Australian Senator Malcolm Roberts: “If The Government Can Decide Who is Free and Who is Not, There is No Freedom Only Tyranny”


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on August 4, 2021 | Sundance | 187 Comments

Many people have looked at what is taking place in Australia with jaws agape.  Indeed, if there exists any system of western democracy that has taken more stronger totalitarian measures during covid than Australia, they are not easily identified.

There were reports in early 2020 of the United Nations organizing 5-stages of COVID lock-down plans, with “stage-5” being the most restrictive; and the Australian government agreeing to be the beta-test for the fifth stage; the ultimate police state.  If true, that explains the incredibly undemocratic and authoritarian controls triggered by the government down under.

The Australian army is patrolling the streets; all businesses are forcibly shut down; formerly free citizens now locked inside their homes; sky-marshals patrolling from the air and warning via loudspeakers to disperse; concentric rings of physical checkpoints around major metropolitan areas; dissidents and non-conformists identified, targeted and arrested by violent Australian police.  Yes, this sounds like a dystopian science-fiction novel; however, it is all the current reality in Australia…. and the government is claiming they are only in “stage 4“!

One Senator, Malcolm Roberts, warns the Australian government they are on the wrong side of history….  WATCH:

[Transcript] – “As a servant to the people of Queensland and Australia, I speak tonight on freedom. On many occasions in the last year I have addressed the Senate in regard to freedom as a counterbalance to medical tyranny. And I recently addressed the Canberra Freedom Rally, remotely. The side that is locking people up for the crime of being healthy, arresting protesters, pepper spraying kids, beating up grannies, banning books and electronic messages, censoring social media, sending threatening letters, forcing small businesses to close, urging people to dob in dissenters and banning safe drugs that have worked for 60 years are all on the wrong side of history.”

“In a frightening development, New South Wales has called in the troops to keep innocent, healthy citizens locked in their homes in what can only be called martial law.

Recent freedom marches showed what happens to citizens who exercise their democratic right to protest. People are demonized, hunted down; the media vilifies them to discourage others from questioning the control state. If the government can decide who is free and who is not, then that is not freedom and no-one is free. A crisis will always be found to justify measures designed to protect the government, not the public—a crisis that is as is easy to create as turning up the PCR test from 24 cycles to 42, where a false positive is the most likely outcome, as has occurred.

Actions such as these have created a crisis of confidence in government, and that, fellow citizens, is on the Senate. We are the house of review. We’re tasked with a duty to ensure honesty, transparency and accountability in the government of the day. We have failed in that solemn duty, our duty to our constituents. We have failed those who are yet to vote, our children, who are now being injected with a substance that has not undergone meaningful safety testing. The Liberal, National and Labor parties have colluded to waive these measures through this place, reducing the Senate to the status of a dystopian echo chamber.

Each new restriction, although met with rightful public opposition, has not led to a re-evaluation but, rather, has led the government to crack down even further. The Morrison government is behaving like a gambling addict who loses a hand but doubles down instead of admitting error and walking away. With troops now on the streets, it’s frightening to contemplate where this will end.

Everyday Australians are being deliberately demoralized to extract a higher degree of compliance. When COVID first arrived, there were few masks, and the experts and authorities told us masks were not necessary. Now, those same medically ineffective masks are used to condition people to fear and obedience. Crushing resistance crushes hope, and without hope we have no future.

Is it any wonder that small businesses are closing permanently? Every small business that closes is a family that was being provided for through hard work and enterprise. Who will look after those families now—the government? With whose money? The Reserve Bank, using electronic journal entries, can only create fiat money out of thin air for so long before it runs down our country. The government can only sell bonds until buyers stop coming forward. Then what happens? We will have no tax base left to pay government stipends to people who were once able to pay their own way.

Since when has the Liberal Party, the supposedly party of Menzies, been dedicated to making huge sections of the population totally reliant on the government for survival? The bad joke here is that the excuse used to justify the sudden rush to Marxism—public health—is moot. Death from all sources, including coronavirus and the flu, are at historic lows. Australia’s death rate in 2020 was less than in 2019, and 2021’s death rate is lower again. We’re strangling Australia’s economic life and future for no reason. Power has gone to the heads of our elected leaders and unelected bureaucrats, who are exercising powers yet do not feel the consequences themselves.

Never in history has Lord Acton’s famous quote rung more true: ‘Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.’ It’s been calculated that the civil disobedience tipping point—which is the maximum capacity of the police to arrest people, of the jails to hold people and of the courts to process people—is in Australia around 100,000 people. Anything more than that and the system comes crashing down. Attendance at the freedom rallies last month shows we’re almost there.

No wonder the Morrison government has been scared into resorting to the refuge of tyrants—using the military to intimidate civilians into compliance and to mandating injections and threatening to rip away people’s livelihoods.

Everyday Australians are seeing through the smokescreens of fear and intimidation. People now see that the costs of the restrictions to family and community exceed the medical cost of the virus. Everyday Australians have spoken. We will not be divided, we are united, we are one community, we are one nation.”

