New rules may allow Australian police to detain “conspiracy theorists” The Australian state is rolling out increasingly fascistic laws, when will people finally say enough is enough?

New rules passing in the Australian state of Victoria could see “conspiracy theorists” and those “suspected by health authorities of being likely to spread the virus” detained in quarantine centres, according to The Age

The rules are amendments being added to the Omnibus (Emergency Measures) Bill, which was first passed back in April.

The proposed detention would last “for the period reasonably necessary to eliminate or reduce a serious risk to public health”.

To translate that from bureaucrat into English: it means as for long as they want, or can get away with.

Legislation with this kind of vague verbiage is always a red flag, but then Victoria is currently over-flowing with warning signs of this kind.

Victoria – The World’s Fascist Test Run?

Maybe you haven’t been following exactly how bad things are getting in Australia – and most especially Victoria – but they have essentially aggressively seized their opportunity to create a fascist micro-state. A social Petri dish, in which to culture some tyranny.

They have declared both a “state of emergency” AND a “state of disaster” for a disease which has killed fewer than a thousand people in 9 months across the entire country.

For a sense of perspective, in 2018 over three times as many people died of influenza, and the same number again committed suicide.

As of right now Australia has just 16 cases of coronavirus classified as “severe”.

And yet, among other highly authoritarian regulations in place, Victoria currently has:

  • A curfew, everybody must be home by 9pm and remain there until 5am.
  • Special work permits for “essential workers”, which must be carried at all times and presented to any law enforcement officer that asks.
  • Police check points on the roads – “leaving a restricted area” is now a criminal offense.
  • “Indefinitely suspended” all Jury trials – all criminal proceedings are now bench trials (they tried that in Scotland, too)
  • A 60 minute limit for anyone leaving their home to exercise, and a rule forbidding people from going more than 5km (3.1 miles) from their home.
  • Instituted a mandatory masks for anyone leaving the house for any reason.

Though notionally intended to be “temporary measures” which only lasted six weeks, they have already extended that timeline for a further six months. There is some planned “loosening” of these restrictions, but with such vague and mutable conditions it’s unlikely this “new normal” is going away.

Indeed the “emergency” is so comparatively minor that this precedent means almost any future event can be designated a “disaster” or “emergency”, and used as excuse to impose authoritarian social controls.

The ever quotable Daniel Andrews

The Victorian Premier, Daniel Andrews has been a quote machine during this pandemic. When challenged on the draconian nature of the new rules Andrews said [our emphasis]:

The most logical, the most prudent thing to do, is to simply accept the fact that we have a need for rules … they’re not about individual liberty, they’re about public health.”

When asked about the 74 protesters arrested in Melbourne this past weekend, he said [again..our emphasis]:

It’s not smart, it’s not right…it’s not the time for protest...No one has the right to make choices like that, that potentially puts at risk everything we are working towards.”

Andrews is currently subject to a vote of no confidence from the opposition.

Enthusiastic Police Brutality

The Victorian police have certainly launched into their new mandates with gusto. Raiding the homes of people who share certain facebook posts before arresting them for “incitement” and violently detaining those who weren’t wearing masks in public.

Oh, they are also detaining people at checkpoints for no reason at all, and hitting protesters with their cars putting them in hospital. Some people are being arrested for refusing to identify themselves or “driving on a highway” or “refusing to follow orders”.

The situation in Victoria is terrible, but it’s not much worse than here in the UK, or the US or many other countries around the world. People need to resist it, non compliance and non-conformity have never been more important.

We’re in a grip of a fascism pilot scheme, and the only way to stop it is to see it and say it.

If you or others are subject to any unwanted physical force by any Australian parliament employee in relation to your medical choices anywhere on the island of Australia your right to self defence in these matters has been held for you.

Refuse any charges for any damage or injury or loss of life inflicted upon parliament’s armed forces during their attack.

You are authorised to use any level of force you feel you require against these lethally armed attackers.
In front of court claim you are a civilian defending against an armed and hostile force but have had no time to create a formal militia. Quote them NSW vs George Dickson and demand the matter be treated similarly as a military action instead of a criminal process.

Fascism didn’t arrive with this. It’s been with us for a long time. Journos, alternative ‘and’ corporate media, have not usually described our societies (most of the planet) as ‘fascist’ and people just followed their example. What is fascism? Mussolini is the expert on it and he calls it, simply, the alignment of, and joint rule by, the capitalist class and the political class. They rule jointly, cutting the people out. The people are lied to and told that their fascism is democracy, evidenced by (manipulated) elections and voting. We have had fascism since the goals laid out by the Trilateralists in the late 70s – namely the re-designing of governments that, essentially, took them from the people and put them in the hands of powerful, special capitalist interests – were realized. With the arrival of the American-led Corporatocracy, taking its marching orders from the Transnational Capitalist Class (whose members are mostly American, incidentally), you have global fascism.

Victoria shows us what it means to have fascism. Fasicsts can be quiet for a while, but so what if wolves sleep? They eventually wake up.

Looking at that graph it seems they have designed a test that will give astronomical figures in the winter. They started the charade in the spring so it wouldn’t be too obvious how big the numbers would get if the test was used in mid winter. If it had been used 20 years ago or was used in 20 years time it would still give positive results having no relationship to the actual theory of how these viruses are supposed to die out.

I can’t access this article unless I start a “one-month free trial” (fuck that!) but what I can see looks like written-by-the-numbers:

“Van Morrison’s lockdown protest songs will prove the untapped potential of unwoke listeners

Sooner or later, the Left’s monopoly on anger was going to be broken by something worth getting angry about”

Yes, you can see where they’re going with this. Van’s protest – along with anyone else’s – against the lockdown must be a right-wing protest! Or even worse – an unwoke protest!

There is something that has come rather forcefully to my attention of late:
The people in the media who speak to us, or for us, are often people who are, frankly, not too bright.
They are bright enough to draw obvious conclusions from obvious facts, but not so bright that they can enthusiastically uncover, and draw attention to, uncomfortable truths and facts, which might prevent them from “fitting in” with their colleagues in the workplace…
I have found myself tracing the facial features, the body language and, above all, the life in the eyes of our media airheads – or the lack of it – back to my memories of the same types of people from my infant school days, and it is really rather disquieting to realize that among what passes for “the authorities” today, I regularly see the same faces as those children who were known back then as, “the dull ones”, or “the slow ones”…
These are our politicians, our policemen and even our surgeons-general. They can all talk at great length, and with great fluency, on certain approved, and memorized, topics. They can even excel in this.
But they cannot think.
From what stares them in the face, they cannot draw logical conclusions in such a way as to be able to consider any possible implications for the future.
Most of the information they receive has no perspective or meaning beyond their office walls. It makes no sense to them at all, and they are encouraged by those who hired them to imagine that it is not supposed to make sense – to anyone.
This is why they are so many. This is why they rule.
“Just do it”, says the teacher.
“Just say it, and do it.”
“Don’t think; just say it, and do it.”
We are in the hands of retrograde human beings who need the sort of help they would undoubtedly get – if only they were still in infant school. But the teacher prefers to have them just as they are…

People don’t know what they don’t know. Educate people, inform people, give people different perspectives and they may shift their own perspective towards seeing things differently. Until they choose to see differently they won’t see differently.

You make it sound like these people are somehow challenged but I think that’s a projection on your part. Most people in the media are very intelligent, very successful, highly qualified etc. It’s a difficult job and requires skill at many levels. Many will have had good upbringings and many will have had great educations. The people who bring you OffG all have some form of prior journalistic experience and I believe some even worked for the Guardian itself at one point, hence OffGuardian. Are these people the little challenged children you depict? Be careful where you go with that because it only benefits you to say yes if those people don’t agree with YOUR world view. What happens when those people change their world view to something more similar to yours? Are they needy challenged kids now? Now they are not. That’s convenient.

They simply don’t know what they don’t know. People are conditioned to see the world how they are taught to see it and not everybody has the perception shifts required to see things differently. It has nothing to do with teachers and this infantile fantasy you are depicting of some incapable child that needs to be given extra support because they struggle in the world. They are doing a job because to them that’s what they want to do and because to most of them they believe what they are doing is respectable. They may not know most of the time what they are saying is inaccurate or misleading. Being a news anchor is a respectable job. That’s why we all look to the news as being the source of information because we think we can relate to the person on screen and because most have impressionable personalities that are warm and friendly. Things change when these things are manipulated and exploited to lie to the masses, to push agendas, to scare people, to indoctrinate people etc. Do you think that has anything to do with the people you mentioned?

It doesn’t. You’re looking at this the completely wrong way. The problem is way up at the top where the people who have too much ill gotten influence, power and status can affect the lives of all those below them and usually through having lots of money too, which includes the people you consider to be needy helpless little children ie the majority of the population who simply trust the daily news, read newspapers, regularly use social media and are influenced by mainstream culture like everybody else is.

The difference is simply some people CHOOSE to question their own perspective and whether what they really know and tell others (particularly in the media) is actually true and benefits society by being told as truth. Those that don’t CHOOSE to go about shifting their perspectives are not automatically little kids that need extra support from a teacher/teacher role model.

