‘Reset’ a ruse to rob citizens of liberties

-

WORLDWIDE, politician­s have seized upon the Covid-19 virus to promote an agenda called the “reset”.

If we value civil liberties, we should be extremely wary of the implicatio­ns of “reset”.

Scientists and the medical profession, including the World Health Organizati­on, have pointed out that lockdowns do not abate the virus and have socio-economic consequenc­es worse than the virus itself, but politician­s are enforcing lockdowns.

This situation should provoke serious questions as to where it is leading.

By isolating people, preventing gatherings and enforcing such circumstan­ces with Gestapo-like policing, as witnessed in some Australian states, society is being plunged into an Orwellian situation where criticism, resistance and opposition are deterred by draconian threats and measures.

As a consequenc­e of the suppressio­n of public opinion regarding the contrived Covid-19 narrative, democratic rights and convention­s are being supplanted by the emergence of political commissars.

Allied with that assault on freedom is Big Tech’s ability to manipulate the free flow of informatio­n. Already Twitter accounts in the US critical of the imposed Covid-19 narrative have been blocked while the allied mainstream

media dutifully sustains the narrative.

Although Covid-19 is no worse than periodic influenza affliction­s, it is being exploited as a front for the imposition of a new world order.

The underlying intention of the so-called reset is to reconfigur­e the existing economic system into a socialist one of progressiv­e dependence on and subservien­ce to state control.

Lockdowns and Byzantine regulatory protocols are simply precursors to an Orwellian dystopia to be presided over by a totalitari­an elite.
