Good theory. For social groups, this may be understandable. For the police and all state actors to adopt this speaks to something more planned and will leave western societies broken until someone can figure out a way to fix it.

In the B.C. election looks like the cities of Nanaimo, Vancouver and Victoria went almost 100% NDP.

It is the laptop class of urban areas that support ESL (End State Liberalism).

Yep, B.C is a great example of End State Liberalism. Unfortunately it doesn't look like the Conservative push was enough to topple the giant, there's still too much money for the State to make off the backs of those suffering the most.

It is up to the Greens. Will they take a crappy deal from the NDP like 2017 where all they got was a referendum on proportional representation, and then the NDP ripped up the deal in 2021. Or will they play hardball with the Conservatives and NDP and get written commitments on several policy areas favorable to the Greens?
