AvE was a big supporter of the truck convoy in Toronto which I find very off-putting

It's hard to find unbiased information on that. Care to elaborate? I feel that all the news articles are missing some critical context.

[UltraSane]

A bunch of truckers illegally parked in downtown ottowa and annoyed the residents for weeks.

But what's the other side of the story?

I don’t agree with canadian oilmen’s politics generally but I defend their (and everyone’s) right to protest loudly about whatever grievances they may have.

AvE is ok in my book. His channel is more posturing and fluff and in-jokes than useful content, but supporting legitimate political protests (even if you don’t share their political views) isn’t cancel-worthy.

[UltraSane]

The ottowa truck convoy went well past reasonable protesting into being a public nuisance.

[sneak]

Protests that aren’t a nuisance aren’t really effective protests.

Would YOU have been happy with one of the trucks parked outside your home idling and honking for weeks? I strongly doubt it.
