Don't these losers have jobs or hobbies they should be doing instead of holding up traffic and causing a scene?

Supposedly the government is keeping them from doing their jobs, as opposed to just getting two needles and being able to continue doing their jobs.

This isn't in the interest of the working class. This is directly against the interest of the working class. The working class has born the brunt of the damage of COVID.


It is literally always in the interest of the working class to make their government fear them. An ideal government is one that is scared shitless that at any moment the people could rise up and fucking kill them. Keep boot licking though, Im sure multi billion dollar corporation appreciates you supporting making it mandatory to consume their product.

The people in question are a bunch of owner-operators who have the financial security to fuck off for days at a time, backed by five-figure anonymous donations. The convoyers are not, in any sense, representative of the working class, the majority of which is vaccinated.

For example, one of its leaders previously led an anti-union protest that tried to break a picket line

You know, that reminds me of what was said during the Black Lives Matter demonstrations a couple of years ago, about 5% of which were violent, too.

Seems to me that this event is unremarkable. We had a massive, national display of civil disobedience in the summer of 2020 that led to significant political changes.

This here is just a flash in the pan in comparison.

Oh I agree that governments should fear their workers but protesting COVID vaccine mandates doesn't serve the interests of the working class. At all. Blue collar workers have died at a far higher rate than any other group because we had to keep to work to serve people who went into hiding when the pandemic started. This nonsense is also making it impossible for blue collar workers to go out and earn their livings.

These truckers are bunch of right wing chuds who've been flying the flag of a failed slaver state, swastikas, let's go Brandon banners, all of which are the symbols of class traitors, cowards, and bootlickers.

These are owner operators, meaning they have the money and time to waste to inconvenience people who actually have to go to work every day.

And this, in a nutshell, is the sort of high-handed, catastrophic, virtue-signalling, smarter-than-thou moralizing that has caused the Democratic party, and left-wing governments of multiple other countries, to shed working class votes for the past decade.

The nazi cucks in the protest are just that. Cucks. They show up everywhere now, and no a mandate is not in the interest of the working class. Its in the interest in shareholders creating a never ending product.

This is the same as saying having an agency like OSHA isn't in the interest or workers, it's in the interests of the manufacturers of safety equipment and equally as stupid.

Several. I live in Saint Louis and have friends that live in Ferguson.

Then you have probably been on one side or another of what I am about to relate. I've been to about 10-15, about half of them gay rights related in some way, some nonideological to raise awareness on a current issue (often a death), and a smattering of causes on the political right. Almost invariably at any remotely ideological or partisan protest, there are other protesters whose views I find extremist and apalling, and they are LOUD. They bring signs that are very provacative. "Tax the church!" "Abolish ICE!" "Al Sharpton did this, this, and, this, but not ONE MINUTE for this cause." I am embarassed by these signs and chanters. Because I don't believe in over half the stuff that is said the loudest or promoted by the most organized or prominent people who show up--and they're rarely the people who organized the protest in the first place.

And so I have learned when going to a protest, to bring my own sign. I don't necessarily stay home out of fear of encountering extremists. I go to advance my own agenda and to tell both other protesters and the public what it is--so that they see what it isn't.

If I were worried about encountering extremists, then I wouldn't be able to protest for gay marriage, or against DADT, or for mourning and appreciation of the NYPD, or for continuing the war on terrorism. I would be staying home and, one, giving a deceptive impression of the amount of support on an issue, and two, ceding the field to the most unreasonable elements. I believe reasonable people need to come out and be heard, and in as large numbers as possible. My concern with your post is that it seems to offer no way for that to occur.

Yes, I should give a correction. It was actually a protest of President Obama's decision to close down Guantanamo Bay and try the 9/11 attackers in civilian court in Manhattan.

What a silly man

They posted a video of a statement by Lindsey Graham and the crowd cheered. In New York. Hell yeah, hell yeah, that was my moment!