They simply haven’t reached that state of awareness, yet. Will they? Who knows. We have seen throughout history society flip the switch and go from following one collective belief to another, from supporting one figure in power to rejecting them, from allowing things to happen to then fighting back and demanding change. Are these people children who need mummy and teacher to kiss them more and give them extra cuddles and support? I think you fail to accept difference because to you it could mean some sort of innate vulnerability and insecurity. Difference is everywhere. Difference is good. Difference is freedom, liberation…

When difference causes divides like it does in today’s world with today’s events going on bringing to the collective awareness the truth and demanding change is what needs to happen. But this doesn’t mean the “baddies” are children and we are superior mother/father figures. It means we stand for the freedoms, values and rights of everybody including those who perhaps are not fully aware of what they may have or could be set to lose. And still, for many people if they lost lots of things they may still not be at the stage in their understanding to see what it is they have lost. And the funny thing is, many people go through an entire lifetime unaware of how certain things happen, why, when, how etc. Does it bother them if it never bothered them?

You lost me at “being a news anchor is a respectable job.” Street prostitution is far more respectable. You give news reporters far too much credit. From my experience with them, they are no different than entertainers whose only desires are attention and status. Most of them couldn’t care less one way or another if they’re telling the truth or lies. But I suppose I agree with you that they’re not children. Rather, they are corrupt adults.

“Most people in the media are very intelligent, very successful, highly qualified etc. It’s a difficult job and requires skill at many levels.”

No, the most important requirement is the willingness to repeat what you’re told to the public regardless of its veracity.

“Difference is freedom, liberation.”

Lies and fabrications on behalf of the ruling class are not differences, and they certainly have nothing to do with freedom and liberation.

“That’s why we all look to the news as being the source of information because we think we can relate to the person on screen and because most have impressionable personalities that are warm and friendly.”

You really need to speak for yourself.

Honestly, I think you’re on the wrong website. You sound extremely naive.

I’d go one further. If doctors, who take a hippocratic oath, can cruelly incarcerate old people in hospitals, on the fake premise that they have covid (which shouldn’t matter), where they die utterly alone and in terror, Am I surprised to find that reporters on tv (which is big pharma-funded) just say what they are paid to say and really don’t care? No.

The above ‘cruel doctors’ story was one that was told by Dr Sucharit Bhakdi in his recent discussion with Del Bigtree. (I have issues with The Highwire and Del’s views, but he does perform a valuable public service in reporting on the criminality of big pharma and fighting for health freedom and informed consent.)

“They simply don’t know what they don’t know.” But there’s more to say about that. I am always reminding people that caring means knowing. And limited caring can be dangerous. A mother who cares about the health of her infant and eagerly gets it vaccinated with a Hep B vaccine is putting her child at great risk. (See Del Bigtree on that subject.) A mother who cares fully about her child’s health would look into the substances that doctors want to inject into her child, again and again I might add.

When you care, especially as a parent with children who you want to protect, you then put your head up (figurately and sometimes literally as well) and look around. When you look, then you see. When you see, then you know. You know what dangers might be there and you can protect your loved ones and yourself. And that’s also how we learn. Putting your head up (from your comfy routine and from your smart phones and computers and biases) means ‘active’ as opposed to ‘passive’ learning. Passive learning, if it involves tv, isn’t even learning. TV viewing (news) involves subjecting yourself to State-sanctioned propaganda. State-sanctioned propaganda is Corporatocracy propaganda and governments are merely enforcers for transnational capitalists. All major corporate media is funded by big pharma, which doesn’t give a damn about human health as it seeks to ensure the health of markets for it’s toxic products.

I was, of course, only referring to the halfwits at the BBC, CBC, Huffington Post, Fox News, Washington Post, Guardian, etc.
I am not disputing that journalism is a demanding profession – or at least it should be – but OffGuardian exists because GOOD journalism has been systematically destroyed in all our main media. Good journalists who don’t conform lose their jobs, or are forced to resign.
OffG’s motto, “Because facts really OUGHT to be sacred” says it all, and the media I listed above are now represented by shameless place-holders intead of people who were once encouraged to search for the truth.

I thought I’d have a look in on that Swiss Propaganda Research (now Swiss Policy Research) and googled the name. First link up was this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swiss_Propaganda_Research 

Predictable gatekeeping stuff. But I noticed this:

The site has been widely criticised for spreading conspiracy theories, especially during the times of the COVID-19 pandemic when it has become a source of misinformation and disinformation internationally.[2]

The [2] supplies a link here:

https://www.br.de/nachrichten/deutschland-welt/faktenfuchs-wie-glaubwuerdig-ist-swiss-policy-research,S128XLH

It’s all in German but I ran it through the translator. The extended article generates a suitably impressive air of “scientific objectivity” with references to the “standards of scientific or journalistic work”. But it’s interesting to see the obvious presuppositions. Such as this at the very beginning:

Corona deniers and deprivators often refer to the platform “Swiss Policy Research”, formerly “Swiss Propaganda Research”. It gives itself the appearance of a research group – but it works unscientific and depicts conspiracy myths.

So you see – it starts off with “Corona deniers” i.e. the media presentation of the virus is automatically presupposed as the truth. Also note “conspiracy myths” i.e. use of the universal pejorative “conspiracy” doubly emphasised by linking with “myths”.

Those who refer to SPR get the label “Conspiracy ideologue”. After that, it seizes gleefully on the word “propaganda” in the original title (“This original name said it all: alleged research on “propaganda”.”) And then we get, “Some serious media have already discussed the website”, after which we just get the predictable condemnations from the “serious” media:

“… dubious Internet portal … itself suspected of conducting propaganda… questionable information” etc.

There is a complaint about anonymity – which is fair enough as I have not found actual names myself – although that may be due to fear of harassment. And indeed we later get this:

On the side it says that the “members of the research group want to avoid personal defamation and professional sanctions and have therefore decided not to appear by name”.

I would certainly not go so far as to say that this lack of info is “An absolute exclusion criterion as a serious media source”.

In 2018, the NZZ suspected the conspiracy ideologist Daniele Ganser behind the site, but this recently denied. One of the earliest posts on the site also criticized the alleged defamation of the well-known Swiss conspiracy narrator Daniele Ganser, who publicly questions the results of the investigation into 9/11 in the USA.

“conspiracy ideologist” again as blandly presupposed demonisation. And note the similarly blandly presupposed – and by now embarrassingly antiquated – defense of the official account of 9/11.

SPR also presents a few articles in a media review that deal critically with SPR – but which are then usually provided with the reference to “context” as “NATO-related” or “amateurish”. Many articles come from websites of well-known conspiracy ideologues or self-proclaimed alternative media.

Note the word context in scare quotes. We are supposed to trust NATO. “well-known conspiracy ideologues or self-proclaimed alternative media” obviously just rules those sources out of court without a hearing. 

The alleged “research group” does not conduct its own research on the SARS-CoV-2 virus, as far as can be seen on the Covid-19 page. The authors compile links and information from various sources. The sources linked to (as of June 5) include, on the one hand, serious studies from various countries – on the other hand, self-proclaimed alternative media such as “Rubicon” or “offGuardian”.

Surely conducting its own research is not the aim of SPR. The aim is to assess the various reports produced by others who are taken as being reputable – even by Wiki!

But you will notice that OffG comes in for a bit of bashing there! You should feel proud!

And here is another update from your emotionally manipulative war propagandist unit:

https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/18732205.noel-gallagher-ian-brown-van-morrison-need-change-record-virus-talk/

First, get in good with the fans:

“Musicians, songwriters pop stars, and rock stars are brilliant. Brilliant at playing instruments, at writing songs and at performing and entertaining millions of people with their lyrical and musical talents particularly when the are at the peak of their creativity.”

Now get in with the moral lecture:

“But when it comes to virology, population health control dealing with a global pandemic their talents are not really in tune with what the world needs.”

And “we” are “in tune” with what “the world needs”!

“First, it was Ian Brown, frontman of the legendary Manchester band The Stone Roses. Banging the drum against the Government efforts to save lives and stop the virus killing more people than it already has.”

A bit of self-righteous question begging there.

“Tweeting his opposition to the test and trace and the mandatory wearing of masks and even questioning a vaccine, which we don’t have yet.”

Questioning a vaccine, which we don’t have yet! Oh the cheek!

“He was quickly followed by Oasis singer and guitarist, Noel Gallagher who, in a foul mouthed rant, opined about masks and said they were “pointless” and that he refused to wear one.”

“Foul mouthed”! Well it must be wrong!

“Gallagher said in the interview that if he doesn’t wear a mask and gets the virus then that’s on him. It fails to register with him that if he then has it and doesn’t follow the guidelines he then poses a serious risk to others.”

Thus the inescapable logic of the clampdown. You are risking the health of everyone!

“Now we have Van Morrison, Belfast singer songwriter, writing songs about the lockdown being enslavement. Interventions like this from household names is concerning because, unlike the collections of conspiracy theorists, malcontents and morons who attempt to stage anti lockdown protests in our towns and cities, people like Brown, Gallagher and Morrison do actually have some influence over some people.”

Those loonies were fine, restricted to weird and unofficial quarters of the net but now they may influence “some people” (implication: just a few but not you, dear rational reader.)

“Their words get air time on TV and radio and column inches in the press and on websites.”

Ah now there’s the rub. Not the websites but the TV, radio and press i.e. the “proper” media i.e. the more easily controlled media.

