I think it’s generally better to promote the people you want to see in rather than bash all the people who fall short of expectations.
No matter where you’re from.
Yeah, Reform’s not good. Labor doesn’t fulfill promises. Liberals aren’t promoting freedoms. The Communists are authoritarian capitalists. Cool. You know whose voter base IS excited about their candidate? Conservatives, Tories, Republicans, AfD, so unless you want them to win just pick a damn horse.
Reform’s not good enough
That’s weird phrasing when we’re talking about an openly bigoted far right wing party that is absolutely, clearly, and unashamedly running on racism.
It’s not about them not being “good enough”, it’s about them being distinctly cruel and malicious. It’s sort of like if you’d said Hitler wasn’t “good enough”.
Sorry, I was lacking some context, made the edit.
Reform is a right wing party lead by Nigel Farage

That’s the opposite of how it works under first-past-the-post. The more mud one slings at their opponents the better they do.
People are waking up to the fact the greens are the only party serious about tacking affordability issues that everyday people are facing while everyone else is focused on pointless culture wars.
In the USA and Canada there has been a stark shift among the youth to the right because the right makes them feel like they belong (ironically while oppressing others) while the left tells everybody they’re wrong. For example, Harris lost to a pedophile not because people didn’t know he was a pedophile but because Harris didn’t excite anybody.
Germany and France having similar issues.
Part of winning elections is about getting people motivated to vote.
while the left tells everybody they’re wrong
They do? Who are these ‘the left’ that you mention? I must have missed the option to vote for them on my ballot paper.
Tbh, I reject this idea that online discourse has got much to do with the results of voting in a rigged system. Having a choice between the Convservatives and Labour is not choosing left from right. They’re identical parties participating in the same scheme. Similar Harris and Trump, but the post was about the UK so I dont really want to get into that.
Appeasing chuds online is not going to magically make leftist views represented in countries where leftist views have been systematically oppressed for decades.
I really wish that people would stop calling other people “elites”.
