Did I say that? Man, I talk some poetic shit... Bone Thugs Baby, Warren G Regulating... Old schoolin it B...

Its not actually a halo... Its an aura of Smug..

Besides, Camela said she'd of told people to refuse Trumps vaccine if it looked like Trump would have a second term. Its all Political. Its all Theatre. Its a Brave New World...

"I believe in women's right to choose, my body my rules. But everyone must take the vaccine!"...

I wonder if grave stones will read "Died from Covax"...

Exactly, how is it the unvaxxeds fault when most cases are double vaxxed. Oh, they must have caught it from the unvaxxed. So vaccines are only susceptible to Covid from unvaxxed people. I see now, its transmission is Political. Ah, Covid is a dirty Liberal, duh. The vaccines don't work, the masks don't work, the lockdowns don't work and all the government's lied about everything. Go Fuck Yourself!

Are we now seeing Police whistle blowers after they beat and harassed people during lockdown... They say it's because the Public are being lied to and mistreated... Yet it comes as governments are beginning to mandate Vaccinations for government workers.e After all, the Criminal Justice bill ensures that criminals be protected and if Cops are unvaccinated then surely one can't make an arrest whilst maintaining a social distance. 'You there, criminal... freeze. Now, put your hands behind your back and umm, you put these handcuffs on, and arrest yourself'... - Seems Pigs only care about their own Bacon... Like I said during Lockdown. We wont forget!
-
To be fair, all the bad shit we know about these vaccines... At least the right people are taking them.

The liberal sense of morality is so infantile and simplisticly binary that it allows the simple minded to understand and express confidently its defined virtues whilst recognising and attacking its simply defined enemies. It allows the young to overlook any nuance or overlap and divine their morals as simply black and white. Left-wing Liberalism as Lenin said 'Is an infantile disorder'.

So how can we save democracy?I One major challenge is to persuade the electorate that the constitutional obstacles that stand between the expression of the people’s will and its enacting are actually the best protection we have against the tyranny of the many over the few, or of leaders who claim to represent all while really standing only for themselves... That and a well funded Militia.

And educate your kids at home too. Surely someones Mum or Dad can teach a few families kids and maybe even different parents for different subjects. Think, 1960's hippie commune.

European populist parties show the same disregard for the rule of law, arguing that nations can and should unilaterally tear up legally-binding transnational agreements if that is what the people demand. In many countries, this unimpeded democracy is proving to be disturbingly popular. Vladimir Putin’s popularity in Russia is in part because of, rather than in spite of, his disregard for the rule of law, which is seen as simply obstructing the muscular implementation of the popular will. In Hungary, Viktor Orbán’s disregard for constitutional constraints and processes is considered a source of strength. His phrase “illiberal democracy” is as good a name as any for the form of government Aristotle warned against. Some on the hard left also have little time for the rule of law when they demand the instant denationalisation of railways or the “clamping down” on excessive corporate profits. There are ways of doing both that follow due process but many are not interested in what they see as such niceties. Yet in a functioning state, businesses, like individuals, need to be able to trust that the rules of the game will not be changed by decree overnight because a government announces that “the people” demand it. The greatest example of the rise of degenerative democracy is, of course, Donald Trump. Trump has no concern at all for the international rule of law and often, it seems, none for the national either. His campaign promise to have Hilary Clinton locked up if he won was classic example of democratic demagoguery. https://www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/philosophy/aristotles-thinking-on-democracy-has-more-relevance-than-ever

The danger we face today, however, is that some people have lost patience with the rule of law and yearn for a purer form of democracy. This is what populist parties—left, right and centre—all promise. They tell the electorate that the only reason governments don’t give them exactly what they want is that the political elites are in cahoots to defend their own interests and those of whom they rely on to maintain power. All talk of “rule of law” or “balancing competing interests” is just a smokescreen for not doing what the people demand. So when populists argue that they offer a return to a purer form of democracy, they are in a sense right. However, Aristotle would caution that when you opt for this kind of democracy what you often get is demagoguery instead: an all-powerful leader who imposes their will without restraint, empowered by a supposed mandate from the people. https://www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/philosophy/aristotles-thinking-on-democracy-has-more-relevance-than-ever

I think individualism has been taken to the extreme. If you see it in term of the expression of Ego then certainly we have seen individualism expressed to the highest degrees. But in societal terms only the upper classes have the freedom and thus sovereignty to be individual. Commoners are so common to the elite, that by this very nature they have always seem us as an indivisible group to be ruled en masse. We've always just been numbers to them, except of course when Hillary Clinton individually names victims of Trumps insults... Then we are individuals to them.

A Democracy has no laws, only guidelines. For a Democracy is mob rule, the majority decides fate. If the majority decide someone should be locked up or a constitution hung for reasons agreed upon by the majority, then the law is broken and laws as in nature can not be broken, only rules can. Now ask yourself... Who rules the Mob? Democracies have been quicker to abuse and corrupt than any Monarchy, and the Universe, my child, is a Monarchy.

They did give birth in a government facility and will send that child to government schools.

Maybe the Sacred Feminine in Aquarius. Ghandi did say that western women will lead the world.... Good he didn't mean Nanna Pelosi. My, my, my Grandma what big teeth you have. All the better to eat you with my dear..

Divide & Conquer. Mixing of race, that they will rule over all the Nations of the World. I guess is up to us to find common ground. Lest we be ruled by despots by virtue of our tribal inequities.
-
The chequered square. Where do you are stand?
-
Maybe the vaccines don't do shit, maybe it's all an illusion to divide us for war...
-
Thanks Thought, I'm already all in though...
-
Ah, Divide and Conquer. Good show... Well America, your time of reckoning has come... The Great Work is almost complete. I think in the US the Constitution states 20% of the population must be lawyers.... They've a lot of lawyers. What British lawyer would advertise on a bus bench?
-
As Political symbols go. They wear masks, we refuse vaccines... I think they want to be sick, like a victim somehow...

'Sing with me. 'It's all Theatre. Its all Political, It's a Brave New World'.

The Australian government sound scared. I've seen some pathetic speeches. Biden is babbling about moon men. The CDC is running US politics and have demonized the right as the cause for Covid control measures. A CNN reporter said 'we have already won the war, its over for the right'. Ted Cruz responded 'They've won. I don't remember that gun fight' and there it is. The demonisation of 'gun owners' as the now cause of covid control measures is as Political as it gets, corrupt and Liberal. The ADL say antivaxxers are rascist and supremacist. So all non-whites are vaxxed huh... Yeah, think before you talk shit Anti-Defication-League.
