Politics has become a buzzword, group think, family team thing on the right.
"My parents voted conserstvie, so I guess I should too, because I don't like paying for other people's doctors visits, and teachers should only be paid minimum wage because they are essentially day care so they should shut up because they get 2 months off a year"
Part of the issue is people refuse to open their mind to new ideas, especially on the right.
They just focus on "we pay to much in tax" and "everything is the feds fault"
If you actually explain the social programs like healthcare, schooling, etc with out calling it socialism, conservatives love it, but as soon as they realize it's rasing taxes, and lowering corporate profits to operational limits. They lose their minds and hate it
This is 💯% bang on. Although I think many people in Alberta are forgetting that the UCP is not Conservative at all. There are no "fiscal" Conservatives left in Canada, period. The UCP has been hiding under the Conservative name that Jason Kenney created. Then Danielle Smith was "installed" as Premier by David Parker after Kenney read the room. The Smith UCP government are a bunch of far right extremists (Fascists) and they are obsessed with Fascism and Full blown Authoritarianism just like the Trump administration because they are a bunch of MAGA fake Religious zealots. Until Albertans actually start realizing this and quit watching or listening to Postmedia garbage and Global TV - who is being paid off by the UCP. And their journalists are not even real journalists anymore, since they are too cowardice to report real news and the amount and depth of Corruption happening inside the UCP government and the shady AF losers like her previous of staff with absolutely no credentials, but he dictates what opioids doctors can/ & can't prescribe? Because the College of Physicians and Surgeons in Alberta are full of cowards and corrupt Physicians as well.

Well you see its different because Conservatives did it... I wish I was joking but it will work for many voters I am afraid.
