Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

And while I agree with that statement, I would like to ask how the convoy approached that in any way. They didn't attack any of the provincial leaders who were at issue with most of their (non US-required) laws.
Attacking homeless shelters doesn't send this message. Carrying Nazi flags doesn't send this message. Carrying Confederate Flags doesn't send this message Attacking people for wearing a mask, which according to the convoy messaging is body autonomy, and counter to their stated goals, doesn't send this message. Urinating on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier doesn't send this message. Dancing on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier doesn't send this message. Trying to force a man to 'Do a dragon dance' because he's Asian doesn't send this message. Threatening to murder the Prime Minister for an American Law doesn't send this message. Harassing and attacking citizens of Ottawa doesn't send this message. Desecrating the Terry Fox Memorial doesn't send this message.
This:
Doesn't send that message.
How about this?
Do those things send that message?
That fundraiser that 'Trudeau' took the money from? It's either been returned to donators (those rich white supremacists from the States being most of it) or held in Escrow until the, you know, civil court cases of the people of Ottawa against them for their totally non-violent protest. And it was innitially halted by GoFundMe.
You need to look really carefully about what you've been lead to believe here.
(I can save you a bit of searching, but rich white supremacists are behind most of it. In fact, just about every issue in your life you've been told is an immigrants fault, or Trudeau's fault, or 'the left's fault, or 'woke's fault, etc, is all some rich white conservative trying to get you to in-fight with the other poors, of which I am also a member.)