“Thankfully though, their peak influence years are behind them, the 60s and 70s for Van Morrison and the 90s for Ian Brown and Noel Gallagher.”

“Thankfully”, they are all “has beens”!

“But they are still relevant artists, attract attention and some might say their comments are still capable of carrying a great deal of weight. At a time when cases all around the world are rising rapidly again with France and Spain hitting the same kind of numbers they saw earlier in the year leading to a mammoth death toll we need calm voices.”

You have to relish the few moments of unintentional humour! “mammoth death toll we need calm voices.” (!)

Summing up the sheer irresponsibility of these performers:

“They are however coming from a selfish point of view. Van Morrison wants his band back on the road.”

Selfish bastard! Bet he doesn’t care about the inevitable mounting up of corpses during his upcoming gigs!
 
“Well so do the thousands of young, and older musicians who can only dream of the career he has enjoyed and who are faced with no venues to play, no breakthrough opportunities and no huge wealth to cushion the blow.”

Nice divide and rule there!

“Instead of encouraging conspiracy theories and questioning the science I doubt they, just like most of us, have the ability to understand in the minute detail needed to monitor and counter a deadly virus, they could either pen some new songs to help us through, or just shut up and let us enjoy their back catalogue.”

Yes – court jesters! Get back in your place!

“In one of his most successful hits, in the 1990s, when at the peak of his powers, Noel Gallagher wrote the line ‘Please don’t put your life in the hands of a rock n roll band. Who’ll throw it all away’. Twenty five years later, Noel, and never a truer word sung.”

Nice bit of delving to cast up back in his face.

“I wouldn’t want to hear Jason Leitch sing ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’, so why would I listen to Noel Gallagher’s public health advice.”

Ooh swish and slick!

They are worried now, that their abominable agenda which was rather poorly hidden within the covoid19 ‘planned-demic’ Trojan Horse, is being exposed and the otherwise gullible public are being shown the TRUTH about it and more and more of them are finally waking up. Albeit maybe a little too late – an awful lot of damage has already been inflicted on the global economy and millions of lives have been ruined unfortunately.
We, the people are winning this war. and they’re now desperately trying all sorts of deflections and spinning more blatant exaggerations and just straight out lies in a desperate effort to keep the serfs living in fear.
But the serfs are not as dumb as they thought. They went too far with the fake over-inflated and grossly exaggerated statistics, until naturally, people started to question them, as opposed to just blindly accepting and believing them as they did in the beginning.
The deep state oligarchy in the UN / WEF et el, dug their own deep hole with their rampant propaganda, now we can push them into it and bury them and their ‘deadly’ scam-demic with them.
We will never be slaves to these humanity loathing, unelected bureaucrats and greedy ‘philanthropist’ billionaires. They don’t own us and they will never control us. We have truth and honesty in our arsenal, while they only have hysterical propaganda and LIES that eventually get exposed and become totally ineffective. We outnumber them billions to one anyway.

It didn’t take long:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-54194408

“Coronavirus: Van Morrison lockdown protest songs ‘dangerous’
….
Van Morrison song alludes to debunked conspiracy theory

Well that’s a bit risky. “Conspiracy theory” is supposed to indicate a self-refuting matter. To say “debunked” is to indicate that some may not be debunked and may therefore be …choke! … credible?  

In another lyric Van says “Well on the government website from the 21 March 2020 / It said COVID-19 was no longer high risk”.

The article explains:

“It’s a reference to a UK government page that stated “Covid-19 is no longer considered to be a high consequence infectious disease (HCID) in the UK”.

That much is true – but that doesn’t mean that coronavirus is harmless.

So it seems that the new criteria for hyperventilating terror is “not harmless”!

Now see if you pick up the message here:

“Mr Swann said: “I don’t know where he gets his facts. I know where the emotions are on this, but I will say that sort of messaging is dangerous.

“Our messaging is about saving lives.

“If Van wanted to sing a song about saving lives, then that would be more in keeping with where we are at the minute.””

The current scamdemic should be seen as war. And waging war, which is irrational destructiveness, is getting very abstracted relative to the traditional foregrounding of tanks and guns etc. In this evolution can be seen evidence of the displacement of the human – also plain to see in the computer takeover of daily life. It’s very clever how we’ve replaced our perennially in-the-dark, endlessly divisive selves with artificial intelligence. That said, of course, nuclear weaponry could still take us all out, but this evolving abstraction of warfare speaks volumes about how lost we are as to the true capacity to face life. This post is deliberately limited to a discussion of war.

Your original comment is actually excellent. Forgive the foolery, which was triggered by, “It’s very clever how we’ve replaced our perennially in-the-dark, endlessly divisive selves with artificial intelligence” and the implication that “we” did it deliberately…
I have a slight resentment to being included in such generalizations, but it’s no big deal in this context.
My point is that ignorance is really the culprit, and it is hard to apportion blame to people who don’t know any better, although I would definitely be inclined to lay a large chunk of blame at the door of any Minister for Education.

Sep 23, 2020 3:31 PM

I never claimed to be “beyond” generalization.
I only claim that I attempt to avoid it, whereas you appear to assume that I consider myself somehow superior.
Then come assumptions from you about my probably thinking that “knowledge is king”, and that your definition of excellence should be everybody’s.
I know my limitations, but I do try to keep them out of serious discussion. They are based upon my own life experience, which you know nothing about, and your supercilious, sneering tone does nothing to help us get to “excellence” here.
One of the things I try to avoid in particular is the generalization that “we” do this, or “we” do that as a species, although I do sometimes lapse into that out of sheer frustration. The reason I try to avoid it is because it overlooks the individual human, and that leaves us with only the crowd to consider – precisely that crowd which our manipulators are finding it so easy to control these days.
The truth is that some of us do this, or that, and others do not. What individuals do, or do not do, is what is important.
Hitler was not “Germany”, nor was Gandhi “India”.
Conversely, the brainwashed British public are not “The UK”, nor are they Boris Johnson.
My definition of “excellence” here would be those commenters who look for solutions in what we, as individuals, can do. The mob can do nothing of value, and I would not be ashamed to say that I hope to have evolved “beyond” the mob stage of human existence.
I don’t wish to attach undue emphasis to what you said about “we”, since your comment was not trying to make that particular point. But I have tried to explain my initial reaction to it.
You seem to think I need to be taught a lesson for my impertinence… while I reject your impertinence in implying that. So we seem to have arrived at an “ad hominem” impasse. No worries. Sometimes it can’t be helped.

As an American, I can say we are not the pinnacle of power, America is run by the same Zionist Communists that run the rest of you. Trump is a Zionist globalist with deep ties to the Russian mafia. America is being set up for a fake civil war. Australia seems like a testing ground for the Zionist to see how far they can take all this. 9/11 was CIA and Mossad, not Osama, and they have used they false flag to destroy America. Because many Americans bought into the lie of 9/11, these evil powers were allowed to move forward with their plans. America is the ultimate prize here..after the obligatory “election” which Trump will be handed (America’s voting machine and the software they run on is made in Israel). the Zionist’s media and politicians will move to make it appear their is a constitutional crisis, riots and mayhem. Trump will use this totally contrived threat (just like corona) to declare Marshall Law, and suspend our Constitution, being in the military into the cities…All preparing us for the “GREAT RESET” which will cause GREAT SUFFERING. That is what this is all about, getting the systems in place to deal with the reset. After the “reset”, democracy is gone and Chinese style corporate/government control will be in place.

And if the billionaire you have in mind is Trump, I couldn’t agree more. He claims he withdrew funding to the WHO, but redirected many millions more to a Bill & Melinda Gates funded pharmaceutical company (GAVI) instead. Whilst the BMLGF is the largest sponsor of socialist controlled WHO. Talk about conflict of interest.
Oh one more thing: I’m an Australian and I don’t vote for any of them, let alone every 4 years (even though voting in Australia is mandatory, so if you don’t vote you get fined). What I do and many others do is just turn up to the polling station on election days and get my name crossed off the list so I’ve officially cast my vote, but don’t mark anything on the ballot paper. Just fold up the blank paper and drop it in a ballot box. If I was an American citizen I would do the same. They’re all liars and don’t represent us, or care a damn.

Yes, it does, however my reason for not voting is on principle, it’s like giving the whole political class the middle finger salute. None of them can be trusted or believed. Lying is what they do best. ALL of them.
Since this Covid19 scandal started, all parties have demonstrated their true colours – that they are all subservient to the socialist UN and other foreign deep state NGOs, NOT to their own citizens who foolishly trusted them and voted for them.
They’re all tarred with the same deep state’s brush. Not worth voting for.
Apart from that, the elections are always rigged anyway, so your vote often doesn’t count. Why bother.

