AMonkeyInSilk 🇺🇦🇵🇸I don’t believe in the Australian myth that home ownership is a worthy goal.I know that safe, secure, private and long term housing is a human right.

Coach Pāṇini ®Some people keep supporting 45, and you can understand why. It's hard to admit when we might have made a mistake, especially a big one. Imagine if you thought your choice might not be good for your family or country. That would feel awful!Some might find it easier to keep supporting the same person rather than wondering if they chose wrong.We all make mistakes sometimes. The important thing is that everyone gets to <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/vote" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vote</a> for who they want, even if others disagree.

Vanni Di Ponzano ⁂🚴 ❤️ ☕ 🍎Pierre Poilievre is the only MP running who has had to enter into a compliance agreement with Elections Canada. <a href="https://gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p1/2017/2017-07-22/html/parliament-parlement-eng.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p1/2017/2017-07-22/html/parliament-parlement-eng.html</a> Think about that for a moment.

Linux Is BestI often just wish I could ask them, what made you like this?! Seriously, how does someone who claims to be a patriot and claims to love their country and democracy, get off at the idea of denying people the right to vote? Truthfully, MAGA sound like Nazis' day by day. Very cruel, while being very calculated, and truly sure of themselves, regardless of how morally and ethnically bankrupt they are. <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/Vote" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vote</a> <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/VotingRights" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VotingRights</a> <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/WomensRights" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WomensRights</a>

Francisca SinnMy <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Canadian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Canadian</a> friends, we must do all we can to keep Poilievre & his brand of hateful, divisive & unconstructive hubris out of government. He has such contempt & disrespect for Canadians & Canada that he hasn’t even obtained a security clearance. Does anyone actually believe that he *can*? He’s a national security & domestic affairs risk. He’s unfit.By voting strategically, you can help ensure the CPC candidate loses.
