I don't agree with the goal of the trucker protests and think mask mandates and vaccines are a small price to pay, to control this pandemic. That said, I also think that villifying the protests isn't helping. The people should be in their right to protest politics they don't agree with. Just should be aware, that their protest might be fruitless.
All over the world, but especially in america, the politics seems to polarize more and more. This mindset spread: "If you are not with us, you are against us." And that is a horrible mindset. My guess is, that the main politic directions have become that similar, that they have to artificially exxagerate their differences. Evren though democrats now have the white house and the majority in congress, there still isn't any progress for single payer healthcare, free education and more workers rights.
Don't let you all be fooled, all this strong distinctions that are made publically are painting over the reality, that neither political side in most north american and european countries is tackling major political reforms. The capitalist system is failing more and more and everythign the parties are offering are band-aids, while the publicly strongly struggle about the color of the band-aid. Nothing showed the failure of politics more than the pandemic, that was poorly handled in north america and europe for the most part.
