Despite putting millions out of work, Australian government wants mass skilled migration

LOL I can’t read.

Over a million Australians were out of work before Covid lockdowns shut down Australia’s economy in 2020 and millions remain unemployed or underemployed today. As states reopen, employers are hamstrung by the fact that they have lost so many of their workers.

Among those millions currently out of work, you’re probably going to find people with the skills you would need. This is Australia, after all. Considering a government’s first responsibility should be to its own people, you would think that if skills were lacking, it would pump massive resources into training workers as quickly as possible.

If it is sheer manpower that is lacking, the Australian government could mobilise the considerable resources it has demonstrated are at its disposal throughout the lockdowns to transport tens of thousands of Aussies to the countryside to ensure that food doesn’t rot in the fields.

I must be missing something:

The number of migrants able to come to Australia each year could increase once COVID-19 border restrictions are eased.

Immigration Minister Alex Hawke has indicated the annual migration intake next year could be scaled up to help fill vacancies in key industries.

The only way this is going to be sorted out is if we fly in millions of foreigners so they can create jobs for us. Perhaps they expect us to all start up cafes to service all the new skilled migrants. I hope they like coffee. Or would that be imposing our culture on them?

When Perrottet succeeded Gladys Berejiklian this month, bureaucrats reportedly provided an incoming brief urging him to take national leadership on migration, while calling for a doubling of pre-pandemic levels over the next five years.

This week the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry called for a doubling in annual skilled migration to 200,000 over the next five years to prevent a “skills crunch”. Innes Willox, chief of national employer association Ai Group, followed with a plea for a restoration in the annual permanent migration ceiling to 190,000 (it was cut to 160,000 just before the pandemic hit).

Scott Morrison and his ministers have also been spruiking the boon from open borders, with the imminent return of tourists and students. Immigration Minister Alex Hawke believes skilled migration “will come back very quickly because Australia is a very attractive destination, and the government will ensure people are incentivised to come back”.

Australia is an attractive destination because White people still live here and it is a universal human right for non-Whites to have access to White people. Hence the panic when international commentators notice that Australia is turning into the same authoritarian third world shithole from which all those skilled migrants are trying to escape.

Not so attractive now, are we?

Bizarrely, we are told we need both skilled and unskilled migrants.

This does not make sense. You would think that if you can’t afford to wait for a bogan from Braybrook to learn how to manufacture a microchip, you can at least put him on a bus, spend five minutes training him to stick out his hand, pull an apple off a tree and put it gently in a box.

What this tells us is that there is no skills shortage. There is no unskilled shortage. There is simply a shortage of people who will do the work needed for the low price they want to pay.

I could go on, but let’s consider just one more thing. A genuine reason a worker shortage exists in Australia is that state governments are actively preventing many people from working through vaccine mandates. If the vaccine uptake is anywhere near the figures claimed this should not be such a big deal.

If they are pushing for millions of “fully vaccinated” foreigners to enter Australia in coming years, it is likely that they are actually preventing millions of “not fully vaccinated” Australians from going back to work.

In short, when it comes to vaccine uptake, they’re lying through their teeth.

Do not fear Covid Tyranny: Fear only God

I’ve been out of work and out of money a few times in my life, the most significant of which was about 20 years ago. My wife left me to be with another man, my business failed, my van’s engine blew up on the freeway. I was still a temporary resident in Australia at the time and thus not entitled to any Government handouts. Worst of all was my own conscience and guilt for breaking a vow I had held onto as the core of my goodness and morality since I was a child. Turns out I was a bad person after all. No better than anyone else. No more worthy of life than an bug.

It is very hard to motivate yourself to get the money to pay rent and buy food, when all you want to do is lay down and cry until you die. When you have no transport, no money for a bus fare and no trade skills or qualifications that are in demand.

