Fighting Fake News with REAL 31/5/21; Vic Gov slams "It's not my job Morrison" Centerlink unlikely to help;


Almost a third of residents at the Arcare Maidstone aged care facility have not consented to being vaccinated.

List of exposure sites nears 300 as authorities await aged care test results

Display homes, Chadstone stores and bus lines are among roughly 100 new locations added yesterday. It comes after an aged care worker was confirmed to have COVID - a mystery case that’s caused ‘extreme concern’.

Victoria funds lockdown support for business, blasts federal government

But the Federal government has hit back, with Scott Morrison saying Victoria has had generous funding from Canberra, and it wanted to “ensure Victoria doesn’t close itself again”.

Federal minister tells out-of-work Victorians to head to Centrelink — but they're unlikely to qualify for a payment

Religious fundamentalists railroad democracy

 For years the Wasps kept the Catholics a nd Jews at bay. They believed them to be dangerous. Howard cosied up to the brethren.

We need to stress again that authoritarianism is underpinned by religion. Australians need to decide whether they prefer a progressive secular future or a continuation of our trend to elect fundamentalist MPs and further Christianise our three tiers of government.

Both the Liberal National Party (LNP) and Australian Labor Party (ALP) leadership remain obsessed with pandering to the illusory “Christian vote”. This alone perpetuates our status as a "soft theocracy".

But taking political candidates from Pentecostal and evangelical churches and packing more Christians into parliament puts a distinct strain on a viable democracy. 

Religious freedom is indeed a civil right for all — including the true public majority who do not practice a particular religion and who do not want any form of religion forced upon them. The problem with overzealous people of faith is they claim spiritual superiority to “know God’s plan.” Really? How?

We need to avoid religion becoming weaponised to assert Christian dominionism — with its ultimate aim to kill democracy and enthrone Jesus.

FAKE NEWS AND MISINFORMATION EXPOSED

 

NO MORE LOCKDOWNS: LET VACCINE CONSPIRACISTS GET INFECTED

I was vaccinated on Friday. Now a voice in my ear keeps whispering: “This is Bill Gates. Buy Microsoft.” No, wait. The thought in my head is actually: Enough! There’s no excuse left for another lockdown. Let conspiracy theorists die from the virus, if that's their choice. We've almost finished protecting the vulnerable, and that's enough.

It goes to show what Andrew Bolt imagines equality is. He's opinion is total unsubstantiated gaslighting of those who simply don't have the same freedom of choice, the privilege he has. His level of risk is apparently the same as that of front line workers, essential workers the homeless or those who survive on a weekly pay packet and support a family. The very idea that we all have an "equal choice", face equal risk and have an equal chance of contracting Covid can only come from an ignorant selfish asshole in a position of privilege. Currently the evidence is that the vaccination rollout will continue until June 2022 and Bolt has had his jab in May 2021.

 That's a level  of privilege that the majority of Australians don't have. Bolt was vaccinated on Friday did he have to stand in line and wait for 4 hours like some Victorians did? What about those that can't or their doctors simply can't accommodate them because they still haven't sufficient vaccine? Yep Andrew Bolt is simply a selfish asshole who inconvenienced saying out loud "I'm alright Jack get out of my way" Currently it's predicted that herd immunity or full vaccination won't be reached until June 2022. Bolt makes no mention that on global comparison  Australia ranks over 100th among nations being competently vaccinated. 

Three things are immanently necessary all In Morrison's juridiction 1) effective quarantine 2) effective vaccine and rapid rollout and 3) JobKeeper when and if lock downs are necessary. 4) Andrew Bolt as the coal mine canary to test and prove Covid-19 is non existent in critical exposure sites he claims are "safe". Currently Morrison's LNP has failed on all counts. Bolt claims he knows the way but it's execution remains a tight held secret.

