I'm expecting an actual pandemic soon, the catalyst probably being the mass vaccination campaign

At this point I don’t doubt it, anything is possible. I just hope there isn’t some super evil agenda, I’m holding out hope they are just pushing to fulfill pharmaceutical contracts with the US government. That’s the ideal motivation for us, to get everyone to join the phase 3 trials of these concoctions
 
Man there is listening to music but have you ever listened to music on the vaccine? Sounds freaking great! ... My eyes have been opened. (satire m'ter fkrs!)

Well it seems a bit strange that the same people pushing for global vaccinations also publicly state that there are too many people in the world.

This is either an evil agenda or they can't make up their minds.
 
I certainly hope we don't have a worse pandemic. Though this IS a pandemic, it's about the best case scenario for one. As a result of the narrative around this one, I fully expect that if we have one where the death rate is actually substantial, we are still going to have a bunch of people shouting that it's a hoax and refusing to take any precautions and refusing any vaccine. Then we'll be really screwed.

I don't see it as strange. There ARE too many people in the world, but it's still pretty heartless to not try to do something to prevent unnecessary death. No matter how much better it would be in some ways if the global population was substantially reduced, I'll never get behind killing innocent people to get there.
 
You ever seen a one dollar bill.... ON THE VACCINE??

Thanks Xorkoth I was looking for a picture like that to add, from that movie. Glad the humor was not lost. :)

This isn't really a pandemic. Just because they've labelled it that in order to control everyone and progressively alter the world order doesn't make it so. There was no excess death in 2020 so hardly a pandemic. Unless you mean it's just like every other "flu pandemic" that hits the world every few years without much fanfare. Then in that case you'd have to agree that all of these new rules and restrictions have nothing to do with allegedly combating the spread of a deadly virus.

There isn't too many people in the world. That's just one of those beliefs that many people hold but they've never actually bothered to examine where that belief came from and whether it's true or not. Objectively there's more than enough space and arable land, and especially if governments promoted the average citizen to grow some of their own food and be more self-sufficient in general. But instead governments genetically modify seeds so that people can't grow their own food even if they want to.

Pretty obvious what's going and what has been going for a while now, but it's too terrifying for most people to accept. They NEED to believe that (overall) governments are doing things to protect them. It's like finding out that your parents are evil and abusive before you knew any better. Not an easy or comfortable thing to accept so people resort to denial and justifications.
 
At the start, had it been handled differently, and not politicized by both parties, and the current president at the time had actually taken it seriously, I think we'd be in a much better position. Albeit Trump might have won a second term so maybe not. Either way both parties hoped on this quick af to weaponize it against each other as well as using it to test how far they can over step boundaries before citizens say "whoa, uh no, that ain't happening". Speaking for the US only here btw. I certainly don't buy into the whole "covid being planned" conspiracy. I do believe that a lot of wealthy and powerful people were quick to find ways to take advantage of the situation though to further increase their wealth or strength their power spot. The unfortunate division that has occurred in the US has both sides acting out in extremes. Politicians, instead of holding high the qualities of true leaders, have sunk so low as to play into their sides voters. Republicans spreading the most insane bullshit "theories" as fact and truth and democrats are skirting on draconian law with mandates and pretty much villainizing anyone that has doubts about getting vaccinated. Yes some, er most, of the anti-vax crew are delusional in their beliefs but theres also a grouping of people that aren't antivax but also have zero trust in their government and big pharama. I'm mean neither one has the greatest track record when it comes to public safety. Personally I haven't gotten vaccinated yet not because I'm antivax(grew in a military family then joined the military so I've likely had every vaccine known to humanity) but I have reservations about something that was rushed out so quickly and the government is pushing hot and heavy abs and anyone that brings up any concerns or mentions potential for side effects or people that have come forward with side effects are quickly dismissed/silenced and made to look crazy. Even Google has manipulated its search results to hide any information that could be considered negative towards the vaccine. I'm not so sure I'd go as far to loose my job over it but for the time being I've no problem waiting as long as I can for myself and my kid.

