Sometimes you just see something and its so surreal you dont fully absorb it.

Texas just set up a anonymous phoneline where you can report people you think might have had an abortion to the authorities and get $10k if they go round, you are right and that person gets arrested.

This is the kind of thing you'd see in the most paranoid parts of the USSR, North Korea or China. Reporting deviant neighbours.

I genuinely think I read an article last week about the Taliban knocking on doors based on phone calls.

What the fuck is going on in that country. Even the Irish have legalised abortions.

The Right has lost its fucking mind, because it thinks none of these new laws apply to them!

I’m reminded of the poem “And then they came for me”

Some **** watched The Handmaid’s Tale, so we found one SCOTUS (I shit you not!) and now the Right is trying to enact it on a national scale, with a 6-3 majority on the Supremes to foil any Constitutional questions.

If the Midterms follow history, the Right will OWN CONGRESS for Biden’s last 2 years in office and LITERALLY NOTHING will get done!

Then, they’ll run on “Biden said…but he didn’t do it! Dya know who we need in 2024?!”

Boggles the fucking mind, but it took 230 years to figure out how to undermine and overturn the notion of checks and balances, but here we are!!!

Unless there is a pendulum swing that stops HARD in the middle, thus country is fucked for another generation.

Do we know if this law only applies to residents or citizens?

Pop over once or twice a year hang out at some shady places frequented by young people and you wouldn't have to work and have an all expenses paid holiday.

Sounds almost like the American Dream.
 
If you think our politics are bad, you should watch our (men’s) football side. Can’t take on a man, can’t pick a pass, can’t cross, couldn’t trap a ball if it was made of feathers, and the only reason they can defend now is they’re playing an El Savaldor team that averages 5’2” I think.

City has maybe spoiled me rotten.

A sign of the China virus invading our everyday lives.

over hear in Dictator Dan land known as Victoria we are encouraged to dob in a neighbour who dares to have a barbeque with people in the household actually having fun or leaving the home without a mask on for a stroll up the street with their dog or on their own.

this is when we have 40 cases in hospital and 1,000 active cases of covid in a population of 6.5 million and over 60 per cent of the population with their first dose.

Whether its because they are seen as climate change deniers or anti vaxxers who knows but if we are not careful its a sign of things to come and we have to push back on this garbage looking after ourselves rather than government telling us what to do and when all of it draconian and not helping us live better lives despite covid.

When people are thrown to the ground by police when they are on their own outside minding their own business and not wearing a mask or wearing one properly when its known the eyes are also a source a spread you know we have gone way beyond the health message and gone into communist overdrive.

At least you had more shots on target fog , quite enjoyed the game but when you are in lockdown for over 200 days you will take anything (LOL).

It's funny my son had to use eye ointment as part of his recovery on another part of his body. Shock? Horror?

Not really the same thing is it?

A medicine prescribed by doctors that has an additional use to treat recovery on another body part vs a drug that hasn't passed studies and hasn't been prescribed.

Are you aware of the explosion of these idiots needing to use poison control centres because they gave themselve doses for large animals?

Well, there's proof you didn't bother watching the video to see where that particular medication used.

Actually I did. But I also read about before I watched it and trust the sources more than one person on a three person panel "providing the balance" .

Interesting question that will be answered shortly, what happens when a grifter takes an anti-parasite drug?

If you catch covid why
don't you take a low dose of ivermectin and see how you get on...

So Rogan - surprise, surprise - not taking adequate precautions - contracts COVID. And now he "throws the kitchen sink at it."

I've said this before... Darwin is at work here. Fucking retarded idiots are going to die at higher rates than commonsense people believing in science and experts. We're golden in maybe 1000 years from now... sigh.

Joe Rogan - self-proclaimed expert on virtually any topic - taking an "if it's inconvenient for me, it's a lie" attitude - well, karma that he contracts COVID.

Rogan though is hugely influential.

My brother - an honor graduate from high school, a college graduate with a degree in Chemical Engineering, a worker in the high tech silicon valley industry... is somehow entranced by whatever offhand, completely unsupported remark that this guy states.

The best thing that could possibly happen is that Rogan somehow experiences a sea-change of opinion - maybe he comes near death due to COVID - and wakes up to reality.

So, as you know then, Rogan took a multitude of drugs and the one everyone's losing their minds over is also used to treat illness in Africa. Good enough for them, but not anyone 1st world?

Anyway, if he was over covid in 3 days, what's the issue? I haven't heard him tell anyone to do what he did, unless you can show me otherwise?

Interesting.

I've never heard Rogan describe himself anything other than a "moron" who wants to learn. He has access to some of the world's greatest minds courtesy of his wildly successful podcast. I'm pretty sure he would have talked to some of them rather than just chancing by himself.

So, he gets covid and is covid free in 3 days.

What has he done wrong, then?

This Rogan argument is really really stupid!
