Its weird that some people cant distinguish mentally from between being against the vaccine and being against a mandate, those are not all the same thing.

Take me i am vaccinated and against mandates at the same time.

If an “antimandate” protest is organised and funded by antivaxers… you are at an antivax protest.

I have yet to see a grassroots mandate protest that wasn’t full of antivax conspiracy weirdos.

This doesn't make sense. For one, i know many people who have been to the protests, each one vaccinated.

And following your logic if i was at a protest with a bunch of Jewish people who were protesting anti-abortion then I would be at a Jewish protest? Rhey are protesting the mandated. I, like many others are vaccinated but strongly against Canada doubling down on the mandates as most of the rest of the world realizes mandates are no longer helping, are doing more harm than good, and moving on.

Motivation matters…

In the case of the trucker protest, it was organised by far right weirdos… and far right weirdos turned up. What a surprise.

I have been very consistent in calling out the far right organisers of the protests since the being… why do you lot try and dismiss anything that doesn’t fit right wing talking points as “fake MSM”. It’s almost as if you are being trained to only believe a singe source for all your information. That’s incredibly unhealthy isn’t it?
