I don't get hot under the collar about criticism of Trump, I get sick of people defending Dan's incompetence that is actually affecting us all to attack a former president on the other side of the world which has no impact on us.
Well, except for when people in Australia decide to copy America, have their own protests during a pandemic and started a second wave that crippled this state.
So I see you refuse to answer the question, did you support them or not?

Thank you for the concern, but there's no need to be worried.

Sure, and if China responded three weeks earlier in containing the Wuhan outbreak, 95% of infections would have been prevented.
But we don't hear a peep from the left about this.
this this this this this
because people still want to be able to buy cheap useless world destroying shit.
You cant fix stupid, turns out you cant quarantine it either!

Nothing that happened in the US (or Australia for that matter) since February 2020 has been China's fault in any relevant sense. It's only useful for apportioning blame and telling people to look somewhere else, which is exactly why the neo-Nazi ex-president of the US wanted to do it. He obviously sucked you in, Jezza.

Of course I’m. not a racist.What a stupid question.You’re not doing your cause any good by asking irrelevant questions like that.What the hell has the BLM protests got to do with how Trumpian mishandled the pandemic?Total deflection and red herring on your part.By the way,you didn’t deny that you are a Trump supporter,so I take that as a yes then?

The twice elected Premier of Victoria, the right honourable Daniel Andrews is doing just that as his team are. I deal with crises everyday including life and death crises, like the Premier you need a cool head to sort through the information and make decisions that are safe for individuals and others. The temporary lockdown is a good admittedly strong reaction to this.
Managing other people’s behaviour however is another matter: be it the panic supermarket panic buying, the anti vaxxers demonstrating in Flinders Street or the frenzy whipped up by Murdoch and his mates.
Heady times needs a cool hand. A Velvet glove covering a hand of steel.
There wouldn't be a crisis if the Andrews "best in class " contact tracing and hotel quarantine weren't so appallingly inept
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I've already said I wasn't 10,000 times but whatever.
It's very simple, you condemned Trump for holding political rallies so I simply wanted to know if you condemned mass protests? It seems you support protests because they were left wing nutjobs but condemn rallies by a Republican.
Now we've cleared that up we know you're as one sided and biased as your mental health mate.

This is my final word on the matter,because it’s going nowhere.I supported the BLM cause because it’ is a worthy cause,fighting against racism.But I didn’t support them protesting during the middle of a pandemic because it risked spreading the disease.These were spontaneous protests from ordinary people remember,not political figures who were in positions of power.
The Trump rallies were organised by him for his own benefit.He was the President of the United States at the time and he was wilfully allowing people to spread the disease just to give himself an ego boost.As the President,he should have known better..He should have acted more responsibly.He should have thought of the danger he was putting his own supporters through and the community at large by holding these rallies.But he didn’t care about their safety,he only cared about his own self aggrandisement.And that’s why I rightly condemn him for his actions.
And ps,thanks for the cheap shot about my mental health at the end of your post.That was indicative of your character,or lack there of.Unfortunately,it’s typical of how you post here.

um....you do realise he was campaigning during an election year right? So were Joe's campaign rallies the same selfish organised events for his own benefit? Is Joe just as negligent bringing people together?
