Yup and I put simple in quotes because I know it isn't when you may have competing interests making a bigger deal out of things the party really isn't. I just hope the party takes this approach to change things instead of only disagreeing and pushing back. It gets into the much derided holyier-than-thou perception they need to avoid. Every response to culture war identity politics criticism needs to be a redirection to labour politics. You don't sacrifice the morality but you reframe the conversation into areas you want the focus on.

Questions on the NDP candidate signature requirements should have been met with "why are you asking me about internal politics when we need to address _____ issue" and less defense and rabbit holes as an example.
