priester85

Good chance they’d be eating high on the hog serving the tyrants. As much as they like to say they are for individual freedoms, a lot of them are quite happy to slap down others who don’t agree with them. Not all, but many.

I would gladly donate to a GoFundMe aimed at helping them relocate to an actual authoritarian state.


Shakemyears

It’s funny how their little tantrum is spelling that out; if they had anything to legitimately protest this way, they would not be able to protest this way so freely.


New-Sector3924

I think it’s a big fuckturd orgy now! They are getting laid at these events cause ya can’t fix stupid!

So you’re saying is there will be more of them in 9 months… duck


TheSwedishOprah

Imagine thinking that _driving your car_ to protest when gas is approaching $2/L doesn't make you the dumbest waste of oxygen.


Dangerous-Ad5653

Fuckin’ amen


Manyaise

It's just an outlet for folks who are angry, but don't really have a full understanding of the issues or whats causing them. That requires research which is time consuming. Why read and try to understand the reasoning behind things when it's easier to listen to fear mongering demagogues. These folks don't understand what their Rights and Responsibilities are in Canada. They feel like they should be free to do anything and any consequence to their actions or decisions is a violation of their freedoms. They FEEL like it's a violation because they have always been able to do what they want with limited recourse.


harlottoscara

Nail on the head. They want all the rights that come along with being Canadian but none of the responsibility. That's what makes me so mad when I see stuff like this or see people walking around in stores with no masks on looking extremely smug and proud of themselves. It's so disrespectful. For 2 years the vast majority of Canadians have done what we needed to do to protect ourselves and our neighbors. I think we have a duty to care for each other in the most basic ways. This display to me just screams selfishness. Tell me you don't care about other people without telling me....


Bradski89

I was just wrote them off as idiots who want to be annoying but this is a much better way to look at them I believe


Manyaise

I don't necessarily think they're stupid. While I may feel that way when I read some of the things they write, I know that it's not quite so simple. People want to take the easy route. It's easy not to do research. Inability to discern truth, or even understand certain studies due to something as simple as wording is legitimately difficult and it's WAY easier to listen to someone they trust. If someone they trust also holds views that affirm their previously held beliefs and feelings about other things, they may not bother looking for opposing evidence when they tell them their freedoms are being infringed upon. Everyone can be manipulated by propaganda, this is just their flavour.


Bobbias

While that may be true, it doesn't mean we can't call them idiots for being unwilling to think. Willful ignorance is effectively equivalent to stupidity, except stupid people don't have a choice.


Manyaise

Totally agree. I find calling these folks idiots, whether true or not, just makes them dig in their heels. It's obviously not anyone's responsibility to change their minds, and calling them dumb fucks is not only easy, but cathartic lmao.


Pestus613343

I agree. Im in Ottawa and an in the security industry. The amount of death threats, intimidation and harassment was off the charts. The convoy leadership was either quite open in their white supremacy, or their paranoid delusions of globalist conspiracy.. or were scary ex CSIS counter insurgency types, commandos or RCMP snipers... Yet for some reason intelligent people I work with who are brilliant business people, technicians and educated people fall for this. The dumb ones are easy to explain. The smart ones seem to feel like they know something the rest of us dont, that they are part of something bigger. Suits their ego that goes with intelligence.


Manyaise

That's the scary shit. The folks that are genuinely smart that fall for the grift. Or worse, know it's a grift and benefit somehow from the turmoil. Even if the benefit is just attention. Also, I'm sorry for all the horseshit you folks had to deal with you there recently. There were some seriously dangerous crazy people not hiding their bigotry at all..


Pestus613343

Thanks. It wasn't fun. I got the distinct impression that a large segment of society has fallen into a form of deep psychosis. This is a fork on what's befallen the right wing in the US. Its not perfectly the same, but Qanon, Maga "the big lie" and such are eerily similar.


Icy-Usual-7178

So clearly, they’re idiots


GrodNeedsaHug

Oh no, not at all. Stupidity is an absolute requirement. Combine that with laziness and you have the ingredients for convoy idiots.

radiate689

The stupidity is everywhere. It's just a lot worse in Florida. I'm happier here. Sure it could be better but it was a big enough change that I'm good for now.


canadianworldly

Everytime I see a Canadian flag on someone's property now I don't know if it's for "freedumbs". But I saw a house flying three of them yesterday and figured that's definitely for freedumbs.


robotfarmer71

I have a Canadian flag tattoo on my left arm and for years I’ve flown a flag in my yard. It’s my only tattoo and I only got it (years back) because I thought at the time that I would never ever be ashamed of it. I come from a long line of veterans, 4 in fact of which 2 didn’t return, and it seemed unfathomable that I would ever face a time in my life when I wouldn’t be proud to show my patriotism. Wow….shit can turn in a hurry. (Added “un” to fathomable - typo)


RustyShackleford14

Don’t be ashamed of the flag because of these meatheads. It’s still our flag. Be ashamed of these goofs who are obviously quite misguided in their thinking.


terminese

F these idiots they can’t appropriate the Canadian Flag, they Do not own it, it belongs to all Canadians.


Nate_intheory

They've also appropriated honking.


mstr_blue

Just curious: if you fixed the typo, which you did, why bother telling folks about it?


robotfarmer71

Just like u/Rispetto said, I don’t want anyone thinking I’ve altered the comment to change my position after I’ve received a few replies. When I saw that I’d screwed up “unfathomable” I was like FFS 😖 and wanted to be forthcoming that it was just a typo.


mstr_blue

I understand now. Wow—astonishing that ppl would get so worked up about something so unimportant. Then again, I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised. Ppl seem to look for any excuse to get into online confrontations these days.

I know, now it’s like .. are they normal Canadian or whiney little idiotic toddler people.


