Got my fave ice cream ready to grief eat because I'm pretty sure we are going to end up with a Conservative government in BC after this crappy, costly, unnecessary snap election 😔☹️😫
Eby fucked us all over.
Woke up, still super pissed off about BC snap election results. Still cussing Eby for screwing over BCers before quitting as leader. Eby should have been ousted as leader in 2020 or should have learned to work better with BC Green party for better government. His arrogance & BC NDP caucus cowardice led him to a massive self owned loss. A piss poor political decision that handed the Conservatives a majority BC government.
Less than 50% of registered voters showed up to vote. My riding flipped to Conservatives. Saanich South now has a Conservative Mayor & MLA. Rishi Sharma ran as a Liberal in past federal election but had since changed to Conservative.
Many provincial ridings flipped to Conservatives 😣 I'm in political mourning.
LD may be more progressive than the MapleMAGAs he's surrounded by but he's still a BC Conservative - we know full well it's a party full of bigots. Don't even try tell us that they're not bigots when several of us POC & several of us disabled/otherwise marginalized folks in BC have multiple personal experiences with Conservatives bigotry & their hateful politics 😡 Don't tell us to be happy that people who want us deported/dead/imprisoned are back in power again. We are sad/upset/frustrated/anxious. We remember how cruel BC Liberals were towards marginalized folks & how they had no respect for environment too. We're expecting the worse to come.
It's only a matter of time before the leopards start eating LD's face/they turn on each other/infighting for power starts up again. Conservatives always flip on each other.
It's only thing that brings me any ray of hope for BC, on a depressing post election Sunday morning.
This dismal snap election result is all goddamn arrogant Eby’s fault. #BCNewDeathParty killed itself.
@PhoenixSerenity it does not fill me with joy either
its a shame Green voters are so spread out. if they used proportional representation then they'd have more seats, 8 or 9
NDP are not clever people. perhaps they can work with Greens to block Conservatives but what a mess
BC Liberals suck
@PhoenixSerenity
I am so sorry. I've lived under fashy red state government pre Trump and of course everywhere is fashy now in the US. Nobody should be telling you that you have to pretend everything is okay. It's not. Let's hope a taste of Maple MAGA insanity wakes everybody up for the next election.
@MaryAustinBooks I'm most fearful of what 4 years of MapleMAGA leadership will do to BC's environment & also how many more social murders will occur under them. People more marginalized than me/my family are going to be the first targets 😟
@MaryAustinBooks I'm so pissed/sad for BC. I'm not going to be kind to anyone who tries to blame BC Green voters either. Millions of people never even voted! I voted for best candidate who promoted humanistic values/ethics/policy pitches that I believe in.
I haven't looked at any news yet this morning. I'll take my blood pressure before & after reading news. Just out of curiosity.
@PhoenixSerenity Here in Quebec City I'm in the only leftist district, and the rest is surrounded by conservatives. The provincial conservative party didn't exist 20 years ago. Among people who were elected, there are anti-vax people, 51st state enablers and a woman who called the party's chief the "great vibrator in chief".
I know how you feel. I hate this city.
@MelissaBearTrix We got a majority Conservatives government after provincial snap election today. Next few years will be hell for marginalized & climate.
Hugz ... That sucks ... Hugz
Let's hope the revolution happens soon ... Hugz
Hugz & xXx
@PhoenixSerenity Me too. My BP was over 178 yesterday at the doctor becasue i knew how stupid people were in this province.
it seem that people are incapable of learning anything. Greedy fucking rich people. I don't wish them well.
@PhoenixSerenity
Alas! There's always tomorrow, tomorrow...
@HeliosPi I already hate tomorrow too! Fucking Eby! Goddammit.
I will have to find some distraction tomorrow away from being angry at shitty snap election results & feeling doom!
@PhoenixSerenity Distractions, you say? I've made some changes to Que-Ra.
@PhoenixSerenity
Very understandable.
@PhoenixSerenity the biggest goof in political history
@PhoenixSerenity I can't imagine looking at the United States from Canada and saying 'That's exactly what we need.'
@noyes The next 4 years will be hell in BC 😫
I can't watch the election results anymore. I'm going to watch something funny & eat my ice cream.
Goddamn Eby 🤬
@PhoenixSerenity Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Unbelievable inability to read the room.
Chocolate chip mint.
@PhoenixSerenity we call that " m c squared" ice cream .... savor it in sadness ... wishing you didn't have to.
Going to bed.
Most of us are now mourning in BC.
We're dreading what Conservatives/MapleMAGA will do with a majority government in BC.
Goddamnit Eby.