 

VIRUS THEATRE: NEW RESEARCH EXPOSES THE FOLLY OF SOME “PROTECTION”

Call it "virus theatre" - theatrically wiping down even street signs to stop the virus. Or wearing face masks out in the open air. New research confirms that won't do much at all. The main way this virus is transmitted means a lot of our protections make little sense or difference.

Yet another virus myth is exposed: That this coronavirus is often spread by droplets that stay on things such as lift buttons and tables. 

This belief fed pandemic paranoia, pushing us to take ineffective precautions and stage crazy “virus theatre”.

That included council workers washing down roadside posts and street-crossing signs, and companies “deep cleaning” offices.

It also encouraged governments to play down a great danger in many quarantine hotels, while meanwhile forcing Australians to wear face masks outdoors, where the risk of infection is about zero.

Here we have an Aussie "whinger" not really an informative critic but a "whinger". Someone who doesn't believe in taking the best of care and precaution but just the minimal is sufficient why? Because he doesn't suffer from the level of risk. However, coming from the voice of the most unsocial, the least welcoming, prick in Australia we are meant to stand to attention. Bol is someone who doesn't really give a shit about his neighbors or others. He criticizes without offering how any of his alternatives might even be executed. For him all solutions are simple never complex because others don't matter. He's the living breathing caricature of the worst Australian, the last person you'll ever see with his shoulder to the wheel helping out. He's security bound and if out in the world wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire. 

His claim that "we've almost completed protecting the vulnerable" defies logic not just of the Australian experience but from that experienced by other nations far better vaccinated than we are. Does Bolt listen to any news other than Murdoch's? It appears not.

Trump uses charm power while media fumes

 Image result for Images of charm power

Donald Trump defied so many media predictions, and not just by winning the election. He's assembled a top team, hit the ground running and is now using charm with politicians and business leaders in a way Barack Obama did not. This insight into his first week suggests he will get plenty done.

1 "Charm Power" is this what Bolt call's Trump wandering into the dressing rooms of his Miss world contestants unannounced whenever he chose. Is that what Bolt calls the word fo a snake oil salesman he "seems" to be a force for change? "He's assembled a top team, hit the ground running and is now using charm with politicians and business leaders in a way Barack Obama did not."Bolt What has been noted by white house staffers is that this has been the worst transition in living memory. People who have been appointed haven't a clue what they have been appointed to and the now President is depressed  and watches an inordinate amount of TV. Yes the nations media does fume because all they are invited to is news that they are going to be locked out in preference for media selected exclusively by Trump's team of Breitbart opinionators "Journalists who were allowed into the room captured pictures" expresses this exclusivity and is  reminiscent of the photos taken of that special invitation to "dinner" with Obama and dignitaries that turned out to be a "lunch" at the Alfalfa Club in Atlanta to which he was taken by Rupert Murdoch with a News Corp photographer in tow for the the sole purpose of putting him on the front page of  Sydney's Daily Telegraph to boost him. In truth it was a Murdoch propaganda shoot for  Tony nothing more which turned out  making him look more a fool and a Murdoch marionette. 
 Well Trump had a similar photo shoot signing Executive Orders one changing the abortion policy. He was surrounded by only men all smiling and "using their charm power" to dictate the lives of women and give cause to America's largest ever protest. Any media worth their salt pointing the sexist nature of that photo were said to be fuming Trump haters by none other than "his" press.
 Strange isn't this what's being blogged by Andrew Bolt who only less than 3 months ago was News Corp's leading Trump hater. His 180 degree turn around never explained just ignored

More fake news from Trump-maddened Fairfax

 

