Leaders 'never bound' by Conservative party members' policy ideas: Pierre Poilievre
On the eve of his first policy convention as Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre reminded Canadians that he is not bound by the policy ideas the grassroots membership chooses to advance.
In Canada specifically, the actual right-wingers get thrown out of the conservative party. Can I point to any real right-winger anywhere in any politics of any place? Not really because I only pay attention enough attention to Canadian and American politics, both of which don't allow for it. Canada made the Proud Boys for example a terrorist organization. Why? Because they were growing in membership in Canada. You think Canada would actually let any right-winger organize? The government would label them terrorists in a heartbeat.
I agree, which is why I think the whole thing is a joke that we even pretend the conservatives are conservatives. If they're mainstream the Conservatives will inevitably stab us in the back for their own benefit because they're liars and if they're outside the system they're inevitably a glowie op just like the proud boys are. Which also makes it kind of ironic that Canada made it a terrorist organisation at all.
Why do you think the Proud Boys are a glowie op?
No they actually are, it was in a court case, a bunch of them got ousted as feds quite recently and the ones who weren't went to jail, classic January 6th style situation. This is why I never trust a 'right wing' group outside of the system that does street protests etc. and doesn't face state harassment on the level that Tommy Robinson does.
The leader got sentenced to prison though. I might have thought the same as you if he hadn't while others were. It sounds more like they were infiltrated.
The feds are in every organization. There were commies in the Nazis and Nazis in the commies. There's Chinese feds in the USA government and Jewish feds in the Russian government. It's how all their organizations operate. Just because there were feds in the proud boys doesn't mean they were a glowie op.
