Every single Anglosphere country jettisoned all of the principles that made them special to begin with... all because of hysteria around a virus with a >99% survival rate.
- civil liberties
- human dignity
- freedom of speech
- non-discrimination
- fairness
- tolerance
Lame.
These are unique freedoms, rights, and principles that Westerners used to physically FIGHT for, to the tune of millions of casualties.
And the descendants of those people just gave them up instantly, because they are scared of the coof.
Still scared.
Embarrassing.
If you had told me that places in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Western Europe would bring back SEGREGATION, open discrimination, and make it 'illegal' to merely go outside... And that millions would support it, I wouldn't have believed you.
Now, I see clearly.
I grew up in Saudi Arabia, where the values, principles, and structures are different to the West.
Now, the West doesn't have a leg to stand on with many of their criticisms.
Heck, they even embraced mandatory face coverings and segregated public spaces. 🙈
'Science'... Sure.
FREEDOM, TOLERANCE, and EQUAL TREATMENT under the law used to be unique to the West. And it took a long time to get there.
None of these broadly exist anymore in any Anglosphere country.
Gone in under 2 years...
That's tragic to me. Shouldn't have been possible.
People always think it's 'different' when they do their version of discrimination.
But it's just the same thing over and over, with different 'in groups' and 'out groups'.
And slightly different mental gymnastics to rationalise it.

If they had just called it a 'therapeutic' instead of a 'vaccine' then this whole thing would have been far more honest and far less divisive.
Don't underestimate the hypnotising power of a single word.
I'm worried that people will be hospitalised with broken bones and exhaustion, given all the mental gymnastics and goalpost shifting they are being forced to perform to explain what is going on. 😂
Of course, if they had called it that then the entire narrative about 'doing it to protect others' would not register in people's brains... And thus mandates would be completely off the table.
You're dealing with very clever social engineers here. Not incompetent fools.
Many Western countries are run by hateful, spiteful, vengeful nerds.
Wannabe dictators and mini tyrants, who kept their true intentions masked for years under pretty faces and 'liberal' sounding buzzwords.
I'm glad their masks are coming off... Literally and figuratively.
I think for a long time, we believed that Western leaders were more kind, open, and benevolent than the obvious dictators in Africa and the Middle East.
But they're just more slick with their corruption and authoritarianism.
The system kept them in check. Not their hearts.
In previous years, these politicians simply did not have the right conditions and perceived 'authority' to be openly hostile and tyrannical.
As soon as they got access to that, they showed their true colours.
A good % would be vicious dictators, if given the opportunity.
I'm so happy to see this, but it also makes me want to scream because I've been banging on about this for 2 years straight (and way before that)
ALL the 'advice' has just been masks, jabs, stay home, masks, jabs, distancing, masks, jabs, jabs, boosters, stay home, jabs... 😐
The average person now thinks 'staying healthy' merely consists of covering your face in public, being weird and antisocial, and taking mRNA injections every few months from Big Pharma.
Good grief... 🤣
Lose some weight. Do some exercise. Stop eating garbage.
