Gyroscopic Investing

This thread might not be worth revisiting. Without deleting them, the purpose is to get these posts out of the Convoy ‘22 thread, per I_Shrugged’s request. The Freedom Convoy ‘22 thread was itself split off of a bitcoin thread, so trying to find a coherent point may be rough gooing. It’s difficult sometimes to decide whether to keep or move a post. Some posts might be copied. Thanks for your patience. \ DS

Okay so he’s got a sign… where is the evidence that he also has a truck? Or does he just self-identify as a trucker?

It’s from the trucker protest. That’s not to say that every trucker involved is like that. No way, not at all. But god, it’s fucking annoying that every protest, from Occupy Wall Street to 2020’s riots to Jan 6 (camp Auschwitz t-shirt) to this, has to make time for Fuck the Jews.

Do you have any idea where that comes from? It seems to be out of left field to me. Is it general anti-elite sentiment which then gets conflated with religion/ethnicity? Is it the religion or the ethnicity they're concerned with?

Looooong story. There are documentaries on it. And reddit threads. So as not to hijack further, I’ll just say it’s not religion. Ethnicity is also not the whole stry.

I’m not against them. Do read the thread sometime.
