Anything is better than Australia or Canada right now
Funny that's exactly what I was just thinking. As bad as Australia was, it could be worse. Canada is becoming one of the circles of hell in Dante's Inferno.

10,000+ people were "euthanized" last year in Canada. Half of those people wanted to live but death was preferable to life in Canada. Think about it.

Remember, when the Nazis did it they were monsters. When Canadians do it then it is just a thing that Canadians do. Kill the weak, old and sick. Then adjust the Overton Window on who qualifies as weak, old and sick. Maybe they will offer a chance to renew at carousel like in Logan's Run at age 30. Then at 16. Then at 5.

Escaping Australia was horrific and incredibly expensive. Most people just couldn't understand how bad it was getting in Victoria when I left. It was full-on Soviet state with whispers of much worse things coming. They were building all kinds of confinement camps when the pandemic was OVER.
Good riddance.

Australia has it's share of problems like any country, but the state throwing you in a "confinement camp" for no reason is not one of them (unless you're an illegal immigrant of course - then all bets are off!).

Now of course, the state does sometimes confine people on mental health grounds like anywhere else. Sounds a more likely reason for Cleve to flee to me than any imaginary confinement camps.

You don't even know what you don't know. That never stops you from weighing in on a subject.

Weren't you the guy on antidepressants at one point? You throw around that mentally ill thing quite a bit. Guess what the word for that is.

What do you say about a guy in another country telling you what is going on in your country when he has never even been to that country? Guys like this are experts on just about everything.

Huh? They're building a quarantine facility so in a theoretical future pandemic they don't have to rely on the leaky quarantine hotel model they used this time round. It's not exactly a concentration camp.

Talk about not knowing what you don't know...

Huh? Good thing I'm an Aussie then as I'd hate to be a foreigner telling you the country hasn't gone entirely to the dogs just yet. As I said, Australia isn't perfect but fleeing it because of imaginary concentration camps and that you can't go into a corner store and buy a semi-auto is retarded. Good luck in the land of the free...you won't be missed.

Locking people up, whether in hotels, their homes or "quarantine camps" for catching the sniffles is not OK under any circumstances.

You do understand the long-established medical principle of quarantine right? It doesn’t work if everyone is allowed to wander around at will.

You ignored the second part of my statement, presumably deliberately.
if you’re dumb enough to think quarantine shouldn’t be applied under “any circumstances”, especially on an island which has natural advantages when it comes to disease control, there’s no point arguing with you.

Do you believe that the Australian government has used this power responsibly? Quarantining people by force over a virus that's asymptomatic to mild symptoms for most individuals is a dramatic overreach and abuse of power. I'd argue that such an abuse of power isn't even about covid at all, that it's a social experiment conducted just to see what a population will allow its government to get away with before people revolt in the streets.

You should have said so. You and your countrymen are the dumbest race of white men who have ever inhabited the earth in all of recorded memory. You're pulling a train of Red Chinese soldiers around the block and everybody is the caboose except you and you still think everything is just peachy. It's like Ned Beatty in the love scene in DELIVERANCE except Ned doesn't realize he is getting butt-raped by a diseased hillbilly. He thinks he is at a birthday party.

They're literally running Australia as a proxy of the Chinese government through their quislings ("smart cities") but the Australian people think it is 1978 and they are doing fine. You are too stupid to be tolerated in the modern world and face it, nobody was ever going to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. They weren't deporting the best and brightest from Britain. When your nation is melted down into slurry and sprayed across the new agricultural fields of the Chinese farming collective as fertilizer, my only worry is what that might do to the soils.

The instant the wheels of my plane left the tarmac the average IQ of Australia plunged from 95 to 56 so I was hardly the one who lost out. I was losing out by living there for 25 years with one of your hideous horse-faced women (Frank Sinatra said they looked like mules except with bigger teeth.)

The only man in Australia who didn't realize just what kind of mistake your people made in giving up their arms was likely you. When everyone saw the police beating old women to death they caught outside their homes and using tanks fitted with ultrasound to bake them in their own skin, even the slowest Aussies started to understand why the right to bear arms is the most important right of them all.

