The leaders of this occupation include people who espoused Islamophobic, Anti-Semitic and racist hate on social media, organizers of the notorious far-right yellow vest protests, and people spreading extreme conspiracy theories and calls for violence.

Lol this is his you know this article is trash. Zero argument so they jump to racist.

I stand with the truckers.

On the contrary, the statement contains several paragraphs of argument clarifying that these do not represent the interests of Canadian unions, that their demands, the downfall of a democratically elected government and are rooted in ideological extremism. These are all perfectly legitimate as arguments.

You're showing deep ignorance about this occupation, probably just willful because you're frustrated with COVID like absolutely everyone else and this fits your narrative. But, just take a second and see who's behind it. This is just one of many resources on this:

BTW - "The Truckers" denounced the Ottawa crap early on. If you stand with truckers, you stand against this bullshit.
