They stopped QR codes, dropped the masks - and people fell sick. They didn’t accept RAT stats. They stopped the PCRs as numbers spiked. They told everyone to get the RATs. There are no RATS. Today, if you’re + on a RAT you must report it, or face a 1,000 dollar fine. How? What?

There’s a lot of angry, emotional responses to my recent thoughts about the Voice, most of which are too vile to retweet. What they’ve exposed to me is a deep, uninhibited racism, & parroting of the relentless misinformation spewed out by no campaigners. The way forward is YES.
