Comrades, when the COVID Compliance Ministry down-under says you must quarantine yourself, they really mean it. Australians are not even allowed to operate machinery that might travel on their behalf. Apparently the Rona can infect electronic devices, even drones mid-flight, and present a risk for spreading the virus.
Australians are “locked-down”, even in their lock-down. Meaning they are physically imprisoned and not permitted any outside communication or contact, with anything, in order to preserve the health integrity of all other planetary objects in their sphere of influence.
Federal COVID Sky Marshals are patrolling the cities and suburbs looking for non-compliant citizens. If captured, the non-compliant dissident is detained, fined and then forcibly quarantined. WATCH:
.
It’s for your own good comrades.
Please remind the last ‘free-range Australian‘ to grab the flag and turn out the lights.
Didn’t Australia begin as a penal colony.
And so it returns to one.
As it was at the binning, so shall it be at the end.
So did America.
Australia started their colony after American Revolution.
Hope it clicks in the memory forever this time
while most of America’s colonials from Britain were considered “undesirables” it was NOT a penal colony
To believe we were a convict trade, would erase all guilt being used against us.
It’s why the banishment act is never taught
One relative on my father’s mother’s side , is the “Grand Old Lady of Boston” and her picture is in a museum in Boston, according to family lore. She jumped off the ship, at 17, not very dignified then, and came ashore in the 1600’s. On the other side I am 1st generation, by my mom, and 3rd generation. Everyone was poor when they arrived.That is America.
I guess my point is, that those early immigrants from England were usually poor and hungry and looking for a better life or another chance. This has continued all the way through until today.
yet
Georgia was
Actually you were more right than my 30 year memory:
James Oglethorpe, British soldier, Parliament member and humanitarian founded Georgia.
His IDEA was to Found a Debtors Colony. Never pulled it off.
King George wanted a cash cow.
Nonetheless, “through the colonial history, Britain sent about 60,000 men, women, and children, who were considered ex-convicts, across the Atlantic. Very few of them ended up in the state of Georgia. Most were sent to Maryland and Virginia.”
EX. So undesirable but not prisoners.
You right!
Sorry, but the USA did not start as a penal colony, rather by people looking for the freedom to practice their religion
That’s what you were taught.
Botany bay starte after the American Revolution.
Tell me, explain to me, why on Earth a colony would be needed to make AFTER successful years of convict trade into the America’s.
Everyone I hear discuss this topic comes from recent immigrations talking of Ellis island or some other bullshit
The original, the first, the ones were brought here via convict trade , including the whores to populate ( hence our attractiveness over others).
I say this over and over, hoping it clicks, and that the Ellis island story stops being our intro for America settling.
The True Forgotten Men, Convict trade, via England disbanding their army of the outsiders.
AHH, another revisionist historian…surprised you aren’t spouting 1619 tripe…I have been a history addict for over 50 years and your fantastical view of history is all delusion
whats revisionist about convict trade in america?
“Colonist in Bondage”
is it insulting to beleive americas were populated this way, prior to the revolt or ellis island?
to me it seems like a herioc story of defeating an oppresive government.
—–
Botany Bay (Australia Penal Colony founded post 1775). Britian decided to make a penal colony for the first time ever AFTER 1775? metadata, critical thinking.
just cause someone comes from ellis island in their ancestry, does not mean they are lesser that the original people shipped here to die.
your 1619 comment makes me think you misinterpreted what i said, or I am coming off wrong. I’ll pause for now, cause i can assure you i’m simply stating what i’ve researched with primary sources. and i think its valuable to add to your knowledge.
I think you both may be right to some degree. There were a large amount of what back then were called indentured servants. Basically another name for slave. These were mainly of Irish descent. And a great many did come from the prisons.
But the vast majority were escaping not only religious persecution by the Church of England , but also escaping from being enslaved by the Muslim armies that were conquering many lands that make up modern day Europe.
That was my impression from my reading.
In fact, I read somewhere one of the Last Muslim Slave Raids outside of the Med and Southern Europe
was ON Ireland.
“The Sack of Baltimore took place on 20 June 1631, when the village of Baltimore in West Cork, Ireland, was attacked by the Ottoman Algeria from the Barbary Coast of North Africa – Dutchmen, Algerians and Ottoman Turks. The attack was the largest by Barbary slave traders on Ireland.”
DaHermit, I knew about the religious freedom immigrants, the debtor’s prisons releases and the indentured servants in the colonies, but I’d never heard of the Barbary slave traders raiding Ireland. Thanks for the info.
Whiteboard. ……. You appear to have some understanding of History. …… Makes me wonder if you are an American. …….. I have great respect for Americans in general but most have very little knowledge of World History.
Yup, I admit to being disgracefully undereducated, Master’s From Duke notwithstanding.
Indeed. William Penn, Puritins, etc.
Compare to Virginia, Maryland, New York.
The colonies grew in part because of prison laborers, aka indentured servants.
And make a buck.
Not all colonies were Dissenters.
Many were bankrolled as investments.
Puzzled ……. Little known fact. ……. America was massively more founded , for several centuries , on deported British convicts than Australia. …… Other Colonists basically used them as slaves. On finishing their sentence most stayed in America. They are your ancestors ……. After you lot of revolting characters did revolt the Botany Bay settlement was started , to divert there , those convicts previously sent to America. ……. After a few decades this practise was stopped. ….. A lot of those deported to Australia were Irish Agitators rather than thieves etc. ….. Also no-one convicted of a serious crime was deported. They were all hung.
