Liars every one of them

Daniel Andrews walking from his car to Parliament without a mask.

If Covid really were a deadly disease that might strike anyone down at any time, no one would forget to do everything they can to prevent infection. The reality is that near enough everyone in our governing class understands that it is pretty well all a pretence with virtually no danger whatsoever to their lives and health. There is some, but it’s minimal. You are far more likely to be in a fatal car crash than to die from Covid. 

So the picture is from this story: Premier Daniel Andrews probed by police over possible mask breach. They take us for fools, and in that they may be onto something. Like with this in the US: ‘Squad’ member Rashida Tlaib is branded a hypocrite for dancing MASKLESS at indoor wedding in ‘substantial’ transmission area after scolding anti-masker Sen. Rand Paul.

Same woman who was overheard explicitly stating it is only a joke: ‘Squad’ Member Rashida Tlaib Admits Masks Are Political Theater, ‘Just Wearing It’ For Cameras. Just like at Obama’s 60th birthday party: THEY LAUGH AT YOU: Obama and Liberal Elites Spotted Maskless at His Swank Birthday Gala on Martha’s Vineyard as Rest of the Country Hunkers Down in Pandemic.

Everyone knows this is true: List Of 30 Studies Showing Face Masks Are Useless Against COVID-19. But you will do as you are told, so Daniel Andrews will face a $400 fine.

Are we stupid, or are we stupid!

    Daniel Andrews is looking stressed and a bit puffy around the face. Hope he doesn’t have a heart attack cause he might not get an ambulance for a few hours.

    I try and save myself from the madness of crowds.
    I don’t wear sunscreen to save you from sunburn nor my seatbelt to save you in an accident.
    This is a time when the luddites are in charge of Science.

    I had an appointment to get the J&J jab in a week, but I think I’m going to cancel it.

    Imagine if there were a 99.7% chance you wouldn’t sh!t your pants but we’re forced to wear diapers just in case.

    My favourite is the recent clip showing some spokesperson preparing to go on stage for a White House press conference. He is filmed, unawares, from the side. He is not wearing a mask, but when his cue comes, he puts the mask on to walk on stage, then takes it off at the podium

    The longer this goes on, the more certain I am that when we get back to ‘normal’, an annual flu season will be declared, just like daylight saving, during which masks will be mandatory. After all, we know they work!

    I actually think this is a deliberate distraction squirrel so Dan can say “See, I’m not above the law!” while burying the real crime – hotel quarantine decisions leading to deaths.

    Just when Andrews faces investigation on corruption, the media can distract the plebs and show them poor over stressed Dan. He’s been working so hard to protect us all that he made a simple mistake.

    Why, he’s human after all and just one of us normal people and not above the law at all. He even has to pay a fine the same as we do.

    I feel much more sympathetic towards him now!

    Who’s cutting Dan Andrews’ hair? Barber shops are shut down.