One night I set off from my accommodation in Scarborough at midnight and walked 15km to an address in Mt Lawley. I arrived at 4am, where a man I knew had offered to let me help him sell things he had picked up from verge collections at the flea market. We had to be there by 5am (he drove us) and we stayed until closing at midday. He shared the “spoils” with me which resulted in having $60 to keep me afloat. My rent was $150 a week at the time. That $60 ended up having to last me two weeks and my rent went into arrears. I was able to buy potatoes, carrots, butter, cheese, bread and baked beans to feed myself and for half of the 14 days, my 9 year old son (the other half he was probably being fed lobster, caviar and fucking truffles with his Mum and new boyfriend with the stable job!) I found no other work during this period. Monday to Friday I walked for an hour to the job centre (back when they were still a thing), made my phone calls from there for jobs, then walked back home, where I went back to lying on my bed in a foetal position for the rest of the day and generally crying myself in and out of sleep. After approximately two months of living hell, I secured a job as a delivery driver of bottled water. It took 90 minutes on public transport to get there (I had scraped together enough money by then to just afford it). Eventually I dug myself out of the hole and put my life back together again.

Now I am facing hard times again. I have until the 3rd of January to take the Mark of the Beast or lose my job and be denied the access to most other jobs that exist. The Government thinks that they can push enough hardship on me that I will eventually capitulate or resort to violence (which will give them another excuse to bring more tyranny). But when you have already proven to yourself that you can survive in similar circumstances when your heart was full of nothing but emptiness, pain and self loathing, how easy is it to endure again from a position of righteousness and moral obligation?

It is no burden at all. It is a blessing. One I will give praises to God for, every day I wake up in the morning and lay my head down at night. The Lord will provide and He has, all the way through my life already. Most of the time when I was too blind and arrogant and selfish to even acknowledge it. There was nothing I could do to make amends for my sins which led me to the situation I found myself in 20 years ago. It is still a memory of shame and guilt. But it is also a memory of endurance and growth. Of maturity mixed with a little bit more humility than before. And since accepting Christ into my life, it’s also a memory of how the Lord was with me all along. Accepting my confession, forgiving my sins and giving me the exact amount of hardship I both deserved and needed to change.

As for you, dear reader, fear not if they are threatening to take your job, your home, your family, your liberty or even your life. You can endure. You probably have endured many things in your life already. That, after all, is probably what separates you from all of the cowards who are capitulating to the Government threats and orders.

They don’t know just how strong and powerful and free they could truly be, because their lives have been too easy for too long.

I have never wished hardship on anyone, but perhaps I should have. For what is our measure, what is our worth, without them? When I look around at all the selfish, self entitled gluttonous consumers in pursuit of “lifestyle”, too afraid of risking a smaller income to stand up against the greatest tyranny in the English speaking world in centuries, wouldn’t it be a blessing for them to be humbled and brought low? Wouldn’t they be grateful for it in the end?

So fear not hardship. Fear only God. Hold your head high as you refuse Satan’s mark and have your material wealth reduced. There are other things you can do to feed yourself. Other things you can do to secure food and shelter. Something always turns up for those who chose not to give in. For those who are not too proud to take the opportunities the Lord offers them.

The rest of society will eventually learn the hard way, that selling their souls didn’t buy them the security they craved. That their jobs, nice homes and cars were nothing more than a front for their insecurities. Insecurities that only grew stronger the more they tried to cling onto them.

DEATH THREATS issued against WA Premier who threatened to make people homeless

9

Western Australia’s Premier Mark McGowan has received death threats just days after the Northern Territory’s Chief Minister had to move his family away from their home due to security fears.

Both leaders have essentially threatened to make people homeless and their families destitute by imposing a vaccine mandates on workers:

Threats made against Western Australia’s Premier after the announcement of a vaccine mandate for workers are “disgusting” and “despicable”, the state’s health minister has said.

WA Police has confirmed it is investigating after Premier Mark McGowan received a barrage of calls and texts to his personal mobile phone this week after his number was posted on social media.

“I can confirm WA Police Force is aware of the threats and an investigation is ongoing,” a spokesperson said.

