When you retweet PCC “shadow ministers” denigrating the PM for not removing General Vance after the Admiral Norman fiasco that cons turned into a scandal, you don’t get to follow me or view my information. You get blocked.
Yes I meticulously vet followers.
People who pretend to have progressive values are political saboteurs.
Kind of like Vance was appointed as a saboteur to sexual abuse reform in the Canadian military. And Admiral Norman sabotaged LPC cabinet confidentiality within 30 days of LPC taking office.
Harper appointed several conservative loyalists in top bureaucrat positions.
Military, RCMP, Corrections, Procurement, INAC, CSIS, etc.
Many of these appointees have demonstrated insubordination and resistance to LPC approved policy changes.
It’s a national security threat.
Trump used the same strategy. Appointing agents of chaos to undermine institutions from within.
Harper has always been more strategic & stealthy than the brash and bombastic malignant narcissist Donald Trump.
Trump wanted the public to witness his corrupt actions openly.
Remember, Trump was not CNP’s first choice for the Republican Presidential candidate.
@anelsona details the deal that was struck between CNP and Trump in her book Shadow Network. CNP had wanted Ted Cruz as their candidate. Trump hijacked those plans using a populist appeal.
Harper installed loyalists in key positions to surreptitiously resist LPC governance. Preferring covert action and denial when called out.
A model of political reform which Jason Kenney and UCP have adopted in Alberta under the guidance of Harper.
Denial is Kenney’s motto.
There have been several examples of insubordination in the federal bureaucracy.
•Corrections refusing to implement ban on solitary confinement
•RCMP refusing to address systemic sexual harassment and racism.
•CSIS continuing to collect personal data on innocent Canadians.
But no mainstream media attention except to criticize LPC.
Union leaders documented this process, but the narrative was undermined & discounted. They had dared to challenge Harper.
Many had grave concerns about Harper’s misuse of the public service.
Harper used appointments to incrementally dismantle democratic institutions from the inside.
It is a well documented Seven Mountains Mandate strategy. Dominionist Christian subterfuge.
Gain power in key positions and undermine democratic process from inside. Reshape culture.
But few want to face that reality. Sounds too much like a conspiracy theory.
But we’ve all just witnessed Trump doing the exact same thing, representing the same type of Dominionist Christian Nationalists, in the US. The only difference is Trump openly bragged about it.
Harper didn’t brag. He carefully shaped his brand as a centre right conservative, but his actions were as destructive and ruinous to Canadian democratic institutions as Trump’s have been in the US.
Because Harper is a radical paleolibertarian, not a centrist conservative.
You want to know why LPC didn’t remove Vance? Because the public’s perception of Vance was positive and trusting. How partisan would it appear if PMJT had replaced every Harper appointed leader in the federal bureaucracy?
That’s the problem with public perception. Public support is required to clean house & purge loyalists.
But Canadians have thus far refused to acknowledge CPC is a Dominionist Christian Nationalist front group masquerading as a political party.
It sounds too “paranoid.”
Remember, Harper had 10 years to purge the bureaucracy of trustworthy non partisan leaders and lower level bureaucrats and install partisan loyalists who are realigning the bureaucracy to far right privilege. I witnessed this strategy from the inside. I was a federal bureaucrat.
Read the attached article. It’s accurate and is actually non partisan and objective regarding the attack on democracy.
Trump was an obvious bulldozer. Harper was and still is a strategic saboteur.
Jason Kenney and Doug Ford are similar political saboteurs seeking to dismantle democracy from the inside. Both were installed using Dominionist Christian and fossil fuel dark money. As described in Jane Mayer’s @JaneMayerNYer book Dark Money.
Similarly described in @kathsstewart Katherine Stewart’s book The Power Worshippers.
This has been researched, documented and published by several very credible investigative journalists.
Journalists forced to work as independents bc MSM has been co-opted by the far right.
I’ve been warning Canadians that Conservatives are not attempting to govern as a democratic political party for 3.5 years.
The same form of governance used in China & Russia to maintain power & control in perpetuity.
Recently adopted by former democratic nations, Hungary (Orban), Turkey (Erdogan), Georgia (Georgian Dream).
Installed, but ousted from power by Ukraine (Yanukovich), US (Trump).
These nations have installed bureaucratic loyalists & changed federal policies that favour ultra far right privilege, even if left wing parties are elected. Nancy Maclean @NancyMacLean5 described this model’s initial development in Chile’s military coup in 1973 lead by Pinochet.
Several nations have had various forms of Ordered Liberty and Guided Democracy thrust on them. Was this a planned refinement of “lite” autocracy favouring the far right?
This political model of perpetual far right power and control, irrespective of who is actually in government, using loyalist bureaucrats, and corrupted institutions, has been metastasizing across the globe.
Mostly ignored by Mainstream Media.
There is evidence of centralized coordination and assistance to install these religiously fundamentalist and radicalized far right “guided” democracies.
The International Democratic Union (IDU) has supported many “guided” democratic transitions expanding freedom & free markets.
The IDU has many tentacles across the globe, expanding guided democracy and ordered liberty to perpetually privilege the wealthy developers of fossil fuels and religiously ultra far right faithful.
Sorry Garnett, Nazi’s were NOT socialists. In fact the first people they murdered in concentration camps were communists and socialists. Martin Niemoller made a famous speech which Christian homeschooling may have glossed over.
History is well documented. Pushing a book by a prominent Republican revisionist of history whose effort to establish a mythical past about American exceptionalism is characteristic of fascist behaviour.
