Re: What happened with the US version of the trucker convoy protests? [Re: lowbrow] * 1

It could be huge but the press won’t report it.


https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&hs=emI&q=us+trucker+convoy

It could also be small, below average, barely adequate, yet the press seems to be reporting on it. Here I am with all these sources where the press seems to be reporting.

Then there's you; :goldenharvest:

I know. It ain’t really worth arguing.  All it is anymore is a nit-picky hunt for gotcha moments, whether they’re logical or not.

There are 59 million search results in the link I provided above.

Find 5 sources that show the convoy is larger than what the press is reporting. It's that simple.

It's not about winning at all. It's about people being accountable for the dumb shit they perpetuate.

Let's review the thread.

  • PSI asked a question.
  • Tyran answered and provided a source.
  • Wrestler provided a source.
  • Baby provided two sources.
  • I commented but forgot my source.
  • PSI responded.
  • I pasted source.
  • Feevers provided a quote with a source.
  • Baby commented.
  • Tryan posted a song.
  • Shithead commented.
  • PSI made a joke with a meme.
  • lowbrow comes in with a theory but no source.
  • I pointed out that there was an answer to the theory and was quoted above, no source needed because Feevers provided it.
  • lowbrow talks about me jizzing.
  • I point out that feevers source above proves lowbrows theory wrong.
  • lowbrow insults, indicating i've hit my head.
  • I provide another source.
  • lowbrow moves the goal posts.
  • Baby makes a joke, because there's a lack of proof to prove lowbrows ever changing claim.
  • I provide a source with 59 million results.
  • Amanita feels bad for lowbrow.
  • I make a joke about the mug.
  • Amanita thinks it is coffee.
  • lowbrow takes the position that it isn't worth arguing, awfully true, because there's nothing to argue. The proof is in the pudding.
  • Aminita proposes that this is about winning.
  • I point out that there are 59 million results to be looked at.


How low can the bar go? There are 8 provided sources showing one poster is wrong, he provides no counter information whatsoever, just 10 word sentences and insults.

Now we can go back through this thread in more detail, but if you take 1 minute to understand what happened here the results are clear. There was a question, it was answered with many sources, yet one person gets to derail it with nonsense.

Maybe we can have a discussion like adults? most of us gave it a decent shot. Is that too much to ask?

First off you spelled my name wrong, and second that’s not at all what I proposed.  I wasn’t even commenting on this thread..  I didn’t feel compelled to read the rest after that display of lack of accuracy.

Yes, I typo'd once out of three. Crucial point.

I wasn't commenting on how you were commenting on other threads, I was commenting on how your comment doesn't apply in this thread. So I am glad we agree.

Looks like a bust. Where's "mighty white" (Right name?:confused:) been lately? I would love to hear from him because he posts about trucking all the time. I think the truckers here know better than to fuck up their livelihood because people are so expendable here due to capitalists and corporatists making the rules.


https://uproxx.com/viral/maga-trucker-convoy-bob-bolus-bust/
The anti-vax trucker protests that plagued parts of Canada over the last month are currently winding down, though they did more than clog cities like Ottawa. They also inspired copycats in France. But a MAGA-themed version, which was set to “choke” D.C. on Wednesday, stumbled right out of the gate.

As per The Daily Beast, MAGA trucker Bob Bolus had hyped up a convoy of 10 to 20 trucks that would march from Scranton to D.C., which it would treat like the Canadian truckers did Ottawa. Their purpose? To protest vaccine mandates. He later added other grievances, including immigration, the death of Jan. 6 protester Ashli Babbit, and, of course, Critical Race Theory.

“I’ll give you an analogy of that of a giant boa constrictor,” Bobus boasted. The threat was so real that the Pentagon approved of nearly 700 National Guards personnel to assist local authorities should multiple convoys create gridlock.

But no such constricting was to happen. Why? Because no one showed up. That’s not true. Bolus showed up with his 18-wheeler, though he was late to arrive because he got two flat tires. Reuters reporter Julio-César Chávez, who traveled alongside the much diminished convoy, counted five pick-up trucks, one SUV, and one Sedan, for a total of eight vehicles of varying sizes, most of them quite small.