Yesterday the Sydney Morning Herald spread fake news that Donald Trump had used two Russian prostitutes. Today more fake news, as the Herald  falsely claims Trump's daughter Tiffany is a "fake" voter - voting when
"On November 27, he tweeted that he "won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally". The fact-checking website PolitiFact rated his claim "Pants on Fire"." Is Andrew Bolt suggesting this didn't happen and that this is "fake news" or is he just creating a smoke screen for  why all this has come about in other words the context is missing.
That there was voter fraud of over 3 million votes if Trump is to be believed. that he won the popular vote in the USA. "Trump has repeatedly made the unsubstantiated claim that the 2016 election was tainted by massive voter fraud. He has not provided any credible evidence to back up the claim." What are the odds that this will all come to nothing.
However what Trump said isn't fake he did say it but what he has said has been declared bullshit even by Republicans.  The fact that that he said it and his daughter and some of his staff were registered to vote in two places makes him look the fool. The SMH were reporting on accusations made and that too was true. They didn't report that they were fraudulent Bolt's distraction. Official from both parties clearly stated "We are not aware of any evidence that supports the voter fraud claims made by President Trump,"  a majority of them Republicans, said in a statement on Tuesday. in response to the President's accusation. bolt's going into bat for a man he declared he hated less than 3 months ago. Why he works for News Corp.

 Bourke Street: Government's focus on terrorism masks the real threats to our safety

Why no royal commission into this real detention crisis, PM?

Malcolm Turnbull called a royal commission into juvenile justice in the Northern Territory just 10 hours after seeing a biased ABC report on warders allegedly mistreating inmates. So why won't he call a  royal commission into juvenile justice in Victoria on inmates bashing warders - and now running riot outside detention centres as well as inside?

  A Royal Commission into detention in Victoria would be too much of an embarrassment to the Liberal Party and just how much Social Services were neglected by the previous Liberal Government. It would however provide more work for Bolt trying to deny it. Since Dan Andrews has come into power. There has been a drop of 5% in offender under 25 and the largest drop being in those between 15-19. It's not what Bolt wants to present as it doesn't boost his argument. However while fewer are offending those that are are committing or being charged with more crimes. The reasons for this remain unexplained Bolt points multiculturalism but that isn't born out by the statistics either.  So if little of what he says is born out by the statistics what's his motivation other than stirring up the political divide so it doesn't fall focus on the increasing economic division between the haves and have have nots.

Labor's "victims" owe us Centrelink money

 

 Labor  can't be trusted to look after  taxpayers' money if most of the welfare recipients it promotes as victims of the Turnbull Government's Centrelink crackdown  have in fact been   overpaid. Embarrassing for Labor, and a worry for the country.

 Here is Bolt  defending the indefensible pulling out a few hundreds and thousands off the Centerlik cake to tell us the cake automated system is fine and correct and the 52 ,000 letters sent out  daily declaring you owe us money  isn't a method of extortion?  Those 18 of 52 people proves the system works.
Well why have Centerlink gagged it's staff who have complained about doing the job. Complained about the stress being generated by a error filled system that assumes guilt rather than innocence and ignores the probability of it's errors.  Centerlink has been accused  of doing the same as others before them who have been charged with with using the law to commit fraud.  Centerlink staff have been silenced on the advice of lawyers because they just might provide evidence of prior knowledge of  error and ignoring it which is what in fact is occurring and is illegal in so many ways. Bolt's just a paid distraction of alternative facts that 18 people on welfare are guilty.

Trump orders spell trouble for Turnbull's refugee swap

Donald Trump's draft executive orders spell trouble for Malcolm Turnbull's strange and murky deal with Barack Obama to send over our detained boat people in exchange - it seems - for taking "refugees" from Costa Rica.

  Bolt's last hurrah says it all his gloating is for nothing because he doesn't know what it is he's even talking about. If Bolt's right we will be forced to watch him crow. If he's wrong he'll just go silent and let his blog pass to the wicket keeper and be forgotten. You see he moderates his blog so no complaints are shown. It's not news only propaganda with a single intent to prove Malcolm Turnbull an unworthy PM. There are no principles here just on going white-anting by those pretending to be Liberals in a democracy.

Queen's Chaplain sacked for defending Christianity

And so a civilisation rots and dies. First, the provost of a Scottish cathedral gives readings from the Koran which deny the divinity of Christ. Then, when one of the chaplains of the Queen, the alleged "Defender of of the Faith", protests  he is forced to resign.

