Calling someone “trans woman” is evasive. An accurate denoscriptor would be ‘male woman’, but then the oxymoron would be too obvious to argue about, like ‘female rooster’ or ‘male hen’.

Humanity is one because Truth is one. Reason unites us. Deliberate in good faith even with madmen and tyrants… and the Good will follow.
There can be no “amnesty” where there is injury. Those who call for Covid amnesty are obstructing justice. Since only the victim can forgive the injury, amnesty is possible only for victimless offences.

Acquiescence to medical coercion, even if the mandated procedure were medically harmless, creates a precedent for the next mandated procedure, which may be harmful either by negligence or by design. Once this door is open, anything goes.

Those who acquiesced to medical coercion, took the vaccine and covered up their faces, those who demanded that everyone ought to be injected or punished for refusal, have exercised their own moral judgement. No amount of propaganda could excuse their collusion. We are either Human, capable of moral discernment, and thus deserving of moral status, or we are just deterministic animals, at the mercy of circumstances and political stimuli, innocent like animals, but by the same token morally worthless, without rights. Nevertheless, the unvaccinated have a moral obligation not to treat them as victims but as collaborators, because this is the only way to preserve their humanity. If people are treated as if they are not fully responsible for their actions on account of impersonal factors, then the underlying message is that they are not fully moral agents, therefore not fully human agents.
There can be no forgiveness without repentance and atonement; to forgive without satisfying these conditions would amount to normalising evil. Conversely, anyone who pleads moral incompetence is implicitly declaring themselves a lesser human, with lesser rights, on account of not being fully responsible for their own actions. This too is a moral choice.
They misrepresented deaths WITH Covid as deaths FROM Covid. That was a lie. They knew they were lying. They knew that Covid vaccines kill some people and they still made it mandatory, therefore mandated the killing of some people for the benefit of others. This is all you need to know to determine that they acted in bad faith in the beginning and committed mass murder in the end.
‘Suffering’ is a secondary value-judgement associated with the primary judgement of purposeless, meaningless pain. It has an intrinsic element of self-pity and is therefore not equivalent to ‘pain’, let alone to animal (non-human) pain. Making the value-judgement of ‘suffering’ about animal pain is a category mistake and naive anthropomorphism.
Logic is the only antidote to misinformation, not censorship.
The only way to defeat misinformation is to have a good grasp of the fundamental laws of logic. There are more than 100 recognised logical fallacies, but they are all reducible to just 3 laws: the law of non-contradiction (two opposite claims cannot be true at the same time and in the same respect, or, no claim can be both true and false at the same time and in the same respect), the law of excluded middle (a claim can be either true or false with no intermediate possibility), and the law of identity (everything is identical ONLY to itself, or, no two things are identical in every respect). The 3 laws are in fact just different articulations of the same One law of logical sense/meaning, and one could simply rely on non-contradiction to reach the same conclusions. These laws are not taught at schools, apart from University courses in philosophy or law; institutional dogmatism and the fallacy of ‘trusted sources’ are taught instead, under the guise of “critical thinking”. I have made significant effort to persuade the Australian department of education and the affiliated curriculum committee in to integrate these fundamental laws of logic into the national curriculum across all levels of eduction, as one of so called ‘cross-curriculum’ priorities. I received no encouraging response, possibly because the people responsible for designing the national curriculum are themselves ignorant of logic and are terrified of it. Understanding of the laws of logic makes you powerful, able to identify and defeat lies; the lack of such understanding makes you weak and psychologically dependent - a slave.

If your government really cared about misinformation then the laws of logic would be a cross-curriculum priority in primary and secondary schools. They do not teach logic, therefore they do not care about misinformation, therefore ‘misinformation’ is just an pretext for normalising surveillance and censorship.
Many people seem to believe that doctors wear masks during surgery to protect the patient. This is rather laughable. Doctors (chiefly surgeons and dentists) wear surgical masks to protect themselves from body-fluid splatter coming from the operated patient. While there is a lot of controversy around the question of benefits vs risks of masks during surgery, high quality pre-covid studies have shown that masks worn by surgeons actually increase the risk of postoperative wound infections in patients. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1853618/

Postoperative wound infections and surgical face masks: a controlled study - PubMed
It has never been shown that wearing surgical face masks decreases postoperative wound infections. On the contrary, a 50% decrease has been reported after omitting face masks. The present study was designed to reveal any 30% or greater difference in general…

The Election
I am not registered to vote. I refuse to delegate my speck of sovereignty for collective re-presentation, which would create a legal basis for political authority over me, in a society where collective understanding on objective terms is not yet possible. The truth is not decided by votes, nor can a moral wrong be made right by the prejudice of the majority. I am not part of that collective, I will not agree to disagree, I am not that kind of equal. I will let the equal ones choose their own rulers, and those rulers will know they have no legitimate claim of authority over me, despite having power over me, but every time power is illegitimately used it diminishes itself, it negates itself, reveals itself as an aberration, contrary to the metaphysical order of being. The only meaningful, reflexive mode of social engagement is to speak for oneself, act on one’s own moral authority, without mediation or representation. Moral sovereignty cannot be delegated or re-presented.

I expect Dan Andrews to “win” the Victorian election, precisely because this would humiliate Victorians the most. Dan’s stage persona is so exquisitely vile and morally perverse, a kafkaesque caricature of the anti-human. The populist theatre needs an emotive caricature in order to disgust, entertain, captivate, move, provoke, possibly even cure.
Those who reject the law of non-contradiction contradict themselves by speaking (an act that presupposes a common standard of meaning and truth). They are committing the ultimate transgression against existence, choosing the most hopeless form of nihilism. They are not just ‘mistaken’ within the framework of reason but reject reason as a principle, therefore reject humanity, all meaning, all truth and all being. Any interaction with them is hopeless; they speak but communicate nothing, they listen but understand nothing.
It is impossible to think a contradictory meaning or imagine a contradictory thing (try it); contradiction is a relation between meanings or hypothetical things. It is the essence of non-sense.

Instead of the Ministry of Truth I propose the Ministry of Sense. The Ministry of Sense, instead of censoring ‘misinformation’, occupies itself with refuting nonsense. It analyses beliefs to determine whether they contain contradictory premises and are therefore nonsense, with formal logical proofs presented for anyone to formally challenge.
Victimhood is such a popular strategy of self-elevation because ‘anyone can do it’, anyone can be a victim and use it to gain sympathy. Any other method requires extraordinary achievement.

Dear Senator Rennick,
Will you be attending the senate estimates session related to health policy, scheduled for 8-10 November? I hope you are willing to raise the questions I suggested previously (copied below) with the health minister.
Questions for the health minister:
1. Do you acknowledge that Covid vaccination occasionally causes death of healthy people, even if the overall outcome benefits most people?
2. If yes, do you acknowledge that when an employee is required to receive Covid vaccination as a condition of employment, that employee is in effect required to participate in a work-related activity where some percentage of employees are expected to die as a result of the mandated procedure?
Regards,
Michael Kowalik
