I’m sorry but short of a revolution (which is unlikely), or slow, measured positive change over the course of decades (which we’d still have to fight hard for), we’re stuck with a two party system and you shouldn’t blame people for sticking with the lesser of two evils. I do agree that Liberals can be heavy handed with their bans, but I guess they’re doing so to keep the discourse focused. Trump is a very real and immediate threat who might commit far more heinous crime if he becomes the president again.

Policy change comes from people resisting policy with their votes. Abortion is on the agenda because people demanded it with votes. This is no different.

Enough people start demanding it and it will happen. No matter how much politicians want to sell out, they can only do so if you vote for them.
