New Zealand locked down hard and it's an island so they were able to keep the infection out.

Now the vaccines are worn off and useless without continual boosters and they have near zero natural immunity so they are panicked about it getting started there.

What they should be doing is inviting God's gift of omicron into their country because it's close enough to give immunity to bad covid, but future endemic covids will be enough different to not protect from read covid. Years from now real covid will sneak in and decimate them. They'll get it from eating some chinese chicken or just some rando will fly in sick from wherever Delta is still lurking.

They've basically done everything wrong, all while the faucists praise them as being the smart ones.

There really isn't a "bad Covid" but I get what you're saying.

the first strain was really bad. unless youre accepting chinas numbers and they had barely any deaths from it, besides dissenters.

The first strain had a survival rate of 99.998% for 95% of the population.

94% of all Covid deaths had at least 2.5 co-morbitities.

75% of all Covid deaths had 4 or more co-morbitities.

If they would let Omicron in right now, you could at least make an argument that their approach had some advantages. At the cost of 2 years of paranoia, they prevented the coronavirus from getting in until most people could be vaccinated and a more benign variant emerged.

To do this now is madness though. Precisely because the current vaccine' protection against infection declines rapidly. I guess they could be waiting for a special Omicron vaccine, but that is a very high cost, dubious reward proposition.

Of course, I'm talking rubbish, because none of this is about public health, but a dry-run for tyranny.

In 1215:

No Freeman shall be taken, or imprisoned, or deprived of his Freehold or Liberties or free Customs, or be outlaw’d or exiled or any otherwise destroyed nor will we pass upon him nor condemn him but by the Judgment of his Peers or the Law of the Land.

In 2022: this.

What do they think they're going to do when the rest of the world has dropped their restrictions and has accepted endemic covid?

They are going to be left as a lone nation with a population with lower levels of covid antibodies than everyone else.

All they are succeeding in doing is delaying when their big infection wave happens.

Yeah, this one was very… “Blackpilling”, for me.

I think I need a bit of a break from all this shit, for today… 😑

It’s not sustainable to keep going over and over this stuff. I don’t watch the news anymore, either, because it is frankly just insane…

Even outside of Coof, the whole “beating you over the head with wokeness” thing is just so exhausting…

Sometimes, you really can be “too informed”. Especially when it’s something you can’t really change, yourself…

Women have no need for freedom. They will choose protection, safety, and submission to authority every single time.

decisions that sacrifice freedom for safety and provision ALWAYS sound better to them, internally. It is in accordance and harmony with their natural, base instincts.

stop electing women into positions of power.

It would not work, because the assassination of even tyrants results in a wave of sympathy - and increased repression by the state. It also helps that even talking about it allows them to isolate you.

The two assassination attempts against Hitler resulted in much sympathy from even Catholics and social democrats, the most stalwart opponents of the regime.

Revolutions are not wars. Revolutions have to follow a war. For one simple reason. The victor determines.

If one side wins, it's a rebellion, uprising, domestic terrorism. If the other wins, it's revolution.

But the point is that since the revolution precedes the war, it certainly was not caused by the war.

This is a mentality to absolve those in charge of their actions

By no means. Just because there are many others who would do it in their place, does not mean that they are not to blame for their actions.

Of course there are, but you need to start somewhere

I'm not saying not to try to depose these leaders. Just that what you speculated about was extremely ineffective. A removal based on the fact that these policies are bad, would probably be effective. Not so an assassination - that would just make them martyrs and lead someone just as bad, if not worse, to take their place.

Now, speaking hypothetically, if you have the support of the vast majority of people - that strategy might even work. But it will not work when you follow a minority position, unless the individual in question is highly competent or important to the regime. A Stolypin or a Hitler, which is not the case here.

so stop being a spineless bitch

So people who don't support dangerous and highly ineffective strategies are spineless bitches now?

There is nothing saying you stop with just the first leader.

You're not going to be around. They'll crack down and have an excuse for it.
