i really don't get how "the truckers are just poor working class people who were manipulated by evil racists" isn't regarded a fascistoid statement. it essentially says that the truckers (and other protesters) are dumb cattle. either you believe in the agency of every single human or you don't. then we can skip the democracy shenanigans at large. at least be honest.
see, if there are thousands of people are willing to protest something, they usually have weighted the risk. individual people there think the mandates are worse for them than standing there.
there may be dangerous nut-jobs among them, but to extrapolate from individuals to groups is wrong. they aren't demanding some minority to be rounded up (fun fact: that is what the "protesters are literal nazis!11" side is asking for :). they are demanding that questionable mandates are lifted. this is true for every single protest going on in the world right now.

the whole starlink thing is so frustrating
not only is a single company being allowed to fuck up astronomy and make light pollution worse for the entire planet, but even the benefits that it's supposed to have are just so weak compared to what it's advertised as
the excuse is "oh but our friendly good billionaire elon musk uwu will help people in poor countries and rural areas get access to the internet"
it's literally $100/mo
if by "poor rural areas" you mean USA, then sure

don't only rely on my words, read what happy customers wrote about me: "10/10 would buy again", "top seller, great value", "wildly incorrect", "teil des problems", "without imagination", "Repeated provocation using copy/paste.", "if you take a dump in my mentions, I just might notice the smell", "log out and never login again", "Du redest wirr.", "My brother in Christ, this is such a ridiculously dumb statement that I will no longer entertain this silly conversation.", "Auf Derailing-Diskussionen habe ich keine Lust. Finger über dem Blocken-Knopf.", "Wie gesagt, du kannst der Diskussion inhaltlich nicht folgen."
