Let's not forget that honking is literally terrorism because it hurt my ears.

Depriving people of sleep for weeks on end is violence. I hope a few trucks honk outside your home for weeks. You'll change your tune in no time. Sleep depravation is literally a torture technique.

How is protest possible if disruption is terrorism? Please get a grip.

(That said, thank you for demonstrating that I wasn't exaggerating.)

I used to live in Toronto near queen's park. There were very frequent protests down yonge and in queens park. Never once in all the time I lived there was I prevented sleeping by protestors honking outside my building all night.

I was also never once confronted, cornered, harassed, or yelled at by protestors. Not once. These actions are not ok and not typical of any protest. Yes I was frequently inconvenienced with the street blocked, but that's fine, the cost of living in a democracy.

Protesting does not involve attacking fellow citizens.

Did the protests achieve anything besides re-affirming your perception that you live in a democracy?

The horn usage did not go on for weeks on end. It was an early concession to stop

It was not a "concession" it was stopped by a judge issuing an injunction because the truckers were sued by locals. That lawsuit is still ongoing.

Putting the hurt on 50k people in an attempt to coerce the government into changing policy is terrorism.

Disagree with everything you're trying to say. Terrorism has evolved into a doublespeak term used to describe your systems' quasi enemy...This was just civil disobedience and like any form of civil disobedience (that isn't directly sanctioned by government actors) they got slaughtered. The government in Canada pushed through extremely draconian Wuhan-styled lockdown rules and, just like what Camus wax-philosophized over, there's a breaking point with subjugated humans and a price those subjugating put on their own "hurt".

"The six thousand crosses which, after such a just rebellion, staked out the road from Capua to Rome demonstrated to the servile crowd that there is no equality in the world of power and that the masters calculate, at a usurious rate, the price of their own blood."

> The government in Canada pushed through extremely draconian Wuhan-styled lockdown rules

Pretty much none of "lockdown" rules were federal - and at least in my province, I never felt more than mildly inconvenienced. Literally the worst thing I experienced was a shutdown of indoor team sports for a season.

Is blocking a bridge also terrorism? Or is it just federal employees that get to not have anyone bothering them?
