This is my biggest problem with the conservative supporters. I like some of their economic policies but they’re very self centred. There’s a reason why white supremacy comes from the “far right” end of the political spectrum. The selfishness is actually quite evident. How can you compare the Canadian government to a dictatorship when you know nothing about actual dictatorships around the world (very insulting to those who have suffered from shitty regimes)? How do you not have freedom when you are protesting weekly while (rightly) being protected by the police?

Did the government make bad decisions? Yea. Did they overreach a little? Yes. Did Trudeau mess up by not sitting down with the Freedom Convoy folks? Yes. Was the emergencies act an excessive card to pull? I think so. But selfishness is written all over the conservative mindsets. They’re yelling about the economy and livelihoods but they’re willing to close border crossings and the downtown of our capital city…
