Tweet from larue's second favourite liberal, Gerald Butts.
Threats against the Government and even mentioning Jan 6th type Insurrection against them, is all about Extremism especially with swastikas clearly visible for all to see. Moreover, some of the organizers are known to have ties with the Far Right!!
So not true, and pure lies..... you would know this if you wanted to listen, but it is easier to sit in front of the tv and soak up liberal propaganda.
You can claim its lies but most Canadians saw the flags.
Which means you have a choice between disavowing a protest with swastikas or standing by and defending it.
What specifically from bver_hunter's post is inaccurate?
Threat by way of hanging the Prime Minister in effigy, along with some calling for his execution......... check
Some calling for January 6 style insurrection......... check
Swastikas at the event ......... check
Organizers with known far right ties........ check

Lies, like using photos from 2019 and telling people that they're from the convoy?

Fact check: Photo used to promote 'Freedom Convoy' on social media is from 2019 truck show
The trucks in the image are lined up for a truck show hosted by Pro-Trucker Magazine called the \

While You sit in mama's basement and soak up all the online Alt right propaganda!!
None of that actually happened, it was made up by the CBC on the fly.
And if it was far right protest, i am aure they would have brought more rhan one, conf, and nazi flag... get over yourself, and maby open your eyes and mind a little.
90% of truckers are vaccinated and had nothing to do with this action.
And there were more than just 2 people who there pushing that line.
You have a choice, the public sees this as an extremist event.
You get to decide if you are disavowing extremism or if you are just excusing it.
that’s not only ridiculous but hurts your arguments as a whole. You (and other supporters of the convoy) could gain some creditably by simply acknowledging some fucking idiots were drawn to this protest and it’s organizers have questionable backgrounds. Unfortunately this cause, whatever one might think of it, draws some of the fringe element and it’s inexcusable and that no one could reasonably endorse or defend this.
Most sensible people would accept that argument. But when you get into denying the existence of these problems and blaming it on media and CBC specifically, it just calls everything about your arguments into question.
For what it’s worth, I don’t really follow CBC any more than any other media outlet. I try to keep a balanced viewpoint by getting my info from multiple sources and extrapolating “the truth” from it, including the Toronto Sun which IMO its columnists have reported on this as if they’re getting a slice of that gofundme pie and the outlet has basically worked as a PR agency for the convoy.
But even this article acknowledges……
BONOKOSKI: The Freedom Convoy crashed and burned
Throughout the early night Saturday, fireworks cut the quiet -21C air, as the adrenaline and the whisky first flowed through parts of the Freedom Convoy.

“there were already signs of decay when the Canadian flag is wrapped in a bouquet that includes the Confederate flag, the skull and crossbones, and a swastika.”
“There was no short supply of swastikas.”
“Meanwhile, not far down the street, the statue of Terry Fox, whose run across Canada and death halfway to the finish in 1981 produced multi-millions for cancer research, was strapped in with an upside-down Canadian flag on a pole, littered with hand-made cardboard placards, a swastika and wearing a ball cap that was ridiculously undersized.”
“A lot of the anger, however, was directed personally at Trudeau, with many protesters displaying signs and flags emblazoned with expletives against the prime minister. Some have called for Trudeau to be tried for treason, to be beaten up, or just simply killed.”
Seems to me that the eyes and mind closed and the ears plugged are on your head, not mine.