Seems like you’re ignoring a lot of the reasons why so many were sent to the colonies: their resistance to the Church of England. The concept of religious freedom seems to be ignored in your account.
Marc …………… You are getting confused with the Maytag Mob going to America. One group among many. ……………. I did mention Irish ( Roman Catholic ) Agitator convicts deported to Australia. The main cause of their agitation was that when the Irish invaded England to put back a Catholic King that the English had kicked out, (The English had a Revolution waaaaay back. ) , The Poms belted them and then laid waste to Ireland. The Irish picked that fight and lost it. They also never forgot. ………… The Irish are a great people , kin to the Welsh and the Scottish , and both America and Australia benefited from their arrival. ……….. Australia and America have many connections. ….. In the 1800,s most criminals , and most Police , in both New York and Melbourne were Irish. ……… When the horse drawn Police waggon took prisoners to court in New York there would be several men in Uniform up front and a dozen men in the locked box on the waggon. Almost all would be Irish. It was commonly called the ” Paddy Waggon “. …………. Americans who came to the Victorian Gold Rush brought the term with them. ……. To this day , all over Australia , The Police Divvy Van ( with a locked section for prisoners ) is called a ” Paddy Waggon”.
A case in point…the obit of a distant cousin of one of my ancestors.

Interesting that he had to move to avoid the Puritans.
From the look of Jeff Bezos’ head and the look of his rocket, one may think that someday he may start a penis colony.
Well played
World has gone mad.
And getting madder all the time….literally and figuratively!
Wait until they start trying to convince us that the Wuhan/Fauci virus can be transmitted through phone lines and the internet.
Please don’t give them any ideas.
The covid mRNA vaccine can be transmitted between inoculated and those near.
Cas9\ crispr.
As this statement catches on, the online presence of websites allowing this communication will lessen
The vax may be the antenna/receiver for when 5G becomes universal. It will allow big brother to communicate directly with its zombie slaves..to control them.
AG Merrick Garland started young – at 15 years old – to learn how to rule the world with the help of computers – he probably has a lot of ideas and would no doubt welcome new ideas for ensuring totalitarian control.
A sickness of the soul in these maniacs is threatening all life on this planet.
Michael Crichton saw this coming a while back. Truth IS stranger than fiction.
Michael Crichton dreamed of these things and worse. . The junta is implementing some of them for our “benefit” it seems.
It won’t get very good reception if its relibility to prevent Covid is any indicator.
5G operates in the same frequency range that the CIA uses in their mind control experiments.
The M gene is a messenger gene and the RNA genes of the so-called “vaccine” can attach to and read your DNA genes. That data is sent via the messenger gene and the 5G network to big brother. He no longer needs face recognition equipment nor ID microchips to track us.
We are going to need the “vaccine” to buy or sell.
Could it be that all the particles in the vax that possess magnetic properties aggregate in the brain to create a receiver of sorts. A “chip” of sorts that acts somewhat like a cell phone . An internal phone that one can never hang up or turn off.
You mean you can’t get COVID through FB or Twitter (snark Off).
They have like 8 cases and this!
This is nuts. Unfortunately, there is no 2nd amendment in Australia. The government does not have to fear the people. Obviously.
Just imagine how fast this whole thing would have been over had politician and snivel servant salaries been suspended for the duration….
precisely!
That particular State Premier has handled it so far with the least damage to the Economy. …… The Prime Minister has also done about the the best he could . The only thing he has control over is people entering the country. He closely followed President Trump,s lead. …… As in America the States have control. ….. They botch things up and then blame the Prime Minister.
We won’t either much longer the way things are going.
Concur
Excellent! This is what we need here instead of propaganda
And the Australian Gov’t already confiscated the citizens’ guns awhile back, after a mass shooting i think?
except there are MORE guns in private hands after the mandatory buyback than before it went into effect
The work of Mr. Luty receives some interest in Australia. There’s also quite the smuggling industry. It’s a lot of coastline to guard.
Had to look that one up.
They don’t fear us now.
And so far we’ve given them little reason to.
The 2nd Amendment is an individual right, but one of the GOALS in securing it was enumerated IN it:
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State.”
I don’t see one of those in MY state. The National Guard, whatever the language is de jure, de facto it is the Ready Reserve of The National Army.
I don’t see any Guard Unit in any state going all Fort Sumpter.
I don’t know of any state with a trained and equipped militia distinct from the Guard.
So I don’t see why our Overlords should fear our 2nd Amendment.
Sherri, I pray the Good Lord will have mercy on the good people of Australia. The officials are off the rails.
I’m an Aussie living in Canada. I’ve been waiting for 18 long months to be able to go back to visit family, all of whom are there. The Aussie border remains closed to its ex-pat citizens unless you are rich, politically connected or famous. And if you’re any of those things you don’t even have to be an Aussie to get in (despite the border being “closed to all but Australian citizens”.
I thought Canada was bad, but the Australian politicians seem to have completely lost their minds. There was a time when sending a drone out to get your smokes would have been considered a sign of good old Aussie ingenuity.
Its getting really challenging to stay positive with my adopted country picking up speed on its slide into all out communism, America just to the south going all out totalitarian….and now my home country going off a cliff. Where on earth is left?
