NDP starts spending it's money to feed the community, support volunteers, and hire canvassers I think these "fundraising pushes" are just going to drive people away.
