Looks like big men who are out of shape.

So are most NHS security. And there's fewer of them.

"Anti-vax group Alpha Men Assemble"

Yes, there was a special report about their training camp on Channel 4 News this evening. It's Q Anon without guns. They think Boris Johnson's a Communist. I kept expecting Piers Corbyn and his racist mate to pop up, but sadly no. I expect they were busy stealing things from hospitals.

Edit: Oh look, there's a video.

And the powers that be will refuse to accept their part in radicalizing these forlorn souls, and sooner rather than later we will end up with another Jo Cox or David Amess. Or someone even more innocent, just going about their business in this dark corner of the neoliberal experiment.

Oh you're safe enough, you're not going to be watching 100 of them smash up your ICU and assaulting your colleagues.

I've seen this movie before and it doesn't end well.

Where's those sweeping police spy powers that just *had* to be passed now, eh?

Very worrying

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/202 ... e-militias

Counter-terrorism officials and police are increasingly concerned over the trajectory of the UK’s anti-vaxxer movement as it evolves towards violent extremism and the formation of US-style militias.

Boris Johnson is among those receiving direct security updates on individuals prepared to “undermine national health security”.

The movement’s more extreme elements are recruiting and strategising over the encrypted social media messaging app Telegram, with one UK anti-vaxxer channel asking for “men of integrity” to “fight for our children’s future”.

Anti-vaxxers have targeted scores of schools and recently stormed a Covid testing site. They were led by Britain’s most visible activist, Piers Corbyn, who subsequently urged people to burn down the offices of MPs who backed new restrictions.

All sovcits/footles purport to believe that there's magic forms of words that work like cheat codes for courts of law.

I imagine about 10% actually believe it, and the rest are just hoping to confuse the situation so they can indulge their petulance a little further.

[Andy McDandy]

It's the same con trick in a way as the old "Can you put some pound coins in my change, oh no, I need a fiver. let's start again...". Keep the target off balance and on the defensive, wind them up until they snap or give in.

[Boiler]

I'm getting bored with these twats now.

It’s werid how individual choice is only their individual choice.

This is applicable to many, many, many, many things. The high and mighty principles only really apply to you and yours...

Hana Horka: Czech singer dies after catching Covid intentionally

A folk singer from the Czech Republic has died after deliberately catching Covid, her son has told the BBC.

Hana Horka, 57, was unvaccinated and had posted on social media that she was recovering after testing positive, but died two days later.

Her son, Jan Rek, said she got infected on purpose when he and his father had the virus, so she could get a recovery pass to access certain venues.

The Czech Republic reported a record number of Covid-19 cases on Wednesday.

Mr Rek and his father, who are both fully vaccinated, both caught Covid over Christmas. But he said his mother had decided not to stay away from them, preferring instead to expose herself to the virus.

"She should have isolated for a week because we tested positive. But she was with us the whole time," he said.

Imagine doing that to your child and to your partner to whom you made a solemn promise, in sickness and in health.

What an utter, utter thundercunt.

In a not exactly surprising development, it looks like Clapton has decided to go down the Pro-COVID rabbit hole...

...OTOH Neil Young has had enough of Joe Rogan & Spotify...

...while outside of the music biz, Sarah Pain has apparently caught the covids - no surprises as to her vaccination status.

Has been for a while. Last year he did a single with Van Morrison, I've not heard it, but apparently in the lyrics they compare mask wearing to slavery.
