Russians protesting in Moscow right now are brave as well, they are facing an oppressive regime and potentially jail / death.

The contrast really underlies the unnecessary selfishness that was the convoy.
I said it throughout. We have it so good here. Even in a pandemic with restrictions, we are essentially living in luxury here in comparison to many places without having to worry about our well-being and basic needs being threatened by real oppression (which the liberal government is NOT).
It all stems from a lack of gratitude and permeating sense of entitlement after being coddled with freedom and safety for decades.
