Constructed ignorance. Indeed.

There is an emptiness here now that is hard to put my finger on. Inescapable. I feel it everywhere. Everything looks the same, and yet everything has changed. I long for the Australia of old, but accept it is gone, fond memories of a country I once knew. "Not to know is bad. Not to want to know is worse". ~ African proverb

Yes, indeed, there is an emptiness. The body is there, but the soul is not. They killed our wonderful country, in broad daylight, but nobody saw anything. I miss her.

Canada too. Heartbroken. Can only discuss it with a select few...even then itтАЩs done carefully.

I'm not careful anymore. I had a neighbour tell me I should be 'liquidated in a camp' for being unvaccinated and I simply have zero fucks left to give. (Excuse my Irish).

"I had a neighbour tell me I should be 'liquidated in a camp' for being unvaccinated"

We've all learned something about what lurks just below the surface of hearts and minds, haven't we?

Each censorious person that joined the mass human trials, did so out of fear for themselves. They considered their own safety and then, they considered their own pain over the possible loss of specific personally-known individuals. The only people they are concerned about, are those whose loss can inconvenience them or cause them to feel unpleasant emotions.

Cloaking their self-interest in words associated with selflessness was a way to avoid facing their own selfishness and admitting that they care more about themselves than any remote "others."

There's nothing wrong with self-interest, but there is something deeply wrong with subterfuge.

In one sense, that neighbor did you a favor when they admitted their murderous sentiment; you now realize exactly how untrustworthy that person is. These things are good to know, lest we trust those who cannot be relied on during a crisis.

Brilliant comment. I am actually thankful for that neighbour who said that to me: he was the spark that lit my revolution.

Are they still holding that line? I am boggled with the people who believed that the unvaxxed would kill everyone, and still believe it despite the shiploads of data and research revealing the truth of it all.

This was early on in the piece. Not sure what the punters think right now.

I literally just laughed out loud reading your comment. This is nuts!

Aaron, I hear ya. Hailing from lower mainland, BC. The demoralization is almost complete now, and most of folks I know are living in a world deep, deep under the propaganda sea. All focused on the laser pointer red dots. Canada has a Teflon-coated PM, a pretty much destroyed energy sector and, at the same time, unsatiable logging of old growth forests for the purpose of... burning wood pellets abroad. I'm an "old school" (i.e., outcomes driven...) post-secondary educator, and I find my students, Canadian and foreigners, very much soulless.

I understand. I understand every single day. IтАЩm in the USA. ItтАЩs a vibration I feel. Everything I trusted and took solace in is gone. EXCEPT GOD. No man can ever change that. And TPTB (evil) knows that!

Yep, that was their plan. These evil bastards need disorientation and devastation in order to fold everyone into their Great Reset One World Government Marxist feudal utopia where we can eat bugs, own nothing, never resist, and expire on command.
