After seeing what happened in the midterms yesterday, I'm more and more convinced that people are dumber than at any point in history. After seeing people get manipulated by the MSM, get coerced into taking a poorly-tested vaccine, and mask up and social distance based on some fear mongering, I have little faith in humanity.

What Australia and the US did to Novak Djokovic ruined tennis history. Hope they let him play in January, but why would anyone visit their penal colony at this point? https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/update-on-novak-djokovic

I have spent too much time wrestling with the uninformed and concerned about the health of those who took the jab. After seeing the sheep continue to get in line, the governments continue to push them and the outcome of the midterms I have decided that everybody has a right to die from their own stupidity. I am no longer going to tax my emotions or mind as there’s nothing I can do anyway

People can no longer think. I still see people every day wearing the stupid mask like it helps. We have been conditioned to love abortion, love untested vaccines and fear life. Imbeciles rule. The higher death rates are a feature not a bug.

It's not stupidity in the traditional sense. There are plenty of intelligent individuals. See also Bonhoeffer. It is the mass formation/cognitive dissonance thing. Also, people are unwilling to admit when they have screwed things up and continue on the sunk cost logical fallacy.

More vaccines that don’t work will fix it

I seriously wonder if Australia is 96% vaccinated. I think many governments have lied about the percent vaccinated to pressure people to get vaccinated. See Professor Norman Fenton discussing the UK data (https://youtu.be/ccWOMtmH65U).

Anyway, I had planned on vacationing in Australia, but visiting a police state isn't high on my list. Oh well.

Apparently, the term "down under" has taken on new meaning.

The cult doesn't go away on its own. And based on recent elections here and how incuriously compliant Aussies have proven to be, it's never going away. Nobody will ever be held accountable.....except for the unvaxxed of course. Clown world is here to stay until socioeconomic fallout gets to such a painful place it finally forces an awakening.

Australia DOES lie about vaccine status in Covid deaths. NSW vaccine reports misclassify vaccinated as unvaccinated to inflate death statistics (but not hosiptalizations) in unvaccinated

And yes those people are dumb - in addition to being dishonest

No one has mentioned it yet but did anyone else feel “he only looks like your cousin who tells you every time he switches antidepressants”? Scathingly accurate lol.

I have been on Facebook recently to try to sell some stuff in local groups. In the few minutes I’m on there I’m still seeing people I know talking about getting their booster, or where they can get one. Remarkable. The absolute lack of curiosity to find any data on this, just following along with the (taxpayer funded) Pfizer commercials that run endlessly in PA. I have also seen several people talk about taking Paxlovid and rebounding. But -IT wOuLd hAvE bEeN WoRsE!

Australia is gone.

If they had their choice they'd float the continent back towards China and reattach.

Maybe that's a good thing. These were the people who lectured us about the "science," tried to get us fired, and openly wished for us to die on social media and even in public places. Their irrational fears destroyed our economy and damaged school children. Some of them are now dropping like flies, yet they still want more shots and masking. Best thing is for them to remove themselves from the gene pool.

I'd be willing to bet that at least half the deaths in Australia classified as COVID are actually due to other causes, including the vaccine.

I live in Queensland, Australia. Our climate here is much the same as Florida. Summer is hot and humid. As we head into our summer, the Queensland Government has moved us to “code orange” because of an impending surge in cases. Code orange is not a mandatory requirement but they strongly encourage masks, something I’ve refused to wear since day 1. And of course the vaccine push through the muppet chief health officer in Victoria, Brett Sutton continues despite him saying recently that, “two, three doses. It’s doesn’t matter as it’s not stopping infection.” I love my country. I’m a truth seeker and patriot. I ran at this years federal election. I speak out as much as I possibly can, and I lead with my actions. I’ve lost many “friends” that I now call “people I used to know.” But I live in alignment with my values and integrity. I feel that we have much more extremism to endure, both far right and far left. Yet I will never stop attempting to bridge the gap and find middle ground with the majority. It’s up to us, not the government as we know. Let’s not drop it. And a big YAHOOOPPO to your man De Santis for his landslide victory.

We might be proud of our intellect, but we are ruled by our emotions. I told my kids to use their heads, listen to their heart, but trust their gut.

Easier advice to say than to follow. We gaslight ourselves into doing "the right thing" and deny our instincts in order to go along with the crowd.... that's emotional decision making.

Is Australia doing the same thing about reporting deaths "with" covid as opposed to deaths "from" covid? In Idaho, USA where I live, my doctor told me the state health department mandated that all persons who die "with" covid are counted as covid deaths. Even car accident or shooting victims were counted as covid deaths. Somehow the Federal government was/is tying funding to the number of covid deaths and so the hospitals and doctors are incentivized to call all deaths "with" covid as covid deaths. Our 96 year old neighbors died withing 48 hours of each other from causes incident to age, but on the death certificate covid was listed as the cause of death. Their son told me that and when he questioned the doctor, he said, the feds will pay for your parents funeral if it was covid. The son told be his parents had covid almost two years before their death. Seems pretty dishonest to me, but the doctors did it without consulting the family.

