This is creepy in a way I can't quite explain though. It's been over a year, most people understand COVID isn't a deadly plague that's killing their friends and family members left and right. So why the extreme measures now? None of it makes sense.

England and Europe are somehow worse. I have people in the former and they look and sound like prisoners when we speak to them. Lockdown 3 on the way. As bad as it is here, it's night and day worse there. Australia is somewhere even worse than that. And no one can still travel here. I don't know if Pres Trump was really gonna rescind the travel ban or not, but Biden hasn't yet.

Australia and New Zealand unfortunately have a lot of true believers, especially among the young. I don't think they realize how bad they have it. 😢 Not that I think the US is much better, but at least some states have some freedom again.

It seems New Zealand in particular is land of the woke. What a bummer.

It’s not that bad in Australia. I haven’t had to put on a mask even once.

Is that because you haven't left your house?

You just get arrested if you are 1k away from your house or you post something on Facebook about how covid is a hoax. That’s all

Today was the 1 year anniversary of "2 weeks to flatten the curve" here.

In commie Canada there going to play this to the very end. People here are left leaning and moderate at best. They have brain washed a large chuck of the public to believe that covid isn’t going away (3rd/4th/5th wave) bullshit. They also have absolutely shit the bed when it comes to securing vaccines, prolonging the whole ordeal.

I have known several Canadians and they all had a serious moral and intellectual superiority complex. it's weird

Yeah, Canadian here, having lived in both places, Americans never trash talked Canadians. Always spoke so glowingly. But Canadians like to trash Americans like they're better.

Most Canadians don't even realize we're a monarchy with a 90+ year old woman in England owning 89% of our land. The Governor General and PM need to basically be approved by England. Freedom of speech is long gone, we got no second amendment, and you can't even smoke on a patio anymore but yeah Canada is SO much better.

It sucks, I'm in Canada because I love my family and want to help protect them, but I would still feel way safer in the USA. Maybe we'll move down there one day.

Same in Australia re bashing Americans. We have been led to beleive, at least since the 70s, that Americans are somehow thick / all red-necks etc. This changed a lot once we all started interacting via the Internet, but people who grew up before that, especially boomers, have this ridiculous disparaging attitude towards Americans. It was probably some propaganda from the 60s.

Canada is a knock-off America that is somehow more expensive.

Still better than most of Europe though, which is just sad.

We call them "Liberals" up here in Canada. America hating is a requirement for them.

I have a few other names for them but that is their official party name. Justine Castro needs to go.

Grew up in Canada and, yeah, acting superior to Americans is a major part of Canadian culture.

I work with some and are surrounded by many others. It’s fucked up and sad. Happy I’m in fairly conservative Alberta

Well, to be truthful COVID-1984 is not going away, but it's really a glorified common cold that some people have an allergic reaction to.

We may as well lock down the entire population because peanuts exist.

Yes, I also believe we should ban cars because I saw an accident today.

Because "most people" may not be an accurate description.

Sure, more figure it out daily, but there's still quite a few sheep. Enough to keep the charade going so far.

because the vaccine roll out is killing people, and political dissent will not be tolerated. This is a globalist coup on world governments, and they will do anything to maintain control, including locking people up that disagree with the entire vaccine/passport/control agenda.
