Poilievre and the Conservatives have a ‘wokeism’ problem

Wokeism is the dumbest shit conservatives have pushed since I’ve been alive. And I’m fucking old.

JFC. I can't believe there are still folks out there that fall for this crap.

Bit of a fucking treason problem as well.

Aside from the more direct damage that would be done by denying funding to research for "transgenic" mice, corporations paying lip service to DEI ideals less often, and people no longer doing ritualistic "land acknowledgement" statements — the larger effect will be the same as we've seen with Trump: The bigots will be emboldened. The racists will believe they now have license to be as racist as they can be, loudly and in public. The noise level will increase, the people will fight each other for stupid reasons that are irrelevant to the people in power, and things will generally get worse.
