It's an example of what the NDP are up against. If that's the voter you have to convince, you may as well be trying to stuff Andre the Giant into a Powerwheels Corvette.

It's one of the comments on the article from a commenter. You have to click the "load comments" button to see it. It's not a line from the actual article itself.

I've never seen any value in reading the comment section of anything. You could eyeroll most of them, ugh.

The article asks "What went wrong" and then you see the type of comments I've been seeing forever. Yeah it wasn't in the article but it is exactly the reason why the NDP lost.

"What went wrong?"
We've never had a high school course on critical thinking, so media literacy is in an absolute shambles.

Dude, if I had a nickel for every time I have heard someone say a comment like this whenever I support the NDP, I'd be living in the Caymans.
