He basically forced the Liberals to alter the carbon tax. Was that a result of meaningful criticism?

No.
But, let’s say it was, because that’s what you’re angling for and it’s actually more entertaining. So, your suggestion is that your feelings about the carbon tax, and the feelings of anyone who feels negatively about it (acknowledging it was abandoned because it was unpopular), is actually because PP told you to feel that way by criticizing it?
Like, you don’t even want to pretend to think for yourself here? Just, PP forced the Liberals to change the carbon tax because he made it unpopular by telling his followers how to think?
I’m not sure relying on ad populum after crediting PP as the source of your and his supporters thoughts and feelings is really doing the work you think it’s doing.
