It’s not “pandemic legislation”
There is a “can’t-happen-here” attitude even as it is happening. A just-in story in The Age: New pandemic legislation passes Victorian Parliament’s lower house. The legislation has nothing to do with medical care. It is entirely about Daniel Andrews taking power into his own hands. Here’s the story. Victoria’s new pandemic laws passed State Parliament’s…

Guest Post: Cassie of Sydney – Covid Witchiepoo
Over the last eighteen months Australia has been transformed into a nation consumed with Covid fear and overflowing with Covid hysterics. This hysterical fear has been fomented by various Australian governments, federal and state, as well as bureaucracies, both of which have deliberately nurtured and cultivated fear amongst the populace through manipulation, panic, and coercion.…

Feminism, modernity, and the new mudsill theory
The news back in August that the state of Texas has outlawed abortion post-fetal heartbeat is welcome. I don’t entirely agree with the drawing of the line at a fetal heartbeat (or viability, or pain) understands the matter completely but I welcome it nonetheless as a step forward in the development of premises that when…

Mater’s Musings #36: This is how it starts
Pfizer’s request to roll out COVID-19 vaccines for Americans as young as 5 years old cleared a key regulatory hurdle Tuesday, after a panel of the Food and Drug Administration’s outside vaccine advisers voted by a majority to back Pfizer’s request. OK, this passed the panel, 17 for, 0 against and 1 abstention. One of the panel members (in…

Get vaxxed Fido or keep out
I am getting used being part of the underclass in Sydney. I supposed that’s what happens to the Untouchables in India. You get used to it. Before you know it, being barred from your club for which you are still paying dues, walking past the crowded local pub, buying takeaway coffees sipped outside on whatever…

Guest Post: dot – Submission re Digital Identity bill
The Digital Identity framework does not pass any reasonable cost-benefit analysis. Nor does the framework show any understanding of how e-commerce or digital currencies work. -The PPSR is a white elephant, why won’t this be? -Service providers have engaged in e-commerce for over two decades. -Why can’t banks and shops collaborate to use QR codes?…

The Fascist Government of Victoria
Ever wonder how fascists were able to run one-party states in Europe? Come to Victoria and find out for yourself. Daniel Andrews is the stupidest clod I have ever seen in politics. He knows only force and never reason. He just tells people what to do and threatens them with absurdly high fines and now…

Campion’s primer on atmospheric physics
“Net Zero” is pointless. There is no CO2 “greenhouse effect.” Basic physics proves that. CO2 absorbs outgoing longwave infrared radiation (heat) as photons at the 14.8 microns frequency (Planck’s Law). The temperature of absorption at 14.8 microns is -80 degrees Celsius (Wien’s Displacement Law). Minus 80 degrees Celsius is 95 degrees lower than average atmospheric…

Twenty-nine years is a long time in politics
It’s clear that focus groups and polling have demonstrated to the Libs that they must first show up in Glasgow and then must support the 2050 Zero Emissions target. This they must do irrespective of what they personally believe if they are to win the next election. But that is to win the moron vote…
