Starting my thread for today's #halifaxconvoy: activity is starting to pick up on the Zello channel "Halifax Convoy 2022". So far they've banned a user just for having "BLM" in their username.

#flutruxklan #FluTruxKlanGoHome #CoupTruxKlan
The convoy types on the Zello are monitoring Halifax traffic and police presence, and the availability of parking spaces around Peace and Friendship park.
The Zello #tonkatantrum mods seemed to have added a new moderator, and it looks as if it's failed PPC candidate Michelle Lindsay, in case anyone was wondering if that party is full to the roof with absolute loons.

#halifaxconvoy #FluTruxKlan #CoupTruxKlan
They're planning to arrive at Peace and Friendship Park for 3pm. Getting there first and occupyng the parking spaces woth other vehicles would impede them somewhat.
#halifaxconvoy
We have our first #ramranchresistance zello audio message of the day, lol, lmao, give 'em hell (and well-hung cowboys)
They appear to be expecting some resistance this time:
Zello mods reporting a small police presence at VIA Rail, which I'm assuming is the one across from Peace and Friendship Park.

Some confusion as to whether the Enfield convoy was going to Halifax or Truro first.
Update: they mad, and there are other Zello channels apparently. I'll try to sniff them out. #FluTruxKlan #TonkaTantrum #halifaxconvoy
Update: we have our first instance of "Ram Ranch" song being played over the Zello! 🤠🤠🤠🤠

They're already afraid to share info on this channel, which means we are having a material effect on their comms.
Zello channel now reporting the police are "blocking off around Peace and Friendship park", saying there are cruisers and bike cops. Stay safe everyone!
This is a description of one of the #halifaxconvoy Zello mods' vehicles. Like all True Canadian Patriots, he has an american Gadsden flag on his white (lol) Ford F150.

Vehicle just left downtown headed for the circ.
#TonkaTantrum Zello now reporting that Superstore on Barrington has a security guard requiring people parking in their lot (across from P&F Park) to be shopping there as well. I am not confident this will last but be advised if you're heading that way. #FluTruxKlan #halifaxconvoy
Interestingly, they're reporting there's "no vehicular access to the (Peace & Friendship) park, by which I assume they mean the streets *around* the park, but maybe they were planning to drive vehicles *into* the park itself?
Rumours on the #halifaxconvoy zello about a maskless mob at Micmac Mall and a large police presence there in anticipation of it.
Now *this* is interesting: cops rebuffing a #halifaxconvoy organizer's attempt to talk to them at Mic Mac Mall, and apparently there are three vehicle inspection units there in addition to the cops.

This strategy was used effectively in Quebec as well. #FluTruxKlan #nspoli
Another update from the convoy Zello channel; increased police presence at Peace and Friendship Park, all entrances to the park are blocked. #halifaxconvoy #nspoli
Update: #halifaxconvoy types starting to clue in about the nazis in their movement co-opting "honk honk" to mean "heil hitler/88", and continuing to exhibit magical thinking when it comes to the law.
Update: they mad (and misogynist)
#nspoli #halifaxconvoy

Flag-in-bio twitter never fails to disappoint.
Cops seem to have a number of checkpoints set up on the 111 and Bayers Rd.; relative chaos in the #halifaxconvoy zello channel.

#nspoli #FluTruxKlan
Confusion in the Zello; some guy named Tim Flynn from Windsor asking repeatedly to speak to a head organizer about the convoy route from Enfield. #nspoli #FluTruxKlanGoHome
The #RamRanchResistance may seem juvenile, but it's preventing this #halifaxconvoy from using voice chat openly, slowing their comms. 🤠🤠🤠🤠 #nspoli #FluTruxKlan #FluTruxKlanGoHome
These people really think they're going to overthrow the gov't? Zello users on the channel using red downvotes as "hearts" lol, lmao
Zello chatter saying there's lots of sidesteet parking by the park
Cops have Argyle at Duke, Barrington at Duke, and Bell at Ahern blocked.
#FluTruxKlan: OUR CONVOY IS ENORMOUS

Unvaccinated Canadians are a big part ot the reason immunocompromised Canadians are prisoners in their own homes. The unvaccinated made their choice, the immunocompromised did not. Sorry you can't fly to Punta Gorda, karen
And *why* can't Karen fly to Punta Gorda? Well, because even in the US - the Land Of The Free Freedomy Freedomers, whose flag antivaxxers glibly wave and call themselves "patriots" - you have to be vaccinated to enter the country.

cdc.gov/coronavirus/20…
Just ruminate on that for a minute - you have to be vaxxed to enter FLORIDA.

Some reflections on this thread's aftermath.

First, I was really unprepared for how well it would perform! Many tweets in the thread had more likes and retweets than anything I'd ever done previously. 1/n

#FluTruxKlan #cdnpoli
I knew *I* was seeing an uptick in bad-faith/inauthentic interactions, but others are seeing it in huge numbers and this really seemed to cause the thread to resonate strongly with a lot of users, particularly new users. 2/n
Also notable was the number of folks in the scientific community who are constantly bombarded by horse-paste quackery and are grateful for any help in STEMming the tide (har har). 3/n

Folks, it's time to talk about how to deal with bots on Twitter, strap in. 1/n

#nspoli #FluTruxKlan #FluTruxKlanGoHome #cdnpoli #ableg #onpoli #KarenKonvoy #tonkatantrum
The foreign-funded insurrection we are witnessing is backed by a lot of the same methods we see in the states - bot accounts being used to get hashtags trending and create the appearance of broad support. 2/n
Many of these accounts were either started in the last six months, or are old, abandoned accounts which were compromised in a password leak. In either case they tend to have few followers, and many have very few tweets that aren't replies. 3/n

Tonight let's review the working-class heroes of the #FluTruxKlan! #nspoli

Is "Lexi" the plural of "Lexus"? Why not? Here's a pair of Lexi, freedoming their rights and rising up in unison with their comrades: white lexus in halifax "convoy"black lexus in halifax "convoy"
Their comrades of course being the drivers of these beemers!

#nspoli #FluTruxKlan #FluTruxKlanGoHome #TonkaTantrum black beemer in halifax "convoy" blue lexus in halifax "convoy"
Not to be outdone, how about a Land Rover and an Audi! How authentic! Absolute salt of the earth, these folks, calloused hands and hearts of gold.

Man, it's too bad gas and diesel don't have a clearly discernable odour which differentiates them from water, or this would be trivial to deal with.

#OttawaSiege #FluTruxKlan #TonkaTantrum
I drained my generator's fuel tank this weekend and had to douse my hands in vinegar to get the smell off, guess I was just imagining that, too bad.
If the cops "don't know" there isn't water in them, they also "don't know" there isn't booze, in what is an inherently open container. They could stop folks and ask to smell it.

They can act; they just won't.

I'm on the ground in Halifax, observing the #FluTruxKlan temper tantrum. Already I've observed police arresting a lone counter-demonstrator, and was literally told by a cop to "join the group".
I'm monitoring their Zello channel (Halifax Convoy 2022) and appears the convoy is a bit fragmented: Image
They caused an accident on Quinpool, emergency vehicles struggled to get through: Image
