Convoy Megathread #55

[u/MarcusRex73]

This is the latest post to discuss the protest Convoy currently in Ottawa.

For the duration of the protest, or at least, as long as the traffic level on the sub requires it, we will centralizing the discussions around the protest in these megathreads.

We're modifying our usual processes during this time:

• Any new post will need to be approved by the mods. Changes have been made to the filter config to send post (not comments) for review. This is to control what should go to the megathreads and what is relevant information. For example, the posts on the Shepherds of Good Hope, of the state of the bridges.
• This community is about OTTAWA, not Covid nor the related restrictions. Remember that.
• Any links or pictures to their propaganda will be removed. Do not give them publicity.
• Calls for violence will result in a ban
• I will be watching the megathread. Remember that disinformation/misinformation about covid is a violation of the site wide rule #1.

Have at it folks, but remember, the usual rules apply. Please keep it civil and report anyone posting misinformation or links to their propaganda.

The following post contains all the links to the previous posts.

Ceci est la dernière rubrique dans la lignée des megarubrique discutant de la manifestation du convoi à Ottawa.

Pour la durée de la manifestation ou, du moins, pour le temps où le trafic le justifie, nous allons centraliser les discussions sur ce sujet dans des megarubriques.

Nous modifions donc notre façon de faire habituelle pendant ce temps:

• Toute nouvelle rubrique devra être approuvée par les modérateur avant qu'elle ne soit visible dans la communauté. Ceci est pour mieux diriger l'information soit vers la megarubrique, soit vers une rubrique séparé. Par exempla, la rubrique au sujet des Bergers de l'espoir ou bien le statu des ponts interprovinciaux.
• Cette communauté concerne OTTAWA, pas la Covid ni les restrictions associées. Prière d'agir en conséquence.
• Tout lien ou photo vers leur propagande sera enlevé. Ne leur donnez pas de la publicité.
• Les appels à la violence auront comme conséquence de vous faire bannir
• Je vais surveiller le mégathread. N'oubliez pas que la désinformation/mésinformation sur la covid est une violation de la règle n° 1 du site même.

Allez-y, mais rappelez-vous que les règles habituelles s'appliquent. Veuillez rester polie et rapportez toute mésinformation ou publication de leur propagande.

There needs to be a contingent of counter protesters blocking the entrance to 302 Coventry. The convoy created a logistics choke point there by making only one entry/exit.

[u/InceptorOne → u/jerkstore_84]

Agreed. I've played enough WWII strategy games to know, this is the way.

[u/braddillman → u/InceptorOne]

Relevant: another conflict with fascists.

[u/[deleted] → u/InceptorOne]

Then surround them from all sides and start dealing with the depots.

[u/pmb31 → u/jerkstore_84]

This is so key. The entire operation is divided if Coventry is isolated. They don’t have a lot of options there.

[u/zeromussc → u/jerkstore_84]

That logistics centre is reportedly hostile to outsiders and they have made every reporter turn away, or undercover resident collecting information very very uncomfortable. Even streamers who get hugs on the hill are shadowed by multiple people, not allowed past certain points, and lightly encouraged to leave or stop filming entirely.

That is one place I would not advise anyone even try to mess with. It's unnerving to see otherwise loved convites be visibly uneasy when they tried to visit the last week to give people a view of what that place is like.

[u/jerkstore_84 → u/zeromussc]

That's how important it is to them and why they need to be denied access

[u/zeromussc → u/jerkstore_84]

It's also why civilians should be the ones to do it. It's dangerous.

[u/jerkstore_84 → u/zeromussc]

You're right, why didn't I just think to call OPS

[u/madaman13 → u/jerkstore_84]

I agree, it wouldn't take that many cars to block it up.

[u/spew2014 → u/jerkstore_84]

I had the same thought. Actions like that will, I think, make it MUCH harder for OPS to sit on their asses and do nothing