On Thursday, hundreds of protesters rallied outside Perth’s Dumas House in opposition to the vaccine mandates set to be rolled out from December 1.

On the same day, the state’s Joint Counter Terrorism Team charged a Huntingdale man for allegedly making death threats to Mr McGowan and Prime Minister Scott Morrison.

He was refused bail at Armadale Magistrates Court on Friday.

Note the Lying Press tactic of linking peaceful protesters with people making death threats. They deliberately place these two factoids together to imply a link when there is none. This has been a common tactic used against other Australian activists in recent years.

Health Minister Roger Cook told reporters on Saturday that police were keeping a close eye on people who continue to make threats of violence.

“And the police will make sure you’re punished for this unacceptable behaviour. It’s ridiculous and it’s despicable,” he said.

“We all have families. We all are caring for the community. And these people who’ve gone about this sort of behaviour are quite disgusting.

Is he talking about politicians who threaten people’s livelihoods by imposing vaccine mandates? Perhaps he is referring to police who slam their rifle butts into the backs of ordinary citizens minding their own business.

“And it needs to be stamped out and our message is to just say ‘stop it’.

Okay.

“Do the right thing. Get yourself vaccinated. Work with the community. We are all in this together and together we’ll get through.“

Is he using a random slogan generator?

“But not if we are going to attack each other and undertake this divisive behaviour.”

Says a man representing the government which is actively segregating one class of people from another:

Vaccination will be compulsory for about 75 per cent of Western Australia’s workforce, including in “high risk” jobs in teaching, hospitality and construction.

Those in high risk industries must have their first dose of a vaccine by December 1 and be fully vaccinated by December 31.

Mr McGowan said on Wednesday that anyone who does not comply could face hefty fines of up to $100,000 for employers and up to $20,000 for individual workers.

That’s divisive. It’s also called tyranny.

Anyway, since British MP David Amess was murdered by a Somali the other day the political class are freaking out about how vulnerable they all feel. Apparently, threats were also made against the PM and federal Health Minister Greg Hunt had a little cry about things too.

As usual, the Regime and the Lying Press present peaceful White protesters and the ocassional guy who vents on the internet as being in the same big-league as actual, murderous Islamic terrorists who actually kill people.

There is no longer any subtlety, no nuance, no real “intelligence” applied to counterterrorism or comparative politics any more. They are just jumbling everything together in their relentless quest to gain absolute control.

Do you have a licence for that picnic?

3

A protest has been underway in Acland Street, St Kilda, Melbourne, emulating protests carried out in France against the vaccine mandate. People are dining on the footpath along the busy restaurant strip to protest against discrimination towards the so-called unvaccinated in Victoria.

Check-in with QR codes is mandatory upon entry to all venues. Now, not only do you have to let the government know where you are at all times, you must be vaccinated to enter restaurants, bars and clubs.

Any business owner who enforces this is a rat and deserves to have people camped out the front. It doesn’t cost anything to eat on the side of the road and if the French can do it, so can we.

Naturally, Victoria Police are there to enforce the no-pineapple-on-homemade-pizza mandate.

 

They arrested somebody who poured milk into his tea before removing his teabag.

Seriously, this is our life now. You are not having a nightmare. This is real. People are eating on the side of the road in St Kilda because segregation is law in what used to be known as the lucky country.

Brave business owners who dare to reject open discrimination face standover tactics from Australia’s KGB.

The Regime is hoping that if it fines business owners over $100,000 for refusing to ruin the life of their employees, people will just roll over and take it.

Blocking a tram is rather mild, all things considered.

Everything she said was true.

Something tells me we’re still in the phase in which future historians will refer to as “the calm before the storm”.

Take the booster and everything will be fine

4

How to pack total reassurance and doubt into the one headline.

Those in the thrall of the Lying Press who have worn their masks faithfully at all times, harangued Covid deniers at every turn and been first in line for the vaccine, are likely to drop to the ground and beg for the booster at the sight of such a mush of contradictions. Nobody’s brain is able to stand up to that kind of multi-pronged barrage:

A third dose of Pfizer’s Covid vaccine provides near-total protection against symptomatic disease, the drugs giant has claimed.

