I had planned on a thread discussing Johnston's antics yesterday, but Pat King's continued descent into sovereign citizen woo sort of preoccupied my time. 2/

In any case, prior to appearing on the bed of a truck on Stephen Ave promoting his fringe mayoral campaign, he was on the bed of a truck outside Artur Pawlowski's cult compound.

Here are the lowlights. 3/

Snipers? 4/

Kevin Johnston is the smartedest man in history! 5/

Could you make yourself appear any MORE creepy? 6/

Kijiji also wants to grift in the United States. 7/

Health mandates = treason and war crimes. 8/

Racism didn't exist in Canada until 2015 apparently. 9/

Kevin Johnston predicts violence if he doesn't win which, he perhaps doesn't realizes, says a great deal about his supporters if true. And that isn't good. 10/

"Everything I don't like or understand is communism" 11/

Yeah... I don't think I wans to learn my science from Kijiji.

He also tells us his price. 12/

Just kidding! He TOTALLY doesn't have a price!

READ: He TOTALLY has a price. 13/

In reality, the entirety of Kevin J. Johnston can be summed up in these 40 seconds. 14/

And when he finally comes out, Artur shows Kijiji some love and endorses his mayoral run which is another knock me over with a feather moment (you think a lonely tear fell down Larry Heather's face when he heard this?) 15/

Now all of this is pretty standard, however Kijiji did catch an exchange that I want to focus more attention on when he was on Stephen Ave.

Long story short, Dawid Pawlowski has a very short fuse. 16/

Prior to this incident, Dawid was promoting is run for city council.

There is a lot to unpack here.

Dangerous vaccine misinformation.

Anti-Semitic and Islamophobic tropes (Soros, Globalists, Aga Khan).

Praising nationalism that "protects our borders." 17/

His language, describing the government and health officials as "murderers" is bordering on stochastic terrorism though I could be convinced that he crosses the line here. 18/

In fact he hits on a lot of the conspiracy theories which he promotes as truth. 19/

He urges people NOT to get vaccinated with what he describes as poison. 20/

He does have time to chat briefly with who appears to be Rob Anders. 21/

And we learn that getting kicked out of Girl Guides for not abiding by the rules is communism because everything is communism apparently. 22/

But what might be most concerning is his interaction with others as he seems to be spoiling for a fight.

Here he is with the city workers again. It appears that while working one accidently blew soil in Dawid's direction. Dawid takes it as a personal affront. 23/

That's not the only encounter.

The good Christian also harasses a couple in particularly disgusting manner. 24/

He also harasses restaurant patrons and who looks to be an employee.

Notice Dawid's not-so-subtle dig questioning the man's citizenship. 25/

This echoes statements made during Artur's sermon the same day. 26/

In fact he harassed restaurant patrons on two additional occasions. 27

28/

Oh, and he harasses who look to be teenagers and/or young adults who he also lies to about people dying as a result of the pandemic.

Of course he tells them to "do their research." 29/

And then there are these clips.

Remember earlier when I wrote about his subtle anti-Semitism and Islamophobia?

Yeah... it isn't so subtle here. 30/

"Isn't that kosher. Isn't that halal."

He repeats the same line here as well as specifically spreading disinformation about mosques. 31/

And he repeats the claim that since the police won't do their bidding, that they will have to take the law into their own hands. 32/

So yeah.

Completely normal political discourse for a guy running in a municipal election to become a city councilor. 33/

Related.
