Attacking someone because they're promoting democratic voting.
Rogers authoritarianism is showing.
Lefties are really against autonomy aren't they. If there's ANY chance people won't do what they demand, they'll just facist their way to it.
It goes hand in hand with the digital currency, location tracking and denial of service/censorship.
If you're forced to have a digital car that can be remotely shutdown (already happens), that can be prevented from charging (Tesla can stop your car charging remotely), forced to use tracked and monitored public transit that can deny your payment via digital currency.
They'll soon after make analogue transport illegal (fuel based cars, cycling, perhaps even as far as horses once people start resorting to that).
"You not allowed to go to this city comrade. You are not high enough social score to visit this nice place. You stay in city 17, with other scum. City Prime for social score 1000."
Same thing in Britain. Most people don't notice it, but our power is actually rationed. We have controlled brownouts and power releases. Yes yes people will argue that's just "peak production and use), but it's controlled not just for consumption reasons, it's also to ensure supply fuel doesn't run out.
But hey idiot Britain invested in nuclear energy only to make 90% of them shut down.
Everything they've described about this new wave, (more widespread, weaker) is exactly how virus propogation works. It either gets weaker but more virulent to ensure survival or it gets hardier and deadlier but has trouble spreading.
This is nothing new. If anything it's good. Almost like it's from the same family as a common cold....
Stronger small government, weaker large government.
A city SHOULD be a law unto itself (paraphrasing not literal), set their own budgets, propose their own laws.
Is this corruptible, yes. But the people can control that corruption far greater than bleed over corruption from other states and politicians because of LORG government.
The politician for a city will no longer be able to hide behind "I didn't vote for it" or "I didn't understand it".
The current large government is hiding behind nebulous concepts and have gotten comfy expecting four year terms. If they knew they could be fired by the common person, rather than their LORG government bedfellows, they know they wouldn't see a year if they carried on.
Two cases that were picked up on by media.
Now apply the ratio of reported, ignored and mocked like everything else.
There's been plenty before too but the media spun them as justified by the murderer (husband was supposedly abusive, boyfriend shouldn't have made her angry, he had it coming.)
See, the logic behind this is asinine. Their excuse is to not participate or allow Russia to participate in a shared economy.
But preventing Russians from spending money in a foreign economy doesn't harm them any. It helps them.
To actually harm the Russian economy you have to do the opposite and not BUY from the Russian economy.
The former enables Russia to hold onto capital. The latter drains them of capital. Especially if the Russians can still buy from non russian companies, but none of their own stuff is being bought.
The point of the digital currency system isn't just social credit scores either.
It enables them to separate entirely from everything, even debt. They'll track their debt still sure, it's a control device, but it's far easier to fudge a digital currency than a bank and cash system.
When inflation gets too rampant, they can just "change a few zeros", same when interest gets too uppity.
It's absolute control of finances and separating it from the consumers purchasing power.
Boycotting by refusing to buy will no longer work. You will engage in the market comrade. You will buy the bread. You will not know how much it costs one day to the next. You will not know if you are allowed to. You will not know if your A-Coins are still valid when B-Coins come in. You don't know when B-Coins will arrive.
They push it because they want everyone to become complicit.
If you're just as guilty of something as they are, they expect you to join ranks and defend the grooming otherwise you too shall go down with them.
There's a lot of people who KNOW that if they fail, they're going to jail. From "scientists", politicians, to actual scientists (who chased the money).
We see the same thing with medicine and the "pandemic" (still not had it.)
We see the same with with advocating riots and violents with CHAZ/CHOP and the BLM.
