Fighting Fake News with REAL 29/8/21; Far Right and COVID-19 Conspiracies; Misinformation works for Politics; Creationists and God's design;

 

 

 

 May be a cartoon of text that says '↓ Australia will be opening up Soon.. I'm not Sure they're talking king to uડ. wrcox'

 Morrison was used as the Pointer the glove for the American ploy.

About the origins, they have no clear conclusion. That both disrespects the WHO's conclusion that it "extremely unlikely" it comes from a lab leak, and means their work for three months has been in vain.

 

  Last weekend, thousands of anti-vaxxers and COVID denialists marched across Australia to protest pandemic restrictions. A core of far-right activists were at the center of the action.

In Australia, the Far Right Is Pushing COVID-19 Conspiracies

“Woke” is Republican-speak. Murdoch Media-speak. Conservative political speak

“Woke” is versatile Conservative catch-all epithet: A form of abuse thrown at us who cry change

And the bigots and the hate-preachers and the supremacists are right to be afraid of us because we in our “wokeness” are going to make sure that they do not have the final word here. To Republicans, to be woke is to be deeply human, and that humanity will remain the foe they cannot defeat.

It’s woke to want fair elections.
It’s woke to be anti-racist.
It’s woke to be anti-fascist.
It’s woke to trust Science.
It’s woke to wear a mask in a pandemic.
It’s woke to be the parent of a bullied child.
It’s woke to want to be addressed with the gender you identify with.
It’s woke to want a less-polluted community.

 Republicans Call Decency “Woke” Because They’re Indecent

 

As long as profit is the driving force of our MSM and Truth, a dispensible sideshow, the battle against the pandemic, climate change, economic injustice, and for our democratic unity will not be just tougher but will continue to be a planned political strategy.

Malevolent fringe groups, smelling blood on the periphery, seek to prey on the confused, reaching out to them when no one else will. This all takes place on a stage set by a corporate entity that has no care for the damage it leaves behind. How we choose to perceive, navigate and communicate this social crisis will have a bearing on the outcomes of our communities and determine the future state of our national harmony. Why is it on the population to bear the burden of these considerations? Without a national message and guidance, without a press willing or able to talk truth to power, Australians are left to fend for themselves in a murky maelstrom of misinformation and political self-interest.

 Government and media misinformation making the pandemic tougher

 

Martyn Iles of the Australian Christian Lobby.

 Just another creationist demanding believe in us not science and rational analysis.

The Australian Christian Lobby has called on its supporters not to “fear death” and instead push state governments to end COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions. In an email to members on Friday night, managing director Martyn Iles said the coronavirus was here to stay and that he was “not afraid to face the inevitable”. “Christians should lead the way on this because fear of death’s a condition from which Christ has freed us,” Mr Iles wrote. “The truth is, we must face the virus, either sooner or later because it’s not going anywhere. But fear is ruling the day at great cost

 Australian Christian Lobby says believers should push for COVID freedoms, not ‘fear death’
