Standoff at Coutts, Media PSY OP Brewing

So Far Mostly Bought Sourpusses With Syringes On Their Lecterns Vs. Tens of Thousands of Truck Drivers So Loved, People Are Standing Around In 30 Below Temperatures, Happier Than They Have Ever Been

[This post was supposed to run this morning. I hope it’s still timely.]

Below is a mainstream media report of the standoff at Coutts. Listen to it, and then watch it with the sound turned off.

I was astonished to see, literally, syringes as graphic symbolism on the front banners of those politicians attacking the convoy, and also shocked (but not surprised) to hear that “stepping on people’s toes” is something they now apparently oppose. (The woman who owns the pottery shop.)

How are there people like this, so perfectly unjust, so utterly bereft even, of irony?

On the freedom fighter side, I was watching this, and so far, I understand there is somebody called “Portland Andy” who is having a huge impact and some kind of new brigade called “Hot Dog Heroes.” I love it!

I usually figure basics out before I post but we are truly all following together here in real time.

”The hot dog heroes? Celia do you realize how funny that is?” my father would say, if he were here.

I sense that exquisite Canadian humor emerging, which, truth be told, I’d forgotten about.

Now I will go figure out who the Hot Dog Heroes are, and whether I can lend support somehow. (I know most of you already know, probably, and will clue me in fast.)

All levity aside, the PSY OP makers are trying to paint a picture of:
1. Protesters seeking to crash the Canadian economy.
(Rich. I know.)
2. Canadians being denied food.
3. Truckers attacking cops.

The question of the era: What do you do against a PSY OP?

How do you cut a PSY OP off at the knees, when it cares nothing for truth, reality, footage, sources, interviews, context, etc?

A PSY OP is in essence an industrial guilt trip, pollinated electronically that overtakes reality, and displaces it with a set of synthetic accusations that can rarely be overcome. A PSY OP is designed that way.

I’m not asking what the human truth is right now—this I know. I’m asking how the convoy and its supporters can anticipate the coming media generated PSY OP that will justify whatever actions they eventually take.

If we can cripple a PSY OP before it pounces, we can liberate ourselves. This is what we need to figure out next. Getting out in front of PSY Ops and neutralizing them.