Just seen this TRex

I haven't really been paying too much attention to this US convoy, I'm too busy running local right now.

I did talk to one of our OTR drivers that just got to the yard, he come in from a run from California and he said he was behind the convoy for a little bit out there. He didn't say a lot about it really, just that in some spots there were folks out on the overpasses and on/off ramps waving and cheering

Personally I don't think anyone blocking roads is the right way to go about things. My boss would not be happy if we started fucking around with that convoy, we have a lot of freight to deliver that needs to be on time. We just picked up a military contract and are about to get slammed hard with so much freight going to military bases all over the US

posting inflammatory memes over a molehill isn’t holding anybody accountable for anything.  Dishonest(but not surprising).

Let's review the thread.

oh boy…

[LIST]
  • PSI asked a question.
  • Tyran answered and provided a source.




    • that source is not credible.

    christopera said:
  • Wrestler provided a source.


    • a source that contradicts previous biased source.  But still biased in itself.

    christopera said:
  • Baby provided two sources.


    • two sources that contradict T-Rex’s source.  Though biased, one is a video.

    christopera said:
  • I commented but forgot my source.



    • No source but threw your two cents in anyway. The same thing you’re giving me shit for.  Highly hypocritical.

    christopera said:
  • PSI responded.
  • I pasted source.


    • That’s a biased left wing tabloid.

    christopera said:
  • Feevers provided a quote with a source.

    • homeboy provided a biased right wing source that said only one of the convoys didn’t take off while saying several others are running.  You didn’t even bother to read it.

    christopera said:
  • Baby commented.

    • he tends to post flippant remarks

    christopera said:
  • Tryan posted a song.



    • i would of gone with the original.

    christopera said:
  • Shithead commented.


    • and what a good logical comment it was.

    christopera said:
  • PSI made a joke with a meme.



    • I guess you can call that a joke.

    christopera said:
  • lowbrow comes in with a theory but no source.

    • A theory is set in stone, I would of called it more of a hypothesis.

    Part 2
    christopera said:
  • I pointed out that there was an answer to the theory and was quoted above, no source needed because Feevers provided it.

    • And you pointed right to the right wing biased news source that you didn’t even bother to read.  Have you no scruples, sir?

    christopera said:
  • lowbrow talks about me jizzing.

    • No.  I used a metaphor about you doing a victory lap prematurely.  And you also started comparing me to a jar of piss, or calling me one, I can’t tell.

    christopera said:
  • I point out that feevers source above proves lowbrows theory wrong.

    • the biased right wing news source that you didn’t bother to read.

    christopera said:
  • lowbrow insults, indicating i've hit my head.

    • If you’re going to talk about insults, you keep ommitting the part where you call me a jar of piss.  That’s HIGHLY DISHONEST, but expected.

    christopera said:
  • I provide another source.

    • You provided another left wing biased news source.  You’re making my point for me.

    christopera said:
  • lowbrow moves the goal posts.

    • I posted a non-fasifiable statement. What I said has been on wheels since the initial post.  And you’re now trying to argue a non-falsifiable statement, you must be proud.

    christopera said:
  • Baby makes a joke, because there's a lack of proof to prove lowbrows ever changing claim.


    • he made another flippant remark that he thought made him look profound, that’s what he does
    christopera said:
  • I provide a source with 59 million results.

    • linking a google is lazy.  Linking a google to argue a non-falsifiable statement is special.

    christopera said:
  • Amanita feels bad for lowbrow.


    • not the vibe I got.

    christopera said:
  • I make a joke about the mug.
  • Amanita thinks it is coffee.

    • sure looks like coffee.

    christopera said:
  • lowbrow takes the position that it isn't worth arguing, awfully true, because there's nothing to argue. The proof is in the pudding.

    • It was a non-falsifiable statement, and you’re beligerently arguing it.
    christopera said:
  • Aminita proposes that this is about winning.


    • . It is to you.

    Quote:
    christopera said:

    • That is SO lazy. Now you’re bragging about how lazy you are.