 Queen's Chaplain sacked for defending Christianity

 How is it that a self proclaimed agnostic a person who claims to be a Doubting Thomas when it comes to god is such a Calvinist  ideologue when he claims not to be. Can you be both an agnostic and a crusader both at the same time?  He even accuses the faithful of heresy. Has Bolt's conversion  like Paul's taken place while on holidays Hallelujah?
"And so a civilisation rots and dies. First, the provost of a Scottish cathedral gives readings from the Koran which deny the divinity of Christ. "Then, when the Queen's chaplin, the alleged "Defender of of the Faith", protests it is the chaplain  who is required to make a choice simply because Bolt's first love tradition dictates it. Bolt  says he was "forced" his wording actually is he was "sacked" unfairly. Tradition was the reason and tradition is what Bolt adheres to above all resisting change. However Bolt has taken a lefty stance and declares royal tradition wrong and need of change.
Let's get things straight whose who here the Provost of the Scottish Church is Holdsworth and Gavin Ashenden is the Queen's Chaplin. Bolt's jumped in with his paywall link to Mammom News Corp to sell you this otherwise free story about Christendom.
Holdsworth the Provost chose not to engage with Ashenden's criticism of him in the form of meaningless debate  but he engaged with Ashenden according to Bolt politically however it seems it was Ashenden who started the public criticism involving the Queen. According to Bolt it was Holdsworth  because he's gay and invited a Muslim to church. Bolt needless to say has simply put the cart before the horse as to who started the bru ha.  It would seem Ashenden's criticism wasn't as moot a point as Bolt would have us believe and it was a very political one and not from the Church's position but from the Crown's. Ashenden had broken with tradition and knew it.  If tradition is what Bolt believes in so dearly why is he a left winger on this shouldn't he be calling for Ashenden's beheading. The tradition of keeping the royalty neutral was in danger " Oh a Muslim was involved and that takes precedence over everything Christ wasn't just a man and Bolt isn't just an agnostic. Ashenden has excercised his his not so free will because conservative tradition dictated it he "had the choice of remaining a queen’s chaplain and keeping mum about important issues or resigning so he could speak his mind." and he resigned. Bolt's Banner "Queen's Chaplain sacked for defending Christianity" Is bullshit once again. However it's anti gay, anti Muslim and anti tradition and anti monarchist.


 

 

Law and disorder in Victoria

 Image result for Images of the lack of Law and order in Victoria

Today's Herald Sun tells the tale. There would hardly be a Victorian now who does not accept that crime in their state  has gone wildly out of control.  The Socialist Left government of Victorian premier Daniel Andrews acts like an authoritarian in every area but the one that counts: law enforcement.

  How typical of The Herald Sun to blame Dan Andrews for  the lack of attention given by the previous Liberal government to the overcrowding in youth detention centers that have been out of control long before Labor came to power. Bolt doesn't actually highlight the fact 36,000 youth juvenile offences have occurred in Victoria in 2015 it would dull his argument. Nor does he mention the need Andrews has to add 2,500 extra police on and the rebuild of detention centers. How bad did the Liberals leave the state of Victoria in it's shocking. How little did they pay attention to social services. The mentally deranged driver was known to all social services but was free and not considered a threat. All this didn't occur under Labor's watch.
Apart from car theft and assault most other crimes have in fact dropped. However Bolt likes to focus on juvenile crime committed by Africans and Muslims which in the total picture are in fact minimal. Law and Order and Jails were a non event for Baillieu and Napthine as was overcrowding and the increase youth crime why? Because the reality of the increasing lack of opportunity among kids would be made evident and much wider changes would need to be put in place. If they lost the election then they could rely on the Herald Sun to put it on the front page and Bolt to boost it."Today's Herald Sun tells the tale. There would hardly be a Victorian now who does not accept that crime in their state  has gone wildly out of control. " Bolt. However Bolt avoids analysis history statistics and any reasoned effort at cause and effect explanations. His preference is hype to boost conservative politics instead  what he focuses on just become a tool.

