    Just curious, looking at this United Australia Party short vid on YouTube, is there any way the number of views can be manipulated by the channel? 8 million views?

    You can literally buy followers, subscribers, views, clicks, etc on the internet to boost your credibility metrics – it is a big business.  Clive Palmer is a shady operator, and quite savvy, so I would not put it past him to hire a bot army to boost his social media presence.

    ”Steve Kirsch, who is the Executive Director of the COVID-19 Early Treatment Fund said that the vaccine is killing more people than it is saving. He claimed that even if the vaccines were 100% protective, two people are killed for every one life saved.

    Just finished reading another article on similar lines:

    Study Shows Vaccine Will ENHANCE Delta Infectivity

    《 ▹A group of Japanese researchers released research showing that the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant “is poised to acquire complete resistance” to existing COVID-19 jabs

    ▹When four common mutations were introduced to the Delta variant, Pfizer’s mRNA injection enhanced its infectivity, causing it to become resistant

    ▹A Delta variant with three mutations has already emerged, which suggests it’s only a matter of time before a fourth mutation develops, at which point complete resistance to Pfizer’s jab may be imminent

    ▹A number of experts have raised concerns that COVID-19 jabs and the mass vaccination program could worsen the pandemic by triggering the development of new variants, via a concept known as antigenic, or immune, escape

    ▹Another study found that a worst-case scenario can develop when a large percentage of a population is vaccinated but viral transmission remains high, driving the development of resistant strains 》

    The World Summit on Combating and Preventing Live Organ Harvesting , jointly organized by five non-governmental organizations from Europe, the United States and Asia, will be held over two consecutive weekends from September 17-19, and 24-26, 2021.

    The event features 35 experts from 19 countries with expertise in six areas of inquiry: medical, legal, political, media, civil society and policy-making. The topic centers on the far-reaching impact of the Chinese Communist Party’s organ harvesting atrocities on human dignity and all aspects of life, and how to combat and prevent such atrocities.

    Forced Organ harvesting of living people poses a great danger to humankind as it violates universal ethical values, moral principles of life and human dignity, thus turning the medical profession into an abusive practice.

    The Liberal party might not entirely agree with you on that point.  They lie and try and pretend they had nothing to do with Palmer’s failed High Court cases against the WA government.  I don’t think that is going to work for them come election time; people are going to be reminded about that a lot and they will punish the Libs.  Just ask a WA state Liberal what could happen here.

    As a doctor, here’s my opinion on Nicki Minaj, swollen testicles and vaccine hesitancy – she’s not talking boll**ks
    …Before you, like thousands of would-be diagnosticians trained at Google University, dismiss her story as inflammatory boll**ks, let’s take a moment to examine her claim, and the advice that follows, objectively.
    The Covid vaccines, and in particular those produced by Johnson & Johnson and AstraZeneca, have become infamous for their rare, but potentially fatal, thrombotic side effects, so much so that the J&J jab was put on hold by the FDA and other nations earlier this year. Disparaging nicknames like “clot shot”or “stroke poke” are over dramatic, certainly, but they weren’t coined in a vacuum.
    Keeping in mind that particular vaccine complication, let’s now consider that spontaneous clotting of the venous plexus draining the testes is a rare, but known, medical entity, and can present as a swollen, tender testicle.
    Would a presentation exactly like Minaj described be a common occurrence? No, certainly not. Is it possible? According to easily accessible data and case reports, the answer must be yes, which naturally obliges us to ask: why would Whitty, Fauci, and other “experts” declare so unequivocally that she must be lying? Why could they fail to imagine a clinical scenario that any layman with an internet connection and a search engine can easily uncover in minutes?
    What’s more, the poor ex-groom of Nicki’s story wouldn’t be the only fellow lamenting those same sad vaccine complications. Current data from the UK’s Yellow Card system show that dozens of men have complained about erectile dysfunction, impotence, scrotal pain and swelling after receiving their vaccination pricks. While this self-reporting only confirms suspicion, not causation, it clearly demonstrates that Nicki Minaj is innocent of the dishonesty of which Professor Whitty, who apparently is unaware of his own government’s reporting scheme, and others have accused her…

    Desperate families and businesses were pleading with their Premier to reveal a road map of real hope. What they got was ‘HOPELESS

    VICTORIANS will be living under tough restrictions even after 80 per cent of the state is fully vaccinated.