I could use the same argument to try and convince you why anyone should not vote. I.e. any vote is wasted. We vote for the candidates based upon what we believe they can do for us, but whatever they promise always ends in disappointment. So why trust them and why vote?
Years ago when I used to participate, in this pseudo-democracy I often ended up kicking myself for not voting the ‘opposition’ because the policies I believed would be enacted by the candidates I’d voted for were usually false promises – lies. Merely juicy carrots they’d dangled in front of us to convince us to vote for them, nothing more.
A fairly recent classic example of this despicable lying, was in 2010 when Labor’s Julia Gillard promised Australians she would never introduce a ‘carbon tax’. (I never voted for anyone of course), but a large portion of the Federal electorate naively believed her words. That blatant LIE won her the Prime Ministership. So, no sooner had she been sworn in, she almost immediately introduced an industry crippling carbon tax which resulted in the company I’d worked with for many years, having to shut down and dismiss its entire workforce.
Labor was traditionally a party which boasted its loyalty to the working class people – the majority of ordinary Australians. Now they’re more proactively oppressing them. Just pro-socialist deluded greenie zealots now.
Many similarly affected industries around Australia also fell prey to her destructive green taxes and policies, with many careers and families ruined.
The MSM never report on that side of these true stories, much like at present with their conspicuous, almost total silence about the ruined economies and societal devastation the WHO / UN’s covid-19 scam-demic, Agenda 2030 Trojan Horse has caused thus far.
That job I lost was the best one I’d held over my entire career. It was devastating, it also resulted in destroying my marriage, which I’m still paying for to this day.
Please don’t misunderstand me Kiwijoker. I don’t totally disagree with you – I understand your argument and it’s valid.
But this is my perspective: Whomever you vote for, will let you down one way or other, that’s guaranteed, so your vote is wasted. It’s one of those ‘endless loop’ type arguments which cannot be won or lost really. We’re both right, but both wrong – ‘damned if you do, damned if you don’t’.
The bottom line for me, based on many years of experience (I’m 62 yrs old, been working full time since I was 16), is any vote is wasted these days, simply because no-one can trust any of them, so whether you vote or not, they will not serve us as they should, so I don’t give them my vote (my trust). ‘Democracy’ is a bad joke, so I gave up on it long ago.

Thanks Kiwijoker,
I would champion a revamped or revised version of the current representative democracy system.
Basically, there is nothing wrong with it as
a ‘blueprint’ for governmental structure, if only the rules were more strictly observed and obeyed by the people who entrusted them and elected them into power, based on their faith in them to serve them honestly and fairly.
The LYING and rampant corruption has to stop, or it will only get worse, Any lying or failure to serve the electorate honestly and fairly without reasonable justification, should be exposed and dealt with by severe penalties.
This covid19 scam for example, is based on 95% lies and the rest fudged data and exaggeration and as a result they have ruined our economy and millions of lives. The whole narrative and in particular the absurd, over-the-top response to it is nothing less than treason. They are subservient to a foreign oligarchy instead of those who elected them.
What we’re living under now is hardly democracy! It is tyranny.
Nobody voted for that, yet they accept it! It’s not only the system which needs to be revised and made tougher: the people themselves also need to be re-educated on their civil rights and reminded that they do not have to tolerate any of what’s been going on over the past 3, 4 or 5 decades.
We, the people do have the right to hold them to account, but most have been so intimidated (so indoctrinated) by the rampant fear mongering and falsehoods being continuously propagated by the MSM (which the lying and corrupt governments also manipulate and control – tell them what they must and must not tell the public), they have lost direction. They feel they must ‘do as they are told’, simply because they are afraid to speak up.
That’s why we’re now seeing these armies of compliant masked zombies in many cities and towns, all willingly surrendering their freedom and basic rights, in exchange for their servitude to tyranny.
They feel enslaved because they allowed themselves to be, by not even questioning what the hell’s going on, let alone offering any kind of objection or dissent.
They don’t have to ‘obey’. They can and should RESIST and resist NOW, before it’s too late. The people of Australia elect the government under the current system of representative democracy, but the concept of democracy has long been buried under deep pile of corruption. It desperately needs to be exhumed and cleaned up.

Ok if its not socialist, what is it then? It sure as heck isn’t ‘democracy’. There are only minor differences between ‘socialism’, ‘fascism’, ‘Marxism’, ‘communism’. All of them share the same totalitarian / authoritarian system of control and enslavement of the population, under a despotically governed society, where people have no freedom or civil rights; rather like what people are being subjected to right now in most countries, with this covid-19 hidden agenda.
I used the term socialist, but I could just as easily used ‘fascist’, ‘communist’ or ‘Marxist’. Next time I’ll just say ‘totalitarian’ or maybe ‘draconian’, to satisfy those who are concerned with detail.
It’s interesting the number of comments I’ve read on numerous blogs and forums, where so many commentators pedantically argue the differences between socialism / communism etc., but none of their arguments ever really debunk anyone else’s. They are are all technically correct, so what difference does it make which term someone chooses to describe what they are obviously referring to.
ALL of those systems are highly undesirable to people who value their freedom and I believe that would be most humans, including misinformed and deluded lefty ‘progressives’.

This is frightening. And all for what? Talking to friend who works in Aged Care, she says the elderly say unlock the country, bring it on, we’ve had a good life. But it is their children, the middle aged and younger people who are in no danger who are fighting to stay locked up. And I blame the media, the fear factor. Strange how the BLM protests were sanctioned and no reports of the virus spreading….

Simon, I just went back on that story a short time ago. It now has over 6.4K comments.
I’ve gone through tons of the comments – and, yes, true, there are anti lockdown comments and people opposed to what Andrews is doing, but the clear majority are fully supporting Daniel Andrews and the draconian measures happening here.
And, yes, I’ve seen heaps and heaps of comments calling for people to be arrested. And, yes, I’ve checked quite a few profiles of the people making these comments, and they seem legit accounts.
There is a huge amount of Stockholm Syndrome happening here. That’s a fact that other Australian commenters at Offguardian can easily verify to you.
Have a good day.

When reason is devoid from reality, question reality. Just because there are many fascist comments does not mean that is how your neighbor feels, have faith in humanity. We ARE AT WAR, and their goal is to make us feel alone in our fight for freedoms. They control the internet and the media, politics and most major corporations, but they don’t own our minds unless we let them. I would bet most of those “thousands of comments” are fake, sock puppets…we saw the EXACT same thing with “Muslim terroism”, where after each terrorist attack, the sock puppets would swarm the internet pushing hate against Muslims…

People seem to be relaxing about this! I you people don’t understand the gravity!… etc…The second wave IS coming, and it’s going to be a bitch.

Hi Arby… we’re in the deep poop I think. Since they bought in mandatory facemasks here in Melbourne, I haven’t seen one single person Not wearing one when I’ve gone to the nearby shopping centres. I see people running past my Flat…. wearing a facemask. I see lots of people drive past sitting alone in their car…. wearing a facemask.
When I’ve gone for walks in the literally deserted streets around my Flat, then see one person in sight…. wearing a mask, it’s like being in a zombie movie.
The brainwashing here is so successful, the Govt could tell people to jump off a cliff and a lot would do so without even blinking.
And as I’ve said before, what is driving this almost total compliance is people’s fear of their own mortality.
And a disconnection with themselves, and a disconnection with Nature and with a spiritual sustenance.
And the media have really played on this. They have milked peoples fear for everything they’ve got.

The only thing that can be done is to use examples from governments and the World Economic Forum of what’s in store for everyone: Covid-Pass, Operation Moonshot etc.. None of that is conspiracy.

Do those who are screaming for tighter lockdown want a future whereby they must have a vaccine status app to go to a café or to ride a bus? And what will they do if they become injured from the vaccines and compensation schemes have been removed?

They need to pick a side.

If they become injured from the rushed vaccines, then I will have no sympathy for them when they’ve helped to impose them on everyone else.

Incidentally, I saw on Simon Dolan’s Twitter feed that the volunteer who became ill from the vaccine trials in Oxford has lost the use of their hands and feet.

But more so, that supposed ordinary people are demanding those who protest against the lockdowns be jailed or sent to Christmas Island!!
Most here just cannot see where this is going. That scares me. And I would bet money that a majority in Melbourne would support the amendments to the Omnibus Bill. Its absolutely surreal.

Be very careful when reading anonymous comments on any site, they are just as likely to be paid trolls than real people. We live in a world where a regular flu can be turned into an “extinction event”. They can create any narrative out of this air. One of the ways they do it is with anonymity, “sock puppet” technology, where one person an have unlimited accounts. They know dam well people often gain much of their opinions from the comment sections, so they often flood those sections with comments making people think “THIS IS HOW PEOPLE ACTUALLY FEEL”, it is most often a LIE. This IS about controlling the masses, the key is to move past weapons like Facebook and get back to face to face contact, neighbors, clerks, family, friends…

And all those hurling abuse at ‘virus deniers’ or ‘tin foil hat nuts’ would have done no research themselves. They get their “research” from the filth media.
To illustrate that, came across several comments on Channel 7 news Facebook, where they were praising Andrews, and saying we had to keep restrictions in place Until We Get Rid Of The Virus…. Can you believe that?

Some I talk to dont want to hear about anything, some dont want to take any action even if they dont believe it, some believe CV19 so much they shout it from the roof tops.

The question is, Why? Power? Warped sense of heroism? I, Dan Andrews, saved the people from certain death and then I rebuilt the State of Victoria. Where is my medal. What I find truly disgusting is that the truth, which should be told by the Public Health officials, is nowhere to be heard. So unless people go looking, they will only know what they are told. And if they go looking and find a different narrative, they might be abused and ridiculed as being conspiracy theorists, or callous selfish murderers. My biggest fear is that come next year’s inevitable cold/flu season, this will all be repeated and we will be forcibly vaccinated like a bunch of cattle, and fined if we don’t wear masks, even though we never have before.