Excellent post. Doug Ford conservative govt in Ontario has been such a disappointment. My wife is from Ecuador. She went back a week ago to see family.
Many of her family would not allow her to visit because she wasn’t vaccinated. The entire country is in absolute fear of the Delta variant. People all masked up on the beach alone. Shocking apparently. So discouraging to see this level of brainwashing.
Jesus said that He was the truth and the life. When we take God out of a country truth disappears too. It is my only explanation. I watch as vaccinated people live in fear of the unvaxed. Seriously they are more afraid of the unvaxed person than the virus. And if you don’t trust the vax to protect you why did you get it in the first place.
It is soul sucking to see people clamouring for the govt to implement more measures. Here in Ontario I’m sure that if they tried to drop the mask mandate there would be an enormous outcry.
Ridiculous times we live in.
DD
None of that is true, demoralization shill.
Sez you
That seems rather personal. Care to explain your position?
Right from the guidelines, good on you, PJ.
None of what? Who’s the shill?
Toronto, which is the biggest city in Ontario and Canada was the longest locked down city in the world up until last Friday. Dan Dale speaks truth.
odd bodkins
They’ve dropped the mask mandate here in BC, but virtually everyone is still wearing them. Which would seem to show they don’t trust their vax.
Worse than not trusting the “vaccine” is that while for over a year they have seen anyone dropping dead in the streets, they dont trust their own eyes.
Searching for Galt’s Gulch
Yes!
Did the drone test positive?
Yes, it tested positive for freedom and they won’t allow that.
Wow. They developed a swab for that? I guess I missed it.
If a fruit can test positive then I bet this drone can too.
The Communist/Fascist/Totalities’ are going for broke in their attempt to control the People of the World. US Constitutional Freedom is a freak.
The citizens of the USA had better get serious and smart or lose it all. We have a sample of it operating right now in the White House and Washington, DC.
Trump and MAGA is all about survival. Trump and MAGA is no longer a discussion but a necessity.
Lose America and the whole world will fall. We are seeing it playing out in real time. Hope you kept your powder dry….
hence all global puppets aligned to sack America.
remember America – you are privlidged people that settled here through Ellis Island. You never earned this country, you never were convicts traded here under the revisionist 1 sentence history lesson of ‘indentured servent’ /sarc
They need to vote all these fools out of office- ASAP.
No disrespect, but vote these fools out of office, really!
Like you tried to vote President Trump back into office.
Elections are meaningless.
Precisely.
If that is True, and at this point it appears to be, then that would logically seem to only leave one Alternative.
The Founders’ Choice.
It’s been tried at least twice more, both failed.
I see no signs we are as serious, organized, and equipped as the Secessionists.
Obviously and unfortunately you are not alone in thinking your vote counts. We just had a concise and clear example of your vote not counting in a rigged vote counting, resulting in a fraudulent 2020 Presidential election and people still “don’t get it”.
If this fraudulent 2020 Presidential election is allowed to stand “IT IS OVER”. You are now a Communist/Fascist/Totalitarian “subject” and no longer a Constitutional “Free Citizen”.
I hope you are not thinking mandated vaccine shots are just a one time deal. It is just the beginning of a regimented life right down to when you go to the grocery store.
Think really hard about WHY they are so damned determined everyone get jabbed and don’t just accept the conventional wisdom.
They want to jab folks continually . Can’t do that if you don’t get a first one. Also it will be noted how healthy the non jabbed are. Not good for the jab makers .
Really really close. Now ask yourself what if once you are jabbed you are dependent on forever jabs? Is the heart damage to young males a feature not a bug? Portend of things to come?
Yes Mycroft, we need to really think about why they are using so much force full ness on this subject of vaccination.
Push push push push from everywhere about this all over the world.
Now we are seeing lock down in our own homes but I bet we will soon see people being removed from their homes and taken to a “safe” place if they refuse to be vaccinated.
Similar to the relocation of the Jews to the ghettos.
Like the Jews the non-vaccinated will be declared unsanitary and isolated for “every ones well being”.
Then after the ghettos will the cattle cars and the ovens be next, I really do not know.
I hope I am just being overly paranoid and weird tonight but this news from Australia is sobering.
Indeed, the whole point is endless “booster”shots
What if booster shot or death?
I’d probably decide to take a Tyrant enabler with me.
Yup
Do really think they will let us vote?
Nope . This is ramping up . Warp speed . Prepare spiritually , no MAGA can save us now . Only one savior . Get on your knees , prayer and fasting and stock up on basics . Oil and wheat . Water purifier .
And lead, lots and lots of lead.
Rope comes in handy too in a pinch.
Get on your knees and they will chop off your head. Standup and fight them and you will chop off their head.
God give us the power and grace to live our lives to the fullest and not a God intended life of grovel on our knees.
Something to be said for that, FD.
Sure they will let us vote. So what?
Was it Lenin or Stalin who said: “What counts is who counts.”?
And how do you envision God doing that?
Pinpoint meteors like Sodom?
Selective plague like Egypt?
Imminent Return?
Rapture (if your Theology and or Hermeneutic separates the two)?
Or does God task us to act for Justice, like he tasks us to act for compassion?
In Judges he tasks bloody minded, bloody handed killers to the “wet work” of Deliverance.
