Steaming your nose and mouth when you are already sick, that works, it is a good temporary relief but people confuse that with a “cure”.

I can totally believe it can relieve congestion, and open pores passageways and shit like that…but I simply don’t think its going to “kill” any sort of virus :smiley:

So apparently they are going to rewrite the Human rights bill, so that they can force you to take the vaccine. Neil De Beer of the UIM party has already written a partition against the bill and said he will take it further if need be but he won’t let them change a bill for a vaccine when it should be a choice

  • “Apparently”
  • non specific ”they”
  • “change the Bill of Rights” like it’s as easy as changing your underwear? - yeah not going to happen without a significantly larger public outcry
  • “force you to take vaccine” - like “they” did to those Aussie school kids last week? We can’t even force taxi drivers and BMW owners to use their fucking indicators properly, but we’re going to “force” people to have a needle stuck in their arms? Come on man.
  • “de Beer… has written a (petition)… will take it further” - if there was any validity in this, you’d think he’d be mentioning it on his very active Facebook and/or Twitter accounts. But nah, not a word about vaccines at all, never mind changing the BoR - at least in the last month. And that’s not “apparently” - I just checked. I guess you could say that I “did my own research”. :grinning:

I have no idea where you are getting your information from @jaydogg86, but I think you need to give your sources some serious critical analysis.

He has a tiktok account uncle Greg.
He made a video about it

I am aware. Didn’t think it worth mentioning because it’s secondary to his other social media accounts.

Why would he post his thoughts about such a significant “apparent” attack on the entire nations civil rights in a maximum 3 minute video clip on a site known for memes and idiots dancing alongside their moving cars?

We’re not talking about the new dance fad here - we are talking about changing the Bill of Rights, a fundamental piece of our democracy. You don’t announce your opposition to something that significant on fucking TikTok. You write op eds for Daily Maverick, the New York Times and The UK Times. You hold press conferences with every imaginable international news agency present to report on the “apparent” potential change to the nation’s constitutional structure and physical forced violation of citizens basic rights. It would be a frikken huge story of global significance.

And yet… crickets.

Other than an alleged video on TikTok.

Links to this video where Neil de Beer clarifies who this “they” is, specifies exactly how “they” are going to change the BoR, and states that “they” are going to force people to get vaccinated. And also to his petition to “take this further” so that I can get more information on it all would be appreciated.

This is the modern social media pseudo politician’s tactic.

  1. Think up something that might happen, even though there’s no evidence that it is going to happen.
  2. Make a tiktok video about how this thing will definitely happen, how you should prepare yourself (typically by joining local like minded groups, hoarding weapons and tp), and how they will go to work to prevent it.
  3. Let the video go viral.
  4. Watch your social media clout go up.
  5. If thing doesn’t happen, claim campaign success. If it does happen, claim I-told-you-so’s, but that never happens.

I’ve got a colleague that shares videos like this often, and I’ve started seeing this pattern. It is very worrying, because it will eventually cause some real information to get lost in the poor signal to noise ratio.

Maybe I should make a video about it.

@jaydogg86, is one or both of these things the stuff that you heard de Beer talking about? I’m guessing it is and that the way it’s been interpreted has been conflated.

There’s no “forcing people to have the vaccine”, but there is a lot of talk (and a lot of confusion!) about what employers can or cannot potentially expect from employees in certain sectors. Can workplaces in the health sector for example require all employees to be vaccinated against COVID or not, basically. One side of that debate is “yes they can” but no one is suggesting forced vaccinations. If you aren’t vaccinated, you’ll have to provide regular proof of negative tests.

Whichever way that debate goes, I guarantee you it won’t be snuck into law through some quiet underhanded government conspiracy. There will be a lot of coverage, news, talk about it. As there already is.

There’s also the entirely separate debate on whether government could constitutionally implement a mandatory vaccine programme for the entire nation. That discussion is being written about today as well…

The opinion of those writers is that “yes, constitutionally the government could mandate a national vaccine programme under the general “for the public good” principle”. There wouldn’t even need to be a change to the Bill of Rights. And again, should government decide to change its current point of view (no mandatory vaccines) it would not be able to do so quietly, in dark back rooms, without anyone knowing about it until it’s too late. And again, if a proposal to change the current status quo so significantly is made, it will be reported on extensively, and challenged at Constitutional Court level. We’ll all know all about it as it happens.

Are you posting with your phone still, or has your chip embedded itself into your brain already so that you can mind post?

You can do that?!?

Maybe it’s a feature that only unlocks after 2.0

Did you guys get to choose which vaccine you got?

I went to a place I knew had Pfizer, so technically yes. If you follow what the SMS’ tell you, no.

Just do a walk-in if you have a preference.

The place I’m at has a queue for Pfizer and a second queue for J&J. I picked Pfizer

I am a realist and cynic at heart with frills of positivity embroidered around the edges of my soul. COVID is going to be with us … for a very long time until they find a cure all for a rapidly mutating virus.

All we can do is fight a holding action with the current vaccines.
