    I don't know if you are familiar with the Nazi (COVID) passports they
    are trying to roll out. They are designed to track everything
    the bearer does. This
    means if you get the vaccine you get into the tracking machine, whereas those who don't take the vaccine stay out of the tracking machine. It makes no fucking sense.

    Yes, I am familiar how Australia is turning into Nazi Germany. Sadly, the population has given away their rights to the government over the years and
    now you can see the fruit of their efforts.

    All over a fucking cold that can be treated with cheap, easily available
    drugs but instead everyone was lied to in the name of power and profit,

    A fun thing is that immunosupressed people seems to be screwed up with
    the virus so much, vaccine or no vaccine, so I don't buy the "we would
    be wasting an organ" argument.

    I am immnocompromised and had COVID-19.

    Within four days, I was fine.

    It's all bullshit, if you ask me.

    The current Australian plan is to have everybody install a digital passport on their phone, and every "insecure event" install a scanneable code at entry.

    Upon arriving at an event, you are supposed to run the digital passport against the scanneable. The passport application then reports to the relevant authorities where you are and when. In theory they have a cop or guard on entry so you can only go in if you swipe your passport and report your movements.

    IN theory this allows the government to track people who has been infected. If somebody tests positive for the virus they can hunt down and quarantine anybody known to have been in contact with him in the last days.

    There are many problems with this approach beyond the basic "mah privacy" stuff. The first one is that as only vaccinated people gets tracked, the mechanism is useless, unless you were to asume vaccinate people has non-trivial probabilities of getting infected anyway - in which case the passport is useless for other reasons.

    The second problem is that this level of tracking can be used to produce loads of circumsptancial evidence. "·See, my political opponent was in to the same bar where that drug dealer was found. Surely he was doing shady drug deals!" The Citizen FOur documentary already made the case as to why something like a Metrocard can be used to build cases against people with such constructions, but with national tracking databases it just becomes sport.

    Spanish authorities are recommending people to take the jab around 10 days after beating COVID.

    Then they wonder why there are conspiracy theorists doubting the authorities :-)

    MRO at Dovenet says he experienced transitory focus/memory loss after beating the virus and he is not the sort who takes the jab. My aunt also suffered the effects for some months after beating it, before vaccines were available at all. If anything, I don't think "jab overdose" is the unique source of long term problems.

    It's a wild ride. They filmed interviews with the lead of the
    CIA while the chase/capture event was happening. He says
    something like "We'll get him now. He's trapped. We have the
    means." But.. in a later interview he's embarassed and fuming
    (in a don't show any emotion way.)

    Yup. You were fine along with the rest of the 99% of the population. I don't care if this was the black plague and was 99% deadly vs less than 1%. Still no reason for any mandates. People have the right to do as they choose and take responsibility for it.

    These idiots that try to shame others for not getting the shot trying to say they are a public risk is complete crap. If the shot works, these morons should have nothing to worry about. They are so deep in fear they can't and refuse to see reality.

    BTW, this is coming from someone that did get the shot - but only because I had no other real choise. That in itself is where the evil lives.

    China learned they don't need to use nukes to work their control over the world. No one should be doing any business at all with the Chinesse government. I have nothing against the people of China.. I actually feel sorry for them.
