Scandale du Jour

Where have I talked about the victims?
You're making stuff up here.
I'm repeating that a leader of a free democratic country is using those threats on his own people.
I don't necessarily agree with the truckers here.
If a south American country was doing the same, Trudeau would point the finger. That's the hypocrisy I'm talking about here.
My problem with your argument is that you are putting everything on the same level. Same when we discuss the Qataris versus other shady owners.
I am not making things up, I am just providing context to the example you are using. Like Trudeau doing that is not on the same level as Poutine invading a free country (with its own immoral tendencies, I concur) for imperialistic reasons. If you want to argue that Canada has imperialist policies too, fine. If you want to argue that Canada going to Afghanistan was wrong, fine. If you want to argue that it makes Canada (and the West) hypocrites, fine. But your current example is a bad one.
If you want to argue that the sanctions on Russian teams/the national team are hypocritical AND also imperialistic in nature. I won't fight that. But let's not put all evil on the same level.
