A #CPC's propaganda partner @globeandmail is running a laughable article trying to modernize a leader & his party. They seem to think if you use the words “...thoroughly modern Conservative strategy.” that somehow it will become that, in this case, a thoroughly modern fantasy.
1/
If they're saying he's a leader who uses pat old time sloganeering like “Take Back Canada.” and “I'm a handyman, not a poster boy for sloganeering like the other guy.” while using scare memes and scare meme colours is a thoroughly modern Conservative strategy,

I'd have to question their sanity because it's been done for decades by all forms of conservatives. If spending full time demeaning and insulting the leader of the other parties, especially demonizing the Liberal leader while dredging up every faux scandal their pals at TPM,

(aka Pound Boys...er...I mean Proud Boys) while denying climate change, refusing to condemn anti-masker rallies and...well, it just never stops and is not a thoroughly modern Conservative strategy. It is an old, dirty hard worn strategy of convincing their base to hate

the other guy. Rationality be damned, hate him or her with a deep seated passion. This is, in the opinion of the Globe and Mail, a “thoroughly modern Conservative strategy.” They are desperately trying to steer the #CPC away from the reef they're headed for, that can't be done
