If we keep quiet, they cannot hear our thoughts
(On the other hand, news from home is an important part of our cultural, human makeup. We want to know what’s going on. For me, though, I cannot stomach being lied to, and manipulated, night after night, in my own living room – sins of commission and omission.)
(. Our own governments have declared: ‘Damn the People! I wish I may never hear of the People again!
‘Damn their stupid “human rights”!
‘Damn their pathetic little shops and businesses!
‘Damn their bustling cities and restaurants and laneways and sporting events and theatres! Cancel the Commonwealth Games and ruin local villages. Let the streets be empty and the shopfronts for lease!
‘Damn their notion of bodily autonomy!
‘Damn their heating and fuel bills!
‘Damn their bucolic countryside and wreck it with wind farms!
‘Damn their privacy and freedom of movement!
‘Damn their ideas of freedom of speech!’)
(Today, they hear from us in polling. Without survey data, they are deaf.
They hear from us via data collection. Credit cards, GPS data, loyalty programmes, you name it. Cash is anonymous. Phones left at home don’t ping on the towers tracing your route.
They hear from us in our reactions to the problems they orchestrate and the stories they manufacture for consumption on the Six O’Clock News. One can’t react to a story one hasn’t heard.
Today, they hear from us via QR codes and scanned products. Shop elsewhere, shop local. Grow your own. From beanshoots on the window sill to a veggie patch and a chook run, every mouthful generated off-grid is an extra empty field in the database. Likewise every bunch of radishes traded for a couple of eggs never makes it on to a revenue statement.
They hear from us as we beg permission – to install a gas cooker (soon to be banned in the state of Victoria), to camp in a National Park, to walk beyond the limits of a dog beach or to breathe fresh air unencumbered by a porous, bacteria-laden rag strapped to our face. No more begging.)
(Social media is monitored and censored. Conversations on a windswept beach stay private. So long as we stay quiet, they cannot know our thoughts.
So what, left to our own devices, are the things we should be preoccupied with? When not being told by the government and the media what to be excited by, or afraid of, what do we truly value in our brief stay on earth?
If one doesn’t already know, then surely the first thing is to search for it. If our country has disowned us, we clearly need a new country. C S Lewis wrote of this desire in The Weigh of Glory")
Anger over major change to Covid and flu vaccine programme
In a bid to 'go back to normal', invites for Covid and flu jabs won't be dished out to those aged 50 to 64 in the UK, marking a step change in previous rollouts during the pandemic.
"Telegraph reports that the some vulnerable adults will be eligible for a Covid booster, along with some vulnerable children.
Ineligible people won't be able to buy coronavirus jabs privately, unlike for flu.
While there would be a 'clear health benefit' in vaccinating low risk adults this year, it is unclear whether doing so would meet 'strict cost-effectiveness requirements', it said."
I'd love one of the trust the science brigade to explain this to me in relation to the shit people went through the last 3 years with the vaccine hysteria.
The blockheads need to change their title to anti " anyone with a different view to us", as its the theorist not the theory that gets ridiculed. Post on here, get ridiculed nextdoor, post on vax ( rip) get ridiculed next door, dare to post twice on government warning get ridiculed next door and step out of line and post a few real life experiences on cashless...yes you guessed get ridiculed and labelled right wing scaremonger next-door, when it's quite clearly not. Good job I know what matters in life, and it ain't virtual sneerers.
