#ZeroCOVID

1 Beitrag1 Beteiligte*r0 Beiträge heute

Accompanied my Mom to doctor's appointment this morning. This was mainly for getting another prescription for her recurring gout issue. She got a physical checkup too. Her doctor & his MOA were masked up. None of the other medical clinic staff & no other patients were masked.

Location of masking report: Burnside Medical Clinic - office in lower part of building - there's a different office with same name on main level.

I blast highway to hell, almost every time I have to go to hospital for work or personal related reasons. It's hellish for #ZeroCovid disabled folks like me because our hospitals aren't really covid safe & they haven't been safe for a few years now. It is where Dad & big Auntie were infected. Mask policy returned to hospitals recently but almost all staff just wear the flimsy surgical blue masks. I wear my own N95s & use a nasal spray for additional protection.
I'll be playing highway to hell again at 10am because I have to go to VGH for a client meeting.

Gegen den #rechtsruck in antiautoritären, linken oder auch liberalen Bubbles! 🏴🏳️‍🌈

Ein gesamtgesellschaftlicher Rechtsruck verschiebt auch die eher "linken" Teile der Gesellschaft tendenziell nach rechts. So sind viele Diskussionen der letzten Jahre sehr von der Auseinandersetzung mit rechter Ideologie geprägt während die Ausgestaltung antiautoritärer Konzepte ausbleibt oder sogar als realitätsfern belächelt wird.

Über alle politischen Spektren hinweg scheint sich ein #alman Konsens breit zu machen: Es gibt ein Problem? Verbieten!!! Bestrafen!!!
Das klingt immer ganz hart und entschlossen, oder? In Wirklichkeit ist es das Gegenteil radikaler Politik. Nicht nur macht es unsere Welt immer autoritärer, sondern es löst auch keine Probleme. Das wissen wir bei #hanf, aber scheinbar halten es viele Leute für eine gute Idee Nazis zu verbieten #afdverbot oder Jugendliche Zuhause einzusperren #ZeroCOVID oder Sexarbeit zu verbieten.
Dadurch gibt es aber nicht weniger Nazis, mehr Gesundheit oder weniger Patriachat. Damit haben wir nur ein unfreundliches gesellschaftliches Klima sowie erschwerte Bedingungen für radikale Politik. Denn Brände, die unter dem Deckel eines Verbots schwelen, lassen sich kaum je löschen.

Unmasked colleague at LTC today, while I was walking out with my plant gift:
Why do so many people always gift you pretty things?

Me: I'm a genuinely kind, caring & thoughtful person. I don't work unmasked around anyone, especially vulnerable elderly folks. That's probably why you never get any gifts.
*Pointing to her unmasked face*
*invisible mic drop*

Reaction: Stunned into silence as I continued to walk out of the building.

She probably thinks I'm a total bitch now 😆
Oh well. She asked. I just answered, honestly 👌

If one would do a psychological profile of the #antivax community and compare with a profile of the #zeroCovid community, I bet one would see many similarities in personalities.

And these two online communities - even if they would eagerly deny it - have many things in common. Being isolated in their filter bubbles, for example.

Like the cult-like sectarian mentality and the fanatic agenda, where they cannot participate in a rational discussion beyond their own personal experiences.

I've just been informed that I need to find a new server if I want to write very long posts, so I'm looking for one. Since I'm #ZeroCOVID, I'm wondering whether zeroes.ca might be suitable. But I'm also from the USA. Does that server welcome members from this meth lab of a nation?
