Left always goes after real working class. They only support dead weight class (gov workers, illegals, baristas, ect) and try to call them "working class".

Its the travesty of "the left" conscripting the term "liberal" into their circle of ownership. If you are a real "liberal" in the classical sense of the word, you are against this authoritarianism bullshit. And I hate to say it, but centralized socialism just keeps degrading to authoritarianism over and over and over again, and new batches of people keep failing and failing and failing to see history repeating itself.
True liberalism is a message of hope and individualism. People can decide on their own.. they are intelligent, capable beings.. Despite all the idiots working very very hard to prove the statement wrong :)
On another note, I hate the phrase "violence doesn't solve anything". Violence absolutely solves lots of things. If it didn't, police wouldn't have billy clubs and firearms to bring justice to bear. We also wouldn't have a military. Please fellow citizens, let's have enough respect for each other in the classical liberal sense that we don't have to show that violence is the answer yet again.

Again, left and right keep migrating to each other's former positions.
Left used to represent labor, but now the right does.

Working class, truck driving protestors have gathered in Ottawa, Ontario, gridlocking the city and honking their horns to demand the Trudeau government lift vaccine mandates on their industry. The protest, called the Freedom Convoy, has captured the imagination and the hearts of those in North America who yearn for freedom, liberty, and the right to self-determination.
But for Canada's state-run press, as well as US, leftist corporate media, upholding the government narrative has been far more important that acknowledging the truckers' rights to live and work freely. Leftists have usually been in favor of workers rights, but in this case, when the workers are actual blue collar Canadians who want their bodies and minds free from government control, the left stands in opposition to the working class and their interests. It's a massive red pill moment.
He also said that US money and organizers are backing the Freedom Convoy. "We are now aware of a significant element from the United States that have been involved in the funding, the organizing and the demonstrating. They have converged on our city and there are plans for more to come."
"The longer this goes on," Sloly added, "the more I'm convinced there may not be a police solution to this demonstration."