The first full trial of the jab as a booster found that the additional shot raises immunity by a further 95.6 per cent.

Among 10,000 volunteers followed for almost a year, those who only had two injections were far more likely to test positive and fall ill than those given three.

The thing is, we’ve heard this before.

This is exactly the same as what they told us about the first vaccine. They told us it was 95% effective to get us to take it, then they whittled down its effectiveness to prep us for the booster. The game plan is right out there in the open.

Pfizer admitted that protection from the initial two-dose regimen wanes to about 84 per cent within six months.

The study also found that the booster shot was found to be safe with no safety concerns or severe adverse events reported.

lol

Pfizer’s findings are in line with real-world data from Israel, which found people were 20 times less likely to be hospitalised with Covid if they were boosted.

The key question now is how long the boost to immunity from a third dose lasts, and whether people will need to be revaccinated again at a later date.

I’d give it six months. Covid is forever and boosters are forever. We’re being fed this narrative because Australia’s Covid Regime is hitting us with a one-two combo: Yay we can all go free now but you have to take boosters.

Booster vaccines against Covid 19 will be rolled out to the aged care sector within weeks, with the government expecting to offer third shots for all vaccinated Australians by the end of the year.

The announcement comes as Australia reaches the 70% double-dose vaccination rate for those over the age of 16, meeting a key milestone under the national plan whereby the country transitions to phase B and restrictions begin to ease.

The federal health minister, Greg Hunt, said the government was “in advanced consideration” of an application from Pfizer for the use of its booster shots, and he hoped third doses would be rolled out to the aged care sector in the second week of November after a “critical” meeting next week.

“We’re ready, we’re in a position to commence, and to make sure that that additional protection is provided,” Hunt said.

We’ll give you what you want but you just have to do this one thing for us first. Seems legit.

Then again, maybe they’re right. Maybe we should just trust them, take the boosters and eventually this will all go away.

Segregation Day in Melbourne

4

After 2 weeks to flatten the curve, Melbourne’s lockdown has been lifted early after only 262 days. Apartment Australians could barely contain their joy.

Can’t tell if that’s cheering or zombies.

Deputy Premier James Merlino boasted the state was “on track to become one of the most highly vaccinated jurisdictions in the world”.

They love that word “jurisdiction”. Almost like Victoria has simply become an economic zone to be governed from afar by a global governance institution rather than comprising of a single people who have families and customs and have a gentle, parochial rivalry with people from the rest of Australia.

Here is a list of “freedoms” with which we have been so generously endowed:

Social gatherings

People will be allowed to have ten visitors to their home each day, including their dependents. Previously people were not allowed to have anyone over.

Gatherings outside will change from five fully-vaccinated people to 15.

Travel

The 10km travel limit in metropolitan Melbourne will be scrapped, but travel to regional areas is still barred.

The 9pm to 5am curfew or limit on reasons to leave the home will also be scrapped.

Retail

General retail will be open for outdoor service, as well as click and collect. Retail was only previously open for click and collect during lockdown.

Hairdressers – after being forced to shut when the latest lockdown was enforced – will now be able to open for five fully vaccinated people.

Schools

A staggered return to school will start on Friday. grades three and four will resume onsite learning on Tuesdays and Wednesday and grades five and six on Thursdays and Fridays.

Year 7s will return to classrooms Monday to Friday, Year 8s and 9s on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, Year 10s on Thursday and Friday and Year 11s Monday to Friday.

Hospitality

Venues will start opening for indoor food and drink service but only for a maxim of 20 vaccinated people. Venues were previously only allowed to do takeaway services.

Sport and recreation

Outdoor community sport will be allowed again for training only.

Weddings and funerals

Weddings will be allowed for up to 20 fully vaccinated people or 10 unvaccinated people indoors. Fifty fully vaccinated or 20 unvaccinated people can attend outdoor weddings subject to density limits.