This is not related to the story and it's sad what ignorant Australia is become a total Totalitarian state. A CDC report found the rate of related deaths rose by 26% in the first year of the pandemic here in America.

At this point, I think the vax fanatics should get a booster at least once a month. Keep getting boosted!

59, never had a vaxx, never had covid! My 60 yr neighbor just gof off a carnival cruise and HAS COVID! She blamed it on the cruise, she's had all 4 vaxxes...I told her not to get anymore and she just blankly stared at me. And yes, I'm telling ppl "never had a vax, never had covid".

Much of the vaccinated population remains caught in group think. They are unwilling to accept facts that contradict their personal choice to get vaccinated and boosted. (I know a few people who just won't open their eyes). I suspect there is a lot of psychology behind this. As we all have experienced at some time, it is hard to accept that you screwed up, and you engage in denial. I think with most of the "leaders", it's political. They double down on stupid out of ego and pride; few politicians can do self-reflection and admit that they got it wrong. So, an entire country continues to injure itself despite having all of the information it needs to change course. Stunning!

Governments are the dumbest entities on the planet. Keep getting boosters every 3 months and hope it all woks out. After all, they are safe and effective...the CDC/FDA says so.

I was a senior doctor in Australia (with an epidemiology degree to boot) and lost my job and my registration for questioning the COVID narrative. I then got harrassed by the police for questioning my MP, and finally arrested and jailed at a protest. Nevertheless, every day my 'vaccine hesitancy' looks more and more like the correct decision. Meanwhile, just this week, I heard the following from 2 of my former collegues.

1) (Quad vaxxed heart surgeon) has been off work for a week with 'COVID'

2) (Coerced and not happy double vaxxed plastic surgeon) has just seen his 6th 'turbo cancer' (melanoma) for the year, when normally he would see one.

I’m an Aussie.

Can confirm: the lunatics have taken over the asylum.

Case in point from recent, personal experience. Two days ago a woman in a local community Facebook group I belong to put up a post explaining that the GP clinic at which she works is looking to employ a full-time registered nurse. All I did was politely ask her if the clinic would consider interviewing my highly experienced/skilled unvaccinated RN friend (with natural immunity). The poor woman lost her job at the end of last year due to mandates and is now mowing lawns to make ends meet. The administrator of the FB group kicked me out of the group!

The lawsuits are building. Over 1000 lawsuits filed over employer vaccine mandates. Injuries will be high on the list of damage done. It's just a matter of time now, the lawyers smell blood.

It would appear that the collective IQ of the Australian population is increasing, one chump at a time. Ditto other countries. How many 'sudden-and-unexpecteds' will it take for the penny finally to drop?

People can’t die fast enough for sociopaths? Sorry, I can’t wait for more people to die in New York Michigan Wisconsin and California for reelecting the scumbags who have crushed their lives these last near three years. Stupidity should never be rewarded, it needs to be selected out by evolutionary ways…

Thank you for letting me comment, why I continue to do so is beyond any rational thought, I have to accept this is an addiction and I need hard-core withdrawal. Lose the phone?…

Australia is an interesting Control group due to its tyrannical lockdowns and high vaccination rates. They had very few Covid cases before the mass vaccinations started. So they can't really blame Covid for the excess deaths (In any case the new very large Israeli retroactive study on almost 2 million subjects before vaccination started shows that there was no difference in the incdence of myocarditis and pericarditis between those who contracted Covid and those who did not) We also know from analysis of UK 2022 data that the excess deaths are NOT from cancer (which has a slightly negative excess death rate) but from organ involvement - primarity heart and brain. So lockdowns also can't be blamed for delays in daignosis and treatment of cancer.

The "ositive" thing is that because of all of the above and more, they are now having to invent excuses which have very little credibility : SADS, Climate Change, Christmas Tree allergy etc. Even uninformed people are starting to see through these fantasy "explanations" and the spotlight is turning rapidly onto the very real "correlation" between excess deaths and "vaccine" usage with an additional global "correlation" between highly vaccinated countries and the rate of excess deaths.

I am mortified to say I'm, from Pennsylvania based on the election results. We got a career politician for governor who just loves power, maybe more than the current dictator. Then we get an enfeebled moron for Senator. Elections have become popularity contests with the winner being the most "likeable" candidate. People did not "like " Trump so they voted for our enfeebled moron in chief who was more likeable as ole Joe from Scranton. How's is that working out? Most voters do not look at the issues beyond the TV commercials and have no idea the consequences of their vote. Now we have a US Senator that can't understand spoken words and has trouble speaking. The quote which I believe is Thomas Jefferson "We don't always get the government that we want but we always get the government that we deserve". It really boils down to this, the average American voter is an idiot! This is not a statement that I am in any way proud to make.
