The elites’ morally obscene response to the Canadian trucker convoy

The videos on YouTube and Rumble are inspiring. I have watched dozens of them.

In 2018 or 2019 I remember many media stories that automated trucks would replace truck drivers on our nation’s highways within ten years. I wondered at the time why this story was being played for weeks since it seemed to me with the deteriorating infrastructure having computers at the wheel of every tractor trailer roaring down the pothole covered interstate highways at 70 mph would result in frequent wrecks, destruction and death. Not to mention maneuvering through often narrow suburban and urban streets in urgent need of repair.

Was the push at the time to implement autonomous vehicles a sign our elites recognized their rule could be threatened by truckers going on strike? The articles at the time lauded the technology saying it would be perfectly safe when logic and common sense says it would not be safe. Not unlike today’s promises of the safe vaccine for all.

Watch what happens when the worker bees stop supplying the hive. Truckers, shelf stockers, shipping and receiving clerks and warehouse workers are all the sort of vital workers the elite look down on.

I’ve never really needed a singer, an actor, a tiktok celebrity or even a philosophy professor. I do like bein* able to get groceries, gasoline and fuel oil.

It’s going to be fun to see who the people blame when that happens, I predict you can kiss the current Canadian Gov. goodbye.

If American truckers would surround every state capitol and stay for a season, this country’s madness would soon cease.

Go truckers!

“Canadians do like their social welfare programs.”

Just like the Europeans who had the luxury of being protected by the U.S. for seventy years. They spent the extra money on social programs and infrastructure.

The elites hate average working people.

They prove it every day and in every way.
