The Guardian · Coalition coy on curriculum changes despite Dutton’s claims of student ‘indoctrination’By Caitlin Cassidy

Addressing in order of presentation...

Single-use plastics: a nothing issue that he hopes to use as a culture-war cudgel to distract from his position (or lack of one) on real issues. Exactly like Trump with his "make our toilets/showers/appliances great again" BS.

Accompanying media: can't have that. He can only deliver prepared remarks to reporters. If he has to speak extemporaneously, he immediately comes across as the creep that he is [1], and he might accidentally say something true about his policy ambitions which the public wouldn't like.

4 media questions: stamina. Lying is tiring.

Cherry-picking media: can't have a media that's actually calling you out on your BS, or asking difficult questions you don't want to address in public. Pick safe, domesticized media outlets.

[1] He's creepy in the same way J.D. Vance is. My standard analogy is he seems like the guy who hangs around in the gym parking lot to try to talk to that woman who wouldn't remove her headphones when he wanted to talk to her during her workout.

Just had a #Conservative party canvasser at my door, asking if they could "count on my support".

I said "Not a chance. Poilievre is a piece of shit."

I like getting the opportunity to be brutally honest with people acting in bad faith (which is a fair description of the CPC under PP).

"Well, okay then!" she said in a chipper tone, and turned and hightailed it off my front porch.

If the conservatives win the next election in Canada I expect to see abortion criminalized, private insurance health care like the USA, more private religious schools, tax breaks for the wealthy, and racism and white supremacy and fascism and misogyny to increase. This is why they are being called #MapleMAGA and the #FreedumbClownvoyParty and it is why you see hashtags like #NeverVoteConservative and #SquintyMcProudBoy and #trumpLIte and #SkinnyTrump
