This was the response:
Instead of thinking: "Hey, thats a good question. That guy is doing what he's supposed to be doing."
They just attacked the leader of official opposition for doing his job because they dont like him.
And hey, I get it, Poilievre is inherently unlikable, I can understand that. The guy has all of the charisma of a brick to the face.
But there is still a job to be done. The Opposition asks a perfectly relevant question and are subsequently attacked for it.
Trudeau's name and party affiliation were never even uttered.
And as you just said, people everywhere are 'bashing' Trudeau.
Well...so what?
Questioning requires thought. 'Bashing' just requires feelings.

Looked to me like people were “bashing” him for the way he went about doing his job, not the doing of the job itself.
I don’t see how any one of those posts was any less thoughtful than “I guess we'll never know because if anyone even dares question Fearless Leader they are worthy only of derision and mockery.” At least they got closer to representing an actual position instead of making up a straw man. Fuzz even asked questions, you know, questioning, that thoughtful thing you love, but you’re pretending he was just “bashing”? Lying isn’t interesting, we can all read.
I think you’re fully aware of the difference between people criticizing the opposition for doing their job and people criticizing the opposition for garbage pandering stuff like “ArriveScam.” The question is (look at that, thought… again!) why you’re pretending you don’t, even after initially dismissing the latter as “something all politicians do, news at 11!” or whatever.
It’s honestly like some of you don’t think anyone will notice this consistent level of silliness. Fearless leader can’t be criticized? Please, who are you pandering to with that? That’s all that happens in this thread. It’d be as asinine as strolling into the AB politics thread and pretending nobody can dare criticize Kenney or Smith. Come on.