Dear Gezzah, thanks for your posts. Being from a small country in Europe with about 5 % of the suppression you endure I read regularly with great shock and worry about the development especially in Australia. Many questions: Is there a chance to escape/’go dark’ for Australians/Victorians? Are there already refugees trying to get out of Victoria and Australia (as in Hong Kong)? Are there already resistance fighters as in wars? What is the reason for Victorians voting so heavily for the left/greens (8 years in power I believe) despite, as I read, scandals with your premiere and other issues? And the premiere and left/green parties responsible for your now fascist state in fact gaining seats over this long period….. Is this ruling class now being seen as traitors to the people? I mean the lies of the plandemic are so transparent and obvious. Why are Australians I always believed to be laid back but strong willed in such a situation? Of course I read about the Chinese influence and the many billions of dollars they are pouring into Australia every year for I believe longer than a decade (and especially in Victoria) and buying up key infrastructure, land and companies, but this and the link to politics is so transparent that I have a hard time accepting that just no one sees behind all this… Do you believe anything will change in the future? Will there ever be a vote again and will this ruling class win again? What is the percentage of the people in Victoria not only suffering but opposing this suppression (and their obviously planned change for a technocratic/(fake)leftist/(fake)environmental fascism)?

Thanks Matteo, appreciate your words. Where do I start? I know of 2 people who got out. They’re now in Mexico.
Others can leave if they have bought a property interstate, but for the rest?
I have no money to move anywhere (for now) even if I could. A lot of people are trapped here because of lack of money.
Melbourne is ringed by checkpoints on 17 outbound roads. All vehicles are stopped and the occupants asked where they’re going. It’s a $4957 fine if you try and leave without a permitted reason. Police are on regional trains and checking where passengers are going. Its like East Germany before the Berlin Wall came down.
There have been some protests here, but relatively small. Those who oppose this agenda are definitely a small minority in Melbourne. As I said to someone the other day, there needs to be minimum 50000 in the streets. I just cannot see that happening.
I know we here can see through the lies of the plandemic, people all around the world can see through the lies of the plandemic – but here in Victoria, no. They actually believe there is a raging pandemic and their lives are in danger if they don’t comply with all Govt directives. You have no idea how surreal and depressing it is. Grown adults who won’t do any research and believe what the MSM says.
I don’t regard the Labor Party or the Greens as Left or progressive. They are beholden to Neoliberalism and keeping the capitalist system intact. And bear in mind that the large majority here support this fascism, tho they don’t even recognise it as such. They think its about ‘keeping them safe’.
Personally, I believe its more the World Economic Forum behind this agenda along with Big Pharma, the Rockefellers, Bilderberg Group and the Deep State.
The agenda is much more pronounced in the Five Eyes countries.
I think the main reason Victorians have voted for Labor for so long is that the opposition Liberal Party have been completely ineffectual and there is the legacy of a former Liberal Party Premier, Jeff Kennett who went on a blitzkrieg of Neoliberal reforms that caused a great deal of hardship and pain.
Unless a lot more people wake up, I don’t this being reversed. I have much more hope for other parts of the world than I do for Victoria.

What I see happening now in Europe seems to confirm what I wrote a couple of months ago, also on AHT:
https://ahtribune.com/world/asia-pacific/australia/4290-lock-down-trap.html

Because the result of lock-downs and attempts to eliminate the virus or control it with social engineering inevitably fail because the population remains as exposed as ever to infection – as happened with Victoria’s “second wave” – whether with a little help from big brother or not.
The only way out of this trap is via a vaccine, but as we wait for that, other restrictive measures become entrenched. Even if we are not imprisoned within Australia and can go on carefully monitored “Staycations” to approved destinations with “nominated” other persons, we have to do so with an electronic tag. Yesterday it was suggested in the AGE that this summer people should only go to the beach at low tide, as there would be more space for them to keep apart! But they must wear masks on the beach, where the Ozone, UV and Chlorine levels wouldn’t allow a virus particle to exist long enough to pass from one symptomless person to their partner!

But it needs no policing, because the people will do it for them. Last week I asked my doctor if it was OK to not wear a mask on the basis of “mental health” – I fear that my anger at having to do so will boil over and I’ll do something stupid that may endanger the public, like stripping off in the high street. He said I wouldn’t be fined, but I might get beaten up by some find upstanding citizen who keeps to the rules.

Thanks for your replies, and thanks for the link to your article; excellent by the way. Its like being in some surreal Kafkaesque nightmare.
The biggest shock for me, and for most of us here at Offguardian is how easily and willingly the very large majority fell into full lockstep compliance with all the directives issued by Andrews and Sutton. Its like being trapped on the set of A Clockwork Orange, and there are days I’m really struggling mentally.
And you’re right, ‘normal citizens’ have turned on anyone deemed a ‘conspiracy theorist’ or ‘tin foil hatter’ with vitriol and buckets of abuse. I’ve seen many comments demanding protesters be jailed. Yes, jailed.
Or even sent to Christmas Island as one former Xavier College student demanded.
Yet none of them – not one mentions the devastating impact the lockdowns and draconian measures have had on many many people. Suicides are soaring, despite the filth media trying to cover this up. On social media, people are hearing these stories all the time as are MPs and Doctors. One funeral home alone had 9 suicides last week.
I hate going out – I wear a facemask to get into shops and I hate it. I stomp round the supermarket in seething anger. Virtually everywhere you now can’t enter without a mask on. Soon, you won’t be able to enter places without a health immunity passport.
Once my Medicare card arrives (long story) I’ll be getting a medical exemption on the grounds of mental health. And no, it won’t stop the pandemic believers launching into verbal abuse, or the risk being arrested by the cops who have no issue arresting people with a medical exemption. Or even people standing in their driveway. Or standing on the front lawn of a neighbours property. Or pregnant women in front of her small children.

On the same wavelength here Gezzah – and see my other comment below describing similar mask wearing symptoms. I’ve never felt this sort of anger before, and fear I might get into an argument with some member of the public. My whole focus now is on trying to stir people up into admitting they don’t like masks, and pointing out they don’t work, and that we don’t need them here. As the weather warms up I’m going to find the Palestinian scarf I wear as a mask gets too warm…

Heavens no! This is the situation however, even for those of us who reject it, as we are forbidden to leave or enter the country, and many people are now just getting used to the idea of staying imprisoned in their island until medical science saves them. However, I’d have no objection to the Russian vaccine, which is based on a tested method and appears safe and effective. In the absence of any virus in the community, the chance to become infected and immune is virtually zero – though I’d certainly prefer it. The “lock-down trap” is well illustrated by the second waves now happening in countries that have avoided allowing much immunity to develop – though of course it’s not actually a lethal wave like the first.

You seem to have swallowed the covid Kool-Aid. James Corbett, and others, talked about the second wave months ago and what he said was logical and has proven to be true. The second wave talk is baked into the hoax. There’s no virus. They don’t know what Sars-CoV-2 or 1 is because they pulled it out of junk with all kinds of material in it, as Andrew Kaufman patiently explains in his video titled “The Rooster In The River Of Rats.” They didn’t isolate a ‘virus’. There is no covid 19. There’s just sickness, from all sorts of things, as Jon Rappoport said.

Just for the record, I have little use for AHT since they disappeared comments by myself and another blogger who was responding to them. I never use foul language because I hate it. I am no topic. I’m not a flamer. I’m real. I have definite views and don’t mind sharing them, but what you see is what you get. I’m not sure that can be said for AHT.

Protests, yeah, there were 2 million people in London’s streets to protest against the Iraq invasion. What did that achieve? I am in a comparable small town where large numbers cannot be had. I also tend to think that loosening US American influence on Australia is more important and once that is done, we might get some of the rights back easier, because a smaller danger is easier to tackle than a larger one.

If reducing human contacts is the safest way to reduce infections (which often have long term debilitating effects) then that should be done and unrest in the streets is counterproductive in every sense.

You perhaps don’t understand how the world is structured. The Transnational Capitalist Class rules. The 17 financial giants (managing the trillions of dollars of the superclass’s members) directs the US which in turns dominates the world. The covid 19 pandemic hoax has revealed clearly that governments are not sovereign and independent. As Andrew Kaufman pointed out, if they were, you would have seem more variation in their responses to the declaration of a pandemic (including, possibly, some States asserting that there is no pandemic). But you didn’t see that. Peter Phillips states it clearly in his recently published book “Giants.” Governments take their marching orders from the TCC. Governments are the enforcers of the TCC. That was the plan from the late 70s.

As an American, I can say we are not the pinnacle of power, America is run by the same Zionist Communists that run the rest of you. Trump is a Zionist globalist with deep ties to the Russian mafia. America is being set up for a fake civil war. Australia seems like a testing ground for the Zionist to see how far they can take all this. 9/11 was CIA and Mossad, not Osama, and they have used they false flag to destroy America. Because many Americans bought into the lie of 9/11, these evil powers were allowed to move forward with their plans. America is the ultimate prize here..after the obligatory “election” which Trump will be handed (America’s voting machine and the software they run on is made in Israel). the Zionist’s media and politicians will move to make it appear their is a constitutional crisis, riots and mayhem. Trump will use this totally contrived threat (just like corona) to declare Marshall Law, and suspend our Constitution, being in the military into the cities…All preparing us for the “GREAT RESET” which will cause GREAT SUFFERING.

