        As a C*nadian who saw the trucker protests I honestly don't think his trucker takes were that off-base, I think the protests were purposefully misrepresented by liberals to seem like it was a fascist movement to shelter the Liberals from criticisms about their covid response. A lot of leftists swallowed that wholesale, including here.:shrug-outta-hecks:

            Yeah that's ultimately right, for sure. They weren't necessarily all anti-vax but generally united against Canadian approach to covid. Their criticisms were multivalent and some of them had legitimate validity, but there were definitely a lot of people who thought engaging them was equivalent to advocating red-brown alliance and flamed Wolff as if that's what he was doing.

                Yeah for sure I'm not trying to say the protestors were good or had good takes at all, they were ultimately mostly just CHUD shitheads mostly motivated by the idea that their open resistance to the liberal consensus would make liberals mad and that's like their one lever of power. But that doesn't make them fascists and doesn't mean leftists engaging with them is bad, that's all.
