Anyone else notice the steep decline in Anti-Trudeau, anti-mask, anti-vaccination, pro-truckers posts since Russia pulled the plug on Facebook and Twitter?

I believe that is the answer to the question posed in the title; at least partially. Russia's propaganda arm has been severed.


I’m not on Twitter but it should be possible to determine if the people posting all of that antiness got their plug pulled.

If you’re on Twitter please can you check for non-members like me?


There is the same number of anti-Trudeau, anti-mandates, anti-emergency act people on Tweaker now as there ever was.

I'm on daily, it's never-ending.

More on that topic than Ukraine actually. That should tell us something.

@FreeCanada22 is my organizations feed if anyone would like to check for themselves.

Russia makes mountains out of our molehills, under the guise of being random concerned American citizens. Their propaganda works; your reply to me is proof of it. You are beyond naive if you don't think Russia has a large scale disinformation campaign online targeted at sowing division in America. You eat their digital slop and they love it.

It probably failed because there are no mandates for vaccines or masks in the USA. Federal at least. Life literally has gone on as usual since covid where I'm from. They tried to make us wear masks when it first started, but no one ever put them on. Besides one coworker that continues to wear his everyday. CNN told him to.

Just a quick rant. We were talking about biden shutting down domestic oil for the most part. He said no it isnt biden. Trump had that set in place. I dunno if he believes that or if it's a talking point.

I have a problem with liars and the lies they push for political reasons.

That isn't likely to change.




Is that what you consider a 'zealot'?

Well that's about the dumbest...

Wait.. is this opposite day again?



Those constantly pushing lies for political reasons are the 'zealots'.

Perhaps they could stop spreading lies here?

That would be nice.

There's nothing as a group we can't ask for improvements from our a$$holes in charge?

1. I keep saying this hoping it will get some attention. The first demand should be the release of the Jan. 6th prisoners, full review and accountability of their imprisonment, and prosecution of those found violating our laws and constitution. If that was really resolved it would go a long way in cleaning house.

2. Demand a system is in place so our elections are infallible accurate at every level.

The convoy needs to identify and involve smart, strong, real Americans from other backgrounds that, like the Canadians understand the depravity and trickery of those in charge and know there is no other choice. They are here and although our voice might not be as gentle as the Canadians, smart and heart is the same.

Although I don't know anything about Tricia Lindsay, she seems/I hope is one of us and might want to be involved.

Erm, that's quite possible, but not what we were talking about..

I'm in Canada and we were talking about Trudeau.

You do realize that accounts on Twiiter can be verified, right? If they aren't, then we don't trust them. Simple.

Well luckily the tyrant ruling and push by Biden ,MSM, social media, and the democrats to force people via coercion to take a drug with no long term studies with no help in preventing the catching or spreading of the virus finally started to fizzle and get shutdown.

Desantis also made these fools in the democrats state look like the fools they are to the point they too started to copy him and back down from the covid dictatorship tactics that have been shown to not work.

So we didn't need truckers we got Desantis who exposed the democrats bs with the handling of covid.


I'm sure it breaks the democrats heart that Bidens Winter of death warning never materialized.

Also extremely sad as a foreign born immigrant from a commie/socialist dictatorship to watch the democrats as yourself not only welcome more control from a corrupt entity such as congress over the people , but you are actually fighting and protecting them to give them that control over you.

I say this a proud American citizen who is Married to an American and has 3 American kids, I only wish it was a requirement for American born citizens to move to a 3rd world sh1tholet for a year so they can see what is like when you give to much control and power to a gov't riddled with conflict of interest .

You are lucky now to afford such naiveness ,but that luck will eventually run out and unfortunately we will all pay the price.

no I'm not a republican either, as they are equally as riddled with conflict of interest, but atleast the Republicans are aware why we shouldn't give more power and more money to an entity with conflict of interest. Unfortunately where the republicans drop the ball is when they believe the republican party is for smaller gov't and the lesser evil.

And Fauci is 0 for 2 on his warnings (hopes) of Thanksgiving and Christmas Deaths.

2020 and 2021 = Fauci Fail.


He will be investigated thoroughly, in 10 months.

I'm not on Twitter (well, I have an account... I just don't participate. There's just so many hours in the day, y'know?), so I find your observations interesting. Now that I look, I don't see it as a trending topic on this Twitter trends site or on this one (though I did get a laugh out of "taco tuesday" trending.

Tried to look at stats but soon realized I was going to get lost in the "gosh that's interesting data" bushes.

Any idea on the numbers/popularity/etc?

Unfortunately the only thing that comes from investigations at those levels is that witness get suicided , evidence gets hidden or destroyed, and nobody ever gets held accountable.

Investigation at those leves is not to warrant a prosecution but close loose ends to protect the system.

Please describe how 3000 Trucks in a convoy is a 'flop'.

I'm still waiting.



This is your OP, correct?

Or did I accidentally stumble into a pure propaganda thread again?

The Price of FUEL is not a small factor in this I think. The Russian Invasion of course has all the attention of course. We are practically carpooling to the grocery store right now and combining trips because fuel is way over budget right now.

As you may have noticed in reading through this thread, there are multiple convoys headed that way. This is the one that organized a rally for today (the other convoys won't reach the city for today... one of them won't be there for another five or six days)

Further, as you may have noticed when you clicked on and read the articles in my original post, this one was scheduled specifically as a protest at the State of the Union address and not later.

This group, which seemed to have pretty clear intentions and goals, had trouble getting others to join and today under 200 people showed up at the rally. I felt that asking why this group didn't get more action was a fair question, particularly since the person who started it went to a lot of trouble to make sure it was totally legal and they could protest at the Capitol today.

Many of the people responding had some interesting explanations -- don't you think so?

Another interesting point... it must cost a MINT to fill up a big rig on your own dime.

Nice word soup.

Your title and op were intended as propaganda to trick folks into dismissing something.

Have you changed that yet?

Otherwise still 100% dishonest.




Try this:

"Largest convoy in American History nearing DC with zero issues of any kind and growing every day".


That would be a lot more honest eh?

Yeah it’d be cool if everyone would stop spreading lies. It’s difficult to wait for the dust to settle before assessing a global conflict, but based upon the level of propaganda at this point in time, I believe it’s the responsible thing to do.

I’m genuinely curious why you feel your beliefs are the “correct” ones? Are you self-critical of what you believe?

You’re a zealot because you leave no room for yourself to be wrong. That’s kind of a problem for productive conversation and far too common here.

It would be (to be honest, while I don't doubt the reports, I am slightly skeptical about the numbers) but that's not the group I was talking about in the OP. They're just going to... well, meet up in the general vicinity of DC... and I guess go home. They're not going to enter DC (according to what one of their leaders said.)

And there's threads on that convoy elsewhere; another thread about them would just get canned.

But this one - this is a legit protest with all the right boxes checked... why didn't people give it more support? They made it into DC, they had permits, there was no trouble... and in fact the permit said they could have had 3,000-5,000 people at the rally before (or after) the State of the Union address.

Someone suggested fear of being arrested (if I understand correctly, the other convoy is just going to drive to the general area, but haven't seen any concrete plans about what they intend to do once they get to a stopping point. That's really different than this group, which planned music, a demonstration march, speeches, etc.

Why the different response?

No, not really.

All I could give is anecdotal, I haven't noticed any drop off in the commenting though.

I just started using Twitter for my Org, so I'm quite new to it as well.

I know.

I know why you did it.

I know how often you do it

I how long you've been doing it.

You are more subtle and intelligent than most, but still completely transparent.

It's your turn now.

Honest or propaganda.

Completely up to you, I'm here either way.