If, in The American Constitutional Republic, The People are sovereign and there is no legitimate government without our consent (as The Founders asserted) do WE, you and I bear the sword against Evildoers?
Last question. The Civil War seems to show The Government’s stockpiles are deeper than the individual secessionist’s.
How long are you planning for that wheat and oil to last?
6 weeks, 6 months, a year?
Prayer and fasting and preparation are all duties, and all good.
On the other hand as Martin Luther cribbed from the Benedictines “Ora et Labora.” Pray and work.
That worked well last time.
The video included in this below is astonishing…
The confidence in government is really collapsing around the world. In Australia, they are now telling people they should not even talk to anyone else in a desperate attempt to use this virus as a means to suppress society and end any assembly to prevent the overthrow of the government itself. Meanwhile, the US government is now tracking your search history in Google, for example, to see if you are an extremist.

HaHa! I do get some items wrong occasionally.
Population just shy of 25 million, 7 day average of 135 cases, deaths per day at ZERO, and locked down tighter than, well, you fill in the blank.
No country will ever reach zero cases. The virus is going to be around for a long time, with small outbreaks scattered around the world. The government in Australia is simply power hungry wannabe totalitarians.
Remember a ways back when Aussies voluntarily gave up their guns? I bet they remember now.
who designed the test, can someone validate them please?
Kary Mullis got a Noble prize for the technique and he specifically states it is not for diagnosing viral infection!
PCR Inventor Kary Mullis Talks About Anthony Fauci — “he doesn’t know anything really about anything”
Kary Mullis said over twenty-plus years ago, “there are no old wise men up at the top (of science/medicine) making sure we don’t do something really dumb.”
Boy, was he ever right.
Old Bama Guy. …… Not Voluntarily And basically we lost Semi Autos. …… Those things that if you have one you can,t hit the wall of a barn. No better way of ruining a good shot. ……. We now have more and newer public fire-arms than before the ” Buy-back.”
Can’t hit the side of the barn? Don’t suggest that to my wife with her .40.
Mycroft …….. O.K. That saying might be a bit over the top. The actual American , ( Aussies mostly say Shed ) saying is ” Could not hit the wall of a barn from inside the barn ). The point I was making is that experienced people who use a repeater or single shot consistently hit the target with their first shot because they do aim correctly. ……. Those with Semi-autos tend to operate on the law of averages and use a lot more ammo to hit the target. If you are competent with Fire-arms you do know this. ……….. If not , ask your wife. Of course , as with all things , there is an odd individual out there to whom this does not apply.
Lord have mercy, the world has gone completely mad!
Governor of Alabama berating the unvaccinated. More ReplubliCons pushing vaccine.
Silence on unvaccinated illegals pouring into the country. Silence on vaccinated having full blown Wuhan flu.
You meant “Republi-CANTS right?
?
Jay Inslee was just berating Trump voters in Pierce County WA a week or so ago during a press conference.
“If you are a 50-year-old man, you know, who voted for Donald Trump and didn’t think COVID was a problem, and you don’t get vaccinated right now, you put at risk every kid in your city.”
Oh geez, “Do it for the children.” Seriously?
I didn’t see the Inslee one
Thanks
And less than 350 kids have died WITH COVID, while the 2018 flu season claimed the lives of over 700. Our “elite” are evil imbeciles.
And evil liars
Straight up denial of Science
I am also in Pierce county.
Inslee is an a$$
call them communist spys amongst us.
push it!
we already got Biden talking about blood sucking.. keep it up
Not surprising when one sees the leaders of 5 countries who refused the jab, are now dead.
You mean the corrupt, evil politicians supposedly elected to be the representatives of We the People? I pray every day that God will remove every single one of them by any means He sees fit.
In Judges that was folks like Ehud and Jael.
Are you sure you are prepared for what that looks like?
So true InAz.
Not one word about the illegals allowed into our country and then bussed or flown all around to every state of the union.
No covid tests or lockdowns for them just freedom.
I saw an ad today for this evening’s edition of Inside Edition. It is to include a group of women who were banned from fakebook for joining a gardening club. They were told they had violated the “Community Guidelines”.

More US propaganda:
“COVID is also acting differently now,” Spector said in a briefing last week, CNBC reported. “It’s more like a bad cold in this younger population and people don’t realize that and that hasn’t come across in any of the government information.” ?
“In a completely unmitigated environment, where no one is vaccinated or wearing masks, it’s estimated that the average person infected with the original coronavirus strain will infect 2.5 other people,” said Perry Wilson, a Yale Medicine epidemiologist. “In the same environment, delta would spread from one person to maybe 3.5 or 4 other people.”
The greatest defense against the delta variant are the vaccines, experts say. The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is 88% effective against delta after two doses, McClatchy News reported. Studies of the Moderna vaccine show it has just a “modest reduction” in antibody levels compared to the original strain.

…and those 2.5 more…in one hundred jumps that is …. well I can’t count that high

I’m not sure this Delta scarient exists as they claim.
Me thinks, and I am a deep thinker, my 2 cents are worth more than 2 cents, me thinks, the vax created this current uptick in cases. “The Delta”
Things were getting back to normal, numbers going down, then they rolled out the vax, next thing you know….
“delta”
Sounds like the escape theory is right. The vax caused the virus to mutate and these vaxxers are shedding it like crazy.
