I'm pretty sure OP is explicitly NOT assigning/painting left and right, but rather saying with the "pulled back the veil of opposition" comment that left vs rig

  I'm confused, aren't the protestors and their entire cause very openly right leaning? Or am I getting browbeaten for making the connection the specific working class are in fact right leaning... OP didn't write their comment in a vacuum. Can we not pretend that we're unable to apply context, like a massive conservative movement sparked by conservative anti vaxx sentiment.

    > by conservative anti vaxx sentiment. This same group of truckers who repeatedly say that they are not anti vaxx but anti mandate and are more than 95% vaccinated anyway. Okay, buddy.

      Patronizing sign offs like "Okay, buddy" are surely a sign of a strong argument. As are showing off facts that are completely baseless. For example, sounds like you confused the numbers for vaccination from the CTA about all truckers? Since the certainly no rigorous numbers specific to the protestors... The CTA is the largest organization of truckers and yet... “CTA believes such actions — especially those that interfere with public safety — are not how disagreements with government policies should be expressed.” - Kudos though, you totally pulled a fast one on dang acting like this was "about both sides" Unfortunately you've slowly started to leak out the vitriol very closely associated with one side of these protests...
