In case anyone is wondering, @C_Stroop addresses why churches refuse to follow covid measures.

Because Grace church exceeded the limit again today. Are there any repercussions?

cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…
In case there is any doubt. The church pastor know exactly what order he continues to flout.

albertahealthservices.ca/assets/wf/eph/…

Just like Hawaii vacations. Apparently some people have more rights than others?
Maybe if the government pulls their licence to operate until covid is over or their parishioners are vaccinated?

I’m sure getting tired of covid doubters making life difficult for the rest of us & receiving polite letters and minimal fines for putting the public’s life at risk!
Note: it was primarily Q’Anon and Evangelical Christian extremists that stormed the Capitol Building in US.

I wasn’t aware that Christian faith is synonymous with make believe alternate realities and flouting law and order.
But here on their website is a rationale for their civil disobedience.

Kenney called it a bad flu and their own anecdotal evidence demonstrates covid is not that dangerous. Good to know they at least put some thought into it. 🤦🏻‍♀️😡

I know this thread is full of technical information.

But I’m encouraging everyone to read it.

Basically several nations have delved into Google’s business model and found it’s a monopoly along with Facebook.
This is what the anti-trust laws of the early 20th century were meant to prevent.

The result was to divide Standard Oil (John A. Rockefeller’s oil monopoly) into several smaller companies. That solution didn’t really fix the problem though.
Years later, US anti-trust laws are being lobbied heavily to be repealed and to allow unregulated monopolies.

As evidenced by this one article of many more just like it. cei.org/issue_analysis…

Looky look!

Pastor has been charged at Grace Life Church.

It’s taken long enough.

Now watch the claims of religious persecution abound.

Just like @C_Stroop opined. Evangelical Christians get to feel superior when they claim persecution.
I would not be surprised if this was their political goal all along.

That way the media amplifies their conspiracy theory rationale, providing some level of credibility and validation.

Media needs to be careful how this is presented.
Radicalized Evangelical Christians are putting the rest of the community in danger by refusing to abide by covid measures. Contempt for others’ health while spreading a deadly disease is not a religious right.

That needs to be made clear in media reports.

It is easy to compartmentalize each racialized issue and see them as separate.

Which is the only way one can say and believe “this isn’t Canada”(Alberta or Edmonton).

Because racism is all of the above. It’s systemic.

Which is what BIPOC have been saying for generations.
This is another one of those harsh realities mainstream Canadians prefer to rationalize away. You personally aren’t racist. You personally haven’t experienced racial hatred. So it’s difficult to empathize with those who have.

You are one grain of sand on the beach.
You’re open to new experiences and cultures. You may even have friends and relatives that are BIPOC. But you’re ignoring the dangerous and cutting shards of glass BIPOC must wade through to traverse the beach.

This is the action MLK jr. referred to as infuriating.

Here’s some transparency.

Former “Liberal” MP whose motto is transparency is currently criticizing PMJT and vaccination procurement.

Is she really a Liberal?
Look where she amplified her past concerns for transparency.

With Roy Green.

That’s not odd at all. Is it?

National politics tends to bring out the nasty in people. Power is an addictive drug.

To ensure power is gained or maintained by a minority interest group, several political tactics are used to “gaslight” or confuse the electorate.

This is demagogic populism.

This thread comes with an extreme warning💥💥💥💥🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Do not read it if you are triggered by child sexual abuse. It’s repulsive.

My skin is still crawling.
But this is attached to the end of the thread.

This is the part that’s important to see.

While correlation is NOT indicative of cause, it exists, nonetheless.

Years of “pro-life” advocacy.
I am not implying that pro-life institutions breed sick and twisted child sexual abusers.

But the repressive attitudes of extremist evangelical Christianity do result in providing cover for people with horrific behaviours and values.

This is criminal negligence. edmonton.ctvnews.ca/minor-sports-n… The new variants are quickly replacing the old variant which is waning.

Children are being used to spread the new variants. Physical activity produces more forceful exhalations and thus, more viral spread.
Kenney and UCP should be arrested, charged with criminal negligence, prosecuted and imprisoned.

But that won’t happen. Instead we will wait until criminal homicide can also be included.

This isn’t hyperbole. The new variants are that much worse.

I’m repulsed by this policy.
