My machine still not allowing me to link to zh. Not sure what that's about.

Anyway, interesting to see the government in Canada amplifying this beyond a protest about mandates into a political attempt at overthrow. From what I have heard from the convoy side, it sounds like "Drop the covid restrictions and we go home."

Pause a moment to see just how vital to their purpose the government sees these covid measures to be. Rather than heed a clear (and clearly with backing from significant portion of their population) demand to end the covid regime, they would rather turn the volume on this up to a "civil war" scenario. What then is the actual purpose of the regime? What do the covid restrictions provide them such that the alternative (no restrictions) must be stopped even if that requires suppression of their population at a level that only a civil war can offer them?

There is something deeply alarming about just how violently the sociopaths in the west are willing to defend their claim on the bodily integrity of their citizens.

Honk, Honk!

It's been a big un-noble lie from the beginning. They knew it. We know it.

...they would rather turn the volume on this up to a "civil war" scenario.

This has obviously always been their plan. There is no turning back for them. They also have the ability to money, strangle supply chains, and have the monopoly on violence.

What do the covid restrictions provide them [...] only a civil war can offer them?

Exactly.

Depopulation agenda.

Absolutely alarming lack of any sort of attempt at compromise. Here are additional thoughts - https://communities.win/c/AskWin/p/141YS5kpvz/trudeau-piece-of-turd-that-he-is/c

    Just a thought on zh not working. I remember reading that firefox was going to start blocking/censoring on the browser level before you could even view content. Not sure if this is that, just a thought

    I've had browser issues with some sites too. I didn't have time to figure it out, but I suspect a browser update fixed some recently.

    Your machine? Link? You mean your computer is unable to visit zerohedge.com articles? Then how did you get that link?

    Are you behind a firewall run by a lefty douchebag? I've seen some of them ban conservative leaning news sites.

    [–]StillLessons[S] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    Thanks for all the ideas about the weird "linking" issue with zh.

    When I say I can't link, what I mean is that if I try to create a "link" post to zerohedge, it always hangs up and won't attach the article as that kind of post. But then I can put the link in the body of a text post just as I did here and it's fine.

    This is just some bizarre glitch. Oddly enough, while I'm suspicious about just about everything these days, I'm not suspicious about this, because it's just zerohedge. I can make link posts to almost all other sites, no matter how "conspiracy" the content (infowars, for example). There's just some weird coordination hangup somewhere with zerohedge in particular. Doesn't really matter; you all were able to link through to the article anyway through the link in the body.

    Great comments on the article. Thanks.

    Trudeau know he is fucked so he is going the " they are insurrectionists " route just like biden will when the USA convoy kicks into gear.

    I don't like the name, "People's Convoy", that sounds communist.

    It's a change to see the word used in an non-ironic way.

    [–][deleted] 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

    I think the now ironic uses didn't start that way, or this might end up just as ironic.

    True.

    He already tried the racist route and that didn’t work so now he’s moving onto Plan B.

    By his logic literally every protest is an insurrection. He is the terrorist in this situation and absolutely needs to be removed by any means necessary.

    [–]HiddenFox 5 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 2 fun6 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

    By any means necessary? Saying something like that only hurts your cause and strengthen theirs. Trudeau needs to be voted out of office.

    Yes! Swap one tyrant for another tyrant! That will teach them all!

    Politics is give and take with concessions.
    Tyranny is take and take conceding nothing.

    NYT of course is framing it as a Neo Nazi rally / insurrection that must be shut down with overwhelming military force.

    Interesting post on pol a few days back (that I'm too lazy to dig up) that said iirc they passed a law a few years ago to take effect nearly to the day the Trucker Protest started outlawing jamming traffic for protest purposes. Big hmm...

    And it’s funny that the left leaning subs on Reddit now support police action when last summer in Portland and other BLM riots they were saying the fascist police were kidnapping people in white vans, calling for the defunding of them, and saying ACAB. Their hypocrisy always finds a way of coming out.

    Why do Canadians keep voting for this clown?? Here is my take:
    Normal Canadians: We have problems with the economy and housing! What are you going to do???
    Justin Trudeau: I love shitskins!
    Retard Canadians: SO STUNNING AND BRAVE!!
    Justin Trudeau: Legalize Weed!!
    Stoner Canadians: A VOTE FOR TRUDEAU IS A VOTE FOR WEED!
    Justin Trudeau: PSYCHE NIGGER! The shitskins I imported dont like weed and I love them more than my country!
    Canadians: Surprised Pikachu Face

    Until we can see who voted for whom and elections are fully transparent, I guarantee you they're rigged. We wouldn't have political families that are eerily similar to royals if the voter really were in charge.

    The problem with full transparency, though, is every election will end a bunch of marriages.

    [–]Dr_Bukkake 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    Maybe just have it set it up to where you can see who voted and not who they voted for. One problem it solves is it shuts down anybody who bitches about politics but don’t vote since you can easily look up to see if they voted and you also get an accurate count on who voted instead of this mail in bullshit with fake names.
