For me it is certainly not contained to the fringe. It's a case of "decent people standing by and doing nothing makes them complicit"

I wish I could explain better. Grew up downtown Calgary in the 80s. I've seen some stuff...its hard to unsee

Yeah, that's the entitled club group, although its ability to maintain its function is depending on a farther right subset these days. It's the "we do what's best for each other and forget everyone else" mindset. So long as their interests aren't impacted, who cares what she does to stay in power...

The UCP have retained a large part of the PC base and more importantly the "in-crowd" mentality. So it has kind of just been tranferred to the UCP subconsciously i suppose. Now you have me searching for details. But there is definately an association.

The PCs were the party of power for 2 generations. The justices I have encountered in political life over many years have made no secret they were part of "the club". Innuendo not outright. it wasn't everyone. But it was clear enough and often enough that it made me sick. No proof that has changed.

I didn't even realize how weird that was until I got to the festival and started telling people and processing it 😂

Not this year but last summer...I was biking to a music festival and came across a black bear on the trail. He did come at me, but his stance was "whatcha doin'?" I yelled SIT out of panic and habit (I have large dogs) and...he did. And then I rode away.
