Studies suggest that con ideologies often appeal to individuals who possess a higher psychological need for order, structure & certainty, aka fascistic tendencies. Neuroimaging suggests that cons may have a larger right amygdala, associated with processing threat & emotional responses.

The modern conservative mindset: "The "ethic" of the criminally minded refers to a specialized, alternative moral framework—often called a "subcultural code" or "criminal ethos"—that rationalizes, justifies, and governs behaviors that violate mainstream laws." and people continue to vote for that

Actual conservativism in 🇨🇦 died with the disastrous merge of Reform/Alliance and the ashes of Brian Mulroney/Stephen Harper's destruction of the Progressive Conservatives. It's now just a bunch of Maple MAGA nutters.

Pfff no shit Sherlock.. you could not pay me billions, trillions to go there. Shame on you BC. You gonna recruit pp now?

It can't all fall to Eby. The guy elected here didn't show up anywhere to answer questions. He's a "man of faith" that heads the men's group at his church. I'd like to know what all that means but he's been nowhere to answer questions. People vote against things or a person, not FOR anything.

Canadian Conservativism has been "let's give up our sovereignty to become a vassal state of the US" for decades now. So of course they still consider the US an ally: they define "ally" as "owner".

Mulroney repeatedly debasing himself before Reagan. I still cringe even thinking of them singing “when Irish eyes are smiling“. Every conservative since has been more than prepared to be a toady for them.

that's conservatives for you.. however, considering that almost all provinces are being governed by conservatives, that is not very promising for the future. provincial voters vote in federal relations, and if this pattern follows, future is bleak.