In locked down areas, attendees had been limited to five people, including the two being married, the celebrant and two witnesses at weddings.

While funerals were allowed no more than 10 people, plus those necessary to conduct the funeral. Children under 12 months old had not been counted towards this cap.

I know what you’re thinking. This isn’t freedom at all. This is still tight regulation over minute details of everyday life. The government is still trying to control every aspect of our lives, just not as onerously. It’s like having to choose between getting stabbed in the leg or shot in the chest.

People classified as “vaccinated” will receive slightly less onerous restrictions. Meanwhile the “unvaccinated” will be denied the ability to work. This is blatant coercion and segregation.

Here’s where things get really dark. The imagery the Lying Press used to portray Melburnians enjoying their slightly less onerous restrictions is telling.

The girl in the overalls – yuck. Only one White guy in the whole frame and he’s a SIMP. In case you’re wondering, yes, this is an accurate representation of what Melbourne is like.

I used to think that replacement immigration was just meant to go on unabated until Anglo Aussies were all replaced, but obviously that would risk triggering the Wrath of the Awakened Saxon.

As made clear in the last 18 months, the goal pre-2020 was to use replacement immigration and social engineering to fracture Australian and Western society. Let’s call this Phase 1. An atomised population divided against itself is easier to control than a homogenous, God-fearing people. A “jurisdiction” whose greatest strength is diversity cannot – by definition – mount a coherent opposition to a medical and scientific dictatorship.

Late 2019 to late 2021 was Phase 2: Lockdown the world after the release of either a bioweapon or a fictitious virus; disrupt the global supply chain; drive people crazy; coerce billions into taking dangerous vaccines; kill off a few million.

In late 2021 we are entering Phase 3: Routine drugging of the majority of the West’s population, compromising immune systems and killing millions through adverse reactions; disrupt the world’s energy and food supplies by mandating “net-zero” carbon emissions; blockade any country which refuses to implement this insane environmentalist agenda, using the same international mechanisms which were used to enforce the global Covid lockdown.

Until now people were getting bored and a lot of people were getting sick. Now a lot more people are going to get sick and everybody is going to go hungry.

So yeah, enjoy Segregation Day, Melbourne.

Alec Baldwin just killed a woman

Has Alec Baldwin just made a few missing children a little bit safer?

In a statement first given to The Sun, Santa Fe County Sheriff Juan Rios revealed: “The sheriff’s office confirms that two individuals were shot on the set of Rust.

“Halyna Hutchins, 42, director of photography and Joel Souza, 48, director, were shot when a prop firearm was discharged by Alec Baldwin, 63, producer and actor.”

The officer also confirmed that no charges have been filed yet relating to the incident however, the investigation remains ongoing as witness’ are being interviewed.

Alec Baldwin will not be punished for this. Unless he talks.

Alec was filming a scene on the set of his new Western movie, Rust, that required him to fire a gun that was supposed to be loaded with blanks.

However, tragedy struck when the gun discharged either shrapnel or a bullet, which hit two people on set including director of photography, Halyna Hutchins.

They pulled the same stunt to do in Brandon Lee on the set of The Crow in 1993.

Shortly after the incident took place, Halyna was airlifted to a hospital where she died from her injuries.

This is Halyna Hutchins.

Maybe she was going to talk. Baldwin also shot this guy.

Yup.

Nobody in this business succeeds without taking the ticket, which generally involves letting other people molest you and not saying anything about all the kids they rape.

These people are so sick, they think that openly telling us what they’re doing absolves them of their sin and makes it all okay.

The only people who will be upset about this will be other Hollywood degenerates.

Candace Owens wants America to INVADE AUSTRALIA

3
Whatcha talkin’ about Willis?

I often think these days of the strategic decisions I thought we would be considering in 2021. Several years ago I thought the key debate would be over whether to retake North Africa once Constantinople was secure or to focus on deep sea exploration to find where Atlantis had gotten to.

