Discussion of the Day
Everyone is a conspiracy theorist now!
Johana CSep 14, 20
My goodness! Has the pandemic brought out all the conspiracy theorists or what? It makes me so angry. Whilst these people talk about their freedom and how Covid19 is a hoax -- more people are dying. Disgraceful.

        It's all down to a person's mindset. They may view it as standing up for rights, being intellectual and challenging the status quo, but the greater population may view it as disruptive and see them as reckless, compulsive and argumentative individuals. Leave them to creating personal problems for themselves such as being arrested, being fined and detained.

                +Johana C, what an interesting question. My opinion is mine and based on evidence. Can you look up Pandemic in dictionary as the last pandemic was 1918 so what does this make U? What makes you angry that you dont have any evidence to prove these people wrong SO go get the evidence not get angry People are dying.last year in AUSTRALIA 1500 Austalians died of Coronavirus [ not upper respirtary track infections or Pneumonis - they were counted seperate] 180,000 were hospitalised in Australia, 330,000 treated by GP's the ones sent home who recovered fast were not countedNOW TELL ME AGAIN why you are angry this year but not last yearALSO all the other childish comments would you like to tell me why you didnt speak out last year for these people???

                      I tend to agree. I don't get it either. I don't see people marching to protest domestic violence or elders dying in nursing homes or a myriad of other critical problems that are around. Its very odd to me.

                            2020 will not be remembered in a good way. What with Covid 19 and the terrible fires & typhoons the earth is not a happy place to live in at the moment. Better days ahead for us I hope

                                They claim all sorts of things but they're usually the ones who wear masks when they go to a protest.

                                    We have become so accustomed to the lies, the distortions, the deceit - and all of it is deliberate, - by our Federal, State, Territory and Local Government politicians that it is no wonder Conspiracy Theories abound. We simply do not know what to actually believe, what is the Truth that we make up our own minds - even if they are only wild imaginings!

Naturally there had to be a "for" and "against" and if you were the one that was on the "for" team though you were strongly "against" the "idea" you still had to strongly debate against your will so your team could win. So who really knows whether the conspiracy theorists are really secretly going against their real beliefs just to stir the pot!!???

All these shows promote corrupt Government and a good guy who doesn't follow the rules and prevails against the Corrupt Government. Of course it is rubbish but there are so many of them that many people who watch them start to believe that this is what really happens and can not longer divorce Insane stupid TV from Reality.

Well, I haven't seen any pregnant women lately and I don't know anybody that is pregnant so obviously this means that people have ceased to procreate.

Do you believe in not limiting people freedoms during a pandemic (letting people dead)? Since the society - I reside - has never care about my ethnicity - I believe in letting people die! You treat society the same way society treats you!

People are dying in their 1000's and millions have had the virus. No hoax. Lock downs are a harsh response but it seems to be the only way to halt the progress of this virus. If everyone co operated the lock downs would be over in much shorter times. Makes me angry also. I feel so sorry for the police who are fed up and yet still try and show patience. Other countries have shown much stronger force so we are lucky are forces have much more restraint but these people would try the patience of a saint.
