So…

As I predicted, UCP have changed the law so corporations and the wealthy can influence and buy the next election.

I said we couldn’t wait until the next election because the UCP would fix the results.

I hope people recognize the truth since it’s biting them in the ass now.

How many anti democratic bills need to be passed before the public realizes we no longer live in a true democracy.

This is called guided democracy.

So if Koch industries purchases 10,000 memberships in each riding, do you think they’ll mind if the people they are bought for vote against Koch interests when choosing a candidate? Especially if a little incentive is also provided.

Welcome to autocracy by UCP, Kenney and his corrupt kleptocratic cabal.

We could have stopped this by forcing them out before this was an issue.

Thank your lucky stars you trusted democracy and the democratic process.

Yes that was extreme sarcasm. I’m pissed.

I spent five years warning people this was coming.

Who’s the fu**ing conspiracy theorist now?!

I swear the public is apathetic and lazy. It’s too much goddamn effort to actually use democratic means like protests and strikes. Just let the MLAs sort it out.

Do you think the moderate Good Germans had the same attitude? Let the communists and Nazis battle it out. Why get involved in democracy. I’m too busy working to get involved in politics?

You think your mortgage and car payments are going to be paid under a fascist regime?

Only if you support the fascist regime outright. The rest of us will be increasingly targeted. We had an opportunity to shift the balance of power.

That’s gone now.

Unless you convince the people who never vote to vote, we’re stuck with fascism in perpetuity.

It was 36 years of one party rule last time. 1935-1971. Social Credit were also fond of eugenics and fascism expressed by the Hitler Nazis. Them a 44 year stint with one party PCs.

Will Albertans EVER learn? IDK!

UCP just consolidated power by giving the nameless & faceless unending ability to provide fund for UCP coffers and paved the way for corporate influence and control of the Alberta government.

Need money? Just hike the membership fees.

It’s not like the wealthy can’t afford it.

I’m so tired of shouting into the wind.

I saw this coming in 2016. Started warning about it late 2017. That’s 4 years of almost daily warnings of fascism, corruption, Dominionist Christian demands for theocracy, connecting the dots, extensive reading and written analysis.

And all I got was a target on my back and a reputation for being hyperbolic and conspiratorial.

I’m not the fool. I saw this hundreds of miles out. But I am the idiot who believed evidence would convince people.

The left condemns UCP supporters for ignoring science and facts for covid.

Take a look in the mirror.

The left is no better ignoring facts, behaviours and ideology that has shunted us into guided democracy. For years. Placing hope in democracy.

Democracy is rule by the people. Those people are the citizens of Alberta who abdicated responsibility for removing a corrupt governing political regime while waiting for a hero.

No hero came. No one saved us.

Because in a democracy, you are the hero.

Take a bow. Ta da.

Now we have entrenched corporatism & a fascist regime.

That’s much harder to get out of power.

But hey, WTF do I know!

I can’t keep banging my head against a brick wall and expecting a different result.

I want to scream I’m so frustrated. I think I will. For all the good it will do. 🤯🤬

F*ck you to all the minimizers and doubters who didn’t review history. This was so obvious and predictable I could have predicted it years ago.

Oh wait! I did you f*ckers!

You’re welcome!
