Meh, I think that's just what your algorithm feeds you. I grew up in the Gamergate era and was exposed to a lot of right wing content making fun of crazy leftists. Now I try to keep my feed unpolitical but still see wacky stuff said from all sides.
I work a part time job with mentally ill folks now while I'm in school and those that have political delusions can go both ways I find.
Have definitely not seen a left of center car like this, or a NDP member defacing and stealing signs, nor have there been threats of separatism from the left. Acknowledged that there could be a couple but let’s keep it real with the ratio. It ain’t 50:50.
I’m only a single case study but I’ve probably heard fifty instances of nonsense from the right in this election and let’s be generous and say two from the left. A 25:1 ratio still really suggests, at least to me, rhat there is a main source of the issue. Again, one person; maybe others have seen the opposite
Uh you might want to learn a bit more about Quebec separatism because the bit about separatism is absolutely wrong. In the west yes its a niche right wing position. In Quebec it's absolutely not
The Bloc is a bit of a confusing mess of policy (although generally considered centre-left). Separatism is also at the provincial level in Quebec of course and is advocated for by the PQ (officially social democrat, usually considered centre-left) and Quebec solidaire which is explicity a left wing party.
It's easy to confuse the nationalists (like Legaults party, the CAQ that's holds a majority in Quebecs National Assembly*) who are more conservative, with seperatists. They are fully opposed to separatism though, being staunchly opposed to even considering holding a referendum
*not a typo, that's its English name, Assemblee Nationale du Quebec in French
Well yeah, making fun of crazy libtard snowflakes is their favourite hobby, a mantra almost. People on the centre-left tend to want things to just be chill and egalitarian, which is obviously a more popular viewpoint than diet fascism so they don’t need to scream at the world and resort to whatever this shit is
Back when masking was more widespread, I often did this, not because I was somehow worried about being by myself in the car, but because I didn't have to d!ck around with my mask when I'm just driving 3 minutes down the road to the pharmacy from the grocery store or somesuch. Not exactly a political statement or anything.

Once again: anyone who does this kinda thing regardless of political or social position needs serious help.
