The young girl protesting outside the Kremlin and refusing to back away is the one standing up to tyranny. The Ukrainian lady giving out sunflower seeds to Russian soldiers and telling them to their faces that their dead bodies will fertilize her flowers is standing up to tyranny. The old men picking up arms in Kiev to face the third largest army in the world, with no support from NATO or the U.S., is standing up to tyranny.
Real consequences. Real stakes. Not dressing up your stupid hillbilly truck with stickers and Trump flags just to protest an extremely minor inconvenience.
These right-wing clowns know there is no danger of being arrested or killed. Even the Trumpers who did face any kind of consequence for storming the Capitol over an entirely false grievance quickly folded and begged for mercy when it happened. Those people, the ones who wave stupid flags, make noise, and want everyone to see them as “defenders of liberty,” would actually be the first to run during a real invasion. The juxtaposition is striking.
Words like tyranny get thrown around so much on the right it has almost lost its meaning. Yet these trying times remind everyone that not always getting your way in a democracy is not at all the same as actual tyranny. I never thought much of these so-called convoys, but now that the world is getting a taste of what real tyranny is all about and witnessing ordinary people brave enough to risk death in order to stand up to it, it makes this whinny temper-tantrum road trip all that more pathetic.

How do 'Freedom Convoys' look now as Moscow protesters/Ukrainian fighters stand up to real tyranny?
Thousands of Russian people have been out on the streets in Moscow and St. Petersburg protesting against Putin’s inane decision to violate Ukraine. They got arrested in droves, yet the people are still coming. Meanwhile, Ukrainians everywhere are...
