never underestimate stupid people, and definitely never underestimate a large group of stupid people.

If Hitler were alive today he would think Australia should lighten up a bit.

I would take a wild guess that the most decorated player in the history of the Australian Open will never play in that tournament again.

And most Aussies seem to be perfectly fine with it and even applauding it.

Most Americans would be fine with it. Almost everyone left of center in this country is cheering Australia's decision right now and even so-called conservatives have become cult-like in their fear of a virus with a 99% survival rate. Covid has exposed the vast majority of human beings to be totalitarian droids who believe what they're told and obey when they're told.

I just checked the new case rates for Australia and the US for Jan 4.

For each country the number of cases / total population is:

Australia - .001856

US - .001783

So Australia's rate was higher than ours yesterday, despite their draconian lockdowns from which I cannot fathom the damage to people's businesses, livelihoods, mental health, etc.

If and when they're finally done locking down, what is anyone going to have to return to?

Aussie was supposed to be hard nosed rugby and sharks and crocs - I can’t reconcile that with their Covid approach

That's their end goal.

I’d love for the top players on both the men’s and women’s sides to pull out. He had the back of that Chinese girl, standing up to China even though he’s sponsored by Nike too, just like Lebron. And willing to boycott the Olympics this summer if they didn’t sufficiently prove she was safe. (Not sure of his current position regarding her recent “statements.) They should have his too.

TBH I was surprised he was granted an exemption in the first place. I doubt it would have happened if the was the #85 player in the world.

It will never end. You never get the rights and liberties back you cede to the government.

Australia’s government has really shown its true colors during COVID.

Mother Britain should be ashamed of her imperial grandchildren Australia, Canada, and—sadly—the United States.
