PC Erin Howard in #Ontario, in uniform (presumably while being paid by taxpayers to do her job), says “we’re a little bit at war right now”. She’s w/ #PoliceOnGuard.
@csiscanada @rcmpgrcpolice, there’s a SERIOUS problem with dangerous extremism in police services in 🇨🇦 #cdnpoli
@DRPS, please make a statement about what you intend to do about officer Erin Howard spreading disinformation & helping to foment hate & division. Not exactly the mandate of a police service. This type of extremism - over a coordinated con job - is dangerous. #TruckersForFreeDumb
What I also find both disturbing & sad, is how gullible & incapable of critical thought this officer is. She actually believes that creating traffic jams & disrupting business by a small group of far right radicalized anti-vaxxers = “fighting for our rights & freedoms” 🤦‍♀️

Going to pull a few important threads together for everyone. re #FluTruxKlan.

#CPC like #GOP, has courted the far right for several years, however, at some point Frankenstein will always lose control of the monster.

#TruckersForFreedom is an op & grift unleashing extremism. ImageImageImageImage
As of today, Tamara Lich added a new name & called “Freedom Convoy 2022” a “team” fundraiser. She added Benjamin Dichter (BJ Dichter).

She also once again increased the goal amount to $6M (talk about moving the goalposts).

Who is former #CPC candidate Dichter? #FluTruxKlan ImageImageImage

As I further examine the #TruckersForFreedom #TruckerConvoy2022 grift & op, here’s my guess on what’s happening (I hope someone does an analysis with software I don’t possess @DFRLab). I suspect the “donations” are being laundered through a troll farm. Along w/ fake account posts
Ms Lich keeps increasing the goal amount as “donations” come in every minute or every few minutes. Fake donations laundered through a troll farm type apparatus wld be in small amounts done more frequently in order to appear authentic, in addition to real donations by the gullible
But that’s not all. There is coordinated messaging across #Conservative propaganda media. Disinformation 101. Make a lie displace truth. RW disinformation posing as “news” has been steadily promoting this op & pumping out a false narrative (& asking for $$ 🙄) #TruckersForFreedom

How disinfo & propaganda get amplified & displace truth. After #OntarioStorm, there were massive delivery backlogs due to both storm & highway closures. This video shows a rush hour scene of trucks, claiming it’s #TruckersForFreedom. Propagandist Bexte then grifts off the lie.
Keean Bexte is well versed in this con. In #UnitedWeRoll his barrage of daily lies (including constantly lying about crowd sizes 🤔), never answered the question of who was paying him & “Rebel” & who was funding the massive fuel costs of big rigs driving across the country.
PS, funny how the supposed “crowd funding” that disinformationist Bexte was claiming, all came in crisp $20 bills. You know, the same kind that come out of an ATM. 🤔 (Collecting random cash doesn’t look like this).

This was before Bexte began soliciting “donations” in crypto 😏

How do you know #TruckersForFreedom is an op as well as a grift? Because of the scores of troll network accounts, followed by troll farm accounts, posting fake pictures, endlessly promoting this operation. Who’s behind these troll networks? #KochNetwork #CEC #CanadaProud #GRU?
How you know #TruckersForFreedom is a con & an op part 2. #Conservative politicians are using this lie to data mine with fake “petitions” while they pump out disinformation & fundraise off it. Gratuitous lying like from Melissa Lantsman. #RageFarming #NeverVoteConservative
#TruckersForFreedom grift & op part 3.

I’ve now lost count of all the pictures & videos taken from other countries & other times claiming to be a convoy in 🇨🇦. Like this one. Claiming a video of a backed up highway at rush hour is a ‘massive convoy against vaccine mandates’ 🙄.

The political right is a Ponzi scheme using grift, disinformation & malign influence. It promotes bad faith actors like #PierrePoilievre - who spews his economic illiteracy the way anti-vaxxers spread covid disinformation. No surprise Poilievre & trolls promote cryptocurrency. ImageImageImageImage
This isn’t a benign problem. Bad faith actors like #PierrePoilievre, Keean Bexte, “Rebel” so-called News (both of which solicit “donations” in cryptocurrency), are part of a larger issue affecting #CdnNatSec #CdnEcon.

It isn’t just the volatility of #crypto. Although that too poses a multitude of problems.
As Vivaldi CEO, Jon von Tetzchner, points out, crypto is rife with issues. To say nothing of its environmental destruction. vivaldi.com/blog/why-vival…

Remember all the sleaze & shady goings on, including fraud, when #DougFord became PC party leader? It’s not just Ford. It’s an entire party of sleaze & those who stay quiet & enable/tacitly condone it in pursuit of power. #VoteThemAllOut2022 #ONpoli #cdnpoli
Then there was Team Ford’s use of trolls & other inauthentic behaviour online, including Jeff Ballingall’s malignant “Ontario Proud”, to smear opponents (esp Wynne) & manipulate the public, all amplified in both social & traditional media. #VoteThemAllOut2022 #ONpoli #cdnpoli
Then came the corruption, backroom deals & cuts right out of the gate. In addition to wealthy private interests dictating policy choices, including choices that led directly to suffering, cruelty & death (#LTCs, poverty etc). #VoteThemAllOut2022 #VoteFordOut2022 #ONpoli #cdnpoli