    The state’s plan has been dubbed a “road map of roadblocks”, with Melbourne’s lockdown to continue for at least another five weeks – a world record-breaking 267 days since the start of the pandemic.

    Daniel Andrews unveiled the long-awaited plan to freedom, which will delay the return to school for most students, force shops to operate outdoors and limit pubs and cafes to “restrictive” customer caps.

    The state will only begin to open gradually once restrictions in metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria align at 80 per cent vaccination coverage – expected on November 5.

    People in NSW will be able to visit family and friends at 70 per cent double dose, while Victorians will have to reach 80 per cent to do that.

    Opposition Leader Matthew Guy said the measures appeared to be “too harsh for too long”.

    And Victorian Chamber of Commerce and Industry chief Paul Guerra said Victorian business were looking for a path to prosperity but what they got was a “road map of roadblocks.”

    https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/debunking-bidens-claim-we-must-protect-vaccinated-unvaccinated

     

    The official line on vaccines is that they are extremely effective at protecting against serious illness. And yet, these same people are also claiming that the unvaccinated are a major threat to the vaccinated.

    More specifically, President Biden claimed on September 10 that vaccine mandates were to “protect the vaccinated workers from unvaccinated workers.”

    In other words, it is claimed that vaccines are remarkably effective, and that the vaccinated must also be protected from the unvaccinated. How can both claims be true at the same time? They can’t. The idea that vaccinated people are being frequently harmed by the unvaccinated is a complete fabrication, based on the pro-mandate crowd’s own mainstream data.

    As Robert Fellner points out, according to the official data,

    The odds of a vaccinated person dying from COVID are 1 in 137,000.

    The fatality rate for seasonal flu, meanwhile, is at least 100 times greater than that. The chance of dying in an automobile accident is over 1,000 times greater. Dog attacks, bee stings, sunstroke, cataclysmic storms, and a variety of other background risks we accept as a normal part of life are all more deadly than the risk COVID poses to the vaccinated.

    Moreover, the risk of death to vaccinated people is similar to the risk of having an adverse side effect to the vaccine. And as the spokesmen for Big Pharma and the regime never tire of telling us, you shouldn’t care about having an adverse reaction, because it is so very rare and inconsequential.

    So by that reasoning, vaccinated people shouldn’t worry about getting very ill from covid. Those cases are just as rare as the so, so rare cases of adverse reaction.

    And yet, even after all of this, the backers of vaccine mandates are trying to whip up hysteria about how we must “protect the vaccinated” who are in grave danger thanks to the unvaccinated.

    The level of mental and logical incoherence necessary to come to this conclusion is quite a feat.
    It Doesn’t Stop the Spread
    It must also be remembered that vaccination does not stop the spread of covid.

    Fellner continues:

    But as [the CDC’s] Dr. Walensky explained last month, while the COVID vaccines remain incredibly effective at preventing serious illness and death, “what they cannot do anymore is prevent transmission.” This reflects the official position of the agency as well, which is why the CDC now requires vaccinated people to mask indoors and follow the same type of social distancing practices as unvaccinated people.

    The official confirmation that COVID is endemic, and vaccination cannot stop transmission and thereby eliminate it in the way it could for things like polio and smallpox, makes mandates intolerable to a free society. The entire argument for mandatory vaccination originally rested on the claim that the vaccines could reliably stop transmission.

    Moreover, those who are vaccinated often experience a mild form of covid when they are re-infected, which means they often spread the disease without even knowing they have it. The vaccinated also carry the same viral load as the unvaccinated, as noted last month by the UK’s Evening Standard:

    While evidence demonstrates that vaccines significantly reduce hospitalisations and deaths, scientists now believe those infected by the Delta variant can still harbour similar levels of virus to those who are unvaccinated.