Instead, I am trying to understand why a black woman pretending to be an American who pretends to be a conservative but was recruited from a porn agency is advocating for one country which enforces tyranny upon its citizens and is about to descend into civil war should use its woke military to invade another country which imposes tyranny upon its citizens and has an equally woke military.

Seriously, a fight between America and Australia right now would look like those fight scenes from Bridget Jones’ Diary:

 

A conservative US commentator has suggested America should “invade” to liberate Australians from “tyrannical” Covid-19 restrictions, likening the country to the early stages of a dictatorship under Hitler or Stalin.

The Soviets took a quarter of the population out of the city of St Petersburg. Daniel Andrews has promised to go door to door.

Daily Wire host Candace Owens made the provocative comments in her Tuesday show, saying that her husband has family members in Australia, one of whom recently shared that “the mental state of everyone around her was in steep decline”.

“She shared with him a message that she had received from a friend of hers, a woman who lives in Queensland, and the message is genuinely shocking,” Owens said.

“I was shocked reading this message and I decided that for this episode I’m just going to read it for verbatim. It’s a list of the Covid rules that Australian citizens are being made to follow. As I read this I want you to close your eyes and imagine that this was your life, and what your mental state would be like if you were being made to abide by these rules.”

People are going crazy. Suicides are up, and the rest of us are looking at our countrymen wondering what on earth happened to them, why they’re just going along with this.

Owens then read off a long list of Covid-19 restrictions that have been in place at various times during the pandemic, including household visitor limits, funeral caps, QR code check-ins “literally everywhere, including toilets”, curfews and travel restrictions.

“There are helicopters patrolling the skies to ensure that everybody is abiding by the curfews,” she said, apparently referring to viral footage from Sydney’s eastern suburbs earlier this year.

What do you mean “at various times”? All of those things are still happening right now.

“You’re not allowed to sit down at parks, beaches and public spaces. You’re not allowed to drink or eat while standing up anywhere.”

NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet literally narrowly avoided a fine recently for drinking a beer standing up.

Forbidden.

“No dancing anywhere. Only one person per household is allowed to go shopping for essentials.”

I know people who followed those rules.

“Only essential shopping is allowed and at times, the Defence Force and police have checked what people are shopping for. Dog parks, playgrounds, bike parks, beaches are closed and barricaded. Mask wearing is required when outside and even if you are alone.”

All true.

This is like when you call out a liar on their lies and they try to pretend that they never told lies. Then when you provide examples they pretend it was no big deal. You can put the word “tyrannical” in quotation marks all you like, but everyone who has supported the very real tyranny here in Australia is going to have to account for the fact that they have stood by while Australian police did this to unarmed peaceful protesters.

Owens said the thing that shocked her the most was people being locked out of their own states.

“Thousands of them are not allowed to return unless they get a vaccine, only after they go through a slow and restrictive exemption request process,” she said. “This is what is going on right now in Australia.”

Yes. One might even suggest that this is segregation.

Owens then questioned why America shouldn’t invade Australia like Afghanistan.

“For the last 20 years, the United States has spent trillions of dollars overseas in Afghanistan fighting a war, which we lost by the way,” she said.

“We were told the war was necessary anyway, the slaughtering of American sons and daughters on foreign soil because we were fighting a noble cause – to spread democracy in a tyrannical land. To free an oppressed people.

“So I’m going to ask those same lecturing politicians and media members a question – when do we deploy troops to Australia? When do we invade Australia and free an oppressed people who are suffering under a totalitarian regime? When do we spend trillions of dollars to spread democracy in Australia?”

Never, because America is not America anymore.

The question is not whether the American government should use its military to save the Australian people from its government. Both the Australian and American governments are actively replacing the progeny of its founding stock and are mandating permanent submission to dangerous vaccines which appear designed with genocide in mind.

The real question is when White people of all our various ethnicities are going to return to God our Creator and throw off the shackles of our oppressive governments. In this respect, the people of Australia and America have more in common with each other than we do with our own governments.