“American history” is nothing but a string of lies told one after another. You think Lincoln was a great man, the man who destroyed the whole concept of states rights, and turned America into an empire. You think America was fighting the real threat in WW2, as George Patton said, “we are fighting the wrong enemy”. Patton knew Russia was the real threat…The same people that made Russia made Israel, and used Israel as a back door into the west. Pearl Harbor, to 9/11 and everything in between was in some fashion all part of the plan…Kissinger “opened up trade to China”, BS, it was all about destroying manufacturing in America, same with NAFTA. Time and time again, the media, Hollywood, higher education, politicians have told us of the wonder of globalism, but it has only lead to one thing, global tyranny, the likes of which we are seeing manifest right now.

Palestine, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq…all these nations and many more, have paid for America’s “close freindship” with Israel…now we will see what all our indifference to evil brings us, now we will be Gaza. Why does Israel spy on America more than anyone else, and why do the secretes they steal keep ending up in Russia and China? Israel has been spying on NASA for decades, Trump’s answer, force NASA to “work more closely with Israel”. Trump is up to his neck in Communist mafia oligarchs, a facts the media ignores, instead focusing on more salacious nonsensical allegations that go nowhere. Humanity has been on this trajectory for centuries, but who truly knows where it will bring us.

You need to learn to form an argument, not relay on media created biases against theories not of their making.

I don’t write for hasbara trolls, I write for the humanity, who know the truth, but need it put to words. While the corrupted Zionist American government can’t help so many small businesses suffering from the effects of the government’s war on them, but that same corrupt government can fund a record multi-billion dollar “aid” package for Israel, who does not need it and is financially FAR FAR better off than Ameirca. As Nancy Pelosi says, Washington could be burning in ruin and they would still be supporting aid for Israel…try to make an argument, it will be DOA, and you know it.

Exactly, we are seeing the world as it truly is for the first time. For decades the west has allowed its killer military to ravage the Middle East all for our Zionist masters, and we did nothing. But what the west did not know was We were the targets, those wars sapped us of our treasure, our morals and our justice. Not to mention they drove immigration to our shores…I received a ad from the ACLU the other day, calling out the “injustice of voter suppression”. Where was the ACLU on these “lock-down” or the masks, not a peep. We have allowed our society to be ruled by Zionist criminals who are hell bent on destroying the Christian west. Organization after organization have shown themselves to be nothing but paper tigers, there not to protect OUR rights, but just place holders, making us think we have tool to insure our freedoms, when in reality we have been under the Zionist control for decades if not centuries.

Hi Gezzah, and I’m sorry you didn’t get to see the article OffGuardian might have published a couple of weeks back on this subject – unless you look at AHT:

https://ahtribune.com/world/4382-end-of-a-decade.html

It is about the situation in Victoria, as described above by this anonymous source. You might also see the articles written by friend Jeremy Salt, who fell out with the Melbourne Age decades ago for wanting him to write differently about Palestine.

I did get a letter published in my local paper, perhaps because there are a lot of angry people in Wodonga where the NSW restrictions and Stage 3 for Victorians have made our situation much like Melbourne’s. Sadly there are no protest rallies here, so insufficient solidarity to risk a ‘safety in numbers’. I had hoped that there would be tens of thousands turning up in Melbourne and outnumbering police completely. As you say, where the F**K are the human rights people? ( I did hear something from Tim Wilton the other day, briefly)
Here’s my letter:

“ Why should we be thankful for small mercies, as NSW and Victorian leaders finally agree to relax the crippling restrictions on border crossings months after the damage has been done? Now is not the time for celebration, as it becomes all too obvious that the whole farcical and punitive circus of permits and fines, discussions and desperate pleas was for nothing. While some might argue otherwise, it seems likely that the health outcome in our region would have been no different had the border never been closed, with zero cases of Coronavirus infection in the wider community that might have been prevented from crossing into New South Wales.
Not only must we now cope with the backlog of hospital treatments needlessly cancelled, and the mortality from those delays, but we are expected to recover under the oppressive and socially destructive rules of masking and “social distancing” – a treatment initially devised by the CIA to soften up detainees for interrogation.
 All the signs from Europe are that the virus is now weakening and becoming far less lethal, and with some populations likely to soon develop “herd immunity”. Thanks to the misguided policies of our governments and their social engineering-minded advisors, escape from our “COVID normal” prison to join that herd now looks impossible.”

Most of our friends are happy to muzzle their faces and don’t have voices that need muzzling because they have believed the FEAR campaign. Some even think they may catch it from the mail, or just the air, even though there haven’t been ANY cases EVER in this area! and they can’t be reassured that it won’t harm them – (probably!)

More and more I think we really are the Building 7 of the COVID wars.

Exactly, yet our brand new army of compliant masked (and physically distancing) zombies, i.e. the vast majority of our mainstream media indoctrinated, sleepwalking fellow citizens, gleefully acquiesce to these bizarre, dehumanizing edicts. Yet are so hopelessly ignorant and deluded, they feel ‘righteous’ when they ridicule us as ‘covid deniers’ or ‘conspiracy theorists’ for committing the heinous thought crime of not wanting our freedoms taken away and our civil rights trampled into the ground by an oligarchy of UN based, unelected bureaucrats, phoney ‘philanthropist’ billionaires and globalist tyrants; who are determined to destroy our great civilization and way of life forever; using this coronavirus ruse and its mainstream media propagated terror campaign as their demolition ball.
It’s not so much the (mainly overseas based) deep state oligarchy we need to fear, but our fellow citizens – the collaborators who enable them and their evil, anti-humanity agenda to proceed almost totally unchallenged.
It will take a miracle, such as Divine intervention to save us now. It has already progressed much too far.
If there is anything even vaguely positive that might ever result from this abominable, socialist / Marxist takeover of our society, it might be that we’ll be able to say to the sobbing & sorry (no longer masked) zombies, something like, ‘Well, we did try to warn you all, but instead of listening to what we had to say, you preferred to ridicule us as deniers or covidiots etc’.

Thanks Anthony, and agree with everything but for one – that this is a socialist/Marxist takeover of our society. Although the Left here could barely be called socialist, nor the Greens, the Federal government set the scene for this totalitarianism and economic plunder early on. They are anti-communist and anti-socialist to an extreme degree, currently prepared to sabotage our relationship with China on which we totally depend, in favour of the US/Israel, their pharmaceuticals, military and tech industries interests. We are bombarded with anti Chinese disinformation, on how they are infiltrating us. I even wonder whether the Feds set up the Vic government to shoot itself in the knees because Victoria is the most Chinese friendly state, and the only one to sign onto the BRI.
But Fascism and Communism seemed to never be far apart.

 GET OVER IT!

I’m not being xenophobic or warmongering, but the Australian state of Victoria sounds like Wuhan, however, it also strangely resembles the way the US dealt with American Muslims after 9/11.  So in effect, the Australian Government is treating their citizenry as if they’re terrorists.  Is the Australian government purposely trying to emulate China/US.  They say emulation is the highest form of compliment, however, copying totalitarian methods to isolate a virus which DOESN’T affect 95% of the population demonstrates this authoritarianism is more about social control and has little to do with infectious disease.  

Here’s something particularly scary, the government’s proposed detention would last “for a period reasonably necessary to eliminate or reduce a serious risk to public health.” This sounds like the US rendition program. The government snatches citizens off the street and can indefinitely detain them. As a side note, there’s probably 55 prisoners still held captive in Guantanamo Bay–the Afghan war started in 2001. 

And how about police checkpoints on roads “leaving restricted areas.” That sounds pretty creepy–checkpoints are used throughout Palestine to control and psychologically subjugate the population who are living in little more than an “open air prison.”

What do you think of this–a 60 minute limit for anyone leaving their house to exercise, and a rule forbidding people from going more than 3.1 miles from their home. How does the police control each person’s workout. What happens if you take a ninety minute walk– are you sentenced to the firing squad.  

The Victorian Premier, Daniel Andrews says: “Simply accept the fact that we have a need for rules … they’re not about individual liberty, they’re about public health.”  There you have it–it’s not about INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY it’s about health.  So it’s been determined by bureaucrats your individual liberty is a mere bourgeois obsession…….get over it.

The first step in understanding where you’re at is not to compare yourselves with some imaginary ‘other’. The Chinese took steps to enforce quarantine appropriate for Chinese society; it wasn’t something that I’d like to participate in but then I’m not Chinese. Also, the American state didn’t “deal” with Muslims after 9/11; certainly where I lived life went on pretty much as normal except for there being no air traffic. The Muslims I know were just like the rest of us — this was a barbaric act and it really had nothing to do with Islam (and we’ve still not come to terms with the fact it had a lot to do with Saudi Arabia and the rather perverted form of Islam they peddle — but then they’re our ‘allies’, aren’t they?).

Our response to the Coronavirus — this is in California — has been to seek cooperation between the health authorities and the population. I don’t know where the Victorians are coming from but the idea that you can enforce health ruiles by flooding the place with police is ridiculous. We have obviously our conspiracy theorists and ‘defenders of freedom no matter what’ but they are just a vociferous minority. It would be convenient to shut these people up but we’re not prepared to trash our freedoms for it (we just sit back and watch them fall ill – not everyone gets it badly but those that do certainly remember the experience).

