As for collectivism, you might shudder...if you're clinically anti-social. A less intellectual word for collectivism is community, you know the thing that conservatives like to pretend they support. The thing that is fundamentally human. The thing we have sought to purge from our society.

Yeah, I'm not being polite today to people who are tacitly supporting the economic war being waged against Canada today. Try again tomorrow.

A far-left socialist (and I'm trying to be nice) resorting to insults, I would have never expected it

I don't consider "far-left socialist" to be an insult.

The ironic thing is that most of the neocons (as you seem to be) have already realized what a mistake Trump is. And it's not because he "cares for the people" (honestly, could you think anything more absurd, I don't think so), it's because he's an erratic, incompetent, and uncontrollable narcissist who is destroying the country. Folks were more afraid of a "far-left socialist" (by US measures, a firm centrist anywhere else) and so opted for Trump, but that's not going to pay off for most. The markets are down, the financial indicators are in the red, and the wallstreet bros are getting nervous. Now, I couldn't care less about them, fuck them. But the idea that Trump is going to bring tremendous GDP growth, absurd. He will enable the riches 0.001% to concentrate the wealth of the country further to be sure...but that fucks over even most wealthy people.