Dr. Peter McCullough says after vax a person is likely shedding the virus for 2-4 weeks, maybe longer. It is shed in salvia tears and body fluids. So after the vax the person receiving it is spreading the virus until the protein is absorbed.
Another treeper posted this yesterday, wish I could remember who so I could thank them!! This is one of the most informative videos I’ve ever seen.

But it’s working and they’re winning.
This is actually a pretty massive exaggeration. Yes, there are parts of Australia (not by any means all of it) where various degrees of lockdown are in effect, but that doesn’t mean you can’t leave your home, much less does it mean that you can’t have contact with the outside world.
I am in one of the areas affected by lockdown now, but yet I’m communicating with you. I can leave the house to go for a walk, which I did yesterday, and I could also engage in other outdoor activities, as long as I stay within my local government area (akin to “county”, for those in the US) and don’t do it with more than one other person unless they are a member of my household. I can go to work if it isn’t practicable to do so from home, and I did that yesterday too. I can also go to the shops. If I was too lazy to cook for myself and family I could have food delivered, and there’s the post and home delivery of goods if I didn’t want to go out and get them myself.
Yes, it is a pain, and yes, I don’t like it, but it isn’t prison and I suspect that it isn’t any more stringent than conditions others in other countries have had to deal with. It has run for a couple of weeks and I’ll be glad when it is over.
Well Mate, what about the 30,000 Aussies throughout the world who cannot go home? They are locked out of their own country.
You ARE in prison when your freedom to travel and return is denied.
You are living in The Truman Show. It only looks like normal life.
The Australian government is lying to its people. Lockdowns cannot work and have not worked.
Masks don’t stop the virus from spreading.
The so-called vaccines are not stopping the jabbed from getting the virus. The jabs ARE killing thousands of people and disabling hundreds of thousands.
The Covid 19 (if there in fact is such a thing) is more than 99 % survivable.
Yes, there are restrictions on people coming into the country – and they have been very successful thus far in limiting the impact of COVID19 here – but it is an outright falsehood to say that Australians can’t come home. The limiting factor is the availability of flights and of quarantine facilities, not any ban on returns. Saying they are “locked out” is another massive exaggeration, if not an outright lie.
As well, people can and are travelling overseas. Why only last weekend the husband of one of my team left the country.
The rest of your post is not relevant to what I said.
they have been very successful thus far in limiting the impact of COVID19 here
Proof?
Deaths per capita attributed to COVID19 about 1/50 that of the US, to take one example, though I’m mindful of some issues with the way these things are reported. The rest of the “proof” you could easily find for yourself.
Even the current hysteria here regarding an uptick in cases only actually involves very small numbers, on both an absolute and per capita basis.

All they’re doing is prolonging the misery. The virus is going to be around forever. Like every other cold and flu virus. Let people catch it and be done with it.
.
It’s ridiculous. Set up clinics to treat people early (we have them); let the old, obese, sick and particularly vulnerable quarantine themselves, and everyone else just stop being such credulous fearful pansies, and let yourselves catch it and be done with it.
This isn’t the Black Plague. Oldish, overweight, overworked and sleep-deprived President Trump caught it and with regeneron, was back in action within a week.
I too am in home detention aka lockdown.
So what if people get sick? That happens all the time.
What matters is when people die or are hospitalised. There are too few deaths and hospitalisations to warrant these penalties aka restrictions. Meanwhile people are losing their jobs and their homes and even their lives, and children are accruing some permanent scarring.
The threat is so low the government has to go “doctor shopping”. 125 positive tests out of 85000 mandatory total tests. How many of these 125 people were fine until a “test” instructed them that they were not fine?
End of next year we will have uni graduates who have never been to uni. That’s how ludicrous this all is.
“It isn’t prison” and it isn’t freedom. What it is…”surrender”.
I wish we had a down vote. Seriously look what you just wrote and read it aloud…
Stockholm syndrome is a psychological response. It occurs when hostages or abuse victims bond with their captors or abusers. This psychological connection develops over the course of the days, weeks, months, or even years of captivity or abuse.
With this syndrome, hostages or abuse victims may come to sympathize with their captors. This is the opposite of the fear, terror, and disdain that might be expected from the victims in these situations.
Over the course of time, some victims do come to develop positive feelings toward their captors. They may even begin to feel as if they share common goals and causes. The victim may begin to develop negative feelings toward the police or authorities. They may resent anyone who may be trying to help them escape from the dangerous situation they’re in.
This paradox does not happen with every hostage or victim, and it’s unclear why it occurs when it does.
Many psychologists and medical professionals consider Stockholm syndrome a coping mechanism, or a way to help victims handle the trauma of a terrifying situation. Indeed, the history of the syndrome may help explain why that is.
I think that the problem is that you are reading what I wrote through a filter of your own prejudices and, in all likelihood, your ignorance of what is actually happening here.
By suggesting Stockholm syndrome, not only do you deny the truth of my actual lived experience here, in favour of your own views of what is going on in my country, but suggest that I am somehow, without realising it, not only a hostage but an accomplice. This despite the fact that I quite clearly said that while the reports of the situation are grossly exaggerated, I do not like the situation which actually does exist. How do you reconcile that with your patronising post.
In calling out the denial of liberty, it is important to make sure you are basing your argument on facts. Else you are apt to look a bit of a fool.