As far as “what do I think about….” all I can say is that it looks like there are a fair number of Victorian politicians that are headed for premature retirement. I for one would never vote for anyone who unleashed this on me, no matter how laudable their motive. This kind of power tends to be addicitive for politician and police alike and as we all know, power once granted is seldom given up voluntarily (we’re still dealing with the fallout from the so-called “Patriot Act”).

There’s numerous links to other sites with info about how the FBI spied on Mosques and literally anyone they thought was dangerous.

The spooks even invaded public libraries threatened staff with security letters if they did not submit lists citing books people were reading or websites they were exploring.

The Patriot Act suddenly emerged because of 9/11 a document that was probably prepared way in advance.

As far as China is concerned, I can’t imagine anyone wanting to be locked in their homes for even a short time. If that’s socialism with Chinese characteristics– it’s not for me.

The FBI routinely do this to anyone — if it wasn’t Muslims post-9/11 it was civil rights leaders in the 60s, socialists anytime. Its what they do. Don’t confuse official pronouncements with on-the-ground reality — maybe its wishful thinking on my part or just the bubble I live in but the majority of the people I interacted with regarded this as BS.

There is an echo of this today. Our government makes some pronuncement about — say — a Chinese application being a security risk. This is picked up by the media and after a few OpEd pieces and related news stories its repeated as fact. For those predisposed to believe China is evil this just confirms what they already know. The factual basis gets lost in the wash. Needless to say, the opportunities for manipulation of public sentiment are legion — rather than reacting to events we end up being led around by people who shape events to suit their agenda. The same could be said about Covid except, unfortuantely, it is a real virus that has caused real problems (which we can only prove to many by letting it run wild and do as much damage as it wants).

(While we’re mentioning 9/11 does anyone have a satisfactory explanation for the ‘anthrax in the mail’ problem we experienced soon afterwards?)

The Social Credit system is just an extension of the credit score system widely used in the US (and now the UK). In a sense Social Credit is more open since the credit score is derived from a private algorithm that neither discloses what data it uses or how that data is hashed into the overall score while social credit is derived from ostensibly puiblic information. The result is similar — a poor credit score affects your ability to get a job and rent a place to live, not just your ability to get credit at a reasonable price.

To say that this sort of thing is undesirable is an understatement but can you think of an alternative?

I’m being an advocate, I was merely remarking that ‘rule by algorithm’ is the rule no matter where one lives. Its not a new thing, its been brewing up for decades in one form or another. so just saying “Its a Chinese thing” and “It can’t happen here” is missing the point. It has happened here so now the question is how we as a society live with it and control it.

There are a lot of technologies out there in development that can be used to monitor and control people. The Chinese tend to be open about them which is a good thing for us because we can get a heads up about what’s coming to a society near you (our governments are unlikely to forego technologies that enhance their power, they’re just going to (maybe) be a bit more subtle about how they go about it. We as a society need to know what we’re in for so we can advocate at least a measure of control over it (hopefully something a little bit more open and transparent than a FISA!).

He is looking fine but obviously a bit hungry and thin.

My wife (his mum) has fed him as best she could in 10 minutes but he is dying to see his wife and kids.

I can understand that.

I asked him has he seen The Fraud Squad yet. He wa ready to go and meet them Yesterday.

He said The Top IT guy wasn’t available, and they cancelled the meeting – possibly Next week if he hasn’t got COVID.

Mum and Dad (me) were completely Delighted to see him.

We have survived very stormy seas, very recently in his Sailing Boat,,,

and we want to do it Again.

But Beaucracy First, if The City of London Police can get their act together, and keep THEIR Appontment.

My Son and his Business has Nothing to Hide.

He is the Most Honest person I know.

He is Not Political.

He is just a Plumber, who supplies Extremely Fast Bandwith in Data Centres,some in The City of London.

His customers from all over the world have to pay for the services he provides, or he can’t pay his bills.

The UK has got The Biggest Fastest Pipe in The World.

My son has got people watching almost live TV, in some of the most obscure places in the world.

It’s mainly kids stuff, in languages that neither he nor I can understand – a bit like Facebook for under 10’s in hungrawli

Mum and Dad us Grandparents are so Proud of Him.

He hasn’t done anything wrong and he is not doing anyone over.

I have never known such an honest person.

He doesn’t take no shit though if you try and steal his stuff.

Glad he is back.

It’s called “sarcasm”.
Not supposed to be taken literally, but to make the point that we sit there placidly allowing fools to make up all sorts of “rules” for us to live by, when it is we who should be insisting on rational behaviour from our “authorities”.
“A stitch in time saves nine” may have some truth in it, but a stitch in time might also save 143, or only 4…
Let’s not get bogged down in trivia, when what I meant is really clear enough.
Bill Gates is the target of my sarcasm, not a colleague.

The vital thing is self determination: to resist, refuse to comply and most importantly to spread the word. There are billions of citizens, a few hundred elite driving this “brave new world”, and thousands of governments and politicians who have already been “bought” by the multi-billionaires. We can, and we must beat them and subsequently hold them to account.

The goal that an individual should strive for, in my view, is to survive spiritually. That’s if you want to live in a normal world, which is around the corner. This world is sort of making me ill – to the point where I’m not thrilled about life. But I am aware that I am seeing life from a position of illness. I also remember how good life can be.

Poland: COVID sceptics decry measures in Warsaw protest
Sep 12, 2020
Ruptly
Two to three thousand COVID-19 sceptics protested in Warsaw on Saturday against the restrictions imposed on citizens by the government amid the ongoing pandemic. The crowd walked through the city chanting slogans like: “Stop the false pandemic” and “Take off your mask”. They blamed media for allegedly lying about the health crisis in the country and around the world. Police forces gave instructions to organisers but did not intervene during the protest. No arrests have been reported.

See it and say it : <I>.

As soon as you have a personal biography, an independent or agentic mind, or an infinitely free personality – it is just a matter of time and reification before the fascist cops show up.

When you write descriptions that generate the split cognitive structure of the letter <I>: you are writing the Omnibus (Emergency Measures) Act subject by predicate by subject and line by line.

The metaphysical world we live in is proto-fascist: a bipolarisation brought to you by the communal and nihilistic Absolute ritualistic abuse of the verb <to be>.

And anyone who pointed this out – from the Buddha to Baudrillard – is a …[…]

[…] I’ll let you fill that bit in.

The real is relational; there is no permanent identity; the metaphysical conception of such and its superimposition on inferior peoples and the land causes suffering. A lot of suffering. These are the Three Marks of Existence: but no, the permanent letter <I> is more real.

It’s happening in the UK: looks like we’ll be in lockdown again within the fortnight. With possibly more emergency powers here. And still no one can identify the cause. No one actually forced us into duality. We certainly weren’t born in causal and intentional chains. We were educated into a previously existing intentional infrastucture and reflexive psycho-social dispositive behaviours that produced us as we reproduced them …as we merrily and descriptively forged the determinative State and the Chains of Own-Being …as a co-emergence. Anyone who has pointed to this very end has been marginalised …to say the least.

Another end to the world is at least possible if enough people see through the modernist illusion of the Mutually Assumed Dualism of the letter <I>. And its co-production of the State as a reflexivity.

The First Nation Aboriginals lived on the coastal strip for 50,000 years. If you discount early settler colonial projective accounts of savagery, war, and cannibalism: reasonably peaceably it seems. We came along and in little more than 200 years you’ve got this. The story is the same throughout Western settler colonialism ….the genocides, the ongoing land-grabs. It’s theirs. Give it back. And live by absorbing their Lore – not ours – if we want to survive.

Global fascism: brought to you by the pyscho-lexical mapping of superiority and global narcissism – mapped to the letter <I> – in exterminatory mappings of the Holy Trinity of Life (ours not theirs), free will Liberty (our negative Rights not theirs), and the blissful pursuit of Private Properties (our estates not theirs), mediated by capital (our social capitals not their spiritual one).

And still people cannot see how we got here.

The symbolism of many photos and narratives, like the photo in this article, is that of revolting muscle man with tattoos, or a plain housewife with children, etc. It signifies mediocre intelligence, the rule of the masses, against superious intelligence, the elites, or oligarchy, the two sharpening their swords, the battle of two fighting mean dogs, the latter being superior in intelligence, will likely win.

I don’t know about yours, but none of my Ex-Girl Friends, nor my wife of nearly 40 years have ever had a Tatoo…and they are all Still Georgeous

If you have got such beauty do not allow anyone to write Graffiti on it..or you will not look as Beautiful in your 60’s

Ok I am not still in contact with all of them – just the Best.

Do what you want. Graffiti is just a Protest.

I do understand that. I even like Chris Spivey..but he ain’t doing me, nor my wife, though he has certainly got an eye for it..

Is he still going?

He has got more balls than any of us,

Nice Bloke – completely OTT and uses working class language a lot, but I never found him offensive. I even sent him some money, when his dog wasn’t to well, and the police were beating his flat door down, with his 16 year old daughter and young baby videoing it in terror cos he posted a photo of Prince Charles chasing a kid. He probably photoshopped it, but it was really funny##

Having the front door of your house smashed to shit, by the Romford? based Essex Police isn’t. Especially after The Court case they do it again – and this was about 10 years ago.

