On a personal level, I left this forum for various reasons, and have returned for my own reasons too which Im not going to go too heavily into here, but I can see that people continue to see things through their own myopic lenses, rather than looking at the bigger picture here.
The standard you walk past is the one you are willing to accept.
No jab no job, is an abysmal way to run things, and on a societal level, we need to think really hard about what we are doing to people. From a health service perspective, they cannot have un vaccinated employees running around the place either so it becomes a real conundrum and simply mandating it shows a government that is out of touch with its society, and anyone advocating no jab no job, should take a really good hard look at themselves.
When you start to resemble certain dictatorships that have occurred throughout history, it sets a really dangerous precedent for society as a whole. I have not been a fan of people and their opinions on these subjects for the last couple of months.
What I see playing out publically is downright appalling. Many of these people are acting in misguided ways to achieve whatever goals they are trying to, but I struggle to see any real common sense in any of this stuff.
Vicpol, to serve and protect. That includes democratic rights of the populace you are employed by.
The tradies have not covered themselves in glory (the attack on the journalists abhorrent to say the least) kicking dogs, ridiculous, and defending the indefensible. Its downright outrageous and Ive had a gutful. We are in the midst of a pandemic and its bloody serious, and people are too busy being weaponised by political motivations, and not fighting simply for their rights. Stop being tools.
Finally, victorian and federal government. This petty and draconian approach to shutting down conversations is ridiculous and actually welcomes the exact reaction you are fighting against. Have the conversations, and dont let the media drive it. Ive heard more information about all subjects covid by comedians on the ABC than I have from accredited doctors and politicians. Where are the think tank discussions broadcast on TV that go in depth about the precise modelling you are basing your restrictions on? Why isnt there more information out there, encouraging people to seek medical advise regarding the vaccine and NOT TO FOLLOW FING SOCIAL MEDIA!!!
I have similarly had enough of people claiming a lot about everything. Simple equation. You have questions about vaccination? go talk to health professionals. Get your answers, and then determine the appropriate course of action. The government have absolutely not provided any real information to people here about the vaccines, their manufacture, where they get. If you have to go searching to find it, you have stuffed this up.
Really really shocked that we have descended to the general level of lunacy that i see perpetuated as truths these days across society and have had a gutful of all the politicised rhetoric I hear. This is serious, or its crap, but either way, treat the public with the respect they deserve.
RANT OVER.
