And the establishment response to Desperate Dan's dog's dinner of a policy: Dan Andrews was awarded the highest civilian order in Australia in the 2024 King's Birthday Honours list. Mistakes were not made!

"Nearly three quarters of Victorians supported the Andrews Government’s extreme measures in the first year of the pandemic, polling shows."

Is there any hope for humanity?

Media and academia have a lot to do with that I’d say. If they could get honest and drop their quasi-religious dogmas, humanity has a chance!

Nothing like a concerted public campaign of fear and 'keep others safe' ' don't be selfish' to hypnotize people. Stunning to see in an educated nation how easily people are hypnotized.

Another great piece of writing, thank you Rebekah. "Poorer populations lead shorter, less healthy lives" -it's hard to believe anyone needs to be told this, so maybe THE Govt KNEW!?

Not to mention our very own Mark McGowan, also "honoured" for his contribution to "public health". Wasted what $500m or so on RAT tests? They were giving them away at train stations, they had so many. I remember there was literally a huge pallet of them outside Bunnings one day, with a sign saying "FREE".

These people are hailed as heroes by the establishment for basically hurting the people, badly. That tells you everything you need to know about the establishment.

Bureaucracy gone feral with authority given to untrained persons using it indiscriminately without aim or positive result Pandemic was planned for or how to handle it when arriving National scheme should be set up to cover fairly broad basis so that each state knows what the other may be doing ironing out awkward border scenes
