This tweet, made in response by a tweet by the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, is so right on the money that I just had to share it:
Demonstration marches are organized for the purpose of making the government do something about the issue in question. The leader of the country participating in a demonstration march is completely asinine. He is, essentially, protesting for the purpose of his own government to do something.
That's like a company CEO going on strike to protest his own salary... You know, rather than just doing something about it (such as raising it outright, or speaking to the board of directors about it). Or a car mechanic posting a negative review on himself because he botched the repair of his own car.
The above is the epitome of virtue-signaling instead of doing. The epitome of engaging in empty gestures that make you feel good, rather than actually doing something. As the commenter says, he is the guy who is at the top, the one who should be doing something. He is the guy who should be in parliament doing something about it. He is the guy who this protest march is aimed at, to compel him to do something. He is essentially just demonstrating for he himself doing something, which is just asinine.
But as always, Justin Trudeau is just a clown. A clown that people keep electing into office.
