Why is alt-media embracing a police state?

Why are some respected alt-media embracing a police state?

It should be obvious by now to anyone that the covid19 pandemic, whatever its origins, is being used to fast forward a “new normal” world of unparalleled government power, surveillance and curtailment of individual liberty.

We are looking already at:

• Compulsory DNRs for some elderly.

• Biometric chips or bracelets to monitor whether or not you have permission to be outside your home or engage in work

• Drone surveillance as normal.

• Apps on your phone that can detect any breach of the self-isolation policy.

• Huge new police powers of arrest and detention for anyone suspected of carrying the virus.

• Suspension of elections for indefinite periods at government discretion

And this is only the starter course. We can be pretty sure they are currently just easing us in. The real stuff will be rolling along in the next months or maybe years (depending on how quickly they feel able to get this on)

This is the fabric of nightmare. A worst-case horror story that is the absolute quintessence of everything the alt-media is supposed to oppose.

Surely, you would think ...

DNR - Do Not Resuscitate

Will guess it comes from a news story from NY State where a Grand Son says that his Grand Father was asked to sign one and he refused, doctor told him that he had to sign, but he still refused, so doctor signed it for him. One would hope doctor would lose license, but in these times doubt it. Seems to be policy.

Always wonder how those things worked, do they staple it to your chest?

So what is NY like these days? Think they call it "suppression"? Watch to end 24 mins.

My my my Karonsteve such a pity. I'm shedding tears for your plight. What small sacrifices to help eliminate or at least slow the spread of this deadly virus.

Educating the stupid was always going to be the hardest part of this pandemic.

Are you referring to Covid 19 or Sharia law ???

[fdimike]

The Covid 19 virus. I fail to understand how Sharia Law is included

[Drunk Monkey]

It was just my rather semimentallyderangedantiestablishmentistic point of view comparing sharia law to an illness (not onlyC19) in the way it confines and restricts those that choose to follow it ... and in many ways seem hugely foreign non followers .
