TANSTAFPFC (There Ain’t No Such Thing As Free Protection From Covid.)

Freddie Sayers wonders if many in Britain are victims of the Stockholm Syndrome. A slice:

To a degree never before seen in British history, these leaders have had power to control every aspect of our lives — should it surprise us if psychologically they have assumed something of the space of our benevolent captors?

Australia’s government is to be admired for its quick and draconian and response to Covid-19 – a response that has assured Australians now of a life without Covid restrictions? I think not. Definitely not.

Hmmm…. I wonder what this new Van Morrison song is about.

In this very short talk, Roger Watson praises Jonathan Sumption – including Sumption’s principled stand against lockdowns.

Petty tyranny such as this officiousness in London is a natural, nasty result of Covid Derangement Syndrome.

It’s good to see that at least some parents across the U.S. continue to actively protest the masking of schoolchildren.