Please explain why one of your fellow citizens is penalized for just what exactly?
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lickthehands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.
Samuel Adams
In my home state of Ohio we have a RINO governor who would like to do the same thing.
Please don’t give him ideas.
“Bulverism is the logical fallacy of assuming without discussion that a person is wrong and then distracting his or her attention from this (the only real issue) by explaining how that person became so silly, usually associating it to a psychological condition. The fallacy deals with secondary questions about ideas rather than the primary one, thus avoiding the basic question or evading the issues raised by trains of reasoning. It is essentially dodging your opponent’s argument by treating them like a psychiatry patient who needs your evaluation to explain why they came up with such a ridiculous argument in the first place.”
Please explain why one of your fellow citizens is penalized for just what exactly?
Why? It has nothing to do with what I posted. It is not even relevant to the broader question of lockdowns, as it concerned a person in quarantine. Do try to focus – or do I need to explain the strawman fallacy to you too?
Humor me?
Please explain why one of your fellow citizens is penalized for just what exactly?
.
The attitude that lockdowns — or just “restrictions” are somehow okay and can accomplish something positive — enables more tyranny. Why? Because this thing is no worse on average if someone catches it than ordinary flu — which, by the way kills far more young people.
Stop projecting.
How am I projecting Polly? Take your time to read what I’ve posted, and think about your answer.
Touchy aren’t we? Strike a nerve? Fool?
Methinks thou doth protest too much.
Agreed.
Mycroft ….. Sherlocks brother you aint. …… Dan put the Australian situation very well. Ponder the fact that Australia is an island without an open southern border. Our Prime Minister restricted people coming in the day after President Trump did. Our percentage of infected is about the lowest in the world.
Our percentage of infected is about the lowest in the world.
I’m 7 decades old. I’ve seen this hype about a virus before. Why the panic over something with a very high survivability rate? My wife has had it. My granddaughter we raise had it. I take a lot of D3 and melatonin and quercetin among other supplements per my healer’s instruction prior to this “plague”and I have never had it. In fact this old man doesn’t hasn’t been sick with infection for years. Treated with commonly available well tolerated meds SARS–CoV-1 is a non issue. Most doctors here are captive of the medical machine.
If I were in Australia I’d be a lot more concerned about how you are going to stop China from taking your continent from you – just like it’s doing here.
I’m flabbergasted at how fast here we are becoming a dictatorship. Apearently it’s been in the works for decades but the threat of Trump has put it into afterburner.
filter of your own prejudices
Naw, not all all. They’re posting as a free citizen with God given rights, as opposed to someone conditioned to think their rights come from govt, and that govt knows what’s best for them. Stop projecting your own prejudices on others.
Ok. Won’t gainsay you, Dan, you make cogent and excellent points, but I will opine.
I think “lived experience” is a catch phrase that arose from an analytical method similar to CRT, Radical Feminism, “Intersectionalism” and various other Victimologies.
Note I am NOT saying your worldview overlaps in any way with any of those, but the term IS central to their hierarchy of victim hood.
ALL “experience” is LIVED experience. You can’t get it without living it.
Nonetheless the term is used as some kind of semantic/moral Trump Card! See! Top That! I have “lived experience X”, I am indemnified against criticism or rebuttal!
Again, I am NOT saying your usage was meant to do anything like that. Hence my “Ok, I won’t gainsay you.”
But, it did trip my alarm bells and I do wish it would pass out of the lexicon.
In my cogitation method, God’s leading, Reason, and Others’ Wisdom, are considered equally with Experience.
Any Methodists out there might recognize that.
Dan, what you acquiesce to today by staying in your county, will tighten to “your city, neighborhood, home.”
This power grab is too heady to let go of.
That might well be true and, as I said, I don’t like what is happening. My point however, is that what was described by Sundance (usually a very good source of information, whose posts I’ve read every day for years) was not in fact reflective of the actual situation here. Saying that, despite what some may think, is not supporting the current restrictions.
I do note too that those in other countries, including the US, have had the same challenges to freedom. In some cases rather worse challenges to freedom in fact.
not in fact reflective of the actual situation here
Sounds like CNN. Complete gaslighting.
For crystal clarity, and the benefit of those struggling to keep up. None of these sentences is actually true:
“Australians are not even allowed to operate machinery that might travel on their behalf. Apparently the Rona can infect electronic devices, even drones mid-flight, and present a risk for spreading the virus.
Australians are “locked-down”, even in their lock-down. Meaning they are physically imprisoned and not permitted any outside communication or contact, with anything, in order to preserve the health integrity of all other planetary objects in their sphere of influence.
Federal COVID Sky Marshals are patrolling the cities and suburbs looking for non-compliant citizens. If captured, the non-compliant dissident is detained, fined and then forcibly quarantined.”
The reality is that there are a few areas which are subject to restrictions. Much of Australia is not. In those areas which are subject to restrictions they are nowhere near as severe as claimed in the above. They are nonetheless an affront to freedom and they are having adverse effects on people’s lives. They are making people “pissed” (in the sense used in the US – here “pissed” means drunk). I’m among those who are pissed.
My point however is that what was claimed in the article to which I am making this comment was untrue. Every one of the sentences quoted is untrue. This is disappointing, because as a long time reader of Sundance’s posts this is uncharacteristic. As well, quoting false information undermines the argument against the restrictions which we in fact do have, and against the massive hysteria which is being engendered here about comparatively tiny numbers of people actually made sick let alone dying of this disease.
