Having lived in cities with legendary congestion, if they were driving around at the speed limit, that would make commutes much faster.
ironmandrew
I commute through this area 5-6 days a week. The extra volume of traffic will bring it to a standstill.
NacLac
NOVA resident here. If they think they can drive the minimum limit to slow down traffic, they are mistaken. Rush hour is regularly 5-10
Rithale87
I am confused... this is barely a drop in the bucket compared to our regular days. 5 miles 5 lanes wide is a regular backup here
GiantAssfro
Seriously. I wonder how they are gonna deal with all the express toll lanes on 495 too
TralalaAssana
Our condolences, from Ottawa

Thank you
MoldyCrow
Yeah, good luck reaching minimum speed limit on the beltway during workday rush hour. They won’t break 45 mph.

Fuck up my commute, I'll fuck up your truck. I have to work, these welfare queens have time to do this. Fuck you.

All this is is a bunch of sadists getting a kick out of hurting city folk. That's it. They could just continue to live the milktoast 1/2

Lives they always have but they can't help themselves when they see an opportunity to harass and harm people they've been programmed to hate

The Canadian convoy was never about mandates - it's a right wing assault on government, plain and simple.

I saw on the late show with Steven Colbert that they did a fact check on this and found that it was actually pickled tomato’s LOL

And, "oh no these gas prices" while they drive gas guzzlers in circles.

Can we misdirect these mouth-breathers to downtown DC, and see how they get along with residents that don't suffer entitled white assholes?

ArcaneConjecture
Actually, part of their identity is "we don't care about global affairs". That's why Republicans are divided on Ukraine.
trippingthelightfantastic
"We do like the Russian money, however."
PurveyorOfInsanity
If they're protesting non-existent mandates, does that mean they want the mandates *back*?
TheEvenPrez
Reactionaries love victimhood because their only argument is whataboutism. If they aren't 'oppressed' they have not counter to those who are
TheEvenPrez
To them whoever is 'right' is the person most justified in the wrongs they are doing
TheWombatStrikesAgain
It also plays into the fragments of christianity they managed to remember, specifically martyrdom. Of course, their fantasy is not really(1)
ArcaneConjecture
Some Christians seem to think that if people don't hate them, they're somehow "doing it wrong".
TheWombatStrikesAgain
death, but taking revenge. Kinda like that other religious group with all the guns and the trucks. If only I could remember their name...(2)
ArcaneConjecture
You will remember it, Inshallah...!

If they don't have the power they think they deserve, then it MUST mean that someone else has it OVER them... :P /s

Irish Nationalist Terrorists planned to destabilize Canada to force the UK to free Ireland. They made Canada a Dominion instead to handle it
reverendrender
Weird way to say freedom fighters
Diablo1099
I'm Irish, I know my history. They can be both. But I'd imagine to Canadian's they'd be terrorists and for good reason.
BlairT1
Can we get a bunch of those tank traps and spikes over here too plz?
Kenbamazingbutprobablywontbe
Theyre protesting mandates in canada basically... and we literally dropped all the mandates in most places already so idk
Pentjotal
Canadian trucker were protesting against an american law that Canada was implementing starting january 22nd...go figure

Its so stupid.. all pf it

Remember when Repubs railed against BLM blocking traffic?

And wanted to pass laws making it legal to run over protesters in roadways?

Not just wanted to -- FL actually did.

I have never been more embarrassed to be an American with these idiots humiliating themselves and the US on the world stage rn

Right now or like since 2014?

So far...

Honestly, it’s been embarrassing for years. This is just more special embarrassment

Trump praising the Nazi tiki torch marchers was the low point for me
Iblamemyparentstoo
I think with everything going on with Ukraine how can they show their faces crying about their "freedums" when their people are dying
scruffy14
100% with you.
euxneks
I am Canadian, we still have these numbnuts.
SimpDaddyDee
Count yourself lucky they're ineffectual, and other news will eclipse it. Here in Canada ours really desecrated our good name to the world
Iblamemyparentstoo
Well considering it was funded mostly by Americans we owe you a huge apology!

