RSSRon, if you want to see a real echo-chamber of anti-vaxxers go on over to James Kunstlers blog.
You will be quickly run out of that forum, like I was, if you post views counter to the anti-vaxxer circle-jerk there.
Ron,
I live in New Zealand.
Home of some of the best and most respected Universities in the World.
And with medical expertise ranking with the best.
And with a functioning democratic government respected by all Kiwis.
And Universal healthcare – free.
We have Covid under control – with essentially zero cases.
And are on our way to vaccinating the entire populace.
With it looks like the 95% approval of all 5.5-million of us.
There are practically no anti-vax conspiracy theories being floated on NZ social media.
Nor in our alternative media.
Wonder why that is – as opposed to the multitudes of anti-vax crazies in the US.
Good bye.
And are on our way to vaccinating the entire populace.

Innocent minds. Good bye.

It's really a pleasure to read the remarks of a rational person on this comment-thread. So millions of your countrymen have already been vaccinated, and it doesn't sound like the horrific health problems all the loons are ranting about have yet appeared. Maybe you'll all suddenly drop dead in six months, but I tend to doubt it.

The fact that most Kiwis are brain-washed and obsequious followers of their 'wise-overlord' government masters and are totally devoid of critical thinking capacity, is hardly something to crow about.

COVID is nothing more than a PSYOP initiated on the world for the purpose of CONTROL, a massive wealth transfer to the top 1% via the destruction of the the middle class and small businesses, whilst simultaneously culling the herd (vaccines linked to sterilisation of young women as vaccine toxins accumulate in the ovaries - not to mention outright death and possible degenerative diseases in the years to to come).
Good bye.

We the people of New Zealand did not “simply let your overseers take a leisurely stroll away with all of your guns a few months ago”
Sensible gun control is what we the people want, and voted for.
A leader of the Texas Republican Party hopped on Facebook in May to post about a “mask burning” party 900 miles away in Cincinnati. “I wished I lived in the area!” wrote H Scott Apley.
The month before, Apley responded to what Baltimore’s former health commissioner was heralding as “great news” — clinical trials showed the Pfizer vaccine was effective at fighting the coronavirus for at least six months, including one of the recent variants.
“You are an absolute enemy of a free people,” he wrote in a Twitter reply.
And on Friday, the 45-year-old Dickinson City Council member republished a Facebook post implying that vaccines don’t work.
Two days later, Apley was admitted to a Galveston hospital with “pneumonialike symptoms” and tested positive for COVID. He was sedated and put on a ventilator.
On Wednesday, he died, members of his county’s party announced on social media.
Patrick McGinnis, chairperson of the Galveston County Republican Party, said in a statement that Apley’s death was a “tragedy … magnified by his youth, his young family especially his very young son.”
Murder in the first.

You Americans are sadly unaware of how New Zealand democracy works.
To call it a gynocracy is ridiculous.
Unlike the US President, the Prime Minister of New Zealander, currently a woman, does not have powers to direct national affairs and the priorities of the government.
The New Zealand Prime Minister cannot issue rules, regulations, and instructions called executive orders.
Your attempt to portray New Zealand as an authoritarian tyrannical state is ridiculous.
New Zealand has no active Covid cases. To keep it that way – our borders are locked down tight. Overseas visitors are required to be quarantined for 14-days, and only permitted entrance upon providing a negative Covid test. If you refuse the test you get on the plane and leave. Perfectly reasonable. Its the law – passed by our democratically elected parliamentarians.
The US would do well to follow suit. Sadly the US does not control its borders. As Ronald Reagan said, “A country that won’t or can’t control its borders is not a country anymore.’”
From Fact Check
A video showing Fr. Sam Bailey claiming the PCR testing method for the novel coronavirus does not “actually test for the virus” and is being used inappropriately has been viewed tens of thousands of times on Facebook. The claims are misleading; multiple experts told AFP the PCR test being used in New Zealand tests for specific RNA sequences unique to the SARS-CoV-2 virus and it is not being used inappropriately by medical staff.
The YouTube link has been interacted with on Facebook over 5,800 times after being posted by the Advance New Zealand and New Zealand Public Parties. NZPP. Minority parties in Parliament.
AFP Factcheck has previously found claims made by NZPP leader Billy Te Kahika to be misleading, and showed that one of the joint Advance NZ/NZPP election campaign videos used misleadingly edited parliamentary footage.
The claims made in the video by Dr Bailey are also misleading.
That particular attempt, maybe, but the steady pace of seizing the people's guns means becoming an authoritarian tyrannical state is only a matter of time. And I'd say any country that threatens ten years in prison and as I recall prosecuting at least a couple of people for merely possessing a very ugly video has already arrived.And you have absolutely no sense of history, else you'd be weighing what the Left did to disarmed populations in the 20th Century on the negative side of the ledger, a bare minimum of 100 million innocents in their own countries murdered.But an island imposing strike quarantine measures to maintain its Zero Covid policy? Don't travel they if you don't want to experience a very mild version of what Venice did WRT to the the Black Death, forty days waiting on a ship thus giving us the name's root word.Replies: @No12kiwi