Save our Souls

A British MP who championed the diversity was murdered this last week by the diversity. Enough has been said on the irony of that topic. Over at Father Cusick’s site he posted links to a few curious messages on the topic, but from a different point of view. A priest who wished to perform the last rites was refused entry to the crime scene by police. The excuse was contamination of the crime scene. And yet paramedics were allowed on the scene at the time.

As a commenter in one of the quoted messages so aptly put it, the paramedics were given access to attempt to save the man’s body. Yet the priest was denied access in an attempt to save his soul. It’s clear where our societies’ priorities lie.

Our militant secularised society can now not even fathom the idea of saving a soul. Because in our modern world, souls no longer exist. To believe in the soul from a Christian viewpoint is to repudiate all that modern secularism stands for, or at least believes in. They believe in science. The physical science to save the physical body. To infinitely extend the unextendable. But God will not be mocked.

That those police cannot understand the context or idea of the soul I can accept. They are mere products of the revolution, comrades. That the priest in question blindly accepted their spiritual ignorance is much more annoying. It is less the police that erode away the ground beneath us than priests of this sort. He had a moment to teach not just his flocks but countless others. Instead he simply acquiesced to the powers that want us to submit.

But the failure of some believers in Christ to submit is the most dangerous thing in the world for secularism. They cannot stand it. They cannot abide this mockery of all that they pertain to temporarily believe in. But this episode should teach us a few things. One of them is that we cannot know the day nor the hour of our death. So go to confession on a regular basis with a real priest.

But also, we can know from this that the active persecutions will soon come. How could it be any other way? If you look at the situation with honesty of heart then the inevitability of real and active persecution of Christians in the Western world in the very near future is the most obvious thing of all. They have conditioned most people to view the details of Christianity as being of no importance at all. A dying member of parliament was refused the last rites with what I imagine was simple indifference. Nobody takes Christians seriously because most Christians aren’t serious.

Yesterday a reader with the heartwarming name of Magnus Stout posted a link in a comment to the following video of Orthodox Christians who suffered under the Soviet regime. It is a short but brutal raising of awareness for what is to come.

A few passages that struck me:

“We began to gather in our homes and pray. We didn’t go to the elections – that was a sin, and they didn’t let us go to school because they taught atheism instead of the Law of God.”

My high school was atheist – there was no mention of God in the whole time I was there, and that was over thirty years ago. Today they openly teach degeneracy in the schools and prosecute parents as terrorists who object. Just how far off do you think we are to what was to come for these Russians?

Then he began to throw down the icons. He kept on throwing them down and broke the lampadas. The brother’s wives, Tatiana and Euphrosyne, were arrested and later shot, while their little children remained, crying. In the morning they came to take the icons, but we managed to hide a good icon of St Nicholas on the roof so that they didn’t find it. And so we prayed with this single icon. We would take it out, pray and again hide it.

One hundred years ago the church was spiritually undiluted. All Christians were thus a threat. Today, while gay priests flaunt their body tattoos at Catholic alters, the only ones persecuted are those who still practice the now banned ancient rite. Whatever they don’t want you to do is the right path.

The young people in the village were stirred up against us. They came and broke our windows. We were forced to fill up the windows with bricks. It was the same in other villages. If you had to find a believer, then you looked for windows blocked up with bricks – that meant they were believers.

One way or another, they will mark us.

I see so much talk on how to prepare ourselves for the physical battle. But there is far less discussion on how to prepare oneself for the spiritual battle. It is the latter that truly counts. It is that for which you must be the most prepared. Every hour of the day or night. For we deal not with bodies but with souls. Those that can be saved.

AFL Mandates No Jab No Play

7

The AFL has chosen to actively endanger the lives of its players by mandating vaccination against Covid:

From Fox Sports:

The AFL has released its Covid-19 vaccination policy, which, “in general terms”, will require all AFL and AFLW players and football program staff to be vaccinated before the start of their respective seasons.

Outlined in the policy, formed in conjunction with the AFL Players’ Association, is the requirement of all AFL players and football program staff to be fully vaccinated by February 18, 2022.

