Make no mistake - the true intent of this convoy (beyond the already visible consequences of taking our cities and economy hostage) is to gain notoriety, additional followers, delegitimize the very principles of our democratic process and governing bodies, with an endgame to restore white nationalism. Ultimately, the degree of success in which they will be able to accomplish that, is not the point. The point is, can you stomach supporting people that hold those values, and what that says about you.

Oh man, this is literally one of the best posts ever made on CP. It actually restores my faith in society a bit after some of the junk posted on here going back and forth with a lot of "well, what about.." "Well, they're just trying to".
I really, really hope the post was read in it's entirety by everyone viewing this thread (I suspect not), but the last paragraph quoted here especially hit an important note, for those that don't read longer posts.
