    People only ever care once something affects them personally

    Highlighted the usual Conservative Projection™ for you.

      Sorry but I don’t get the point of your comment. Are you saying only conservatives exhibit this behavioural pattern? Cause I’d have to strongly disagree on that point.

      And just for you, the last election I voted NDP. The one before that I voted Libs. And before that I didnt bother. So get lost with your bullshit generalizations. I’m far from a conservative but I also think people blindly voting a color is dumb and wish parties were not listed on ballots.

        Was it a bullshit generalization? Sure. I’ve seen the “doing a lot of projection without realizing it” mostly - but not exclusively - from those considered “right wing”, but they’re not the only one doing it. I’m sure I’ve been guilty of it at a time or another, but if you ask everyone that spouts bullshit generalization to “get lost”, given that

        People only ever care once something affects them personally

        Is also a bullshit generalization, I’d say we should both get lost.

        Not together, evidently.
