Australians, it is time to refuse to be socialised
Pushing Rubber Downhill ^ | 4 Sep, 2021 | Adam Piggott Gentleman adventurer

Homeschooling has greatly increased in the wake of the lockdowns imposed by pretend governments pretending to govern for the people who pretended to elect them. The argument by compliant citizens against the homeschooling of children goes something along the lines of, aren’t you afraid that your child won’t be socialised? The correct rejoinder is to declare that you don’t want your children to grow up into socialists.

Although I have been writing about Australia’s totalitarian tendencies for some time, tendencies that stretch far back in the nation’s history, that awareness has finally jumped the shark to the world stage. John Wilder has compiled a nice summation of some of the international reactions to Australia’s all-in move against its population. Today in The Australian, columnist Katrina Kelly, who usually pretends to have at least one leg over the right hand side of the fence, has penned an opinion piece titled, No protection in law for the idiocy of anti-vaxxers. The newspaper also has a real time data sheet showing the vaccination level across the entire country which currently stands at around 35%. Make of that what you will.

People are being sacked every day now for refusing to have a Covid-19 vaccine. Some are just being stood down, and given more time to get themselves organised, before the axe falls.

Pretty soon the unvaccinated probably won’t be able to catch a plane, go to a pub or a concert, eat in a restaurant, or do that seemingly most vital of activities; drink a coffee in a cafe.

This intro to the piece is presented as matter of fact. That’s just the way it is, idiot anti-vaxxers. Sorry, not sorry. But Kelly continues to examine the situation under Australia’s extensive and ridiculous anti-discrimination laws. Is it illegal in Australia to discriminate against those people who don’t care to subject their bodies to experimental gene therapy?

There is little recourse when you have been disarmed.

Back when I was homeschooling my children, the retort to "aren’t you afraid that your child won’t be socialised?" was why would I want other children to socialize my children? That simply meant, children lack the experience to properly interact and need adults to teach them. It was a backhanded insult to teachers. It didn't mean my children didn't interact with other children. They did. That is to say the "socialised" question is a red herring.

For the record, today my children are highly successful, educated adults. They have friends and are not some social pariahs.

The truckers would disagree. They are protesting by parking their trucks on the highways to shut down commerce. I notice the Government has seized a high level of censorship over this. The Government literally has the power to take over social media accounts and fake who they are.

Try and find stories about the Truckers success. It's a total blackout.

With Soviet Style funding you are going to get Soviet Style schools. To prevent a socialist take over thru brainwashing keep the the government out of the education business. Seperation of School and State is an idea whose time has come.

You have to cancel your 1 year trial of communism, or it will keep auto-renewing.

For a nation founded by former convicts, it sure seems pussification has occurred.

If it's not here now, it pretty shortly will be.

"Australians, it is time to refuse to be socialised."

It's to late for the Australia's, and after our next election it will be to late for us as well... :(

Up until 2 days ago there were quite a few Twitter posts about Ozzy truckers and protests, not so much now. I wondered it things were settling down, but apparently not.

It is hard to tell. The Government has seized a level of censorship that RATs can only dream about. The people there have not been sitting by and taking it. The protests only continue to grow and become more disruptive.

Anti-vaxxing Aussie woman arrested for "incitement" ... presumably for driving outside 5km of her home.

Video of her stop and arrest here.

The problem is that the citizens of Australia were disarmed.

A disarmed citizenry gets no vote.

On anything.

Monica Smit the arrested was the founder of a group organizing protests.

She is held under bail conditions that would require her activities and the activities of her organization to stop.

The Australian authorities no different than China or Russia or Iran nations Australian media and government often denigrate for their authoritarianism.

When you’ve been disarmed you lure armed government enforcers into an ambush, kill them, seize their weapons, lather, rinse, repeat. Soon enough you’ll be doing what the French did eighty years ago when they too were fighting a Nazi occupation.