Centrelink staff told not to fix mistakes in debt notices – whistleblower | Australia news | The Guardian

Chris Porter an Andrew Bolt hero is Minister for Social Welfare and it's new system of policing where your guilty of transgressions until you prove your innocence. Centerlink now has a no admission to any errors policy it appears and are under legal advice. The result the staff feel like Nazi bureaucrats were made to feel and if asked to say they were just doing their job. If human your placed between a rock and a hard place. It seems there are not enough persons working in Social Welfare that have empathy at home unlike Andrew Bolt tending to News Corp uninformed opinions.

Liberal MPs "fear" Christians

It says something sad about the ideological drift of the Liberals that Christian members are now seen as a threat and part of a "takeover" that inspires "fears": "Liberals MPs have spoken out over fears church groups are attempting to 'seize control of the party' in a grassroots takeover."

  Conservatives hate Christians more they ar way beyond 'fear'.  Bolt the self proclaimed Agnostic is Anti- the Pope, Anti- the Gosford Anglican Church, Anti - Catholics against Pedophilia, Pro Exclusive Bretheren , Pro Mormons,  and other weird sects. Yet he claims to be non religious but only special one of the elect. He sounds very much a Dutch Calvinist to me. The question unanswered is what does he say the Jehovah Witnesses when they knock?
Somehow "ideological drift" is unexplained. However it appears as far as Bolt is concerned if you are a lefty and a Christian god-botherer your worse than an Agnostic. It says something sad about the ideological drift of the Liberals that Christian members are now seen as a threat and part of a "takeover"  
 I was always lead to believe the DLP the right wing Catholics of the Labor movement  where Tony Abbott sprung were the back stabbers and people like Bolt the Agnostics were the swingers that weren't to be trusted because they tended to be left of the anti- commie Micks. Bolt claims he's Agnostic and not right wing  a traditional independant thinker. That alone sounds a load of bollocks to me "a traditional independant thinker" is an oxymoron and we know Bolt is one. Does anybody actuall believe his verbal shit? He also says his favorite  smell in the the world is shit as well as his wifes it's what he puts on the garden in and outdoors no doubt."I spread 50kg of the stuff around the garden at the home in the tiny town we’re gradually moving to. To me, the smell is of a garden 
 To my wife, all that is pure chicken shit and a stench that creeps malevolently as far as Melbourne, where she will stay until the rains have smothered the stink. "
Obviously his wife bends over backwards for Bolt who spends a lot of time hiding
 Hmm. I know. My life really does lack some outward excitement, yet this is now what gives me maximum pleasure. But I did buy a painting. Bolt has always been a braggart looking for sympathy.

Pope's academy tells priests to teach global warming

Once the Catholic Church decreed the sun revolved around the earth. Now this mad Pope is at it again:  "The Vatican’s Pontifical Academy of Sciences   has concluded that global climate change is real and is caused, at least in significant part, by human activity. The new guidelines suggest ... priests .... will share this with their congregation."
"This Pope is trying to turn the church to the worship of a new god: Gaia."Bolt. Thinking about the planet is secondary to Andrew Bolt . Apparently god intended man to think about himself first and be rewarded. Isn't that the crux of the Protestant Ethic. Reap the rewards of the work of others and recieve god's blessing. That's always been Bolt's "ideological drift". There's no contradiction in moving to the country working in the garden with the intent to feed the Koalas. The Pope a wanker, or somebody is.

