The only way this is ever going to end is if the Aussies start playing Minecraft in the streets.
The only Aussie with the balls to do so is in prison in New Zealand.
Totally not tyranny, right?
"Tyranny is fine if it keeps us safe." - Aussies
Might as well lock them all up in prison, because then the state can mandate and control everything they do, to keep them safe. I guess if they all comply, their country becomes their prison.
For anybody else curious wtf is a singles bubble:

Nominated visitor ("singles bubble")
If you live alone – which means there are no other adults who live in the same home – you can have a nominated visitor.
A nominated visitor is one person you can socialise with at your place of residence who
From 12:01am, Saturday 21 August, if you live in 1 of the local government areas of concern, you’ll need to register your COVID-19 nominated visitor (‘singles bubble’ visitor).
This is insane.
Imagine the crew of lunatics who sat aroudn a table and worked out all of these rules.
Absolute Munchausen by proxy.
No, just simple totalitarianism. If they were as worried about COVID as they pretend to be, they wouldn't have worked so hard to bring it into the country.
If these restrictions were a plot point in a dystopian movie the audience would laugh at how over the top it was.
This is what really gets me. The evil is plain to see and we have generations of people who've been trained to snarl at it whenever it's presented in film but who are somehow unable to recognize it playing out in their own lives. It's revolting.
This reminds me of a conservation I was having with someone about an old movie villain... not an over-the-top super villain, but the rich, incestuous kind. The other person was talking about how so much more evil it is when the person is a relatable, realistic figure, and how people do absolutely nothing to stop that kind of evil in real life because it's not so apparent, but that maybe if people were more aware they would take the necessary action to bring them to justice
This is where I interjected and brought up how even in real life, when people are made aware of such villains, they make excuses and ignore it. I pointed to Hunter Biden, and linked to them the site that catalogs his videos and screenshots from his laptop where he's engaged in illegal activity, similar to the very movie villain we were discussing. Hilariously enough, the person (a Liberal), hand-waves Hunter's transgressions away, saying "I found an article on Snopes that says none of that is true." I told him to look at the link and see the photos/videos for himself and he said "I'm not looking at anything that might get the FBI after me. But I'll trust Snopes".
So you're 100% correct. Some people are so stupid and blind that even when it's obvious to see, they would rather stick their head in the sand rather than disrupt their blissfully ignorant worldview.
This is also why I laugh whenever someone starts going on about how important the truth is to them and how much they value it, as if it's some ice cream cone they really like. Anyone who has encountered Truth knows it to be a cripplingly heavy burden. It is something to be valued but it is not something the majority of people actually seek. Most simply want the social approval of being a Good Person Who Values the Truth. The weight of actually doing so would break each and every one of these shallow fools.
Around 2018-2019 I started to see people question the results of the Milgram Experiment and the Stanford Prison Experiment, claiming the experiments were flawed and difficult to replicate. The implication being (I guess) that people wouldn't really act like that outside of an experimental scenario.
I haven't heard anyone try to make those arguments recently.

"Hahaha that was such a good movie. I'm glad that we don't live in such a dystopian nightmare, right? We would fight back right?"

"Right?"

Welcome to Chinstralia...where we have officially sold out. That's my comment. Now awaits the secret police to show up on my door step. Wouldn't want to offend Warden Dan.
Never got out of the habit of being a prison colony, did they?
Winter in Canada might look a lot like this.
Well ... the Canadian isolation is usually due to 5 feet of snow. Not 5 feet of newspaper propaganda.
Uhh, have you read any Canadian newspapers?
Remember, you are "free."
chinese virus
chinese society
1400 police and 500 ADF personnel marching the streets enforcing law is not a super spreader at all...meanwhile some protestors marching the streets of Melbourne today will be all over the news tonight demonized as "Super Spreaders"
I guess that pesky virus doesn't effect authoritarian pigs. Just us peasants.
I love it, the same leftist last year who were crying for the de funding of police everywhere are the same ass wipes cheering the police on as they pepper spray protestors today.
I hate this fucking world! You get everything you fucking deserve at this point. Sorry, I know that sounds very nihilistic but as someone who lives in this country, I am losing hope gradually by the day.
Allowing women to run society was a mistake. We are now such slaves to emotion and "empathy" that natural rights are dead. I don't care if it's "sexist". They are bringing us backwards in time, before the Enlightenment...
Locking you in your house is not the beginning of a conversation, it's a declaration of war. Never give up your guns.
Con on, Australia, it’s time to embrace those jailbird roots.
Oh we're embracing our jailbird roots all right...the majority is happy enough to sit on their fat asses in their jail cells watching netflix and getting their daily one hour allowed exercise.
They're embracing their jailbird roots alright. They're being good little prisoners in their own homes. (while they still own those homes)
Makes me wonder, at what point will people finally wake up? When food is taken from them? When their houses are taken from them? At what point do people finally wake up to what's really going on here?
First they came for their guns Now they are just following orders

Meanwhile, operation Down With Tyrants is just ramping up.

Prison Island.
The person who died was over 80 and already sick.
So a communist/leftist powergrab by not letting any good tragedy go to waste.
Correct
Mortality rate? They have had around 950 deaths in the last 18 months. Population 25 million.
Average age of death. 84.6 years.
Of those over age 90 who contract covid, 60% survive.
It is an almost non-existent illness.
The usual signs of vulnerablity include leukemia, dementia, heart disease, liver cancer, beng on anti-cancer drugs...
You get the picture. If you are at death's door, covid may push you through it, but not otherwise.
This seems to indicate this is a permanent state then, since it’s been established without just cause to begin with.
Our feminized society has ceased to operate on numbers, facts, and reason, remember? Your question is silly and irrelevant in a Western world run on emotion.
Their conservatives exist within a different Overton Window than, say, Tennessee conservatives. If this was tried where I live there would be blood in the streets. People still make bathtub moonshine out here and don't take kindly to our mental midget overlords.
Their 'conservatives' are still hard Auth leftists
"""Conservative"""
Heavy use of quotations. At this point, the only thing they're conserving is their own incrementally increasing power.