Seeing as AFP Factcheck said that, it is safe to say with absolute certainty that Billy Te Kahika was not misleading anyone.
'AFP Factcheck has previously found claims made by NZPP leader Billy Te Kahika to be misleading'.
That’s just such BS my friend.
Every police force in the US is armed to the teeth.
And that stopped all the mass shootings in the US eh? Yeah right!
We Kiwis see the tragedy of the US 2nd Amendment playing out on our TV’s all too often.
NZ gun deaths: In 2016, there were nine gun murders in New Zealand. A rate of 1.87 per million people.
US gun deaths: 38,300 deaths from guns in 2019. A rate of 44.0 per million people in homicides. And another 74.0 per million from tragic suicides. Ask my daughter who is a ER doctor in Madison WI what she thinks about the 2nd Amendment.
But lets save this debate for another forum.
Billionaire and Google co-founder Larry Page is a New Zealand resident, and visited the country in the midst of Covid-19 border restrictions.
Page, who is the sixth-richest man in the world, was granted entry into the country despite New Zealand borders remaining closed to most travellers during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Last month, researchers designated the country the “best place to survive global societal collapse,” citing its ability to protect borders and grow food for the population, temperate climate and low population density. Those attributes have made it a favoured destination for global elites hoping to buy boltholes or bunkers in preparation for a social or environmental apocalypse in the US.
So what did the “Left” do to disarm populations in the 20th Century on the negative side of the ledger
Near the outset of his rant on Piers Morgan Tonight conspiracy peddler Alex Jones warned that the Second Amendment is all that stands between democracy and dictatorship. “Hitler took the guns, Stalin took the guns, Mao took the guns, Fidel Castro took the guns, Hugo Chávez took the guns, and I’m here to tell you, 1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms!” he screamed.
Its all BS of coarse. Take Hitler for just one example:
So did Hitler and the Nazis really take away Germans’ guns? This argument is fallacious at best, as University of Chicago law professor Bernard Harcourt explained in a 2004 paper on Nazi Germany’s impact on the American culture wars. As World War I drew to a close, the new Weimar Republic government banned nearly all private gun ownership to comply with the Treaty of Versailles and mandated that all guns and ammunition “be surrendered immediately.” The law was loosened in 1928, and gun permits were granted to citizens “of undoubted reliability” (in the law’s words) but not “persons who are itinerant like Gypsies.” In 1938, under Nazi rule, gun laws became significantly more relaxed. Rifle and shotgun possession were deregulated, and gun access for hunters, Nazi Party members, and government officials was expanded. The legal age to own a gun was lowered.
That particular attempt, maybe, but the steady pace of seizing the people's guns means becoming an authoritarian tyrannical state is only a matter of time. And I'd say any country that threatens ten years in prison and as I recall prosecuting at least a couple of people for merely possessing a very ugly video has already arrived.And you have absolutely no sense of history, else you'd be weighing what the Left did to disarmed populations in the 20th Century on the negative side of the ledger, a bare minimum of 100 million innocents in their own countries murdered.But an island imposing strike quarantine measures to maintain its Zero Covid policy?

