It's funny all the quoting of this incident and how overblown it was seeing how it was only 1 flag out of 10s or 100s of thousands of Canadian flags displayed since the protests began. Nobody could give a video or cite an eye witness giving the original context.... until now at least. And the context is completely different than what was circulated in the media (are we really surprised at that?)

Are we really surprised by that? Certainly not.

But let's go a step further. Say we accept the facts as stated in light most favorable to the parties making the statement. What flag do you have to fly to lose your civil rights? Is there a list?

Even if the flag was flown by an actual bona fide Nazi it would not have mattered to me.

1) Back in earlier days when people were more reasonable it was recognized that a small percentage of the population was extreme and we should not be hasty with generalizations and guilt by association.


2) The Left has perpetuated false flag versions of this sort of thing where they dress up as some hate group and pretend to be fans of an political adversary. This sort of thing was actually advocated in Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals".


3) According to how free speech has been framed and how it should be protected it classically is about "standing up for the free speech of groups you disagree with and even loath". Basically that the KKK, neoNazi's etc. have free speech the rights to exist and congregate etc. just as long as they aren't doing one of the three things below:

a) committing actual physical violence, destroying property and similar kinds of felony crimes like kidnapping etc.
b) urging folks to do a)
c) secretly plotting to do a)


This has been the standard of how people looked at free speech and our other liberties before wokism, microaggressions etc. But the above is a necessary protection to prevent "Tyranny of the Majority".

Nazi ideology is the basis of the murder of millions of innocent people, based on their ethnicity. Are you actually saying that the display of a Nazi flag is irrelevant? And no, there are not good people on both sides.

If the flag symbolized the slaughter of countless Oriental Orthodox people, would that be okay with you???

I had suspected that it was along those lines.

So where is Trudeau's admonishment of foreign influences on this one? Maybe he doesn't know what's going on at the protest that is directed toward his policies. Maybe his intel is coming from the State funded media's hack journalists.

It's also an expression of the ideology of Dictatorial segregation, violations of basic human rights. Is that part OK with you?

So Trudeau, the guy who said that he admires China the most because "they can get things done" is really focused on this Nazi thing. So not only has he been falsely accusing all the truckers of carrying around Nazi flags, he is apparently also accusing conservatives in his government of supporting Nazis, maybe even being Nazis themselves. Just saw this video a little while ago in which someone in the conservative party who had family who fought against the Nazis demanded that Trudeau apologize for making that comment, and gave him three chances, all of which Trudeau refused. What a smarmy, ugly, nasty little man.

(Video starts at around 0:44)


All the protestors want is an end to the mandates and vaccine passports as they have stated multiple times. They have also stated they have no intention or desire to overthrow the government or anything like that. They are carrying Canadian and not Nazi flags. The only one who seems to have this fixation on Nazis is the prime minister.

Is the flag of China ok, if so why is it ok?
