...So this isn’t a grass-roots trucker uprising. It’s more like a slow-motion Jan. 6, a disruption caused by a relatively small number of activists, many of them right-wing extremists. At their peak, the demonstrations in Ottawa reportedly involved only around 8,000 people, while numbers at other locations have been much smaller.

Paul Krugman's an asshat. Can't even get his so-called "economics theories" right so now he ventures into foreign policy?
No wonder the Biden mis-Administration is such a shitshow.

Notice how Paul China Krugman is grumbling about the “right to destroy” when the protestors against the fake vax aren’t destroying entire cities. He wasn’t fussing about the city wrecking protestors who blamed white people for everything under the sun.

The NYT was for the truckers before they were against them.

But when a group of leftist “occupy” the Wisconsin capitol in 2011, then of course “this is what democracy looks like!”
To: Kriggerel
Mockingbird Media talking points are the same across the board. Vomitous.

Looked like a diverse crowd using their ‘freedom’ in LA Sunday night after the super bowel.

You mean like the freedom to have an abortion and destroy a human life, Krugman?

Paul Krugman has never been right about anything in his entire life.
Paul Krugman is the equivalent of the fat lady singing.
When he goes all in, its over for his side.

Krugman is not only always wrong, but wrong as wrong can be. If he were to declare that the sun would rise in the east tomorrow, I would honestly expect God to reverse the direction of the earth’s rotation overnight.

It is Paul Krugman. Warning labels are not necessary.
To: Kriggerel
Paul Krugman obviously is getting his research from left wing twitter feeds... We know investigative journalism is dead and what’s reported by the left is the opposite of reality.

When the left writes their history, the right-wing truckers will be responsible for destructive riots in US cities.

BLM was only a few thousand too
but suddenly, to Big Media, they represented all of America
even despite the looting, vandalising, destroying, and statue-toppling ...

Did I miss Paul’s eviscerating op-Ed on the violent and destructive BLM riots of 2020?
To: Kriggerel
I thought he was in favor of "room to destroy"?
Oh, right.
Only for Criminals.
People who actually work and contribute should just "take their beating".
What a evil person.

No, you did not. It doesn't exist. Proving Krugman's incompetent, inept hypocrisy.

This COULD have been written in 2019 about BLM and Antifa...
I wonder why it wasn't?

The Left wants to destroy all of Western Civilization but of course they accuse the protesters instead.
