Conspiracy Theory Coronavirus #2: Lockdowns

[Yahru MkElvin]

Most people wouldn't give you 10 seconds of their time if you mentioned anything about consciousness and the like

Unfortunately true, I know... most people are unconscious, don't have or make the 'time' to do anything about it and ritually shoot the messenger... not entirely their fault though it is ultimately their duty of care... with a team effort of support to make the changes 🖒

blah blah blah

The usual nonsense from you.

Pretend you're some kind of freedom fighter if it helps you sleep at night though.

We are all faced with profound ethical issues everyday. The decisions we make, what we say and do even casually all creates immeasurable ripples on everyone with whom we interact.

Let me disclose the gifts reserved for age
To set a crown upon your lifetime's effort.
First, the cold fricton of expiring sense
Without enchantment, offering no promise
But bitter tastelessness of shadow fruit
As body and soul begin to fall asunder.
Second, the conscious impotence of rage
At human folly, and the laceration
Of laughter at what ceases to amuse.
And last, the rending pain of re-enactment
Of all that you have done, and been; the shame
Of things ill done and done to others' harm
Which once you took for exercise of virtue.
Then fools' approval stings, and honour stains.
From wrong to wrong the exasperated spirit
Proceeds, unless restored by that refining fire

Yep. As I said. The usual nonsense.

You'd think so, but the Government has shown they're nothing if not consistently incapable.



Wut? Jason appeared to get it on the first try, you've had a couple of goes at it now and still aren't getting it. This seems to pretty consistently be a you problem.

Unrelated to your post here so just wanting to know

Can you advise how lockdown impacts on your life?

Less than many, more than some.

I don't work for the government in any way so don't simply earn money irrespective of what goes on in society, if that's what you're angling at.

Actually, that is from a poem by T.S Eliot

Ive more than established you work for a company with heavy Chinese interests hence why you are alway sticking up for them to be fair so didnt think you were govt at all.

I think a 6 word answer probably means it doesnt impact you at all deep down. Honestly. Im yet to meet someone pro lockdown who is actually negatively impacted by it in a meaningful way is all. Wanted to know if you were going to be the 1st

And you issue with that is what?

 

[HODGEYROAD]

So frustrating the circus is still rolling on.

 

[zill]

I mean the claims you're saying they were censoring.

If you want to get angry about Facebook or Twitter censoring what people can post, then get angry about all the morons who posted absolutely made up drivel like Pete Evans that forced Governments to lean on those private platforms to implement censorship.

Govt leant on them to censor legitimate information? So you are saying social media is complicit in a coverup regarding the source of the outbreak and the side effects of a rushed, experimental vaccine rollout?

 

[WA ROO]

So happy I have never had to do any of this lockdown,mask up sign in crap
Might duck down to the local for a few after work

Just can't help yourself.

If the western world goes on to blame China - which is increasingly on the cards, Owen et al will flip overnight without missing a beat.
He/She possess an extraordinary ability to acquire selective amnesia.

We give the clown way too much attention

so anyone not falling for the China narrative that has been stoked and flamed by the US Govt, must work for a Chinese Company.

Social Media is owned by Private Companies. Facebook has blocked false and derogatory posts by vindictive Customers on Business face book pages.
Heaven forbid they should ban Trump and others.
They are a private Company, just like the Herald Sun - which is not going to publish every letter it receives.

So this is not a freedom of speech issue or censorship - it’s Private enterprise choosing to publish what it sees fit.

Most people think short term. Have forgotten all the double standard and what was said last March.

Why do these winners show up more en masse when their precious restrictions come back? If they're so wonderful why the need to defend them?


Why the cult-like following

Very unstable people. Not the least bit interrupted by it in their pathetic lives.

Holidays pure and simple. People will accept the trade off of WFH and time off against restrictions.
Also being used as an excuse to virtue signal or show off their "intelligence" via degrees or they are some frustrated scientist.
Either way information is there (what isn't censored) a year worth of statistics doesn't lie. MSM and their emotional propaganda does.
Look I get a few days off is nice and the weather is going to be good but to **** an entire state and people's livlihoods and self determination so you can be a hypochondriac or feel a snug sense of importance is selfish.
Now someone like me and (I'll assume you) think people have the right in consultantion with their doctors should make their own health decesions not via government over reach.

 

[Run n Spread]

Also why the premier announcing this or this weird special cabinet. Under Victoria's state of emergency powers this is at the discretion of the emergency services minister and their department. Anyone gets pulled up read the fine print as the legality of this is very questionable

 

[Run n Spread]

All the justification for this is asymptomatic super spreaders. Yet I'm yet to see scientific proof exists. Sure quarentine the sick (actual sick) not healthy people who get around.
Whole things a farce. If you're that desperate for a lockdown petition for a 3 day work week increased dole or part time work. This is not about public health

WA Roo with GC as his listed team. Can't really guess where you are based on that

 

[Run n Spread]

Benefits outweigh the cost for most.
Days off
Time with family
Less time with those who annoy
Paid WFH or time off
Sleep in
Be around have help with child minding
Vs
No footy travel concert sport movie etc
Notice how support plummets come summer holidays/Easter yet now winter hits and not much on everyone is in a festive mood?
Spare me this sudden concern for the public or India.

The science can tell us if there's been a super spreader event with genomic tracing. For example, one asymptomatic covid positive lady quarantining in her apartment alone uses the lift and that alone ignites a cluster of 71 cases. Science tells us she was responsible as the first in that cluster.

You also don't have to be fearful or desperate for a lockdown to agree to conduct yourself within a temporary set of rules laid out by your democratically elected government.

 

[Tiger Toffee]

Reading the states massive over the top reactions to this let's be honest very minor outbreak in melbourne compared to world levels is simply embarrassing and quite frankly hilarious.

And i love how all AFL clubs somehow managed to avoid all these hard border closures, just lucky i guess

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

What is the cycle threshold Vic use on PCR tests?

If you average over 10 disposals a game for a AFL team it’s 6 with a 48 hour incubation period. If you work at a restaurant it’a 46 with a 14 day incubation period
