I'm glad you found the discussion engaging. I just wanted to share this alternate perspective on the trucker convoy. I tend to agree with the author, and also see this as an overall indicator that things are perhaps not as bleak as they may seem: https://www.anarchonomicon.com/p/the-truckers-won-everything

Thank you for the encouragement, sir.

I was transfixed by the Canadian Trucker protests, from the very beginning. I had heard about it before the convoy actual got underway. After they arrived in Ottawa, I watched live casts every night, sometimes for hours at a time. It was marvelous to behold. Living in Northern vermont at the timer, and being a mere 3+ hour drive away from the capitol, I wanted to join in. Alas, it wasn't my fight. My fight is in this country. I watched with dismay as Trudeau sent in his foreign legion goons and smash the thing apart. I later went down to Haggerstown, MD to take part in my country's absolutely appalling attempt at a similar action, The People's Convoy, I didn't even spend the night. It was a true Folding Chair Rebellion.

I agree: the Canadian Trucker protest was largely successful. We need the people to undertake large actions of that very sort, simultaneously around the entire country.

Take care.
