Does anyone know what they're protesting?

Mask mandates are gone. Vaccine mandates never existed. They're not interested in traditional conservative values like limited government and decreased spending. I don't know what their goal is other than to burn fossil fuels.

Own the libs, I guess?


They were very successful in getting Canada to lift the restrictions. 🙂

I assumed they went home or back to work but I haven't seen anything about them since the war in Ukraine started. 🤷

Yeah; seems kind of pointless. Except for some fast-dwindling exceptions in places like SF and NY, the war over government-sponsored COVID restrictions is basically over (though we'll see about the airplane mask mandate in 2 weeks).

Maybe it's FOMO after watching the Canadians having all that fun?


ooohh the Americans are doing it now?

Why?

No one knows.

Back in the day I used to drive the DC beltway. Anyone doing it voluntarily is certifiably insane.

Also, the intent was to disrupt traffic, but it seems like they were asleep when most people started their 5:30 am commute. The freedom convoy didn't start until 3.5 hours later. Where's the work ethic?
