Third, I didn't say everyone, just the ones who vote for people who are clearly unqualified, uneducated, unwilling to learn facts that counter their dogma, and uninterested in governing a province in Canada in the best interests of the citizens living there. And no, it's not just because I disagree, it's because their methods are pretty incompatible with their goals, because they refuse facts, data and science, and govern on feels, vindictiveness, and conflict.
Haha, not anyone that talks to me, they're the good ones. You guys are kinda proving his point.

And its not like you'd agree with their reasoning anyway, you just hand wave it as greedy and stupid and continue on. It's mainly a matter of priorities. Someone that votes NDP wants the government to tax and spend. They value the government about how much money and services they provide people. BC jacking up spending is a sign of good leadership for example.

A UCP voter doesn't look at it like that. They go, here is your budget based on todays taxes, figure it out. In the mean time get out of my way so I can hopefully get a pay raise at work.

Inevitably leads to knee jerk reactions where typical UCP person views the NDP as leeches. Typical NDP person views the UCP as greedy and stupid. Meanwhile 90% of people can't tell the difference between them and the two parties agree on 80% of things
