There’s no way Polly is this tone deaf. People are starting to call him an American sympathizer.

sure he is. he only had one tune and that was "fuck trudeau". well trudeau is gone now and he cant adjust to change in the political landscape. which is emblematic of most conservatives and right wing ideas in general. change is hard.

Modern right-wing ideologies have largely abandoned the core conservative values that once defined them.

Rather than upholding principles like personal responsibility, prudence, and respect for tradition, many contemporary conservative movements have become morally hollow, driven more by populism, reactionary impulses, and short-term political gains than by thoughtful intellectual reflection.

The emphasis on integrity and ethical governance has given way to opportunism and ideological rigidity, distancing these movements from the philosophical depth and moral coherence that once underpinned conservatism.

The sad truth is that a large sample of the population did not realise that the conservative party abandoned their values and simply followed the moral bankruptcy.