I do note too that those in other countries, including the US, have had the same challenges to freedom. In some cases rather worse challenges to freedom in fact.
And now who is diverting?
Yes we do and those of us not sheep are damned well pissed about it!
Acquiesce NO!
People are “pissed” here too, including me. How hard is that to understand?
Please reread the second paragraph of your post at
Dan
July 23, 2021 8:32 pm
Yes, and then read the paragraph which follows it. Take your time…
So, looks like Dan is okay with a “little bit of tyranny” for a “little while”.
Wonder what the Fascists think of that?
With time anything is possible.
Another one who hasn’t actually read what I posted. Or perhaps just couldn’t understand it. I thought I’d kept it pretty simple, but perhaps it needs a bit more dumbing down?
Please explain why one of your fellow citizens is penalized for just what exactly?
Dan , you could not dumb it down enough. ……. Mycroft and Polly are using the typical Socialist ploy of ignoring what you say and attacking something you did not say to rubbish the facts you have given. ………. Give up ….,…….. It is pointless to argue with drunks or fools.
Can you then please explain why one of your fellow citizens is penalized for just what exactly as Dan appears unable to do so?
Patronizing are we?
So, you’re okay being a prisoner in your own neighborhood. May be okay for you but not everyone is okay with being held hostage by their govt that demands they become a guinea pig for an unapproved, not fully tested, chemical concoction that alters your immune system forever.
And another one. Do they not teach you folks reading comprehension?
Ah yes those ignorant Americans who are unable to mount a logical argument and neither speak nor comprehend the Queen’s English nor can they pronounce
aluminumaluminium correctly.Oh, wow! Your elite has allowed you a little freedom within a restricted area. Thank goodness for that. Not. They’re conditioning people to accept table scraps as a banquet.
It does rather look that way, yes.
kleen: Perfect.
Good Grief!
The drone delivery was a BRILLIANT solution to the nicotine deficiency. Why fine the buyer?
This is government overreach at its worst.
What is going on? Macron all in on vaccine passports. Now the Israeli Prime Minister is saying people who refuse the vaccine will be punished…
Every politician now pushing the vax. Watch this video and the Prime Minister’s statement.
They are all Hitler now.
Yes they are. AND we are the Jews!
Warsaw Ghetto Time!
It is because getting the jab will give them more power over us, the people, than merely restricting our movement.
ITS A TRAP!!!
Really close!
.
And next time they demand you submit to this or that, there will be precedent and it will get easier and easier.
Like everything worth the money spent, the vaccines were “free” to the people who participated in the experiment.
Here is his statement if you want to read it. AND why isn’t this all over the U.S. news? The fake news media is purposely hiding world news about this tyranny!!!!
Statement by PM Bennett | Prime Minister’s Office (www.gov.il)
Blind no longer: O.K., that’s enough for me. Time to turn out Israel’s Bennett Government.
Paid for by the Middle-Class taxpayers, a group of hard working, brilliant, freedom loving individuals, who fight everyday of their lives to make a living to feed, clothe, raise their children and better the society in which they live.
The very same class of people that the Fascists Elitists Despise and are working to annihilate.
Masks, lockdowns, curfew, booster shots is an admission the jab doesn’t work.
Exactly
They say the unvaccinated are causing vaxed to get sick
Translating: Vax is not working and we need scapegoats.
I listen to this stuff and I am considering the advice my college roommate keeps giving me. He says I should get a 20 G shot Gun so my 100 lb wife and kids can protect themselves. After this and south Africa, I am thinking really hard about it. How much Ammo should I get. I am going to West Virginia next week and last time I was there, the flashlights were locked in cases and the ammo was on the shelves to grab.
Get enough ammo for 3 presidential election cycles. Yes. I am serious.
You’re assuming you’ll find ammo? It’s scarce as hen’s teeth. Lead is now price of precious metals.
Think a little harder about a 20g… I’m sure others here know far more than I but a 20g might toss your wife on her butt? Join a gun club or a gun range. You can’t just “buy a gun;” you need to know how to use it safely.
Indeed.That’s a critical point, learn and train. One doesn’t just buy and drive a car either.
Have you been on the roads lately?
Pepper ….. Better to get a 12 G. and load cartridges for required recoil . ….. Then you can still use any other 12 G. cartridges that are the most available if necessary.
Excellent point.
A 20 gauge packs a big kick for a 100# woman who’s never shot before. A shotgun with the shortest barrel allowed in your country (not sure your laws) is a good home defense weapon but it’s a liability if one can’t handle it. A .38 revolver with 6″ barrel is a better option, and even that might scare a 100# first time female user. The revolver’s not as sexy as a semi-auto but it goes bang every time, where a semi-auto can jam if it’s not held properly (called limp wristing, or “girly hold” over here).
If you’ve never shot before you’ll need to practice for safe gun handling, accuracy, operation of the firearm (how it works, how to use it in self defense which is different than sport (trap and skeet) and hunting use.
Buy 500 shells for the 20g. 500 rounds for the .38
My daughter at 12 was fine with a 12 ga with suitable loads. You just need to start out with light loads and get in the practice. Both 12 ga and 20 can be had with light loads, and even with those will be much more effective than a .38 revolver at in-home distances. Easier to hit with too – I’ve done a lot of shooting with both.
