Lock us up again. The unknown deaths are taking over. Is there a vaccine for it?

Will our premiers front the cameras every morning to give their condolences to loved ones or nah?

Good find Udo.
Seems as if JP Sears is like an alternate version of Jordan Peterson - initially comes across as reputable (Sears mocking wellness, Peterson with his apparent desire to help young men) but then the truth comes out.
Both are shysters and snake oil salesmen, slyly treading that fine line so as to maximise their appeal and marketability, and hide their less palatable facets.
By the way, that quote "“If you’re ready to have a ravenous appetite for impossible standards and dogmatic feelings of victimization, then let’s get started on what you need to do to become gluten intolerant" was interesting.
If you sub out gluten intolerant for anti-vaxxer it starts to ring even more bells.
Right Burls?
You cheeky little pearl-clutcher ;)

I’ll give you three easy reasons:
1: the vaccine does not stop transmission or catching the virus
2: if you’re fit and healthy covid is not a danger
3: governments lied and coerced to manipulate the population into taking the “vaccine”

I don’t need anymore reasons to take something that I don’t need and is also voluntary

“Some may indulge in the kind of therapeutic nihilism that classifies everything as either perfect or useless…”
Jeez, that sounds so familiar.
Binaries and absolutes really do seem to be one of the hallmarks of the modern world.

Hey Burls, I was going through my extensive collection of vinyl the other day and I came across this one that I'd forgotten about.
Is that you?
All handsome and channelling Hemmingway??
And surely you've got more than just two moods, I mean, there has to more to you than just outraged and argumentative?
Would've thought you were more glass barby than wooden pipe though :)

Listened to Joe Rogan podcast today that was only a few hours old with Bret Weinstein, going to be interesting to see if the media still have a melt down like last time as was pretty heavy on alternative views on Covid & vaccines ect

Personally i like Joe but dont agree with him on a lot of he Covid/vax views.

dunno...

ask kerryn phelps maybe?

I'd say its going fine... democracy in process and all that...

I know you much prefer central control, over the top censorship, and the quashing of minor voices and dissent etc...

- the contemporary 'left's' drift to authoritarianism basically -

but yeh, voices heard, intense debate, merit, and the battle of ideas are still in vogue

(for some of us!)

Settle down there sypkan you’re sounding pretty cooked there and we’re only a few days into the new year. Here’s a novel thought, why don’t the good ole boy RWNJs in the GOP think about serving the gummies that voted for them and get on governing the country instead of splitting a once (long ago) good and solid centre right political party down the middle.

https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-04576-6 In Australia you now need a referral to pathology to get a PCR test . If the doctor is then going to prescribe Pfizer’s wonder drug for a positive test result , the 5 day window might be cutting it a bit fine .

i wouldn't get too excited, that's a visa agent, ...selling visas...

those in the know say it ain't so

ya agent mate is drawing a long long (salesman) bow, from the dropping of PPKM rules to the dropping of vaccine mandates

two totally different things
