Quoted: I read his thread. Seems like he's trying to think but he calls this problem with the truckers an outside context problem. Outside context problem: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OutsideContextProblem "An Outside Context Problem was the sort of thing most civilisations encountered just once, and which they tended to encounter rather in the same way a sentence encountered a full stop." — Iain M. Banks, Excession The Outside Context Problem is, quite simply, a curveball that no one saw coming; more strictly, it is a curve ball that nobody could possibly have seen coming. I'll bet you most of arf and most everyone to the right of mao in canada and the usa saw the announcement of the vaccine mandates for the truckers and instantly thought something along the lines of "this will not end well and the truckers may go on strike." You have to be in a very thick bubble to have not seen a pushback from the truckers coming. That makes me wonder about the guy who made the twitter posts you linked. Doesn't make what he said wrong, but I find the idea of "nobody could have seen anything like this coming" risible. View Quote We saw that back when mandates for helthcare workers were first brought up. |

My wife is Canadian and glued to watching the protest all day long. She is rooting for the protesters. Her family lives in Toronto and Ottawa. They have sucked on the Socialist tit for so long they are helpless and angry as they see the corruption of their dreams erupt in their faces. She just asked, "What price are you willing to pay for your freedom?" They are speechless.

Quoted: Shit I forgot to call them "Little People", I don't in any way mean they're less important TBH I really do view this through the lens of Sherman's campaign through the south. He brought the war to the doorsteps of the people who supported it, in the hopes of throwing it into their faces to end it. He took at Atlanta and broke their back in terms of material supply, and political supply too. The whole time he wrote how basically believed he was God's instrument punishing them for the war. I actually view the truckers in Ottawa through the same lens. The city-elite folks who told people "Don't worry, the insurance money will give you a few pennies back after BLM rioters burned down your businesses as we clapped " are getting a fraction of a taste and they can't handle it. Good. It's literally these city folks, who brought these problems onto the remainder of the nation, and now they're hearing about it. Good.

It occurs to me that the reason the leftys are in such a conundrum is that they use the threat of force from a small minority of people to impose their will on the rest of "civil" society. The power hungry people at the top believe they need only snap their fingers and whatever idiotic thing they want will happen and the people will go along with it. The reason this protest is so "dangerous" is that it spectacularly points out that the government only functions with the consent of the governed. That is an anathema to the way totalitarians think.
When the .gov backs down, and they will, it will open the eyes of many both in Canada and around the world that governments can only exist and exert power with the consent of the governed. When that consent is revoked, the government is powerless. That is the threat to globalist, authoritarian control these truckers and others represent. I hope they make their dominance over the .gov up there complete and total. When the .gov is rendered impotent, there is freedom. |

In all seriousness, it feels like this situation is about to enter the most critical (and dangerous) phase. If Canada.gov and lil' Castro are truly paralyzed/cornered/panicked, it means them taking some type of real, next-level action is not far off. Things could go one of two ways:
A) Competent heads prevail, they capitulate and begin to de-escalate by (essentially) acknowledging the will of the people and making changes. B) They will move to the violent put-down of what they consider rebellion of the serfs against the rulers and ruling class. Either way, once they believe they're completely cornered and out options, action will come. They seem to be approaching this inflection point quickly. Keep those convoys/people in your thoughts and prayers. They're making this stand for ALL of us. |

I think they are trying to decide whether to break this up through subversive means( infiltrate and make the protesters look bad) or overt means( move in the cops and remove the protesters).

View Quote The Canadian military has already stated they will lay their arms down and join the protest if they are asked to put down the movement. Many LEO's are in the same camp. The government has essentially become combat ineffective and their options for a way out is to capitulate or get booted out. They will capitulate first, and get booted out shortly thereafter. They screwed the pooch and are done. |

One thing I like to point out is the right is original, the left is iterative. Trump, the collapse of Kabul, and the trucker convoy are things reasonable people that paid attention could have foreseen, the problem is noticing those sorts of things before they happen is a low-prestige activity for blue tribe SWPLs because it demonstrates lack of faith. It's an interesting thread because it demonstrates blue tribe mindset, and how they're susceptible to out of context problems that really aren't. |
