Orwellian Oz


Australia is on course to ban cash transactions in excess of $10,000. Worldwide, it's clear that the cashless society is coming, it's just a question of how soon. For Australia, it will be sooner rather than later. The primary reason for abolishing cash is CONTROL.


To films, football, beer and gambling, the bread and circuses of the modern world, will be added the cashless society in which our every transaction can be tracked and control becomes absolute. This transactional currency will be totally digital and amount to no more that a number in a database. It can be manipulated as desired by powers far beyond any individual's control, decreased by fines for what is deemed antisocial behaviour and perhaps augmented by rewards for displays of good citizenry (such as reporting ones neighbour for antisocial behaviour).

In such a system, it will be easy to block donations to organisations such as the BDS movement or any other group that the government does not approve of. Either overtly or covertly, a Chinese social credit score system will be introduced that will allow for restrictions to be imposed on travel both within the country and outside of it. Australia is already well on its way to such an Orwellian dystopia. Here is a chilling excerpt from a mindless article that appeared in the Brisbane Times. It's an opinion piece titled School kids already get free vaccines. Add one more and is written by Jenna Price, a columnist and academic at the University of Technology, Sydney.
So what can we do to improve the take up of flu vaccines in Australia? You can’t make people have immunisations although I’d very much like to. One positive step we could take is to roll-out a flu vaccination scheme through our schools. It would have to be free, added to the national immunisation program and funded by the federal government. Schools already do an excellent job of organising vaccination schedules; they provide the venue and the relevant health departments provide the vaccine and staff. As one school principal said to me, “We’ve already got the kids lined up. We could just add another jab to the schedule.” Every year without fail, that would reduce the spread.
Note the mindset of the journalist: You can’t make people have immunisations although I’d very much like to. If mandatory vaccination were put to a popular vote, Jenna Price would be supporting it. What's chilling however, is the focus on schools as a means of facilitating and eventually helping to enforce such vaccinations. For me, Australia has become an unsettling place to live which is why I choose not to live there. 

Even entering the country can be an unpleasant experience. On my last visit, following an overnight flight, I was taken aside by a customs official, given the third degree and told that my "attitude sucked". In fact I was too tired to have an "attitude" because I hadn't slept on the flight and was struggling to coherently answer the questions that were being put to me. The attitude of customs officials and airport police is that they can feel they can say and do what they want to anyone who attracts their attention. As another return to Oz is imminent, I'll be on my guard as I pass through Perth airport because last time I was certainly caught off guard. 





There's no point in mentioning the limitless authority that ASIO has to spy on Australian citizens. Australia has become a surveillance state as well as a police state. With the arrival of 5G cellular networks, the extent of the surveillance will increase further and limits on police powers will decrease proportionately.

Access to alternative news sources is also been curtailed. BitChute, an alternative site to YouTube for uploading videos, is an example of just one of the many sites that have been blocked at the whim of ISPs. This just makes it harder for someone casually browsing the Internet to chance upon alternative news. In Australia, mainstream television is unwatchable and newspapers unreadable. An accumulation of laws, regulations and ordinances have subjugated Australians, many of whom dutifully line up or have their children line up for flu shots and any other recommended vaccinations. They fear the media-created Moslem bogeyman and accept Orwellian surveillance and police brutality as the price to play for being kept safe.

The Quenelle

The Jerusalem Post continues to be a fertile source of anti-Zionist information that I wouldn't otherwise be aware of. Today's discovery was an article referring to the quenelle that admittedly I was a little late in hearing about. Here is the article:
PROMOTER OF ISRAEL BOYCOTT SET TO ENTER BELGIAN PARLIAMENT 
A large political movement in Belgium has placed a key promoter of campaigns to boycott Israel on its federal elections ticket, ensuring his place in parliament.
The Belgian League Against Anti-Semitism, or LBCA, on Thursday protested the placing of Simon Moutquin, a co-secretary of the BDS Belgium movement, on the list of candidates in the Brabant region for the left-wing Ecolo party. 
Ecolo and its sister party Groen operate in Belgium’s federal parliament as one bloc and may become one of its largest in Sunday’s elections, according to multiple polls. 
Neither Ecolo nor Groen has officially endorsed BDS, an acronym for the Boycott, Sanctions and Divestment movement against Israel. But Ecolo’s placing of Moutquin at the top of a regional lists means he is guaranteed to enter the federal parliament, according to Joel Rubinfeld, the president of LBCA.
Ecolo-Groen is “preparing to place in parliament a Trojan horse of anti-Semitism,” Rubinfeld wrote. 
Last month, a video of a representative of the Ecolo-Groen bloc who handles anti-discrimination issues in Brussels, Sihame Haddioui, surfaced showing her performing the quenelle – a gesture invented by the French Holocaust denier and anti-Semite Dieudonne M’bala M’bala. Declared a quasi-Nazi hate gesture in France, the movement signifies merely opposition to the establishment and to Zionism, Dieudonne said. 
The video was from several years ago. Ecolo-Groen has not taken any disciplinary action against Haddioui, who said she regretted performing the gesture. 
Another Ecolo-Groen party leader from Brussels shared on Facebook a false conspiratorial news article in 2017 titled “Ex-NSA agent Edward Snowden reveals that the head of Islamic State works for Israel, US.” He has not been disciplined.
The quenelle even has its own Wikipedia entry and even though Dieudonne M’bala M’bala - remember he's a Holocaust Denier and anti-Semite - first used the gesture in 2005, it seemed to go viral around 2013. To quote from the article:
When French footballer Nicolas Anelka of West Bromwich Albion F.C. performed the quenelle to celebrate scoring a goal on 28 December 2013, the gesture, which was already considered "something of a viral trend" in France, became an international news story and one of the most searched terms on Google. Anelka described the gesture as anti establishment rather than religious in nature, and said he did a quenelle as a "special dedication" to his friend Dieudonné.
The footballer was eventually fired from his club and Dieudonné was prevented from entering the United Kingdom when he wanted to visit in 2014 to support his friend, the usual totalitarian responses. Furthermore, in 2016:
Dieudonné M'bala M'bala was refused entry at the Montréal–Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport by Canada Border Services Agency on the grounds of prior criminal convictions and forced to return home. He had been previously scheduled to perform 10 shows in Montreal.
Dieudonné in 200911 February 1966 (age 53)
He has a website at https://dieudosphere.com/ and is currently alive and well. There's lots of images out there showing people using the gesture. Figure 1 shows just one of them and it's topical given the news that "an episode of the new Netflix series “Historical Roasts” mocks Anne Frank with one-liners, angering some viewers, particularly in the Netherlands, where the teen diarist hid from the Nazis". I've posted earlier in 2017 about Anne Frank (see this link).

All three performers in the Netflix show were Jewish but it would seem that the Zionists have lost their sense of humour and now see anti-semitism raising its ugly head everywhere (like in the Whack-a-Mole game), even amongst Jewish people:


The Zionists are doing their best to whack each mole as it appears but as anyone who has ever played this game in an arcade knows, it's damn difficult to whack all those heads. The tide may be turning about them. One can only hope.