Luckily they're not getting much coverage globally, as the Canadian ones did a few weeks back.
Iblamemyparentstoo
They recently came through my city and it got very little attention which is weird for Missouri cause my state is the worst
TrueNorthernLights
As a Canadian, that was mortifying.
whatmakesushuman
Those people are fucking wankers.
Cruise1687
I was just at a sold out concert in an arena with no vaccine requirement and literally zero masks. What the fuck are they protesting?????
OdinYggd
The people who made the mandates need to be removed from power for their abuse of executive authority.
Skywatcher16
their own self imagined victimhood
Op19
Searched for that this morning, only somewhat valid complaint now is high gas prices. They don't understand irony or who to blame anymore
HaloArchitect
"semi-valid"? Are they protesting in Moscow against the war?
Devestator8888
Yes high gas prices thanks to Russia for its invasion.
Nintendobama
They sould try the swedish gas price right now. We are above 8 dollars per gallon.

Have fun burning that $4 a gallon gas, trucknuts.

And Canada too.

Careful saying that… we are going to need new words….
toast667
Legally? Maybe with decades of hard work and community building, so functionally no. Illegally but still the right thing to do? Yes.
clamdriver
Aren’t the mask and vaccine mandates pretty much over now??
PectorialMuscles
Yes
spamsmells
Don't worry they will be back.
SocoFox
Yes. And they've lost the one thing they were clinging to do they're back to making up things to be the victim about.

Hate Thy Neighbor. Good documentary series.

Wait. This isn't even parody? (The binoculars part being the parody)
Canadoug
Nope, real documentary about (mostly white) racists around the world. This is from the first episode if I recall.
IExplainJokesThatNeedNoExplanation
No, they told him be could watch but had to stay over there. It's actually hilarious, the owner of the bar they're at got pissed that 1/
IExplainJokesThatNeedNoExplanation
The host was told he couldn't even come in the bar at first. He came out there and brought him in "This is a KKK bar, everyone is welcome"
Chimponzoo
Real question, Putin like to play the long game, and he has probably been planning this war for years. Could the Nazis be Russian paid? >2>

Toffeeaccident
Probably some, the rest are just useful idiots
Chimponzoo
Agree completely!
ProfessorAssBlast2020
Like, remove 50% of the country?
thedudeman519
Where are people getting this 50 percent figure from?
ProfessorAssBlast2020
true my bad, only 46.9%
thedudeman519
Probably half that .
spontaneous9
Some hardly have any in their area, and some people live in areas with higher percentages than 50. For them, 50% is an optimistic estimate.
KillerTofu615
Can we please just shoot anyone who displays a nazi flag?
METROlD
Right? You would think so. I thought Americans LOVED shooting people. We shoot our kids at school all the time!
Puzzledpuma24
And a cornfederate flag?

Some indigenous tribes have it on their flag. Maybe skip them.

Can we please just shoot anyone calling for the deaths of others?
Toffeeaccident
Yeah thats what he said.
ArchonIlladrya
The world has no place for Nazis and is better off with them in a box. We fought a war about this.
datphone777365
wait till they try the tolerance paradox.
wormsinmahspice
Listen, offing ppl in the street won't usher in some paradise. It just makes you into a group murdering your political opponents.
MarshmallowFluffernutterPie
Let's not normalize Nazism by calling it a "political position".
Badprenup
Nazis are not a political opponent. They are an extremist hate group responsible for the murder of millions of minorities and ethnic groups
AreYouABadPerson
Sounds like some ~enlightened centrist~ bullshit from a coward who's never had to worry about racists and fascists.
sophware
That's what killing a Nazi is. Also, I hope you don't have a gun and a mirror, while doing the math on your own comment.
wormsinmahspice
So calling for the unconditional mass death of ppl under a single banner, hmmm, sure sounds like Nazis to me!
sophware
Are you not recognizing that you called for the death of people under a single banner? Take that as a sign.
Badprenup
Difference being nazis wanted death based on a silly ideal of genetic superiority. We want nazis dead because of that ideal
MarshmallowFluffernutterPie
Yes. Shoot Nazis and Confederates. That's what we're talking about.
datphone777365
lol you wana hug and "really listen" to xenophobic instead cus they can all be reasonable if only they where reached out too?
wormsinmahspice
Calling for the unconditional mass murder of ppl under a single banner sounds like something a Nazi would do.
datphone777365
sounds like some really weak fallacy you tryna sell here. "killin nazis is some nazi shit" lol fuckin clown.
AreYouABadPerson
You're giving away your bullshit when you bust out the "maybe the anti-nazis are the REAL nazis?" talking point broham. What a fucking joke.
