If you head over to the domain Liar.com right now, you will be quickly redirected to the Wikipedia entry for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, a prank almost certainly stemming from support of the current anti-vaxx protests taking place in Ottawa. The demonstrations originated from a convoy of Canadian truckers opposed to cross-border vaccine mandates and continuing COVID-19 restrictions, and rapidly grew to encompass thousands of supporters, some of whom have been photographed desecrating public monuments, as well as flying Nazi swastikas and Confederate flags.
Elon Musk is a big fan of these protests, apparently. “Canadian truckers rule,” he tweeted on Friday before reminding followers that “CB radios are free from govt/media control.” He also sent out “Je m’aple syrup” to his 72.2 million followers, but in the grand scheme of things that’s neither here nor there.
No, what we’re more concerned with is a theory floated earlier today on pro-Trump message boards (and Twitter) that Musk, the Technoking himself is responsible for the Liar.com redirect. We’ve reached out to Musk for clarification on the matter, and will update accordingly. Until then, let us review the evidence.
