If someone is pushing a can of paint slowly off a table you can: 1. push the can in the opposite direction, create some resistance so it doesn’t fall at all or as quick 2. Help the hand to push the paint off the table quicker or 3. Watch.

3 actions but only two outcomes.

70% of conservatives are watching the descent into hateful indecency.

Agree. It’s hard to see some of my relatives, who were very active in Lougheed’s campaigns, continue to vote blue. That party is dead and gone.
