    CHAZ is probably a pretty good analog.

    Definitely illustrative of how the politics of the issue determine what people think about them. Probably most on the right wing were very critical of CHAZ, while most of the left have been critical of the "Freedom Convoys."

    this is interesting ^^ 16-18% of Canadian truckers are south AZN, they are all vaccinated, they don't identify with the anti-vax thing , and they are experiancing rascism by white trucker scum.

    Is it like alt-country, so they have nicer rugged clothes and cleaner, more brodozerry pickups? And hotter girlfriends?

    On the transCanada route I think that is a low number passing through Golden

    If we're going to call it what it really is then let's just go with "Reich"...
    Go that way really REALLY fast. If something gets in your way, TURN!

    It seems mindblowing until you realize that the extremes of both facism and marxism are both totalitarianism.

    Start calling it polarization instead of the alt right. Its not a separate thing than an increasingly polarized left. Unless you are just saying the problem is prople who disagree with you.

    Don't tell me. Has this so called "alt-right" risen at the same time the middle class in the western world has been impoverished and then insulted? What a coincidence.

    One, correlation isn’t causation.

    And two, wait… isn’t it your usual song and dance that Repubs win because Dems support candidates who are insufficiently pure and uncompromising, you know, Bernie versus two dozen gradations of Dem evil? And suddenly now you’re some kind of Bret Stephens bemoaning that Dems don’t coddle and normalize the sometimes toxic views of “real” (conservative) Americans enough?? Which is it?

    No, it's because Dems put forward candidates that are only concerned with aligning themselves with the suburban middle class voter with money (Schumer: "For every voter we lose in western Pa., we gain two in the Philly burbs") and have discarded the working and lower middle class and unions and small business people that used to be their base. Now they're losing the Latin vote they thought would be their new blood, because, you know, latin people work and pay taxes and are trying to get by in this capitalist dystopia America is becoming, too.

    Truck drivers used to make a decent middle class living, with benefits from an employer. The job sucked, but, it was a living. The job still sucks, but now they're all independent contractors playing the gig worker life. Of course they're pissed off.

    A man who has blown all his options can’t afford the luxury of changing his ways. He has to capitalize on whatever he has left, and he can’t afford to admit — no matter how often he’s reminded of it — that every day of his life takes him farther and farther down a blind alley…

    Wow. You’re gonna be a real hit at Charlie and Camille’s on Thursday. Glad you have a forum to workshop your talking points.

    CHAZ was way more extreme.

    They put up barricades. Burnt a police station. Declared their own sovereign state.

    The Canuck trucker fucks parked trucks and honked horns.

    They both suck.

    Like I said before. Protest. Go home. Protest the next day.

    This whole “occupy” shit is bullshit.

    Indeed, and so they reward the party that took the lead in selling the middle class down the river with their undying loyalty. Real class struggle, and merely thinking coherently, is just too damn hard, so it makes complete sense that they trust the likes of Tucker Carlson, Peter Thiel, and what’s-his-name the former prez, to make things right for them. Good plan!

    Just like how someone way, way down on their luck might send their last dollars to a Nigerian prince with a fortune to recover. Totally understandable! And yet, not likely to help matters for them.

    But according to you, it’s a lot simpler than that… It’s my fault that they increasingly support fascism and oligarchy, because I say unkind things about idiocy like this anti-vax trucker nonsense.

    So apparently the GoFundMe account behind this was hacked and revealed that it was basically three white supremacists behind this “protest”.
    True?

    The whole point of the “alt right” branding was it was racist trash mainstream republicans didn’t want to be associated with, but wanted the backing of, you ignorant slut

    I strongly disagree with the white supremacists who have rebranded themselves the “alt right”. And yes, historically they are a very serious problem.

    When someone tells you there’s a polarized hard left they are telling you they are a lieing sack of shit, or a moron who lives in an alternate reality
