Thanks for sticking to it!
My mum is a nurse and so I’ve heard a lot of stories of this being common - as if being physically abused is a part of the job.

However, theres no political will, because those with money, can lobby better than those without.
Ironically America rejected the monarchy, and yet has replaced it with an oligarchy.
…Because people like you are whining and not working hard enough?
No- we don’t live in a meritocracy. Productivity is not rewarded proportionately.
A glass half-full approach doesn’t resolve wealth inequality.
That is to say: taking advantage of their wealthy situation is a good way to lose your friendship.
Exercise is required to be a human. Walking 10,000 steps each day is a good rule of thumb, it doesn't require proper shoes, or any equipment. Many people will get there just through their day-to-day activities. If that's unachievable, there are games like Ring Fit which are very accommodating.
Sleep is required to be a human. 7-8 hours a day. It doesn't need to be all at once, but it is so important not to devalue those restorative hours.
Food is required to be a human. Our gut biome is instrumental to cognitive well-being; our brain requires Omega-3 fatty acids which can not be produced within our body, and important vitamins such as D, B-12, iron, etc. are often not available in many processed foods (which is why many are becoming fortified!)
Lacking in all the above is co-emergent depression, as well as a recipe for systemic health issues.
Simply put: I could purposely crash my car and it would not be counted as a suicide or homicide.
While there are a lot of reasons for that to be the case, my point is the numbers are not representative of our current position.
A more holistic approach measuring alcohol and drug abuse, domestic violence, social media sentiment, and workforce participation.
Unfortunately, all of which are indicating that the majority are collectively suffering.
Many people have lost family members and been pushed into poverty. It is incredibly callous to think mental health can be discretely measured without accounting for the environment.
Suicide is not a quantitative measure of mental health.
Google Search for example was heavily modified for the Chinese market.
If you'd like an explainer on how security laws such as TOLA are enacted, this channel is a great resource:
We have substantially lower death rates than Florida, which has a comparable population.
Florida: 3,600,000 covid cases 56,667 deaths
Melbourne: 54,470 covid cases 913 deaths
This remains true for the rest of Australia. Unfortunately, we are in a remarkable position compared to many parts of the world.
This is not true at all. As an Australian who has been following protests closely and the police response, they are clearly only shooting rubber bullets at those who are:
- Throwing glass bottles at police
- Attacking "fake news" journalists
- Damaging buildings and monuments.
Black Lives Matter protests peacefully marched through the city last year and no rubber bullets were used.
> why it's normal to be required to take surveillance photos of themselves in their own residences
Unless you're in quarantine, this is not a requirement. Are you suggesting that we should not have a quarantine program? Or continue to use hotels, which are ill-equip for quarantining, and lead to the initial outbreaks here in Australia?
> I guess strict authoritarianism must be accompanied with equally strict media propaganda.
Media diversity has never been worse. I agree that things need to change. That however, has nothing to do with CHO directives.
TBH, I'm sad I wasted my time reading such an uninformed opinion piece.
Your purchasing habits are not indicative of the mainstream; further, the iPhone isn't priced based on cost to the cost to design or manufacture.
You can also setup a VPN to route traffic and strictly firewall.
Apple also contacted users directly to alert them of whatever apps they had purchased on the App Store were compromised so they could monitor for updates, or remove the app entirely.
Has Google done the same? Neither Apple or Google have the ability to directly remove apps on a users device, but simply removing it from the store and then having users rely on a solution like MalwareBytes seems like Google is abnegating their responsibility of a safe marketplace.

With your attitude, you wouldn't have necessarily seen the efficacy in updating the apps and could still be infected to this day.
We all, live in an extremely divided economic landscape - the _most_ divided in modern history.
I do not understand how this is not a focus of your argument. With this in mind, if our government offers support to the individual; we can innovate freely without imposing further employer regulation on private businesses. In a globalist society, where jobs are exported to the most exploitative country, this seems to be a promising solution.
Australia currently has a program where anyone impacted from the effects of the pandemic, receives $1,500 a fortnight- and yet is experiencing deflation. The very fact of this debunks your argument, as it is a significant portion of the population who is now receiving a cash injection. This money is not exclusively for rent, nor is it tied to food stamps; it is $1,500 to spend as you wish.
Further, The Reserve Bank Of Australia is in favour of these payments. And it's also worth noting, many economies have an inflation target of about 3%, which indicates that inflation is healthy and to so staunchly avoid anything that may affect inflation is a fools errand.
Regardless, please read more than a wikipedia article before holding such a strong opinion. The other commenter called you out for being lazy, and I wholeheartedly agree with them.
