How quickly we forget how far the authoritarians went in assuming dictatorial powers. Not just arrests for paddle boarding in the bay (read the link below), or fishing in a lake (fascist Inslee D-WA), Australian thug police and detention camps, NZ prime minister claiming only she is the arbiter of "truth". US government mandating injecting experimental drugs, locking down, masking and injecting defenseless children.

All over the western world, freedom was being smashed in the name of "pandemic control". All throughout the western "free" world. I'm sure the authoritarian statists will try it again in the future. "You vill obey"..

..On April 2, 2020, a paddle boarder was chased by authorities and taken into custody. This event should have caused unanimous outrage over the absurdity of what happened – law enforcement arrested a lone paddle boarder on Santa Monica Bay for the crime of “flouting coronavirus closures.”


Traditional voices that could have questioned unscientific authoritarian policy instead provided cover. The Los Angeles Times justified law enforcement’s ridiculous response by quoting a scientist who made the claim (presumably with a straight face): “..[SARS-CoV-2] could enter coastal waters and transfer back into the air.” Setting aside the absurdity of this and every other justification for closing beaches, hiking trails, and parks, think of the narrative it perpetuated — the virus is so insidious that even those who dared to paddle board alone on the ocean might somehow spread it to the rest of us..
