Spot on mate. It DOES get taxing after a while.I've got a lot to catch up on in this thread, but let me mention: if this is to be successful, it's going to be a long term thing, and that means practicalities. People need to be fed, shifts need to be established so people can sleep and clean themselves up and then come back and switch and keep constant vigilance. There needs to be prisoner support, legal aid, etc. The left has whole organizations (paid for by you and I) dedicated to these kinds of logistics (as anyone who used to be involved in left-wing politics can attest to). We don't have that, but need to make it work as best as possible.
Control freaks freak out at the loss of control.
Probably only 1,000 real people liked it.Unbelievable. The reframing into their favourite peasant control word. The blatant lie.
How did 10k people like this?
Many people however are pointing out how undiverse the protests are. Seems the third worlders aus imported en mass won’t protest.
Framing the protestors as racist is an admittedly perfect way (but also sickeningly under handed and dishonest) for this establishment mouthpiece to attack them.
The symbol is from the 1987 Hollywood blockbuster Predator. It's about an alien race coming to earth to hunt human beings for fun and games. But in the end (spoiler alert), the Predator alien has to commit suicide because Arnold Schwarzenegger outsmarted him using primitive wildman tactics.

This is meme worthy. This is the only kind of statement - simply and clearly stated - that has even a faint chance of sinking into the heads of the masses.It is not about covid.
It is not about climate.
It is all about control.
Had a verbal disagreement with a workmate yesterday.
“you’re gonna get fired if you don’t get the vax mate, did you read the company email”
“You’re not going to be like those Nazi protestors in Melbourne bashing people are you, fucking idiots are why we are still in lockdown”
I can relate to the character in Orwell’s 1984 becoming disgusted with the proles he was trying to free from bondage
For them, it’s all about punishing their ideological enemies. It doesn’t matter what the facts are, how hypocritical or tyrannical their politicians become. Leftists think they are living in some Hollywood trope where the geeks triumph over the mean bullies. It was a similar story with the gay marriage debate. The main goal all along was just triggering conservatives and especially Christians.Most people are just out of the loop but the interesting thing is with lockdowns people have had enough time to think and research, but depending on their character they will find the information they want.
I'd also be interested if there are any WA posters on this forum and what it's like there? From memory didn't they also shut down Perth over a few cases like here in NZ? I think it might be an interesting place to see what develops. I can guess that the AFL final will bring some kind of supposed Covid outbreak.
Yes in this case this makes more sense. It was a little sloppy on my side to share that mis-informational tweet, the two logos don't even look that similar.The symbol is from the 1987 Hollywood blockbuster Predator. It's about an alien race coming to earth to hunt human beings for fun and games. But in the end (spoiler alert), the Predator alien has to commit suicide because Arnold Schwarzenegger outsmarted him using primitive wildman tactics.

any chance of some anti Andrews/lockdown songs and gestures from the crowd?It’s a dead certainty mate. 50,000 fans there today to watch one of the biggest sporting events on our yearly calendar. The AFL will once again be heralded as heroes for managing to put on the greatest show on earth against all of the odds. Monday morning headline....... multiple fans test positive for rona.
Now wouldn’t that be lovely.a
