it goes as follows

- ANY NEWS ON THE NEW YORK TRUCKER BOYCOTT FELLAS HOWS IT GOING

- uh nothing's up and commercial traffic is pretty much normal

- yeah i just got two loads out of newark and

I've only known a few truckers but not a one of them was the sort to refuse work and pay to make some kind of point. It's like how the "trucker" convoy in Canada was like, a few dozen truckers who refused to get the vaccination they needed to cross the border and the rest were just a whole bunch of idiots who showed up in pick ups and SUVs because they were collecting CERB at the time instead of working.

Likewise, the "trucker convoy" down to 'fix' the border a month ago was entirely SUVs, RVs, and cars without a rig in sight.

Because again, the Venn diagram of 'people who can take two months off and afford to drive half-way across the country' and 'truckers' is two separate circles; but the Venn diagram of 'people who can take two months off and afford to drive half-way across the country and have angry angry opinions about brown people' and 'people who drive an RV or SUV and think that makes them a 'trucker'' is just a circle

There was also the much-ballyhooed trucker barricade of DC two years ago, which accomplished nothing but marginally slowing down traffic on the Beltway further and pissing off a bunch of drivers.

As a Canadian who worked at customer end of trucking during the Canadian trucker convoy? It was the same way. We had weirdos driving by the depot and honking in "support," but the trucks still came in full as hell and we were busy working and continuing to do what we were all doing. Surreal.

Do you guys think Payne's perfectly aware of the false equivalences he makes with such regularity or is he just that dumb? I'm leaning the former since it seems like he knew to specifically avoid using "persecute" there, dude at least knows vocabulary pretty well. The old malice/incompetence rules seem to be applying less these days.

(that or my opinion's changed now that we know the Iraq War really was malice)

Yeah, once again it's "his political opponent is being prosecuted!!!" with no engagement over whether the charges are, yknow, true. It's literally just that if your opponent faces any legal action, it must be unfair, and also, you did it. Guilt has nothing to do with it.

I don't know if there's a category for 'most opposite of reality', but that cartoon would win it. Not too long ago, Trump literally said that Putin could do whatever he wanted to countries that don't contribute enough to NATO.

Nailing down an exact definition of "globalist" either comes down to "anyone I don't like" or "Jews", and I'm pretty sure with Branco it's the first one.

Like don't get me wrong, his answer's still gonna be bigoted as gently caress because he doesn't like other races, LGBT people, or Jews. But I don't think he's the type to pick up on the "crypto" part of cryptofascism so he just takes everything at face value. His caveman-level bigotry never coalesces into any grand narrative. Globalism is when a black guy punches a white guy.

Yeah I think in this instance it's a nod to "I like Trump, Trump says he'll close the border, everyone who isn't Trump wants a fully open border where 5 million people illegally arrive and give all our stuff to France" or something.

So still lovely and xenophobic, but not as conspiratorial as e.g. Ben Garrison's "WEF wants me to eat kosher locusts" nor as stupid and convoluted as anything Tatsuya Ishida is thinking of writing this week.

It's Varvel, so you're obviously supposed to see this as a bad thing happening to Trump, but, it's so abridged that it's more a case of "Yes, that's generally how the legal process goes."

He completely fails to make his point that it's a sham trial or anything like that.
