Trudeau, a victim of workers?
In Justin Trudeau's mind, he's always the victim.
Trudeau, the boyish, blackface-wearing prime minister of Canada, views himself as an oppressed underclass. His oppressors are Canadian truckers — working people with concerns about his vaccine mandates and his long-standing border lockdown. He believes that by staging a protest in his capital city of Ottawa, the truckers are committing treason — or something very close to it.
For parking their trucks outside Parliament, making noise, and engaging in civil disobedience, these truckers have been accused by Trudeau and his fellow Liberal Party comrades of "insurrection." He has accused them of attempting to overturn an election. He has threatened violent crackdowns and treated them as if their protest is not a protected activity. He has sent the police out to steal their fuel in hopes that the Canadian winter will do the rest and cause them to pick up and leave.
Trudeau's government is invoking emergency powers that, in the past, have only been used in times of war and against terrorists. Canadians expressing support for the truckers on Facebook are even receiving visits from the provincial police at their homes — the People's Republic of Canuckistan is apparently more than just a jokey name.
Some left-wing American journalists and commentators have been even worse, openly urging violence and property destruction as retribution for the truckers' act of civil disobedience against Trudeau's regime. Nothing makes leftists angrier than when their own tactics are used against them.
...
I have little empathy for Trudeau and his supporters. The mandates are a mistake that they refuse to admit. What this demonstrated is the left has unleashed its inner control freak and can't get a grasp on why people are resisting it. They seem to think that FCovid gives them an excuse to take away freedom.