Dan …… And a 12 G. Shotgun is much more impressive from the business end. It spreads.

What is it?
Ron DeSantis. Did u watch the video? He seems to be pushing vaccine rhetoric onto the people of Florida now. He says he took J&J himself. I’d love to hear your opinion on the vaccines. Have you done the research on them? And as far as President Trump goes, he seems to be proud of Operation Warp Speed. My problem is that many of the readers on here seem to be against the covid vaccines, even calling them poison. Do you trust Ron DeSantis and President Trump given their praise of Operation Warp Speed and covid vaccines?
I would think your first question, Truthseeker, might profitably be “Who do I Trust?”
I Trust my Doctor.
I Trust my God.
I Trust my Reason.
I Trust certain friends on
issues where I know their experience has made them wiser than me. Like Biochemical Research or Firearms.
On some issues (like Covid) I trust my wife. On other issues not.
On many issues I Trust DeSantis based on his deeds. On other issues, like Covid I doubt his conclusions, though I believe he came to them honestly.
Similarly Trump, on most issues important to me he has delivered on The Deal, on other issues I doubt he chose the Right People to listen to.
I can’t deliver on Absolute Consistency and Congruency. I live in Cognitive Dissonance.
So I don’t expect absolute Consistency from them.
BTW, I got a Truth Seeker on my prayer list from a ways back. Time of the California Fires.
Does The Big Mick mean anything to you?
For all I know or remember after I prayed for you I might have hacked you off.
I’m clueless that way.
Will you be answering my question Sundance?
The tyrants will NEVER let this go. They are having too much fun controlling us as our prison guards.
This is NOT GOING TO END. There will be new variants more dangerous than before. Endless government edicts and criminal prosecutions for anyone seeking their lost freedom to choose.
They will keep saying “trust the science” as they change the science on the fly.
Australia’s government appears to be trying to out-virtue-signal the US government.
Another case of countries become sycophants to keep the Big US Teat in their mouths.
That Teat is going to run dry before long.
The Crocodile Dundee thing was either a myth, or such people are completely off the grid and we are seeing the feminized leftist city dweller side.
nateesa …… Australia does want to remain America,s Ally. ….. For the security of both. …… But Australia pays its own way . ……. There is no Teat.
Saudi Arabia is beginning to look normal.
No kidding. You’ll find just as much freedom there as anywhere else lately.
Always when you comply.
Negatively when you obey unjust laws.
Positively when you choose obedience to God over self.
Aussies gave up thire guns without a fight. They know what they have to do now.
Mike in a truck ……….. We lost Semi-Auto,s. only …… We have more and newer fire-arms than before the ” Buy-Back “. …… I have nine. …… I was a Licenced Gun Dealer and Authorised Fire-Arms Identifier at the time. ….. I was also cleared by State Police and A.S.I.O. to sell Explosives. …… I am an actual expert on this. ……. I am absolutely sick of the constant statements that Australians do not have guns.
Well, the Swedes were sane … at least about this:
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/07/swedens_nolockdown_covid_strategy_vindicated.html
“Alone among the advanced countries of the world, Sweden followed the sensible policy for dealing with a highly transmissible virus with a 99%+ survival rate, dangerous mostly to easily identifiable groups – the elderly and those with co-morbidities. It allowed the population at minimal risk to carry on life as usual, and restricted movements and otherwise protected only those at elevated risk.
…
“What are the results of Sweden’s much-derided laissez-faire policy? Data show the 7-day rolling average for COVID deaths yesterday was zero (see below). As in nada. And it’s been at zero for about a week now.”
Gustavus Adolphus has stopped spinning in his grave long enough to say, “Well done my progeny!”
As we learned from the Russia hoax, the cover-up is much worse.
Wait until they realize these vax aren’t working and are in fact causing the variants and creating super-spreaders.
And it’s 5, 6,7
Open up the pearly gates
Well there ain’t no time to wonder why
Whoopie, we’re all gonna die.

This whole thing with France, the U.K., Greece, Italy, Australia, and the United States is becoming more apparent by the day that collusion is at play on the world wide stage. The lying here in the United States is so blatant that nothing is credible anymore. I believe this virus issue really needs to be addressed from another angle.
Or from the end of barrel.

More Than 5,100 Breakthrough COVID Cases Reported in Mass.; at Least 80 Have Died
NBC: The so-called breakthrough cases — where fully vaccinated individuals test positive for coronavirus — have so far been rare, but are possible.
As of July 17, a total of 5,166 breakthrough cases had been reported to the state DPH. Of those, 272 people were hospitalized and survived. Of the 80 people who died, 23 died without being hospitalized; 57 died following a hospital stay.
I thought Aussies were fiercely independent. I guess I watched too many Mad Max movies.
No kidding. The bloom on that facade died fast.
We in Poland are saying that about you Americans. Stones and glass houses, ya know.
Those of us with any however limited awareness are well aware of the collapse of our country and a lot of us admire Poland for refusing to play along with a lot of the current world madness. Were my uncle Lokai still with us he would be apoplectic.
Here at home, we have another exhibit of covid-related insanity in the form of a dramatic doctor spinning some scary yarns. Oh, and did I say that she’s full of it? Yeah, well she is.
