i guess only racists support social systems. racial equality means we can all compete equally on the market, right?

(psst: that's called neo-liberalism)

do you know where this guy came from? he built his career on opposing the sex-ed curriculum, on the backs of votes from insular religious communities that don't want their kids to know that queer people exist.

this is becoming standard, nowadays: these parties that used to represent the left have become the voice of disenfranchised brown conservatives, because they were the only parties that would sign them up.

my understanding is that jagmeet singh remains third or fourth in polls in the race, and that despite the establishment talking points, he is still a longshot candidate. but, take note of what the party is doing, here - because it will do it again, and it might work next time.
