I think the Freedom Convoy may have already accomplished something…

Do you know who is leading this thing you're backing?

The Alt-Right on Facebook Are Hijacking Canada’s Trucker Blockade

In Ottawa, a protest against vaccine mandates has become an international sensation. American far-right personalities are behind its online rise.

What if it were a group of pedophiles would you follow them if you agree with their statement?

If the group of paedophiles say that COVID restrictions should be lifted, I will completely agree with them and support them in this. It has nothing to do with them being paedophiles. Very bad people can also support something good. Hell, a paedophile may risk his lives to save child from a burning building. It odes not mean that being paedophile is good, but being paedophile does not diminish the fact that such deed will be heroic and he should get a medal for it.

No, it is not a sacrifice. He did it for himself as much as for the cause. Do you think he would prefer to be unknown cancer victim instead of a National hero? His run was a hard work, not a sacrifice. Do not diminish the meaning of word "sacrifice". A healthy person who dies rescuing a child from going down the waterfall makes a sacrifice. A scientists who chooses his work over personal life and whose discovery saves millions of life does not make a sacrifice. Do not dilute the meaning of sacrifice.

I apologize MOD, but he is a worthless piece of shit! Thats for you Terry and all who had suffered from cancer.

Still, not a sacrifice. Sorry, sacrifice is too strong word for it. We just have to agree to disagree on what "sacrifice" means and it has nothing to to with Terry Fox.

On a more serious note how is all this going to be resolved? The protest can't go forever and covid-19 isn't going to go away.

The protestors are well funded, they can outlast Justin

Lift all the restrictions
If 2 years & 78% vaxx rate does not address Covid. 5 years and 82% wont either

 

[Frankfooter]

And here is your problem: being pro-vax and pro-mandates are very different things. I am pro-vax and I am against vaccine mandate and mask requirements. I strongly support vaccination and wearing masks. Do you see the difference?

Yes, you're protesting something that is ending by itself as the worst wave we've seen from the pandemic ends.

I guess that explains why you have no problem supporting a movement started by Western separatists who don't even drive trucks, even though they are filled with white supremacists and funded by the GOP.

 

[glamphotographer]

This will drag on, in the summer the feds remove restrictions, then they will demand Trudeau to resign. It's not about the mandates alone it's about toppling the government.

Post of the year, so far and truer words were never spoken. If we leave the covid policies in the government hands, they(the politicians) will destroy us simply because they have no idea what else to do aside the shutdowns and divisions and restrictions.

 

[PeteOsborne]

66% vs 22%. You are really stretching the definition of "unity" especially if you take into account that government-supported Canadian media paints a negative portrait of this protest, so, a large portion of these 66% who did not go to the downtown themselves are influenced by the media.

Didn't expect you to unerstand the math, it is 87% that want the protestors to leave Ottawa when you calculate 46% of the 22% that support the convoy in to the mix.
As stated in the article" The poll found 87 per cent of respondents said yes to the question, "Do you think protesters have had an opportunity to make their point and should leave town?"

Pretty much described in this interview. The neo nazi organizers will masquerade as anti vaxxers to get the movement up and running. As the mandates are withdrawn, the brief, more general support will dry up and the hardcore remnants will become more aggressive about their real aims - to overthrow the government.

78% vax rate meant that the hospitals weren't filled on this last wave and it only lasted a month.
It was just the anti vaxxers filling it up this time.

I love this story from CBC.

The websiite convoytraitors.ca has been doing a great job photographing all the trucks at the protests and sending them back to the companies that own those trucks.
People are getting fired and in deep shit for using work trucks without the company's permission.

My mistake, I must've posted the whole thing. But, it is moronic to comment without examining the material. Oh, and FNC is the MSM. You just prefer the cottage outlets like the CNN.

Oh, wait, was I right? So, I saved myself the time to hear disinformation or half truths.

And while Fox might be popular, I'm not sure I'd call it mainstream. It's sort of like Playboy, in which some people claim to watch it for a different take on things, but most are just looking for dirty pictures, or in this case, news that reinforces their political views. Unlike the other MSM, it doesn't attempt to have things like journalistic integrity or ethics. It does't attempt to tell the story with little bias. It acts as a propaganda outlet for the GOP.

 

[silentkisser]

Don't be ridiculous
There is much humor in jests
Carlson cast light on some obvious extremes that rigid conformity to loonie left ideology produces (ie the always entertaining AOC who does recognize she has painted herself as court jester)
He has a public platform and he has some fun with it

You should be far more concerned about the court jester who wants to get rid of capitalism
the feeble minded are the ones who find credibility in the court jester

LOL. Loonie left vs the fascists right...Here's the thing: Tucker appeals to the fascists. The ones who want to overthrow the government. The ones who are threatened by POC enjoying the same rights as everyone else. The ones who realize they are being left behind because the political party they supported never had their best interests at heart, the party that cut spending on education and a social safety net that makes them dependent on their employers.

I understand why the GOP is so laser focused on AOC. They need to put an outspoken women in her place. So, they look for any way they can to knock her down a peg. They of course question her intelligence. They try to intimidate her by posting violent videos. They try to make it seem like she lied about her background. They look for any dirt they can find...and there isn't much.

So, keep trying to smear AOC. She's worth a hell of a lot smarter than GOP rising star like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Madison Crawford or Lauren Boebert.

Fox sells anger.

Anger Makes People Want Things More

Anger is an interesting emotion for psychologists. On the one hand, it's negative, but then it also has some of the features of positive emotions. For a new study published in Psychological Science, a journal …

Tech Crunch says that the donors to givesendgo have all had their personal data breached.
Whoops.

Do we get to see who is really behind this insurrection?

Donation site for Ottawa truckers' 'Freedom Convoy' protest exposed donors' data

GiveSendGo exposed passports and driver's licenses used to validate the payments of donors.

The last time this happened it turned out the police and public officials were sending money to accused murderer Kyle Rittenhouse.

Then you have this guy, the organizers called for someone to move the building from confederation park.
He supported the convoy so he said ok.
Then " According to May, the structure was initially supposed to be moved to a location in Vars, but police told him en route to take it to the parking lot at the Ottawa stadium. Upon hearing that, May says the convoy organizer who was riding with him said, “Randy, if you do that, I’m going to wreck you and your company.” "
"Additionally, he says, the haters have come from both sides of the issue, with convoy supporters ganging up first when they thought he was moving the structure as part of a police effort, followed by the anti-convoy contingent when it became clear he supported the protest."
" May is also angry with King for failing to come to his support."
"He still supports the convoy, but adds he’d like to give King a piece of his mind.“I’d like to knock his f—ing teeth out, for not helping or throwing a lifeline.”"

This could be another reason besides insurance why tow truck operators are hesitant to send their equipment to the area.

That and the police have been backing this protest, they have given them hot food, looked the other way and generally refused to hold them to the law and bylaws.
The techcrunch leak showed that police were actively funding Kyle Rittenhouse's legal fund, I'm sure we'll see that they've been backing this protest because its a right wing thing.

The Liberals are laughing at the Conservatives who are digging deeper and deeper.
