What's the point of this DC trucker convoy

Mandates are ending everywhere anyway. Wtf are they going to DC for?

Just seems like they're begging to be January 6'd.

Goddamn conservatives can be dumb sometimes. You got this amazing momentum going into the midterms and you decide to take a chit on it

Dude I want conservatives to win but I'm worried this will end up hurting Republicans in the midterms especially because mandates are pretty much done everywhere except LA and new York..

can you fly on a plane without showing the gestapo your papers? Can you go into your local hospital?

Its not even close to over, the government has a lot of doses to peddle and this wont stop until the contracts are fulfilled.

We need a lot more people to finally call bullchit on this whole thing or it just will never end, and you see what tactics they are using to stop any resistance, so you know damn well the protests are right.

I have lost faith in my fellow Americans and guess we all get what we deserve at this point because everyone is a pussy.

if they were gonna do it, they should have done it in LA and NY within days of the honkening in Ottawa and obviously before that one got crushed

ottawa brahs needed murrican brahs to protest concurrently, not 2 weeks afterwards lol

The real point is showing society what the government will do when their power and control is threatened.

Right wing protests generally get crushed by the democrat establishment, especially if it gets infiltrated by glowies which it undoubtedly will.
Jan 6 protestors are still lingering in prison after sham trials.

I don't know man. Hopefully I'm wrong but I just don't see this ending well.

Society knows.
Right wingers know we're an oppressed underclass.
Left wingers are going to cheer and applaud as the gestapo puts us into concentration camps.

The cEnTriSTs can go eff themselves. If anyone is a centrist at this point, they are beyond hope as well.

You think someone who is realistic about the world operates is beyond hope?

That's a pretty telling sign that you were deprived oxygen in the womb.

He's not wrong. Centrists/libertarians are ****ing idiots. These people will threw their vote away last election because "I didn't like either candidate". Meanwhile their personal views lean very much so to the right, but you just had to sit on the fence, didn't you?

Libertarians are worst than liberals imo. Pick a fukken side, because as it stands a third party doesn't have a chance.

I actually flew from Tennessee to Florida and did not wear a mask the entire trip and was not hassled about it. I'm not sure what these papers you're talking about are. Allegiant air for the win.

To a certain extent I agree with the OP - the truckers need to stay in their own state and fix it there. This is the US, going to the federal government to fix this is agreeing that the federal government has this power. They don't, the states do, so tell your governor to remember that and fix his ****. If Washington DC wants to wear masks forever like a bunch of *******s let them go ahead and do it. I don't care even a little bit what they require for their own local citizens.

We have no mandates at all where I live and haven't the past 2 years I've lived here. None. Get your local government and state government to tell Biden to **** off like it is supposed to be, don't just fall for the feds telling you they have this type of power. Federal mandates only work if states enforce them.

Hey come now. I'm not that dumb although I identify as Libertarian. Anyone looking at polling would know 3rd party had no chance. I knew a friend that threw his vote away and I told him how dumb it was for doing that. If 3rd party voted Trump he would have won. Until election processes change there's 0 point in voting 3rd party.

You have a party that wants to inject us against our will and do genital surgeries on our children .

You can't pick center when one side is a legit gestapo.
Republicans are spineless and weak but they are nowhere as bad as Democrats.

I'm specifically speaking to libertarian voters. I guess I didn't make that clear. No one's viewpoints are 100% in line with a particular party imo.

This makes a lot more sense. Do protests in the states that have the mandates. DC will crush them with the force of January 6 on steroids

You and everyone who thinks like this is the problem with politics in America today.

Republicans and Democrats both have perverted themselves into some kind of rabid political sports fan with no room for new ideology.

The country has been DYING for a viable third party for decades but as long as retards like you are around it makes harder to actually happen.

Keeping shilling for whatever “side” you believe in I suppose, just know that it’s make the country a far worse place.

There IS no 3rd party. American politics doesn't allow for it. This is by design.
The founding fathers as smart as they were didn't realize the two parties will grow into corrupt behemoths that will not allow for an escape beyond these two simple choices.

I WANT to see a 3rd party. The best you can hope for is a candidate with outside ideas taking over the party kind of like Trump turned the Republicans from a neoconservate party into a working class populist party.
Thats the best we'll get

Because the masses of sheep are convinced a vote for the third party candidate is like a vote for their opposing candidate. This is reinforced over and over again by all the talking heads, columnists, YouTubers, echo chambers and all those ****ing know it alls.
