Weird how young men who identify as ‘centrists’ always turn out to be conservative.

And why do you think that is? Does everyone not want their entire city to be full of Indians?

Curious/disturbing that his look is hipster strolling down Main St on a Saturday.

jenstden.bsky.social•2 days ago

I watched every single video he made 🙃

hate this 4 u

jenstden.bsky.social•2 days ago

I'm thinking of knitting him a new toque, that parasocial relationship is an alarming phenomenon

michaelledgerlomas.bsky.social•2 days ago

I would think that a little goes a long way

Ouch.

He's a racist POS. Perfect BC Con.

lesundini.bsky.social•2 days ago

I wish this surprised me. But BC Cons being racists and liars is so baked in that we're becoming like americans and Trump "oh, it's just who they are." and not facing the harm to society from it.

constanceont.bsky.social•2 days ago

Seems all Cons provincially and federally! Yet every MP signs an OATH to uphold democracy, and every Conservative tries like hell to destroy it. imo

Robin Skies' TikTok response to the story, saying he was never paid by the BC Conservative Party to make content.

(honestly? He should be paid, much of his political content is really effective and he's obviously quite good at connecting with his audience)

Guy thinks that whether he is paid or not is the relevant point here?

FWIW - If he was working for a caucus he was likely getting paid by the taxpayer.

Would love to hear Rustad’s non-answer to this one. 😒 #bcpoli

gregeh.bsky.social•2 days ago

Don't care if I get dragged for this, his posts about NYE that blew up... he's not wrong! It's an observable reality! Listen to women when they tell you what demographics are a problem for getting creeped or groped!

Was easy to guess he was conservative op tho.

As a woman in Vancouver, it’s white men in Conservative politics that make me feel deeply unsafe and it’s white men on Granville late at night I am am most fearful of, particularly the ones in police uniforms.

jenstden.bsky.social•2 days ago

If that's true, I'd argue there are better ways of dealing with it than riling up more racism against a group that's already a target of ongoing online and in-person racism.

brandonyan.com•2 days ago

Would argue this is more about his anti-immigration agenda than actually women's safety and well-being, too. Kinda like men pretending to care about women's sports but they just hate trans people.

A tried and true grift. Just a less subtle Douglas Todd really

gregeh.bsky.social•2 days ago

Congrats tho on this good scoop, I didn't guess he was a staffer because he was using real face, I figured he was just Some Guy getting funnelled Canada Proud money.

bazookajoe204.bsky.social•2 days ago

Are women incapable of being racist?

grhoda.bsky.social•2 days ago

I've been creeped/groped by more white canadian men than any other demographic, so maybe worry about that group Greg. Canada's violent misogyny problem is not new, nor limited to a few communities.

corinnesh.bsky.social•2 days ago

Makes sense. The BC Conservatives embrace phony liars
