Revisiting this thread from Charles, a man I don& #39;t always agree with but a man of genuine principle, and here is one thing I thought about: modern conservatism isn& #39;t getting less radical. https://twitter.com/charlesadler/status/1300033471570612224">https://twitter.com/charlesad...

It starts with voters, and their sources of information and influence. Canadian conservatives don& #39;t seen to be getting more tolerant. I go back to this chart a lot, because it is incredibly striking. I& #39;d like to see the numbers now.

I would add that on the first ballot of the federal CPC leadership race, Leslyn Lewis and Derek Sloan, both social conservatives — and the latter of whom is in full blown anti-mask, race-baiting, homophobia territory — got 35% of the vote. Sloan reappears in this thread later.
