Current Events > Guy I went to HS with posted some thing in favor of an anti-vaxx trucker convoy

(+) Yeah! (+)

Like a convoy of trucker passing through the country to get to Ottawa so they can protest the vaccine mandate for truckers

He posted some video of some fat trucker dude with a bunch of hashtags like "#downwithvaxx" "#downwithcommies" "#commiecrusher"

all i said in the comments under his post was "cringe"

He messaged me telling me to fuck off then unfriended me lol

Cringe

that's the backbone of this country pal

they should learn they need to get vaxxed or we'll replace them with other high school dropouts who will.

Can't wait for that election -_-

it is what it is right

its just fucked that we have all these supply chain issues after the fraser valley in BC flooding, our grocery prices are the laughing stock of the entire world, yet in canada we're apparently forcing truckers to get the vaccine

im certainly not concerned with whether the truck driver had the vaccine or not, but the empty shelves at superstore

generally people on facebook dont like to be trolled btw

You gave as much effort that he deserved.

My idiot stepfather is a trucker and is at full mast over this. Dude swears he's quitting if forced to take "tHe JaB". My mom is pro Vax and about to leave him.

Losing your job, house, and family to OWN DA LIBS!!!

yaya. was sarcasm. all boils down to liability, can't blame people for not wanting to deal with folks not vaccinated.

DuranOfForcena posted...

gee maybe the truckers should just fucking get vaccinated then

don't blame the proven effective public health measures, blame the fuckwits who choose to flout them

thats bullshit, we were apparently fine without forcing it for a year in a half.

i've seen the r/canada threads where variations of what your saying here get upvotes, but thats not where we are right now

this isn't a policy thats really improving the world in any, or rather, this country

DuranOfForcena posted...

yeah shut the fuck up

thats not really a response

lets also note the performative pro union stance of the virtue signalling left, that they immediate abandon when its convenient for them

Fucking idiots

I mean for most of that year and a half there were no vaccines lol

I mean wanting people who travel everywhere and interact with people everywhere to be vaccinated it definitely a positive thing.

The union is in favor of vaccine mandates iirc lol

DuranOfForcena posted...

your ignorant brainpuke doesn't really deserve a response

lol look at this fucking bullshit

its fine man

I don't really see the benefit of that policy, it seems like its all downside, apparently canadas opening everything back up in march regardless

what was the result of any of this? infinite money printed, more government control in our lives

the vaccine barely even works

what is the union, is a union its leadership, or the members

what you see personally doesn't really matter lol

DuranOfForcena posted...

and there it is

have fun on your forced vacation from this websight because of spreading vaccine misinformation

i can talk down the middle, no opinions

the vaccine is 90% effective, doesn't totally prevent the virus, and stops being effective after 6 months, quicker if theres a new variant, right?

UndefeatedGOAT posted...

the vaccine is 90% effective

that's extremely good for a vaccine lol

fair enough

Man, I hate social media.

I do not give a damn what somebody I went to English class with in 8th grade thinks about how climate change is fake.

point being mandating on truckers is a bad play

During the protests, a buddy was going out to participate. I said "Be safe" and got a shitload of hate messages for it. Some people can't help but hate on social media. They don't want to hate. They need to hate.

Nah

this trucker convoy has completely unified all the people with bad takes on my facebook. i just unfollow them all but keep those friends numbers up

EDIT
Girl i went to highschool with reposted this:
Me, telling the story again to my grandkids in the year 2050:
the bad guys kept lying, kept stealing from the people.
They ruined all the shops and stores, and lots of the people had no jobs and lost so much
Your mom and dad had no school. The bad guys lied and said it wasn't safe. They couldn't see friends. They weren't allowed to play sports. They weren't allowed any fun activities. They had to stay home and try to learn while Grampy and I had to keep working. They were very lonely and sad. They missed their friends, they missed their classmates and teachers.
The bad guys kept lying and the people got mad. They were being punished for standing up for themselves and keeping themselves safe.
The bad guys kept telling everyone to be scared and mad at each other.
They wanted all the people to do something dangerous even if they didn't want to. Some people did do it, and some didn't.
They tried to force them.
They wouldn't let them do anything until they gave in.
But those people resisted.
They believed in protecting their body, and more importantly, protecting the things that your great, great Grampy went to the great war to protect.
Even the people who did it, didn't believe in the others being forced to do it. It wasn't right. But the bad guys didn't care. They were nasty and evil, and only cared about themselves and their big promise of money from the even more evil big company.
The bad guys had turned so bad, they forgot what was good.
What was right.
They forget to care about the people they were suppose to help.
And it seemed so sad and so scary that it would never stop and that people were mad at the bad guys, and asked them to stop. They begged. They showed them the truth over and over.
No one listened.
It was hard on everyones heart, because everyone saw the truth....but it wasn't enough.
Until one day, in the 3rd year, someone said no. I'm going to drive to the Capital and make the evil King listen to me.
The people said how? You are one man! He won't listen.
He said I will ask my friends to come with me.
His friends said yes, they wanted to help because they lost their jobs because of the bad guys and the evil King.
So that small group asked anyone else "do you want to come too?"
It seemed so scary. They were just a small group. How could they make a difference?
The man said "we'll take our big trucks. Our biggest trucks that bring all the peoples food and clothes and wood and supplies.
We will drive our big trucks and we will park them at the Kings door.
We won't leave until he listens.
Do you still want to come? It will be a long drive, and we might have to sit in the Capital for a long time?
And almost all at once, everyone said "we're coming.....
And they did. They started their trucks and left from every corner of Canada. They left their families and didn't know how long they would be. They met others on the road who joined them. They grew in numbers.
From dozens, the hundreds until over 60 thousand trucks went to stop the evil King."
...........<img src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t2e/1/16/1f633.png">
"Nanny? Then what? What happened??"
"Baby, after everyone trying is hard to beat the evil guys, using the law, using the truth and make them see, after all the lives ruined and time lost and businesses closed.
After all the lying, and rules that hurt everyone.
After all that.... it was the truckers who saved us.

Oh my god wtf

That's the same level of cringe as like

Like when people take a big movie speech

Like Aragorn at the Black Gate

But they switch a few words out to fit what situation they're currently using it for

like i cant fathom how someone can read this and be like "yup, this intelligently conveys my point"

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

of my facebook friends that are posting shit like this - all of them are white, all of them are parents of children under 10, all of them grew up in a small town of around 70K on the border of the USA - most of them still live in that town

Reminder that the greatest truck itself wears a mask.

that's kinda the basis for the whole problem. they find their own truth that fits what they want to believe.

well its tough, all these white trash people, or 9/11 truthers/flat earthers moving to whatever the next "thing" is on facebook kind of ruin everything. I still think its valid to question things though

don't get it twisted, i have my vaccines, I do everything I'm supposed to