Canada is 100% on Board with Schwab’s Biodigital Program


Armstrong Economics Blog/Bio Technology Re-Posted Jul 29, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

All the pretend fact-checkers call it a conspiracy theory that Schwab wants to alter humanity and create trans-human species. Yet, here we have the government of Canada openly admitting that they are moving toward a biodigital world where they boldly state that this will progress to influence us to “even evolve as a species.”

“In the coming years, biodigital technologies could be woven into our lives in the way that digital technologies are now. Biological and digital systems are converging, and could change the way we work, live, and even evolve as a species.

Perhaps Schwab’s dream is to keep manufacturing body parts so he can live forever. To me, this is beyond a conspiracy theory. This is the work of a sick demented mind.


WIKIPEDIA (Fake News)

Criticism

Starting in the Fall of 2020, online rumor spread that Klaus Schwab led a “Great Reset conspiracy”, “including the notion that a group of elites are working to undermine national sovereignty and individual freedoms, references to a “New World Order,” and the idea that these malicious actors will seek to exploit a catastrophic incident—like a global pandemic—to advance their agenda”.[24] The conspiracy theory was labelled as “false” in fact-check articles, including by Reuters,[25] BBC[26] and AFP,[27] but persisted online. In March 2021, the Magyar Nemzet, a Hungarian online outlet, published a critique of Schwab’s “Great Reset”. The author of the opinion article alleged that Schwab advocated a “new ‘transhumanist’ world order” under ‘transnational governance’ and that “WEF leadership” “want to replace democracy with complex governance, prioritize technocracy over elections and MPs, and emphasize ‘expertise’ that the general public doesn’t understand instead of transparency.” The author termed all of this “Davos-era neocommunism”.[28] Many of the claims in the article were later debunked.[29][30]

Australian Police Are Becoming the Symbol of Tyranny


Armstrong Economics Blog/Australia & Oceania Re-Posted Jul 29, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

The rising discontent in Australia is shocking the world. As I have said, other nations invaded Iraq for abusing their citizens. Who will come to the rescue of Australians? The Australian police are violating international human rights, and the display of their brutality, some say, is reaching that of what they accuse China of these days. Coronavirus tyranny is the excuse to destroy the economy and build back better because the Socialistic system can no longer be supported. Full lockdowns have been imposed without justification. The government is no longer even bothering to pretend there are massive waves of deaths. The Australian government is no longer a free government, and all they can do in the future is suspend elections, for who in their right mind would vote for such tyranny?

Our models on the Australian dollar warn that a breach of the 7005 levels on a monthly closing basis will signal serious events ahead. The police are using COVID simply for social control because the government knows it is fundamentally on the brink of economic disaster.

Australian Police Commissioner Mick Fuller Violates International Human Rights


Armstrong Economics Blog/Australia & Oceania Re-Posted Jul 28, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

New South Wales Police Commissioner Mick Fuller has officially become a violator of international human rights, and under international law, he should be arrested and prosecuted. Fuller has warned anyone organizing or planning to attend a second COVID lockdown protest in Sydney that “you will be arrested.” There is nothing legal about what he is ordering the police to do and following his orders is no different than the Nazis pretending what they were doing was legal simply because they were ordered to do so. Fuller is destroying Australia as a free country, pushing it into the clutches of the evolving totalitarian regime being created quietly behind the curtain as inspired by the World Economic Forum.

Fuller has become so anti-human rights that he is labeling COVID protestors as anarchists as if that somehow justifies imprisoning people and abusing international human rights. The NSW police are violating every possible principle of a free government and this is the very excuse the West used to invade Iraq and Syria because their respective governments were abusing the accord on international human rights. This is an extremely dangerous position for the police to take. History warns that such people are the very types who inspire revolutions.  Revolution will come. Our computer is very clear on that. Our present form of representative governments around the world will collapse, for they no longer represent the people. Fuller is condemning his own family to tyranny and he and his police force will forever be seen as the evil tyrants by history. Just because a politician decrees something does NOT make it legal, ethical, or morally correct.

The NSW police have become so ruthless, they have no problem subjecting people to experimental vaccines that are not working. Israel is reporting that the Pfizer vaccine is now down to only 39% effective against the Delta variant. We have to wonder why the police are like the Nazis of World War II with the same identical excuse — I am just following orders! This implies they are incapable of actual free thinking.  Scott Morrison changed his position from treating COVID as the flu to a lethal disease that justified destroying the economy. It has been suggested that he is taking his marching order from the World Economic Forum, and this change now justifies Fuller to violate international human rights.

This video is already circulating about the Australian government and how they are violating every international principle of human rights. Obviously, Australia is certainly not a country to visit on vacation anymore. It was once upon a time, a place I often thought I would like to retire to. I loved Australia. Spent a lot of time there. Went into Kakadu and Ayers Rock. I even have paintings by Australian artists to remind me of how beautiful it was.

Member of Parliament Comes Out of the Closet – Lockdowns Are for Social Control


Armstrong Economics Blog/Lock Down Re-Posted Jul 28, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

In Britain, Graham Brady, Chairman of the Tory 1922 Committee and member of Parliament, has written an op-ed for the Daily Mail where he made it very clear that the purpose of the lockdowns is to impose social control — not to reduce COVID. He has pointed out that this is approaching what is known as Stockholm Syndrome, where the greater the control to which people are subjected, the greater the dependence people develop.

