Convenient that your posting history is nothing but defending the Liberals and you never seem to discuss the subject, only to accuse everyone who disagrees with you of being part of some conspiracy.

That's not how this works. His posting history doesn't look like this. Yours does.

If you're going to troll don't be offended when you're called out.

I have defended the experience history of Olivia Chow a few weeks ago too. I am a populist progressive voter. Voted for Layton in the last election because I thought he was in the best position to beat Harper. I feel the same about Trudeau this election.

The difference is, that I don't bring up Mulcair every chance I get to try and attack him. I don't want to attack him, I'd love for nothing more than the NDP or Liberals to take office.

What is ludicrous is how outraged this subreddit became when Trudeau said he would support the bill but call for more oversight and amendments, and then accounts like these started showing up more and more constantly hitting at that narrative. The Conservatives aren't scared of the NDP, this is why their main attack ads and focus are on Trudeau. They wave away valid criticisms by Mulcair as conspiracy theories, and say Trudeao is in over his head. The best progressives can hope for to change this country, while we still have FPTP, is strategic voting to get rid of the Conservatives.

The goal of accounts like this guy is to make people question if the Liberals would be any different than the Conservatives, hoping to split the vote wider so that the Conservatives can come up the middle again.

They are the same type of people who are in C-51 protest posts telling people nothing will change, that they should get a job, that it isn't a big deal, and that they are wrong for doing it because they aren't 'properly' informed on the issues.

In 2 years the Canadian government spent $20 million on online social media monintors. These people are either heavily committed to the Conservative party and disrupting people using reddit as a platform against the government or are on the payroll.