Those who, without good reason, do not comply with the policy will not be able to attend their club or any AFL premises to either train or play.

On top of this, the league has outlined four options for clubs to deal with such players:

– Transfer the Player to the inactive player list (meaning the Player can be replaced) and pay the Player 25% of (for AFLW) their contracted salary or (for AFL) the CBA minimum base salary;

Keep the Player on their playing list (meaning the Player cannot be replaced) and pay the Player not less than 25% of (for AFLW) their contracted salary or (for AFL) 25% of the CBA minimum base salary;

– Terminate the Player’s playing contract with the agreement of the Player;

– Exercise any rights the Club may have at law to terminate the Player’s playing contract, but such rights are not to be exercised prior to 18 May 2022.

The latter essentially means players can be delisted if they are not vaccinated by 18 May 2022.

If you don’t get jabbed you will get the sack. And you’ve heard Daniel Andrews, you’re not going to be able to wait this out.

The AFL’s General Manager of Football Andrew Dillon said the policy “delivers on our commitment to best protect our players, staff and the wider community”.

The irony is that while the AFL has gotten all tiggy touchwood about so-called ‘duty of care’ in the last decade or two, mandating vaccination actively puts players at risk. Data demonstrates that you are more likely to have an adverse reaction or die from a Covid vaccine than you are to get sick or die with Covid if you are unvaccinated. The Andrews government is actively covering up the fact that most people hospitalised with Covid have had at least one jab.

Like their counterparts in the trade unions, the AFL Players’ Association is siding with State power rather than with its workers:

AFLPA CEO Paul Marsh said the player body has made clear, “the importance of vaccinations as part of a safe workplace and community and as a pathway out of our current lockdown cycle.”

He recognises that we are trapped in a lockdown cycle. What he won’t acknowledge is that it is a cycle dictated by our government, not by Covid or the unvaxxed.

“In saying this, our view is that vaccinations are an individual decision.“

No it’s not. You’re literally siding with the people forcing the people you are supposed to represent into taking the dangerous vaccine.

“It has, however became apparent in recent weeks that unvaccinated players will not be able to fulfil their contractual obligations due to various State border restrictions, and the new worker requirements in Victoria. Through our player meetings, players have been made aware that this was a possible scenario.”

That’s called a cope. Saying there is nothing you can do about it because all these other organisations and governments have made the decision for you and it is all too hard is avoiding responsibility. If ever there was a moment for the AFLPA to stand up for football players it is now.

The AFL could be in for a nasty shock. Footballers are well paid and they have access to resources. If a prominent player or group of players decides to fight this they could have some clout.

What the AFL is doing is illegal, it’s unconstitutional and it is outright immoral. Mandating vaccines is murder.

Asking the question “how did we get to this point” is instructive. Australian football is indicative of the slide into the abyss Australia as a nation has taken. In recent years the AFL has made it clear that it sees buttsex and feelings as its driving purpose.

It used to be all about the footy. In 1982 Carlton and Richmond played off in one of the most incredible Grand Finals of all time. A flurry of goals were kicked in the opening minutes. Then it hailed. Then there was an all-in brawl. Players continued to beat the living cheese out of each other for the next three quarters. Then a naked woman ran onto the ground. Bruce Doull manhandled her and told her in no uncertain terms to get off the field and so they could get back to beating the living cheese out of each other in between playing a bit of footy. Once she was gone, they did just that and Carlton won.

The pearl-clutchers would be horrified by this nowadays but I think it was beautiful, and it is disgusting that this world was deliberately destroyed. It was wild, dangerous and you could get seriously hurt, but it was free, we had intact families and communities, people went to church and we were still more or less a nation.

There is absolutely no way on God’s green earth you can say that what we have now is better.

This should be an indication that, if us purebloods ever end up on top once all this is over, anybody who suggests we should  do something to make the place more tolerant, diverse, or risk averse should at the very least receive an old fashioned shirt front.
