You don't have a constitutional right to things which are designated as dangerous, whether or not you believe in that designation. — Metaphysician Undercover

I don't think you know how a constitution works.

A supposed leaked "Five Eyes" dossier found its way to the press, and if true the revelations are damning to the CCP. Censorship, the destruction of evidence, the suppression of science and transparency, and the typically communist blame-shifting might place us in a cold war with China if we aren't there already.

Perhaps most damningly, the dossier states that Chinese authorities denied that the virus could be spread between humans until Jan. 20, "despite evidence of human-human transmission from early December."

The file is similarly unsparing about the World Health Organization (WHO), stating that it toed the Chinese line about human-to-human transmission despite the fact that "officials in Taiwan raised concerns as early as December 31, as did experts in Hong Kong on January 4.”

As of Friday night, the WHO's official Twitter account still featured a tweet from Jan. 14 that stated: "Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China."

When asked about Sweden, the WHO's Executive Director of its Health Emergencies Programme, Dr. Mike Ryan, seemingly praised the no-lockdown approach as a "future model".

Sweden’s approach, Dr Ryan said, was a good example of how western societies could reach a “new normal”.

“What it has done differently is it has very much relied on its relationship with its citizenry and the ability and willingness of its citizens to implement self-distancing and self-regulate,” he said. “They have implemented public policy through that partnership . . . Sweden represents a future model if we want to return to a society that we do not have to close.”

Sweden is a model for the new coronavirus normal, says WHO

For Christ's sake: Fox News is not a credible source.

I don't trust Fox News or the CCP so this story is moot to me

What’s false about it?

I'm saying I don't know what's false or what's true about it.

It could all be fake, sure, but I’m not sure why they’d make it up.

Fox News propagandize to maintain Trump's/Republican's power in the US and CCP propagandize to maintain their power in China

They certainly lean in a particular direction and appeal to a certain segment of the population, but to say they propagandize to maintain Trump's/Republican's power in the US is a little on the conspiracy side. Unlike the documented evidence of hacks working with the DNC, there is no such evidence on the RNC/Fox News side of things.

Oh no it's the other side who do it, not our side, what we say is ok.

No need to pretend I said something I didn't. I'm just saying there is documented evidence of the DNC working with particular journalists for the purposes of influencing an election.

I have documented evidence that the DNC was paying people to vote for Biden. I think it was mostly stoners.

I doubt that.

I doubt that. — NOS4A2

That's because you are have swallowed the establishment narrative hook line and stoner.

You’re an odd duck, aren’t you?

Weasel words.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has been justifiably criticised for its indulgence of China, refusing to condemn its cover-up of the initial Covid-19 outbreak and obsequiously congratulating the People’s Republic on a belated lockdown.

More condemnation of the CCP is needed in this thread (but not from Fox News).

Why do coronavirus sceptics and deniers continue to downplay the disease?

Think climate change denial on a smaller scale. Similar motives, similar backers, similar tools.

I take it you haven't seen an episode of Hannity, Tucker Carlson, Mark Levin, or Laura Ingraham lately.

Propagandize is putting it mildly.

Fox is televised excrement lol. Like, if you put an actual, live picture of a freshly laid out warm turd on TV and labelled it 'Fox', you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

... similar moral framework.

Nah, Yeah.

theres got to be a more robust tradition of poop jokes that the indigenous and colonizers alike can draw from? A humor bread line? Like, I get it that Australia is a nothing pile of dry sticks for everyone, for all of time, but still the internet can help overcome that, surely?

I don't think Aussie humor is particularly suited to the internet. It's too deadpan. Also we just kinda make fun of minorities as a kind of national pastime, and apparently this is frowned upon in certain circles.

It wouldn't be the first time the endlessly subtle australians outstripped the rest of us . damn. If your humor is that impossible to translate, I can only imagine what the music's like. Let us in, some day.