The jury let him off, though he was most definitely guilty of a lot of swaering, and not showing that much respect, though the interview of him with the police, which is daughter managed to keep on going, does demonstrate, that he doesn’t really blame the police either -they were just doing their job and no one was physically injured, and people like me sent him a few quid to help pay for the damage to his flat, He’s a builder, so probably got some mates to help fix it cheap.

I hope he is well

I don’t think this is true. He much prefers old bags, not the most Beautiful Princess, any man could ever have. She used to go to the gym right opposite to where I worked, and take her kids to The English National Ballet and sit in the cheap seats near the fron, with my wife and our two kids, We notice these things.

I know such girls are difficult to deal with – they are competetely honest flighty, and flirty a bit like Goldie Hawn in her younger days..I mean what man wouldn’t fall in love with Princess Diana. All the Girls did too.

She was Our Princess

They killed her. The jury returned the verdict “Unlawful Killing”

The BBC never reported the Truth even then. They are DESPICABLE. I really do not like them, and I know some of the people who resigned and used to work for them. I am almost certain, the guy who released the 9/11 BBC Jane Standley Tapes 4 years after, where she said the Soloman Buildings WTC7 had collapsed too -over 20 minutes before they did, with it still standing there in the background of the live TV shoot (I think she is innocent) has been back to a party in my house and garden. A little bloke – he didn’t admit it. A very dangerous thing to do. I he is stil working there – good luck to him.

The BBC Archives especially the Music OGWT etc are a Complete Treasure.

Spivey takes too much time trying to sound like he has balls by using as much gratuitous bad language as possible.Less is more. By the tenth time in a second paragraph it’s become less humorous and more an exercise in translating what he’s trying to say.

He wants to be the outrageous enfant terrible of the alt movement with his shaved head and blanket of tattooes. A self -styled 50 something teenager with anger problems.

It’s a shame really. When he isn’t being a dickhead, he tackles some good issues from the right angle. But he lacks self discipline and trusts whoever he suspects agrees with his own view without ever checking enough sources..

There’s a fair point in there somewhere…
Where I live, there are a few spectacularly unattractive women with green hair, as well as some young men with “Threatening Individual” practically tattooed all over their body language, whom the media can never resist when it comes to reporting on a protest of some sort.
It’s laughably common and predictable nowadays. As you say, it is supposed to signify, subliminally, “low intelligence”, but it’s reached the point where we now recognize these individuals instantly, as well as the purpose they serve.

Is there some way other nations can intervene? If this was a US enemy state we’d be bringing democracy to the Australians as we speak.

Certainly no nation deserves America bringing “democracy” to them, but is there an actual, helpful intervention that another nation can do on behalf of Australia? Even though I understand this tyranny is part of a UN plan, if some nation brought this up at the UN it could be embarrassing and maybe he’d have to back off.

Also, UK Column has pointed out that some police are going through “special” training which changes them into people capable of doing what we see in Australia. Does anyone know how to break up that kind of mind conditioning? If so, say it so people might be able to break through to others when confronted by authorities who have likely been brainwashed.

Perhaps they need a sort of contemporary Braveheart, but certainly intellectual dystopian writers and guys like David Icke with his clumsy esoteric spirituality doesn’t invoke their passion for freedom. My theory is that ones has to appeal to what is common and simple, what creates the greatest engagement.

I am following the recommendations I have not sought advice .
Many shops have a policy not to challenge you. If they are following the guidelines they should not challenge you.

Just a FYI for other potential “thought criminals.” I just went to the book publisher’s website (Chelsea Green Publishing) to look at the book description and I put a copy in my “cart” and saved it as a purchase to complete later today. I then went to check my Outlook email account through Google Chrome and found I was suddenly was locked out. I had been in my Outlook account only two minutes earlier. Now suddenly there was no way to access it. Nothing helped, not even restarting my computer.

This has never happened before where all I can get when I attempt to log in through Google Chrome to Outlook is an error message. For better or worse I can however, still get to my Outlook account through the Safari browser, just no longer through Google Chrome, the browser I used to search for the covid book.

Fascinating. The punishment for “thought crime” certainly seems to be both swift and unmerciful these days I must say. One of the benefits of AI no doubt. Maybe with 5-G/6-G in the future the powers that be can just do a retinal scan, AI can determine that I’m – “thinking about” – buying the forbidden book, and they can just crash my whole system before I ever complete the purchase. Ah, the wonders of technology.

Of course clearly there is now simply no doubt that I will in fact purchase this book!

SALLY,

I’ve been afraid, almost since the start of this COVID in March, and it certainly wasn’t caused by Off-Guradian. Even Off-G probably thought I was mad, cos like 9/11, I knew things then, were going to get considerably worse, and they did. I was convinced we were going to run out of food, and run out of beer, and run out of bloody everything.

I still do, so I started growing my own food and brewing my own beer.

The potatoes taste much better than we buy in the supermarkets, just not got enough of them yet.

Should be O.K. with the beer though. Our next door neighbour grows loads of hops, and just leaves them to rot, and they have now spread to my garden.

Do you wear a mask? My wife does, and I am not impressed.

FEAR has both positive and negative effects.

The positive effect, has caused me to get off my arse and start digging, lose some weight and get fitter.

The negative effect is that I am afraid of meeting most of my brainwashed friends wearing masks, or even writing stuff on Facebook, cos then they complain to my wife, and then she gives me a hard time – stop upsetting my friends. She knows its a load of bollocks too, but likes keeping the peace.

Unlike me, she is very diplomatic. I tend to say what I think, especially after a drink.

Fortunately I was completely sober, during my last two recent interactions with the Police.

I know, they know its a load of bollocks too. Overheard “Sorry love, but we have got to be seen to be doing our job (what they tell us to do)”

The police are being tracked and monitored too. They don’t know who by – the monitor will appear just like any other member of the public. She won’t be wearing a Police Badge.

Is that what you do?

Are you one of the many sock-puppets who keep creating various usernames in order to make it appear that many people here are making the same stupid accusations, SALLY? Of course you’re probably also making up/down votes deceptive.
Now most would say you’re a mental case. But I’ve got a solution for you instead…

Kratom. Go to the store–health food store, vape store, tobacco store–or order online. Kratom is legal most everywhere. Get some Maeng Da Kratom, or Bali, or Borneo. Take about 3 to 5 grams your first dose. You should start feeling it within a half-hour. It will take away your anxiety. You’ll be able to function like a rational person. It’s all-natural–just crushed up leaves from Asian trees. Maybe then you’ll stop throwing up in the comment sections where real people want to discuss, compliment, and argue with one another;)

Think about it – you keep changing your name but your posts are still autospammed.

Whst does that tell you?

Think carefully…

Yes, that’s right. It’s not your name being ‘censored’, it’s the Akismet anti-spam picking up your numerous repeat posts under different names and assuming you are a spambot.

You are simply defeating yourself doing this. You’re competing with software not a human moderator.

As I’ve advised many times your best solution is to pick one name and post with that – and DON’T repeat post the same comment while awaiting approval. It doesn’t speed anything up and only makes you look even spammier to Akismet, thus exacerbating your problem.

By all means continue ignoring this advice if you want. It’s your time you’re wasting. 🤷🏻‍♀️

FEAR has done a bad day’s work if its only result is to numb or paralyze. Or, the fear of fear: the result is that we ignore, or avoid, or deny the obvious.

But FEAR, or just its adrenaline, has done its job quite right if we are all “scared straight” by this.

Fear is just great if it awakens!

Fear, through a long line of habitual responses over years will actually retrain people even not to perceive a growing threat. Just look at majority USA.!

Having the right kind of fear preached at us and wrestling with its angst is a better outcome than “fearless” extinction. Even a dinosaur can do that.

There is currently only one geopolitical game in town. It is the mass roll-out of US imperial power, flanked by the roll-out of it’s Corporate monopoly machine. Like East India Company was, they are the service providers to empire who provide the surveillance and the looted income to support the suppression of allies, vassal powers and rival economies.

So all recent events must been seen in that context. That is what Covid is, that is what Global warming is, that is what Brexit was. All part of a campaign to Make America Great Again, strategically and economically.

Whilst the CIA will probably have some Agent Provocateur’s present to instigate violence in an attempt to discredit a peaceful protest, the CIA / MI6 / British Crown have had almost complete control over The Australian Government for a considerable time.

If they don’t like who the current Australian Prime Minister is, they simply get rid of him, like they did with Gough Whitlam in 1975. Aussies should have complained more – it wasn’t very democratic.

So whilst the CIA, are undoubtedly in control of many such Colour Revolutions, such as in The Ukraine (it didn’t work too well did it?), they are hardly going to kick one off in Australia, though they may kick your head in if you go there to protest.

Still you should, if you want this to end.

They did not have total control of the UK, our democracy did function on one cylinder, and that caused problems.

There were too many independent political voices and people who were getting in the way of the ‘grand plan’, and they needed to be removed.

They will overturn the democracy which we didn’t even know we had, because the fascists kept telling us we didn’t have one.

But you’ll soon realise how important democracy was, when it is gone and we are being told what to do by Generals.
