Brazil might be a hard ask. Particularly if there has been trickle down imbecility at the three letter agencies, as I suspect there has. |

BC was a decision between a center-left candidate (who was doing some stupid election shenanigans) and a center-center candidate (who is by all reports the most boring politician they could find) in a province in Canada. This is not any way comparable to a country of over 200M people potentially falling to fascism. |

Do they need to be comparable for me to feel a certain way about their respective outcomes? Both matter to me. |

This is why I really like the run-off system of the non-instant variety. It gives people a clear choice and a chance to think. People that might not have voted the first round see a stark choice and may think "yeah I better go vote or we'll have another Bolsanaro running things and I don't want that." Congrats to Brazil! |

To feel like it's relevant in a thread about an election in another country, yes, it should be comparable. You should probably work on your empathy a little more if over 200 million people facing fascism gives you the same feelings as a province electing a boring centrist. |

The Tories are still going to fuck up treaty negotiations, wreck sex education, push old growth logging, and sell off our health system. They'll probably also repeal the single-family home zoning ban. Going to be a rough FO cycle. |

Thank you, I am working on it right now. |