But honestly the virus and vaccine are the absolute least of our problems. The housing market is out of control atm and housing is the most expensive I've ever seen it. And from what I've been told it's a country wide issue. Companies like Blackrock are buying property in mass, over paying asking prices even, just to turn them into rental property. On top of that this back up of cargo ships is about to slap everyone in the face with some harsh reality. A shortage of truck drivers and dock hands have slowed crate unloading by dangerous amounts of time. Because capitalism turned us into mass consumers we sent the majority of our production overseas meaning it all needs to come back here by ship. Well that ain't working so well. You ain't seen crazy until shelves are empty for a couple weeks. Wait until the middle to upper middle class are learning what the struggle is really like down here in poverty town. But they'll drop that socialism/communism stick real quick and start yelling for free health care and affordable housing with the rest of us. Wait till people are out Christmas shopping and there's nothing on the shelves. Bet, there's more than one story this year of someone getting stabbed, shot, or beaten because two people were fighting over the last item on the shelf. I don't know if I wanna be excited or scared. A large economic crash seems inevitable though from this point in time. Remember back in 08? The only reason it wasn't super bad is because China bailed is out. But this year China is dealing with its own crash so likely they ain't gonna be bailing us out again.

My advice, if you have guns, stock up on ammo. If you got a basement/storage space. Start filling it with non perishable dry foods and bottled water. Get to know you town/city/neighbor and have multiple escape routes planed out. If you can get out of the city and into the suburbs, do it now. If you ain't got a pot to piss in and zero survival skills, or you're at least not ready to commit murder, now would be a good time to start studying. Take advantage of the internet now just in case there's an infrastructure issue or a cyber attack. Just at least be prepared in case shit goes down and have at least a couple weeks worth of food stored up.
 
I realized something today. I'm pro-vax and anti-lockdown. So, perhaps it doesn't make sense for me to judge anti-vaxxers. I mean: pro-vax/pro-lockdown people judge me... and I don't like masks either. We have the highest cases in Melbourne we've ever had right now, but I still don't wear masks half the time I walk into a petrol station or a bottle shop or whatever. Pro-vax/pro-lockdown/pro-mask people judge me for this. I'm not the sort of person people are likely to say something to for fear of retaliation, but I can see it in their eyes... So who am I to judge, I guess?

The truth is: I'm not 100% doing the "right thing". My father-in-law is super pro-vax and even he bends the rules sometimes if he wants to see his granddaughter. Nobody is perfect.

This year was the first year in over a decade that I didn't pick mushrooms. In twenty years, I've missed maybe two or three seasons. I pick mushrooms in suburban parks and universities, etc. I pick them by the side of major roads... No way in fuck I'm going to do that with the cops questioning everyone like the fucking Gestapo.

Lockdown has made drugs difficult, generally. How many people are going through hell because they can't score? How many people have died shooting cheap shit because they can't drive into the city to get something decent?

My job is fucking hard. People burn out all the time. It has a very high suicide rate. One of the highest of all professions. We are just underneath vets and dentists.

Lockdown makes my job nearly impossible. On top of that, I can't see my family. My daughter has had basically no interaction with other children for three months. She's developing behavioural problems now, that we could have totally avoided. I have mental health problems. Her mum has mental health problems. We need support from family, but we can't get it. I'm fucking sick of this. We're all 100% vaccinated.

I had my jab on the second day I became eligible. That was 6 months ago. I was in the first 3% of the country to be vaccinated. So - when they do boosters - I'm going to be in the first 3% to get a booster. Thankfully, we will have data from Israel and the US/UK and other countries by then. I don't want to be anybody's guinea pig.

I'm fucking sad. Arguing about this virus on the internet doesn't change shit. I'm still in lockdown. This is all just venting. Everyone is venting. We are taking it out on each other.

I'm truly sorry if I offended anyone along the way. There are tears that want to flow, but I can't let them. I need to swallow my tears and keep waiting for the government to loosen their restraints. I can't lose my shit now.

We can see the light at the end of the tunnel, but I'm not convinced that it isn't a mirage.
 
Good post. I'm the same way. I don't wear a mask everywhere. I got vaccinated and had covid. I wear masks when it makes people uncomfortable. Certain gas stations I typically go have a clientele that doesn't wear masks and I don't generally there. I do in the grocery store and some other places.

One thing participating in this forum has taught me, the main thing really, is humanizing people who share diametrically opposing viewpoints, and understanding where people are coming from and that they have reasons. This is extremely important as it helps me to become less judgmental. I really try not to judge even when I'm trying to tell someone I think they're wrong. I look back and notice a big difference in my ability to do that from the early days/before posting in here, to now.

I'm really sorry you're suffering so much. It sucks that Australia is so restrictive even despite vaccination, my country may be a shitshow but at least we are living semi-normally now. I'm especially sorry your daughter has to experience this at such a young age. I feel really bad for all the kids right now.
