I know, and I do what I can to resist, I swear. But in the position I am in, in the state I am in (not where the quarantine camps are, and also not in lockdown, rn...), there isn't actually all that much I can do, that I'm not already doing...
More online activism, and becoming more involved in online anti-mandate communities? Yeah, I guess...
Supporting people like me, more, and being there for them when they need it? I do that already, but I admit I could certainly do more...
Sharing more information and evidence online? Great, but we're all so powerless to actually change this, so... I dunno.
I guess my next "mission" is to support the community we are building against this, and get back into my fitness and martial arts work... And to argue against this stuff more. But dude, I do... KNOW that, already. I just... Genuinely have very little power to really fight it, effectively.
That's not a cop out. It's the truth. I guess I just have to keep working at it, to build towards reaching a point where I DO have more influence to fight this, hopefully before it's too late... :-S
Also, if protests happen where I am, I will obviously attend them. Perhaps I will look into an organising role, in the future. But right now, not being in lockdown, here, there just... Isn't that much of an organised resistance, so if I... Did anything, on my own, I would just be arrested and treated like a pariah, in the state I'm stuck in (for now)...
Depressing, and kind of pathetic, I know, but that's the truth... :-/
The government is about to start contacting citizens randomly, and if they don't take a picture of themselves where they're "supposed" to be, they'll send police.
They're also looking into tying social media accounts with government ID, so they can better charge people for wrong think.
They're knocking on people's doors asking if they know anyone who's thinking about protesting. They're on video months ago breaking multiple peoples' doors down and arresting them because they posted about protests online.
They sent a letter that a vaccine passport isn't a passport, it's a reward.
I have no idea why West Australians are among the dumbest people on earth but it is what it is. The weird thing is I live here too and notice how stupid basically everyone is, I don’t know what I did differently. In between the COVID/hard border insanity and the almost daily back burning making it uncomfortable to breathe the ‘fresh’ air, it is almost hell on earth here. Yet WA re-elected McGowan with around 90% of seats. I just hope America turns around soon, nothing good will happen here.
You fucking idiot. This is not the problem. They can disinfect the stadium as many times as they like and it will not infringe upon people's rights one iota. Save your outrage for the lockdowns, the Social Credit system and other authoritarian bullshit.
Uhh, yes it fucking is the problem... Do you really think they could get away with any of that if it wasn't for the fear, propaganda, lies and panic that they are deliberately spreading?! Do you **really think they did this for any other purpose than Covid "theatre", to scare people shitless, and to demonise the Eastern states? Have you SEEN any Australian media lately??!
This is important because it's symbolic, completely ridiculous, and would be perceived as completely absurd even if it happened in fucking Victoria right now...
So no, fuck you. At least this actually matters, unlike your fucking Blizzard takeover bullshit. Come on.
Try actually living under this shit for a while. You'll soon see why "symbolic" shit like this actually DOES matter.
I'm Australian, dumbass. I am living under this shit. And why the fuck would I care about Victoria's opinion on sanitising the stadium when 80% of the country's COVID deaths happened on their watch? They are only examples of what not to do.

Screw the past, Australia's a penal colony now.

I once saw an aussie eat a cactus, spines and all. What happened to you guys?
