UPDATE 2/7/2022: yesterday's Freedom Convoy address to the nation.
Been watching some live-streams from Ottawa. Since there is a blackout being run by the increasingly irrelevant Legacy Media, lots of ordinary citizens with smart phones are picking up the slack. If you want to know what is happening in Canada's capital, there is any number of YouTube channels running video of the Freedom Convoy.
Watch what's going on, and take careful note of what is and what isn't happening in Ottawa. Compare and contrast to the George Floyd riots and Marxist takeovers of city blocks of 2020.
I have admittedly not watched hours and hours of footage, but in what I have watched, I have searched in vain for signs of:
- Burning buildings
- Burning flags
- Rock throwing
- Molotov cocktails
- Overturned cars
- Tweakers
- Twerkers
- Assaults
- Destruction of monuments
- Destruction of any property, public or private
- Vandalism
- Garbage on the streets
- Angry people
The fact that the legacy media isn't all over the Convoy story proves that none of these things are happening. On the other hand, these are things I have seen:
- Lots of big rigs (not, by the way, all honking simultaneously)
- Lots of people walking casually, apparently unafraid
- Lots of kids
- Bounce houses and play areas for kids
- Food tents
- Music playing
- People singing and dancing, even in the freezing cold
- People carrying signs and waving flags
- Clean streets (though lots of signs have been stuck -- not permanently -- on fences)
In short, a lot of ordinary citizens in solidarity and having a good time: this in itself is an act of defiance, since it is precisely the thing our Rulers and Masters have been trying to prevent us from doing for the last two years. Although the truckers and other citizens make no bones about what it is they are there to accomplish, the whole thing looks more like a gigantic street fair than a protest. This, apparently, is what an enemy occupation and a threat to Western civilization looks like from the point of view of the commie-pinko Trudeau regime, which applauds destroyers like BLM and Antifa.
Today is day 10 of the protest, and there is zero violence and zero destruction going on. If there is any violence or destruction in the Convoy, it will be the government that puts it there.
Which God forbid.
The govt has snipers on the rooftops. I wonder if it was a BLM or Antifa protest if they would have snipers on the rooftops.
ReplyDeleteCivil disobedience is something they weren't expecting. Any violence or mayhem will not be coming from the Freedom Convoy but from paid protesters whose agenda will be to discredit the Convoy. Paid, most likely by Soros and other pawns of the devil.
What do you think? Do you think the Canadian army and/or police would be willing to make war on their own citizens?
ReplyDeleteIn the U.S. I think the top brass are largely co-opted, but probably not most of the rank and file.
The cowards/puppets who are running our country will do their best to discredit this movement and would rather use force than actually negotiate, for to negotiate would mean admitting they are in the wrong, and that is something their egos and puppet masters will never allow.
DeleteWhat I would like to see is the police and any other forces actually say no, and side with the movement.
DeleteYou and me both, Shirley. I really hope the rank-and-file cops and soldiers will disobey orders to move on their own people. That is the big question: will they disobey?
DeleteI have noticed the Trudeau-ites in the government talking a big game and using some really inflammatory language in reference to the truckers. I think you're right, they would have preferred to see Ottawa burned to the ground by a leftist mob than negotiate with these peaceful protestors. I hope ordinary people see clearly what their rulers really think about them, because it is really them that their rulers are talking about.