I have been warning about this because this is the precise talk behind the curtain. Brady has the courage to come out, and the Daily Mail has the courage to let him speak. For months, there are those in various governments who KNOW what is really going on but have been afraid to come out and speak.

This new period of a dark era that our computer has been projecting for August-October 2021 is shaping up as an all-out assault on the UNVACCINATED. This is likely to result in a continued rise in civil unrest, and it is becoming a real battle for freedom. Pension funds need 8% to break even generally. The problem with those in government is that they are COMPLETELY incompetent to manage the economy, no less intervening in it to stabilize anything. By lowering interest rates to NEGATIVE in 2014 in Europe, they NEVER considered that under their Socialist policies, pension funds are mandated to buy government bonds. They have recently wiped out pension funds and know they are on the brink of financial disaster, for the ECB cannot raise interest rates either without blowing up the member state budgets. They never see that lowering interest rates to negative will have a ripple effect throughout everything else.

Schwab is preaching to destroy capitalism as we know it and “BUILD BACK BETTER,” which means you first have to destroy it in order to build it back better. Because of this view of climate change, they want to end commuting to work and imprison us in our homes — hence lockdowns.

Anyone who dares to connect the dots is labeled “conspiracy theorist,” so they NEVER have to address the issue. All of these events are just coincidental, and there is, according to mainstream media, absolutely no connection and no agenda. The New York Times even declared the “Great Rest” was a conspiracy theory. The mainstream media is promoting the destruction of capitalism and our way of life. They have already made that judgment. The comedian Bill Burr calls CNN the “America-hating blowhards,” for they have become so against the people it is mindblowing.

Once upon a time, I had tremendous respect for the London Financial Times. They have totally forgotten who their audience is and have called for the end of capitalism by joining Schwab. But hey, anyone who dares to point these connections out is a low-life conspiracy theorist, which seems to be becoming a badge of honor.

Housing Market – This Time it is Different


Armstrong Economics Blog/Real Estate Re-Posted Jul 28, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Housing prices have surged at rates not seen since the lead-up to the 2008 financial crisis, according to global data. This has led to questions of whether the housing market is in a bubble that could burst. However, there is one thing that is very clear. This is an entirely different run-up than the 2007-2009 debacle. A friend sold a house here in 1 hour. The buyer sold their house in Virginia and they have been living in a rental. Most people buying property in Florida are from out of state (about 8 out of 10). What is different is that most deals are for CASH!

In addition, mortgage rates have declined BECAUSE serious money is more interested in lending into well collateralized real estate than government bonds. This is part of the shift from PUBLIC to PRIVATE assets.

With Biden looking to raise corporate taxes sharply next year, and the rising threat of moving to a national cryptocurrency, people are simply looking to plow money into private assets. Then there is Blackrock buying over 20,000 houses in Florida for renting purposes. Keep in mind that Laurence Fink Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BlackRock, USA, is also a board member of the World Economic Forum, which has raised deep concerns that he is fulfilling Schwab’s 2030 agenda — You’ll Own Nothing. And You’ll Be Happy!

Only the French Know How to Protest


Armstrong Economics Blog/Civil Unrest Re-Posted Jul 27, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

Only the French know how to protest. Farmers collected manure and pumped it into President Macron’s residence years ago back in 2014. When they notice an open window, they back up to give that another shot.

World in Chaos


Armstrong Economics Blog/Opinion Re-Posted Jul 17, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

In South Africa, the currency has fallen hard as riots have devasted the country. They looted the mall, except for the bookstore. The former South African President Jacob Zuma turned himself in to begin a 15-month sentence for contempt of court. This has sent the country into a tailspin. Contempt of court is an abuse of judicial power, for they claim they can lock anyone up for any reason whatsoever.

In Greece, there are thousands of people protesting against the discrimination of people who have not been vaccinated and the mandatory vaccinations and other measures imposed by the Greek government to tackle the pandemic in Athens. There are far worse viruses that have taken place, yet governments have not destroyed the economies and taken such totalitarian measures. This in itself has raised skepticism as to what is really going on when the death rate is minimal.

In Britain, 47% of those with COVID have been vaccinated. In Australia, the mob stormed the government as in ancient Roman times resulting in chaos on the streets of Melbourne just hours before the city entered its fifth lockdown. The protesters have marched through the CBD, saying if they do not act, he will get away with it again. What I am hearing is that many are starting to say they would rather die in freedom than live in prison indefinitely. This is our problem. Governments will NEVER admit a mistake, and the fact that they are so involved with the vaccines, we have nobody to offer independent verification of anything.

Meanwhile, the Biden Administration wants to shut down all dissent and has been putting pressure on Big Tech to shut down people who disagree with the administration.

The greatest problem here is that Biden has stated UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE will he ever fire Fauci. That implicitly means he refuses to investigate anything about his research or the connection with Wuhan. That means the Biden Administration will NEVER provide the truth about COVID or anything else. The US will not admit that the origin of COVID might be linked to Fauci — he is above any investigation.
