Mandates or no, they must always project the attitude of being aggrieved.

Bingo. They want to feel oppressed and to feel as if they are revolting and regaining their power.

I feel like a celebrity. I was driving home from tennis Sunday afternoon, and I came across some vehicles flying American flags. One of the vehicles had a yellow flag, so I thought it might be a show of support for Ukraine.

Let’s just say I was disappointed.

What does a yellow flag indicate?

I can’t keep up.

I heard they are now protesting high fuel prices. How are they protesting? Sitting in traffic.

Not anymore.
