It's just a protest

The convoy broke some of the rules of staging a mass protest. Primarily there needs to be someone to turn it off just before it starts becoming unpopular. You can't hurt the people you say you are trying to help. You should make it about one thing. You try to turn it off before the authorities escalate. You show up expecting to be arrested and with bail money or you stay home. Should probably leave the nazi/confederate flags at home.
 
Maybe liberals will be forced to get that truckers are more vital to society than diversity consultants.
No way. Feminist dance therapists are the very kingpin -- ooops, sorry, my patriarchy slipped -- errr, the lynchpin of -- dang it! That's racist! I mean, feminist dance therapists are the very cornerstone of civilization!

Oh, if ONLY they'd looted liquor stores and burned down their neighbor's businesses! Then it would be a legitimate protest!
 
Cant have people peacefully protesting. That aint right...

Actually I think it's the fact that they are [on the] right that is the problem. If they were protesting some left wrong-wing cause, such as Black LIES Matter, it'd be OK. But someone from the left wrong probably would not have the mental capacity nor physical skills to operate a truck.
 
Hard as it is to admit, the Canadian trucker protest movement isn't even a half-measure of real resistance or retribution for what governments around the world did to their people between 2020 and now. For two years governments around the planet, including Canada's, destroyed the livelihoods of millions of their people, and through the implementation of their COVID restrictions, cost the lives of thousands if not millions of their own citizens.

In retaliation for this overt, blatant tyranny, the best Canadian truckers and other protesters can muster is a fucking "freedom" convoy? They kill us. They extort us. They crush our means to earn livings for our families. What do we do? We fucking protest, peacefully and in the process give our governments an excuse to use the full power of their civil and military forces against us. We play right into their hands.

Say what you will about the primitive, savage, backward barbarism of the Taliban but at least they have the balls, the will and the desire to actually wage war against the foreign forces occupying their nation, even knowing they are going out to fight the most powerful, most advanced military in human history with fifty-year-old weaponry.

We Americans (and Canadians) on the other hand don't even have the intestinal fortitude to form one single bloody actual resistance group. Tells you a whole lot about what's become of the Spirit of '76. These days only the fading ghost of that spirit remains; not even a cold shadow of what it once was. Shame on us.

So who were the people that were supposed to stop all the looting and burning in the BLM summer of love? They got some explaining to do.

The problem is not the truckers. Usually protesters use their bodies to block access to places they are protesting. Sometimes union protesters use hand weapons to discourage people crossing their picket lines.

But with the truckers, they have these massive vehicles they are using to block travel. Those trucks can only be moved by specialized tow trucks and those drivers are refusing to go against the truckers. I heard Gov. Whitmer is offering "heavy equipment" to Trudeau, to get rid of the offending Trucks.

That makes more sense than draining their fuel as has been done, and slashing their tires as other libs have suggested. Suppose the truckers wake up tomorrow and have an epiphany that you are right. How they gonna move their trucks with no fuel and slashed tires?

It's a parody of what right-wingers think happens at most protests. The right is new to mass protests and they are really blowing it so far.
 
You are so correct, between that January thing and these truckers not a single place has been reduced to ash. Much to learn indeed.
You don't understand because the rage was always more important than the increasingly murky goals. No ones cares if you are mad, everyone is mad about something.
 
They did?

According to whom?

Unfortunately they did, yep.

You mean like in Seattle or Portland when they tried to burn a police station?

Oh wait, those weren't truckers....and I doubt the apartment fire statrers were
Stay on topic
 

Unfortunately they did, yep.

And can you or the people in that article prove they were affiliated with the truckers?

EDIT: No, you/they can't.
