I have a question...how did he not get arrested for his role in the illegal protests? He did the same thing as all the others, but skates off free? Politicians should be held to higher standards when they join a group who's mission is to overthrow the government, yet he keeps his job and stays out of jail? And he uses that freedom to spew this toxic BS?

I saw a post today on Facebook comparing the war in Ukraine to brain cancer and the mandates in Canada to liver disease and saying both are horrible and wanting people to stop bringing up that the war is true loss of freedom.

I didn't even bother responding because it's a waste of time.

There's no comparison. None.

I’ll never understand why they feel the need to make these poorly constructed comparisons to somehow further their misguided agenda. You know what war is like, it’s like war, and liver disease is like ####ing liver disease.

Why are these dumbasses still protesting when Alberta is essentially lifting all restrictions as of March 1st? Just goes to prove that this bulls*** was never about mandates or restrictions. It was always just to use the pandemic as an excuse to spout their stupid far-right nonsense.

They're dumb.

Most of them have now shifted to the "BUT NOT ALL FEDERAL MANDATES" talking point but ultimately it's because they're dumb. They're lonely weirdos who've found a cause together and they're going to stuck with it no matter what.

Best idea on Reddit was in opposition to these morons (aka the rest of us) go before them on Saturday and take up every single free parking space so when they come in they’ll just be driving around all afternoon looking for a spot.

I wonder if they're still going to protest after the mask mandate lifts?

Begging to think they just like protesting.

They don't know what the heck they are even protesting anymore.

For a while now, it's just been a bunch of loud-mouthed like-minded weirdos clinging together because no one else'll talk to them anymore.

Judging by all the flags stating they wanted to have sex with Trudeau, I think it was about Man Dates.

It's as much about the mandates as a strip joint is about the dancing.

It's purpose for the majority of them. Humans desire that.
