You might also ask him why, if mask mandates and other things controlled by the Provinces are the root cause of his unhappiness, he isn't protesting at Queens Park waving a "Fuck Ford" flag instead. Seems to me this convoy is just a thinly veiled excuse for people with Trudeau Derangement Syndrome to act out.

He mostly reads Russian news outlets that trash Trudeau and Freeland regularly. I don't think he knows why he hates them; he is consistently unable to answer the question in a clear and concise manner (the few points he mentioned were that he hates Trudeau's face and in the past doesn't like that he's "taking away his guns" and called Freeland a Nazi). Plenty of good reasons to dislike JT but I think he's just lost in disorganized thoughts. I genuinely believe it's as simple as him being the victim of some hardcore brainwashing. So yeah, dp is right... There's no winning there. You can't reason with him.
 
The Edmonton stuff was so dumb.

Because we basically have no restrictions unless you refuse to get a vaccine without a valid reason.
I honestly cannot think of one thing I am not allowed to do right now. I can go for supper, go to an NHL game, play hockey, go to the pub, go to the movies, visit my family, travel abroad, etc

Now if it was FREEDOM - why the fuck did I see them stopped at a red light? Fucking sheeple.

Painting as Nazis any Ukrainians (or people of Ukrainian heritage like Freeland) who don’t fully support returning Ukraine to the loving hegemony of Mother Russia has definitely been a common feature of Russian propaganda over the last number of years.

So, sounds about right. And I know sa couple of activist lefties myself that eat that shit up for whatever reason.
 
I want to know when the far left/woke mob/BeLeafers of the world started spewing the same talking points as Russian bots... cause I feel like this is a pretty new thing

I know even 5-6 years ago, one of the most activist left-wing people I grew up with suddenly started regurgitating a steady stream of RT (Russia Today—their state operated English propaganda arm) content and similar stuff on his Facebook page.

Which I guess nicely coincides with the Ukrainian Euromaidan uprising and the subsequent Russian invasion of Ukraine. As well as Trump’s rise as the Republican Presidential candidate.

You're so lucky dude, Ontario has taken away all of our freedoms! Did you know we had to lock down for a couple of weeks and could only order restaurant food for takeout? It's practically fascism!

I think starting today restaurants can have 50% capacity. The Constitution of Canada guarantees my right to sit in a crowded restaurant during a pandemic!! Next step is concentration camps.

After work today I'll be going to the gym. The gym that was never, ever shutdown since the very first days of the pandemic two years ago. Oh sure, I have to have proof of vaccination to use the gym, but it's wide open.

gym in AB were shutdown a few times

edit: actually i think just once - you were allowed to do 1 on 1 training with a paid trainer during some of the lockdowns
 
I only know one anti-vaxxer - he is (was?) a paramedic and told me he didn't get the vaccine because "he didn't agree with being told what to do". No other reason given. He went off on stress leave before the mandates came into effect for his service so he's still been getting paid while off. He's been fairly quiet posting the last couple years but the last week he's been off the deep end about re: the convoy.

The supporters I've seen have sounded completely fucking unhinged.

This tells us all we need to know about just how far down the rabbit hole the CPC has fallen. Erin O'Fucking Toole is literally too left wing for them.

I love it because if the western yahoo wing pulls off this coup we won't need to worry about that party ever taking power. They will be having Anamie Paul level election results from now on. They will be non-existent east of Manitoba and west of Alberta.
