And it doesn’t negate the fact this is an occupation by terrorists and enemies of the state funded heavily by foreign anonymous donors.
It’s an act of war. Sloly is correct that municipal law enforcement isn’t equipped to address an army of terrorists.
You need actual evidence before making an accusation.
If Sloly is complicit, he will be removed and replaced. If he is innocent and just a disillusioned conservative voter, he won’t be removed.
Trial and conviction by SM knee jerk emotional reactions are unhelpful.
The information he donated to a conservative candidate, even a cray cray conservative candidate is not an admission of guilt. It does raise suspicions and should be checked out.
But IT IS NOT EVIDENCE OF GULT AND CULPABILITY FOR THE OCCUPATION OF OTTAWA.
Get a fricking grip on reality and stop running with interesting tidbits and calling for conviction by public perception.
This is why panic, rage and fear are not your friend right now.
Critical thinking skills are required to work through the logic.
When this started it was viewed as a protest. MSM continues to refer to it as a protest.
But it’s not a protest. It’s an occupation by domestic & foreign agitators paid for by domestic and foreign radicalized extremists. Many of whom have remained anonymous.
A political donation is not confirmation of ideological complicity and corrupt behaviour to help the occupiers.
It’s a political donation. That’s it.
Has he made other donations in the past? Did he donate to other candidates or the party separately?
Is there an exchange of funds recently? A question unable to be answered unless you have access to Sloly’s bank accounts. Meaning, it takes law enforcement credentials to determine Sloly’s complicity.
This is mobbing behaviour and characteristically no different than the thugs occupying Ottawa and a number of other Canadian cities.
A single fact extrapolated as a guilty plea is not grounds for conviction.
Get ahold of your emotions and use your cognitive gifts to recognize irrationality.
Vigilante amateur research and irrational leaps of logic conclusions is exactly how the idiots sitting in the street for where they are.
There’s no need to metaphorically join them.

We give these people legitimacy by not challenging their extremist beliefs. By accepting far right ideology as legitimate and acceptable for a pluralist social democracy, we make it an available option.
@leftmindset@albertaNDP We must remove that option. Some people believe in anarchy, communism, fascism. But as a society we reject those options because they are inconsistent with democratic principles.
Authoritarian theocracy is incompatible with democratic governance.
@leftmindset@albertaNDP People are free to prefer authoritarianism, but they are not free to impose those beliefs on the rest of us.
But that’s what is happening. Libertarians have rejected democracy, the social contract, pluralism, humanism, secularism and liberalism.
Clinging to the false narrative and belief that this is about freedom and liberty and is just a rowdy protest, they’ve convinced themselves (with much SM help) that police should have had this shut down in a day.
Completely ignoring details that demonstrate this is not a protest but a well planned coordinated attack on democracy. Sanctioned by Kenney and UCP and federal conservative MPs.
They’re listening to the gaslighting of trolls and bots.
Their tunnel vision precludes them from considering anything they can’t see through the end of the tunnel.
Frankly I’m sick of it and it needs to be called out!
People, open your eyes & remove the tunnel vision. Look beyond the end of your nose, for once.
I wrote this thread the day after the last federal election.
I was angry. And scared. I knew a minority government was less equipped to address the expected insurrection and attempt at a coup. I knew a coup was being planned since 2019.
While we are all in a state of trauma because Dominionist Christians are occupying public spaces of Canadian cities and harassing healthcare workers and citizens, Robert Fife is revealing his Kremlin issued cards.
Spreading damaging and scandalous propaganda to smear the federal government while simultaneously advancing a clearly Russian agenda.
If you were wondering about Russian involvement in this nation wide siege by Q’Anon nuts and Evangelical Christians, wonder no more.
Fife is letting us all know Canadian conservatives are as deeply embedded in Russian collusion as Trump and Republicans GOP.
Check out the amplifiers of this disinformation.
Notice that commentary is representing both left and right libertarians.
@mattgurney’s analysis is relatively accurate. But it’s incomplete.
He’s looking at the situation as a military situation. And it is, but the group of people behind this are using terrorist tactics.
They’re hiding behind women and children. A bouncy castle is a dead giveaway.
So who are these people who have placed numerous children in the middle of a military siege?
They are primarily Dominionist Christian nationalists and conspiracy theorist Q’Anon. Some white supremacists, left and right anarchists, a few radicalized FN and paid saboteurs.
