They have no policy position on anything except to disagree with whatever Carney is doing. If he capitulated and signed a crappy trade deal they'd be saying he's weak and should have stood his ground. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SreudianFlip@sh.itjust.works 1 point 1 day ago Some of them, for sure! I learned from covid that about 10% of the population is contrarian, and though that overlaps somewhat with conservatism, it's also prevalent among self-described "antiauthoritarians" who are into alternative health and politics (they think).
