Covid Tyranny at Amherst College

Just how bad would Covid tyranny get if liberals had no opposition at all? To find out, we turn to the alternate realm of unmitigated moonbattery where the next generation’s opinions are installed — namely, college. From Amherst College in Massachusetts:

The restrictions include: indoor double-mask mandates, two Covid tests upon arrival, a bi-weekly testing requirement, limits on indoor gathering sizes, off-campus travel restrictions and an elimination of in-person dining services. …

Students will be permitted to visit the town of Amherst, masked when indoors, for the purpose of “conducting business” (i.e. opening bank accounts and picking up prescriptions). Students are not allowed to go to restaurants or bars.

Regarding athletic events,

Spectators are allowed but must be masked. No pre or post-game tailgating or celebrations will be permitted. Large events will be minimized and there will be no registered parties indoors on the campus grounds. No events with alcohol will be permitted at the beginning of the semester.

Those who don’t have fancy KN95 masks must attempt to breathe through double masks while inside campus buildings, including residence halls. However,

Students may unmask in their own dorm rooms. Alternatively, when indoors and outside of their residence halls, unvaccinated students must be masked at all times unless they are alone with the door closed. If outdoors, unvaccinated students must wear face coverings when a six-foot distance cannot be maintained.

But there won’t be many unvaccinated students, because vaccination is mandatory.

College kids are barely even at risk for Covid, which is a relatively mild disease on a par with the flu for young people.

No wonder Jane Fonda calls Covid “God’s gift to the Left.” If students learn nothing else at Amherst College, they will learn how to meekly obey irrational authorities. Students are charged $76,800 per year to be treated like zeks in a gulag.

World Economic Forum Continues to Celebrate Covid

When career traitor and Biden’s Climate Czar John Kerry promises to impose the Great Reset, he is talking about the dystopian totalitarian agenda developed by fellow globalists like those at the World Economic Forum.

You will own nothing and be happy about it, growl WEF social engineers. They want us to eat larvae. They want us to eat weeds. They want to read our heart signatures with lasers so that they can track our every move even if we are all forced to wear masks forever.

An earlier WEF video praised the pointless Covid lockdowns that crushed economies, freedom, and souls, because locking people in their homes reduces CO2, which is unclean according to leftist doctrine. In the video below, Klaus Schwab et al continue to boast that Covid hysteria is remaking the world more to their liking:

We will be atomized and alienated from each other. We will rarely leave our homes. When we do leave, we will be tracked.

Although home schooling is a great idea, remote learning has been a total failure, costing kids a year of education. WEF wants more of it anyway, presumably because it can be centrally controlled.

The individual liberty that makes life meaningful has no place in liberal conceptions of utopia, where every aspect of existence will be determined for us in advance.

Bullying the Maskless at School Board Meetings

American Marxists have traditionally relied on the incremental approach, but lately the preferred tactic has been to impose radical change quickly, before freedom lovers wake up and fight back. Not a moment too soon, grass roots resistance is taking shape. Because parents are enraged by the malevolent critical race theory and depraved LGBT propaganda force-fed to their children, not to mention pointless mask mandates that endanger their children’s health, they have been rising up at school board meetings.

Nails that stand up may get hammered down. Authorities are eager to assert their dominance, even in the relatively free states of Texas and Florida. If you really want to set them off, refrain from wearing a Covid obedience mask.

In Texas:

A woman was carried out of a Texas school board meeting Tuesday by two police officers while still in her seat over her refusal to wear a mask, district officials said.

The woman arrived at the Northside Independent School District board meeting in San Antonio wearing a mask but took it off, district spokesman Barry Perez told Fox News.

The NISD is inflicting a mask mandate on anyone who enters its facilities.

In Florida, where arrogant local school boards have overruled the executive order from Governor Ron DeSantis forbidding them from imposing mask mandates:

School board officials in Palm Beach County, Florida ordered the police to arrest and drag out a man for simply standing in the back of a room designated for unmasked individuals during a four-hour meeting over their draconian school mask mandate.

School board chairnazi Frank Barbieri commanded the unwashed I mean unmasked to sit. Those who failed to obey were dealt with forcefully, to demonstrate that the school board would not tolerate resistance. Everett Cooper received particularly harsh treatment:

Cooper was made an example by school board chair Barbieri and the other members sitting on the board. It was a demonstration of their power and the police were there to cement it. He now faces charges of disturbing the peace, resisting arrest, and trespassing.

A bystander took video of the police dragging him away:

The bullying is intended to intimidate regular Americans into quiet compliance. If we still are Americans, it will have the opposite effect. Everett Cooper’s arrest was a preview of the sort of country we will find ourselves in if we do not push back against liberals and push back hard.

Australian Media Versus “Those Doing the Wrong Thing”

To get Western populations to voluntarily surrender fundamental liberties and succumb to tyranny is a big lift for the statist media establishment. Australia’s is up to the job. Hard as it is to believe, this is not a parody:

There is no extreme of Covid tyranny occurring Down Under that the Democrat Party–liberal media axis of evil will not avidly inflict on the USA if we let it.

Ideal Covid Citizen

Now for a public service message on behalf of our rulers. A dutiful citizen exemplifying the approved mentality serves as an example to the recalcitrant by reminding us that we must never show our faces in public, because Covid:

Healthy Rescue Dogs Shot Because Covid

First, you let them take your guns. Before long, they impose martial law in the name of a supposed health crisis. Next thing you know, they are executing dogs. In Australia, world capital of Covid tyranny run amok, a group of dogs were shot by local officials so as to prevent shelter volunteers from traveling to rescue them.

A watchdog group, the Office of Local Government, says it was informed by the Bourke Shire Council that the dogs had been shot, The Sydney Morning Herald reports. The incident occurred in an attempt to prevent volunteers from another area, Cobar, from traveling to the location.

The volunteers can be thankful they weren’t the ones shot instead. That’s where this is headed.

The 160 mile drive could have resulted in the spread of Covid, because according to Australia’s rulers, the farther you venture from underneath your bed, the more Covid you spread.

Characteristically, moonbat authorities attempt to justify the unjustifiable by wrapping themselves in cultural Marxism:

[A] spokesperson for the Office of Local Government said, “OLG has been informed that the council decided to take this course of action to protect its employees and community, including vulnerable Aboriginal populations, from the risk of COVID-19 transmission.”

It is okay to shoot healthy dogs for no sane reason, so long as you mention sacred BIPOCs afterward.

NSW Premier Confirms: Covid Tyranny Is Permanent

Gladys Berejiklian, Premier of New South Wales, confirms the obvious. Covid tyranny, which has reached its apogee in Australia (see here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here), is not temporary. Two weeks to stop the spread has officially been extended to forever:

“So long as Covid is still around” means “so long as any of us are still around.”

Even if Covid surprises everyone by disappearing completely in the foreseeable future, many of the most tyrannical Covid measures would be equally justified from a health perspective by the flu or even the common cold. Curing Covid cannot end authoritarianism. Only effective pushback can.

Thankfully, resistance appears to be growing:

It is doubtful that regular people defending fundamental liberties will get any of the fawning media coverage that is lavished upon Marxist black supremacists who loot, vandalize, and commit arson.