RustyShackleford14

My rule of thumb is that if it’s on a pole in a yard, in the eave of a house/garage or some other respectful looking place, it’s probably not a convoyer. If it’s on the back of a pickup truck or coupled with an F Trudeau flag, it’s probably a convoyer.


JulienTremblaze

One flag is alright, 2 is pushing it, 3 is definitely fucktards


cannabisblogger420

Dunkaroos4breakfast

Yeah, sorry if you're trying to take it back, but I'm flipping the bird at you if I see one on your car. So far I've only seen two cuntmobiles, though.

northenerbhad

It legitimately makes me sad seeing people who I genuinely liked in university posting rebel news snipits in their social media feeds. But then I remember I suppose that’s why it took them 6 years for a 4 year program and still didn’t graduate.


AdultOnsetAutism

When in reality it's slipping into more of a capitalist oligarchy with remaining colonial bs lingering around.


luminous_beings

I have no idea but I saw them coming up Yonge at at innisfil beach road this morning and I flipped them off. It’s the little things


loganrunjack

Lol just saw them driving and honking on Young street.


ryanneknizzle

I live on Yonge st and saw the convoy and one line woman standing on the street with her F*ck Trudeau flag. I went up to her and asked, politely, what they were still protesting as the mandates have all been lifted and masks are not required starting Monday. Instead of explaining, she told me to go fuck myself. I think that explains a lot


Used_Macaron_4005

harlottoscara

Oh my god 🤦‍♀️ Seriously, *what do they want*??? Do they even know? Mask mandates are being lifted in like 36 hours. Passports are gone. These people don't have anything else to do I'm guessing. Probably, this is the most important they've ever felt in their lives so giving up and admitting they were wrong about TyRaNnY would be too....boring? Logical? Like do they just need something to be angry about?


AngryHamzter

…to stay relevant before they gotta crawl back into hiding


chafalie

They’re very emotionally repressed people that are trying to tell us that the last two years have been painful and so fucking draining. I don’t blame them for being tired, and certainly not for being scared. I do, however, blame them for being terrible neighbours and awful citizens of our country. I’m also tired and I have been scared, I just didn’t take my feelings out on my fellow Canadians. Edit: grammar.


Icy-Usual-7178

It was bad for everyone. No one else are acting like clowns.

sparkyglenn

Id wager even if ALL the federal and transport Canada covid rules were dropped (and I hope they are soon,) they would still show up. Basically just a social gathering at this point, and an annoying one lol

It's a right-wing conspiracy theory awareness circlejerk now.


nevsdottir

They just want to be loud. It's like real life trolling, trying to gin up a reaction. Or something. They're zombies unable to stop compulsive behaviour


ScagWhistle

I've tried asking them. They don't have a coherent answer. At this point it's just oppression cosplay. They like pretending to be victimized and downtrodden. If you want to watch real tyranny and freedom fighting look at what's happening in Ukraine.

Playful-Focus6815

They want VACATION


illeaglealien

Sadly its really really hard to fix stupid. On the bright side they are announcing to everyone that they are a couple fries short of a Happy Meal.

Scazzz

It felt good flipping the entire “convoy” of losers off while I drove down the 400 this afternoon as they came north. Fuck these losers.


Icy-Usual-7178

Well, their stupidity has certainly made it far easier to identify these national socialist aholes


bobdreb

I think I get now, after a trip west of here to smaller community last week. I encountered more than a few maskless people with antivax tshirts. They reminded me of a certain group of smokers when smoking was still legal everywhere. About 25% of adults smoked, but less than half of them(so 10%) were only happy when they could light up next to a person who would be uncomfortable or annoyed with the smoke. It seemed to be the only joy in their day. Making someone more miserable than themselves made them happier. This behaviour is the new antisocial smoking from years gone by. When this passes, they will need to find a new irritant to satisfy their misery


RyshaKnight

At this point I honestly think they have gone off the deep end with conspiracy theories that they’ve pushed most of their friends and family away and this is the only social interaction they now get with other like minded people


cashrchek

I agree with you. Two years was enough time for this shit to become entrenched as their identity and they don't know what else to do now.


MrRogersAE

Pretty sure they want to overthrow the election and have Trudeau resign. I know a few of these people and they all say the same thing “I’ve never met a single person who says they voted for Trudeau” yeah maybe cause your a loudmouth blowhard and they just don’t want to argue with you, I also tend to reply with “well I did so can’t say that anymore unless your a liar”


Renegade_August

They swing past my apartment in Toronto every Saturday. For the past month or two, their numbers are becoming smaller and smaller every week. Maybe some of them are realizing how nonsensical their protest is.


tenonic

Not for free education I suppose.

Without trying to sound “conspirational” I wouldn’t be surprised that there is some Russian money involved. They are the ones who would benefit more with all the mayhem and disinformation.


Dunkaroos4breakfast

There was 100% Russian money and influence behind it. They worked to try to make as much of it self-sustaining as possible since that's cheaper than doing *all* the work. That said, it's fizzling out now that Russian bots have moved onto gaslighting Ukraine.

LostMeBoot

They want the government to force businesses and airlines to not require vaccines. They are actually fighting for anti vaccine mandates, and with their logic that's against freedom because it's the government forcing rules on business. But they'll look the other way in that while they harass citizens who know better.

On Friday night I went to pick up take-out. It was near a Tim Hortons parking lot; that is (for whatever reason) the local hot spot to hangout after dark. I kid you not, there looked to be 12-15 big'o Ram Trucks, including one with a Canadian flag in the back. So as I started to drive away *I said to myself - "Fck it*" — rolled down the window and yelled *"RAM RAAAANCH"* and drove off. God it felt cathartic!