Subsidising polygamy

Why are we paying for lifestyle choices we consider so unhealthy and unproductive that we ban them by law? "Centrelink is ignoring Islamic polygamy, paying spousal benefits to Muslim families with multiple wives in an effort to save taxpayers’ money."  
Bolt's found another idea to sell you via his Paywall for the the Herald Sun.  A beat up of  a situation that Centerlink has been aware of for years and one that's not strictly Muslim.   That are polygamous relationships  are ripping off Centerlink. Centerlink however doesn't seem to agree with Bolt these claims are in fact costing us less. But as usual Bolt is selective in his attraction to the story because it's Muslim specific and biased against the religion. 
  Australians in general are doing the same thing if not costing us more money in Welfare and they have probably been doing it in greater numbers for a longer period  than Muslims.
 The fact that Centerlink  know and don't police it tells more about the rationality behind the system than the morals involved in polygamous relationships. Is Centerlink the moral police no but Andrew Bolt certainly is eager to be.
 Humans adjust to survive Centerlink doesn't. Muslims take second wives under strict religious conditions unlike non Muslims. If not adhered to they are Haram or living in sin. Bolt ignores the moral diferences. So if persons are breaking the strict  religious code of Muslim ethics they aren't Muslim. Nevertheless Bolt ignores that these families by the way aren't doing anything illegal. So what's Bolt's bug? Christians Australians are doing the same and claiming the maximum possible off welfare why is Bolt being Muslim specific?  Why  is he so biased? Oh yes we forgot he's just being a normal ultra racist, Islamophobic and  ultra Assimilationist. He has a long list of complaints in his little black book. Basically Andrew Bolt's a second generation Aussie who exists on the fringe of multicultural Australia with which we have and understanding.  He's a prick we don't want and he knows we think so. What can you do with someone born here who has spent over half his life feeling he doesn't belong and the other half pretending he things have changed.
Above is a lesson for Bolt and Centerlink
Andrew Bolt overlooks the very essence of his own profession critical analysis, the social construction of reality and it's testing. The Sociology of Knowledge isn't meaningless to Bolt it the heart and soul of his perspective. Bolt  has chosen a side a a very minority side that says if your not with me your against me. In the main everybody is against him. " Hmm. I know. My life really does lack some outward excitement, yet this is now what gives me maximum pleasure. ".  Bolt even writes of his aloneness and it's not lonliness. His aloneness is his social reality was constructed years ago by the narrow mindedness of his small world upbringing. Travel doesn't break those chains. To agree to a statement that says" That there is an in principle objection to a doctor deliberately helping a patient comitt suicide" and declaring there to be a universal principle is denying that reality is socially constructed and in constant change. Therefore society can be readily changed if realized that the one principle doesn't fit all is taken into account. With the longevity of life extended comes complications that no longer fit this rock solid principle.
 The idea that all doctors even agree to that principle is  a denial of reality a figment of a singular imagination. If reality is so conflicted journalists are duty bound by their methods and standards to reveal that and question all sides of the argument putting it before us. To say that the ABC doesn't do that beggars belief. Whether Bolt disbelieves it doesn't matter it is our most trusted news and information provider.

More Doctors Confessing To Intentionally Diagnosing Healthy People With Cancer To Make Money 

 It happens more often than you can imagine, but more doctors are finally getting caught in the act of misrepresenting their oath and fraudulently diagnosing healthy patients with cancer to turn a quick buck from kickbacks on chemotherapy poisons.

To say that journalists are all just opinionaters like Bolt is the denial of the very practice of journalism itself and all that exists rhetoric without substance.   So Bolt prefers the USA where today the rhetoric about fake news is so strong that it can't be defined. Donald Trump doesn't lie and Bolt who in Octber condemned the man is now normalizing him. That flipping and flopping for vested interests sake is and example of what  Australia could become in 20 years  if the US is the guide to future. 50% living life below the poverty line not knowing the truth but under permanent surveillance a new meaning given to Democracy. The media will be flooded with Andrew Bolt's but he will be a very forgotten yesterday's man. 
As for voluntary euthanasia the electorate might prefer laws that  give individuals more choice but Bolt is arguing for the reverse in Birth , Marriage  and even Death which is significantly different from what he claims are freedoms individuals are entitled to and what he's fighting for.
