FYI for any Canadian reassuring themselves that what's happening down in the US can't happen here, remember that the founder of the Proud Boys is Canadian
There was a crowd of Trump supporters at the Ontario legislative building as well as cars driving down University Avenue honking and streaming American/Trump flags this afternoon. This affects us more directly than you think.
Today in Canada:
Ontario, December 4, 2020.
Your delusional if you don’t think there’s rampant racism in Canada.
The day Trump was elected there were nazi and confederate flags seen in multiple places around canada. Proud Boys have chapters in canada, as well as other fascist groups.
Reason is not measured by size or height, but by principle.
In all my years of protesting I have never seen shit like this except once when we had a group of police almost completely surrounded. The stark lack of police is also so striking. This protest was promoted by the fucking president and they had, what, 20 cops defending the Capitol? I’ve been to Black Lives Matter demonstrations where the number of Seattle cops looked to outnumber protesters, I’ve seen hundreds of cops descend on our city in response to Black folks demanding a simple right to live, and now this.
The difference is just so absurdly stark. Look at this and then tell me cops should continue to exist.
[Video
description: TikTok by Marcus DiPaola @/marcus.dipaola that shows people from the attempted coup in Washington D.C. on 6 January 2021.
The video starts with a shot of marchers, some of whom are waving
various right-wing flags. They are pushing up against fencing manned by people wearing
uniforms that read “U.S. Capitol Police.” The marchers are
shouting, and DiPaola says, “Police are squabbling with protestors.
Oh, here we go.” The police appear to have pushed the fencing out of the way,
allowing the marchers to walk in towards the camera. A person in a
grey hoodie with the hood up and facing away from the camera is
gesturing to the stream of people in a “come this way” motion.
The police begin to disappear in the crowd as it gets closer to the
camera. “And they just breached the Capitol again,” DiPaola says.
The camera pans away from the stream of people over to the right,
where several other people have crossed barriers and are standing
near the Capitol steps. \source: TikTok \End ID]
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
