British writer and Twitter Anon Mr. KB Goldtooth requested an interview with me for an upcoming essay he is writing, on the inspiration that he and others in the UK's 'Together' movement took from The Freedom Convoy; it was nice to have the table spun and be asked the questions for once. We discussed how I became involved in writing on The Convoy, the effects of Trudeau's psychological warfare campaign had on Canada and how that lead to the Convoy in the first place, and the fall out from it all...

I spoke with my friend D, a public school teacher in Ontario, about how public sector and most other unions were actively hostile to The Freedom Convoy, and have largely abandoned their commitment to defending the interests of their members, at least where it concerns Bodily Autonomy. We also discussed The Reckoning that is going to be required for society to heal, after the last 3 years of relentless psychological warfare inflicted on everyone by just about all of the institutions whom are entr...
