Somehow I need to make up a “Dirt People” bumper sticker.

I dig that.

It’s wonderfully deplorable.

Democrats Are Building a Wall to false flag against.

Commies are building a wall to keep out freedom-fighting patriots. Rot in hell, you bastards!

[Responsibility2nd]

Exactly. If the truckers can’t get into town, then neither can anybody else.

Duh. Democrats are so stupid.

[COBOL2Java]

I remember Tractorcade in 1979

[New Perspective]

WOW!I remember that. The gov’t pig just gets bigger and meaner.

[antidemoncrat]

Give her a break. Queen Nazi Pelosi has to protect her castle.

When they shut down the bikers...

Rolling Thunder?

Fine. Block all highway entries.

A revolution is only three missed meals away.

[kanawa]

That would be a rerun of Trudeau's mistake.

Yep

[Karl Spooner]

[Salamander]

Believe so.

A man with a raccoon mask might flash the Confederate Flag! They might set up a bouncy castle! A woman might go for a cup of coffeeeeeeee! Somewhere, someone might hold a placard with a swastika on it. They’ll be tripping up horses and forcing them to step on them by lying underneath the poor dears!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Eleutheria5]

Mostly pieceful as usual.

It’s really ironic. Workers all over the world are uniting, just like Carl Marx said they should. Only they’re uniting against leftard BS agendas, so therefore they’re denounced as the villains. This is the final crisis of Communism.

[Billthedrill]

Yup. The Babylon Bee had a headline: “Socialists Condemn Workers Of The World For Uniting”. It’s one of those internal contradictions they’re always babbling about.

[Eleutheria5]

They grab up all the good stuff.

Here’s my idea for truck control for Washington: don’t stop all trucks. For every truck allowed to enter, a truck must exit. Then Washington won’t get clogged.

Sounds like you support the commies and their forced experimentation. But that's irrelevant to how useless your idea is. DC has a couple major roads going in. The truckers don't need to get in and clog DC, they can stop miles outside of it and just block the highways. That's all they need to do.

“Sounds like you support the commies and their forced experimentation.”

I support the goal of the truckers, but I’ve thought a strike would be just as effective, easier on the truckers, and not as disruptive to activities that are essential to other people in the clogged area.

A strike wouldn't be very effective. For such a widespread industry, you'd need a sizeable fraction of drivers to participate, and many aren't willing to risk that. There no publicity - leaving government and the media to fully frame the narrative, and how do you think that would go? Most people already know little enough of what's going on in general. Being disruptive is the only way to get the story out. All anyone would know otherwise is "there's a nationwide shortage of xx truckers" is why goods are short on shelves and deliveries take so long. No one would know about a partial strike or that some brave people were passively fighting the tyranny.
