The Last Day of General Containment in Germany: Open Thread
Still travelling, regular posting resumes soon.
Unexpectedly, still travelling, so regular posting will be delayed until Monday. In the meantime, I would just like to say that mask mandates and green passes have always been ridiculous, but never so ridiculous, as today, the very last day of them.
Maybe it comes back in the fall, but right now I feel enormously relieved, and in fact a great joy about this, like a man finally released from prison. A lot of people seem to have positively enjoyed or been indifferent to the past two years, but I found them to be almost unendurable.
The restrictions have been unforgivable, I won‘t ever forget what Merkel‘s government did.
DO NOT LET DOWN YOUR GUARD. Look at what is happening in Australia and in California. In CA the legislature is proposing bills that will take away free speech- Senate Bill 1390 prohibits any person/entity from making statements the State deems untrue or misleading by any means including on the internet or ads. Then they have Assembly bill 2098 which classifies anti-covid medical opinion as unprofessional conduct and subject to discipline by medical boards and potentially the loss of their licenses. And of course they still want everyone vaxxed- see SB871 and AB 1993. The bills require EVERYONE who wants to work or go to school to get covid vaxxed. All of this is being done with little notice and no attention from the MSM. They are also re-creating the Gestapo by a bill that would require law enforcement to enforce public health guidelines of lose their funding. There is more too about required testing and disclosure to third parties without consent. And oh yes, they want to make 12 year old children capable of consenting to vaccinations without parental consent or notification before or after!!
