"Tasmania to make masks mandatory at events of 1,000 people or more." Tasmania hasn't had a single case in eighteen months. There hasn't been a single death in the state in longer than that. During that period, masks were never required anywhere outside of airports. This was never about the virus. (archive.is)

Look, I've just had a bit of a realisation, which breaks. my heart, and may very well kill me...

Australia is now in the throes of a death cult. Everyone here has collectively gone mad. Like most of you would have seen in your parts of the world last year. Except with no cases. No logic. No fucking reason.

Except for a very, very small online community of which I am a part, this rhetoric is universal. It is everywhere. Everyone is consumed by fear. Everyone is spreading panic, and lies. Society is broken. The whole social contract is broken. I'm not sure there's any way back from this. So... For those of who are still capable of thinking differently... I don't see much of an out. I'm completely broken.

If, things continuing like this, I do take "the easy out", and if I manage to get there, this time... Just... Well, I genuinely hope that you guys can keep the fight going, and push back where you can. And try and bring other people to... See things a bit more broadly. And finally, know that I did my best, and I tried really fucking hard, but sometimes... Sometimes the tide just drowns you. :-(

Don’t bitch out and kill yourself because your life won’t be as comfy as it used to be. Stay alive and use the suffering to fuel the fight that you or others who come after you will take to the oppressors down the road even if it is a decade or more away.

My heart breaks reading stuff like this. I'm not sure what you mean by taking "the easy out" but I hope it's not suicide.

There isn't much hope for based Australians right now but you have to try your best to stay healthy and alive because if things are ever going to turn around it'll only be because of people like you who see what's happening.

I know my words aren't much of a consolation. Just wanted you to know that you aren't alone.

... you have to steel your resolve, put your foot down, and say, "no."

Bro if you're actually to the point of killing yourself just move. Being an ideological refugee has to be better than that.

The Southern US is more or less back to normal and the cost of living is low.

He can't leave. Australians are literally locked into their country and are not allowed to travel.
