Australia has gone stark, raving mad: They have a government in the grip of such acute COVID fear that it goes full fascist
American Thinker ^ | 08/23/2021 | Andrea Widburg

Australia's New South Wales has gone stark, raving mad. Eleven days ago, it renewed complete lockdowns, including barring people from speaking to each other, thanks to a few hundred new cases and the deaths of two men in their 90s. These new cases were on top of the 12,588 cases and 91 deaths since last February, out of a population of 5.3 million — in other words, numbers that aren't even a statistical blip.

That, it turns out, was the beginning. The state shepherded tens of thousands of children into arenas and injected them with vaccines, it's arresting people for leaving their homes, and it's shooting dogs. No wonder Australians are starting to riot.

On August 12, I wrote about the decision in New South Wales (which is the most populous state and home to Sydney, Australia's largest city) to reinstate lockdowns. For a disease with a >99% survival rate, people were told they could leave their homes only to get food, go to work, or get medical treatment. Even worse, aside from telling people to refrain from all social interactions, the premier, Gladys Berejiklian, told people to inform on each other, a classic totalitarian move that destroys familial and social bonds.

Meanwhile, Canberra, Australia's capital city, has announced that there's a goal for the lockdown: it will continue until the virus is gone. Of course, viruses are never gone, especially viruses that have been manufactured in a lab to go directly to a human host, without the necessity of an intervening animal. Even if Canberra temporarily gets to zero cases, the moment people from the outside world enter (and they will), COVID comes right back again.

Believe it or not, it got worse after that.

Everyone knows how Neocons think

When you have massive top-down government health services in control, you get neocon war-mongering, just applied to health-care

Irrationality and madness.

Induced or cultivated by disproportionate fear.

Speaking of control, get a load of this...

By August 16, the new rule was that if you wanted to drink alcohol outdoors (perhaps on your patio, given how locked in everyone was), you had to keep your mask on.  Maybe there's some logic behind that but I don't see it.

The Australian government also went after the children.  The Health Minister announced that 24,000 children would be herded into a stadium — without their parents — and injected:

AUSTRALIA- 24,000 children will be vaccinated in a stadium next week. No parents will be allowed access.

The Covid Kaisers will be voted out of office in the next election.

Won’t they?

What is the market share of Amazon there?

Much of the Covid hysteria has been driven as a strategy for online retail to gain advantage.

And for tech companies software (virtual meetings) etc... To become ubiquitous.

Tyranny is inevitable once the citizens are disarmed.

So “democracy” is supposed to fix this.

If the elected government goes nuts, the electorate is supposedly able to replace them.

In many US states the Recall institution is there for that. We are currently doing just that in California. In New York, other methods accomplished the same result.

But what if the miscreant government refuses to be replaced, similar to the mass fraud that installed the now obviously incompetent and dangerous Biden “administration”?

Then all bets are off, and the feedback mechanism known as “the vote” gets short circuited.

That is what remains to be seen in Australia. Will they put up with this crap? In France, there’s no hesitation to take to the streets and depose the government. The Anglo world is not quite like that. But in the old Britain, the vote was everything: Winston Churchill was escorted out of 10 Downing Street unceremoniously on his last day as PM in 1946, war hero or not.

If they vote these tyrants out, will that be the case?

Yes indeed. Australia had a National give up your guns campaign a few years back. These fascist plans have been in the works for a while now.

These people are retarded. Even if the virus did disappear in humans, it can reservior in mammals, so all the kangaroo and sheep are probably spreading it among each other, ready to reinfect humans.

“AUSTRALIA- 24,000 children will be vaccinated in a stadium next week. No parents will be allowed access.”

Last week I commented that this is really more a cultlike ritual than a public Heath event.

It is my understanding that covid-19 does infect wildlife. Though it doesn’t seem to be killing them they are a habitat for the virus to linger. In other words, it won’t ever go away.

Since the public is locked indoors, they wouldn’t even know.

Wow. That stadium must have had the same atmosphere as an Aztec ritual killing day.