"Imaginary concentration camps." I would tell you that you're going to get what you deserve but you'd just be too stupid to understand it when it happened anyhow.

Do you ever ask why when the lockdown was ending, Dan Andrews would ask for the godlike power of an emperor and make the legislation vote him new emergency powers that would permit him to do whatsoever he liked to anybody he liked forever, even having the power to decide if "the emergency was over" for all time?

The Australians don't know history. To be honest ... they don't know much about anything whatsoever concerning anything that might help them to survive being turned into a graveyard by Red China. In world history, nobody that dumb has ever held onto to those kinds of natural resources for much longer than it took somebody else to take it away from them. You Aussies don't know it but you are at the end of your history. You were soft in the head to begin with but by now you've got what amounts to jello made from cat sh*t between your ears.

Correct! Any response but support for these measures is a criminal offense in Australia and that's just not for the duration of the emergency. It's a permanent feature of Australian government under which they give themselves the legal right to hack into your computer or even invade your home while you are out to plant evidence into your computer to convict you of any offense for any reason. They don't need anything but ad hoc judgement to invoke this right at any time. They can plant child porn on your computer or evidence you are a major dealer in methamphetamines. This is now the law in Australia. It's like Eastern Europe during the height of Soviet power except technically it was never legal in Eastern Europe.

As I said, there's stupid. Really stupid. Finally there's Australian.

You're a low testerone cuck desperate to give the impression you're a chad. No chad would go along with these measures. In reality you're a weak insubstantial wretch desperate for the sake of his vanity to pretend he's Crocodile Dundee.

I cannot imagine a person further from the Australian national character than Crocodile Dundee. That's why the Australian police shot the real Crocodile Dundee dead twenty years ago when he refused to turn over his arms. Unlike you, that guy had balls. Your vanity makes you think you must be Luke Skywalker. You don't have the balls to reverse the government on anything. They'll be bulldozing you into a mass grave and you'll still be claiming this is a reasonable measure given the circumstances.

Remember, the lockdown was the least of it. "Violations" of the rules no matter how tiny resulted in documented footage of cops putting chokeholds on women and throwing them to the ground, punching the elderly, pepper spraying them and giving out mass beatings with truncheons to men already on the ground. To people who discovered they had gone out without a legitimate excuse, like getting some fresh air.

In Canberra they used tanks with ultrasound and microwave devices to burn people protesting peacefully. The Australian government turned the nation into a dystopian hell and basically held people hostages until they got their death clotshot. Now Australia has the highest excess death rate of any nation in the world. You can tell who got vaccinated. They're dead or dying.

Please tell me you got fully vaccinated and boosted. It will put my mind at ease.

Don't forget those tanks were also invisible... :roll:

Yes we're so suppressed here there was recently a state election in Victoria where the lockdowns were the harshest in the nation by some degree and the incumbent government was returned with an increased majority by the oppressed people despite the opposition running a hard anti-lockdown stance. They must have used those orbital mind control lasers again hey Cleve?

Some of you folks should learn to read between the lines a bit, Lord knows you're old enough.

Cleve may have his colourful/graphic way of putting things (which incidentally, is for your benefit [laughter] as much as his), but that's just his literary version of a patina. Need i explain this further, lol?
Stop getting butthurt and consider the facts for a bit.

After all our collective history, can there really be a single person out there reading about concentration camps having a comeback because "for your own good" (arbeit macht frei!) and honestly believe things are going well? That "reasons" not only validate this policy, but actually ensure it's harmless, incapable of setting a new precedent? Or rather, the repeat of one?
For fuck's sake, there's so many children in here.

i) Getting butthurt over a random's virtual pixel postings = immaturity at best
ii) Being so immature, a random can totally halt your thinking process = r.e.t.a.r.d.

* also not incidentally, lol, the occupants of the concetration camps? They too received medical "supplements". For their own good. Later on, they were showered with some even more potent ones too. Science! It evolves too, so maybe nowadays, no one needs to have their head shaved prior to receiving supplements.