Talk about false equivalencies!
New Zealand quarantine is 14-days in a room in a 5-star hotel! With full meal service.
BTW this little “Island” New Zealand is larger than the UK.
China has tried to convince the world that most of the South China Sea belongs to it. It has built up islands in the sea in an attempt to convince the international community that its exclusive economic zone (EEZ) extends a lot farther than its coast.What a bunch of crap. China has never tried to claim the South China Sea as its 'territorial waters' nor convince the world that its EEZ extends to the whole of the South China Sea. As a signatory to the UNCLOS, China has agreed to its provisions granting maritime rights to coastal States which include 12-nm territorial seas as well as the 200-nm EEZ. But the nature of the dispute in the South China Sea is not about maritime rights but about TERRITORIAL claims to the offshore islands located within the 9-dash line.As for the display of military might by the UK, Germany and other Western nations, China has the military capability to sink those floating coffins in the South China Sea with its massive arsenal of anti-ship missiles. Somebody ought to tell these White bozos that the days when the West could exercise 'gunboat diplomacy' against China is long gone.Replies: @No12kiwi

Those US aircraft carriers will be sunk in the first week if a shooting war starts. The US Navy knows that. The US Navy expenditure in being the self appointed World policeman is the biggest con job on the beleaguered US tax payer ever.
Daily Covid-19 cases in the US moved above 100,000 a day for the first time since February, higher than the levels of last summer when vaccines were not available, and came as health officials sounded alarm over lagging rates of vaccination driving the surge of the infectious Delta variant.
The seven-day average of hospital admissions has also increased more than 40% from the week before, with health workers describing frustration and exhaustion as hospitals in Covid hotspots were again overwhelmed with patients, almost 20 months into the pandemic in the US.
……the gays have really been kicking my ass for years…..
Come on man! How have “gays been kicking your ass”?
Get real!
Defense secretary Lloyd Austin is seeking Joe Biden’s approval to make coronavirus vaccines mandatory for all members of the US military.
In a message to service members today, Austin said he hopes to make vaccinations mandatory “no later than mid-September, or immediately upon the U.S. Food and Drug Agency (FDA) licensure, whichever comes first”.
Covid-19 could be eradicating but the virus will be much trickier than getting rid of smallpox was, experts say.
Analysis by New Zealand University of Otago professors Michael Baker and Nick Wilson compared the feasibility of eradicating Covid-19, smallpox and polio based on technical, socio-political and economic factors.
Smallpox, a disfiguring and deadly disease, was declared eradicated in 1980 – the only virus affecting humans to be wiped out in history.
Using 17 variables to compare the viruses, Baker and Wilson found smallpox had the highest average score for eradication feasibility: 2.7. Covid-19 had an average score of 1.6 and polio an average of 1.5.
Wilson said that put eradicating Covid-19 “into the realm of possibility” in terms of technical analysis.
The virus will eventually reach the limit of its ability to mutate, and new vaccines will likely be created to deal with the evolving strains, Wilson said.
Biden will not have the courage to say “NO”, Phil.
Israel is going to drag us into another war.

Israel is going to drag us into another war.
The incessant, murderous search for Amalek:
From October 12 to 14. 2003, a meeting was held at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. According to the invitation card: «Israel is the moral alternative to Eastern totalitarianism and Western moral relativism. Israel is the ’Ground Zero’ of our civilisation’s central battle for survival. Israel can be saved, and the rest of the West with it. It is time to unite in Jerusalem.»
Several hundred personalities from the Israeli and US far right are being entertained at the expense of the Russian mafia. Avigdor Lieberman, Benyamin Netanyahu and Ehud Olmert congratulate Elliot Abrams, Richard Perle and Daniel Pipes.
They are not only deranged but truly dangerous for humankind at large.
...the theopolitics that this congress claims to follow is a resurgence of Talmudism. This school of thought - of which Leo Strauss was a specialist - interprets Judaism as a thousand-year-old prayer of the Jewish people to avenge the crimes of the Egyptians against their ancestors, their deportation to Babylon by the Assyrians and even the destruction of the Jews of Europe by the Nazis.
... the "Wolfowitz doctrine" prepares the Armaggedon (the final battle) which will be the establishment of chaos first in the wider Middle East, then in Europe. A general destruction that will mark the divine punishment of those who made the Jewish People suffer.