    Previous thinking was that vaccinations would stop the spread, but now,

    [T]his has been thrown into doubt and raises questions about vaccine passports … which work on the assumption that double-jabbed people are less likely to spread the virus.

    Yet again, we see the notion that the vaccinated are being endangered by the unvaccinated is a fantasy of the mandate activists.

    At least the CDC is being logical when it says the vaccinated should keep wearing masks. Indeed, every time we hear this from the CDC we should remind ourselves: vaccination does not stop the spread.
    They’re Filling Up the Hospitals! 
    There is a secondary fallback position the mandate pushers also use: that the unvaccinated are taking up all the intensive care beds and therefore denying people with other conditions the hospital beds that are allegedly more deserved by others.

    As I pointed out here, this is also an inconsistent argument since this arguments rests on the idea that people who make unhealthy choices (like not taking a vaccine) ought to be treated as pariahs.

    This only applies to one single “unhealthy choice.” These mandate pushers are apparently perfectly fine with drug abusers, smokers, and morbidly obese victims of Type-2 diabetes—the numbers of whom have been multiplying— filling up all the ICU beds. No, those people deserve their hospital beds even though they made the choice to destroy their own health. In fact if one suggests people lay off the meth pipe, the Big Gulps, or the Marlboros—in an effort to improve health—one is an intolerable “fat shamer” or someone who blames the victims.

    In any case, recent data has also emerged questioning whether or not the data on hospitalizations is very useful in identifying the load imposed on ICUs by covid patients.

    A recent study showed that nearly half (i.e., 48 percent) of covid hospitalizations in 2020 were mild cases. According to The Atlantic (not exactly a hotbed of anti-vaccine rhetoric):

    The study found that from March 2020 through early January 2021—before vaccination was widespread, and before the Delta variant had arrived—the proportion of patients with mild or asymptomatic disease was 36 percent. From mid-January through the end of June 2021, however, that number rose to 48 percent. In other words, the study suggests that roughly half of all the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards in 2021 may have been admitted for another reason entirely, or had only a mild presentation of disease.

    And why are there fewer severe cases now? It may be because “unvaccinated patients in the vaccine era tend to be a younger cohort who are less vulnerable to COVID and may be more likely to have been infected in the past.”
    Get Vaccinated Even If You Already Had Covid!
    But no matter! All that matters is getting people vaccinated, and it’s all for your own good, and governments ought to be able to force medications on you. The cynical refrain of the pro-abortion Left, “get your laws off my body” only applies to one single case. In every other case, the state owns you.

    This drive for vaccination no matter what can also be seen in the effort to vaccinate even those who have already recovered from covid. The claim here is that those who natural immunity should get jabbed because they have a higher incidence of reinfection—although it is admitted cases of reinfection tend to be far milder than the initial case.

    Specifically, those pushing vaccination in this case may point to a study suggesting the unvaccinated are 2.34 times more likely to be reinfected than the vaccinated.

    Yet, according to the pro-mandate crowd, this is 2.34 times larger than an extremely small number. After all, we’re frequently told that cases of reinfection for the vaccinated are “extremely rare” and inconsequential. So, that means for the unvaccinated, the odds of reinfection are a little more than double an inconsequential number. Now, I don’t have a degree in mathematics, but I have taken enough calculus and statistics classes to know that 2.3 times “basically zero” is also “basically zero.”

    But that is the math being used by those who insist that the risk of reinfection for the vaccinated is negligible, while the risk of reinfection for the already-recovered is an enormous public health crisis.

    According to the mandate pushers’ own data, the drive to protect the vaccinated from the unvaccinated makes no sense at all. But I suspect they’ll stick with the slogan, or even double down on it.

    That’s why The Age describes Luis as an Age photographer.

    The policeman in the video who violently shoved the elderly woman to the road could have just as easily walked around her. Why not?  She did not have a weapon.

    He shoved her down and just kept going.   It’s confronting to see that in Australia.  A mixture of brutality, “drunk” with power, misogyny too? – would he shove a man to the ground but a woman will always be physically weaker and easier to push around.

    And the one who sprayed her seemed to be loving using the spray on people, having a terrific time. Like a kid with a new toy.
