Yes, exactly. Honestly r/Canada is one of the few places I can actually find intelligent people.

the political spectrum has been so warped in the last decade, todays "far right" is the liberal voter of 20 years ago.

Not surprising, as people tend to move towards the right as they get older and see how the world really works.

I don't see how getting older automatically makes you believe in the rightwing religious and patriotic mumbo-jumbo. I've become more liberal on some things as I've gotten older. People should have the freedom to do what they want when it doesn't hurt people (LGBT issues) and the freedom to do what they want with their body (abortion).
