When leader asks you to beat thali and light candles and creates worker migration disaster then only miracles can save you.

In Canada I see how indians ignore personal cautions against this disease & have many-people in household parties. City of Brampton in Canada has similar situation as India does. That tells us, cultures & behaviors play biological, anthropological, & evolutionary roles.

Copied and sharing because it’s critically important now:

Before I begin - I hope you won't unfollow or unfriend me if you have a different perspective to mine, but feel free to do so if you wish. We are all adults here... we're friends... we're family, so let's love, accept and respect each other... we may have different views and opinions, but we're still the same people inside.
Ultimately, we all want the same thing... our basic human rights, to be healthy, happy and enjoy a quality of life... so we all have the same goal in mind, even though we may sometimes disagree on how to achieve it.

🏴We have now been robbed of 6 months of our lives... that's 6 months we will never get back... we are systematically being stripped of our basic rights and freedoms... proof is emerging that we have been lied to and deceived by our elected (and non-elected) leaders...I believe it's time to exercise our right to say "No"

🏴I am concerned that people are being labelled conspiracy theorists, simply because they question certain government, corporate and industrial motives, or because they question the arbitrary laws that revoke our basic human rights.

🏴I do not consent to the Government making decisions about my health. They were elected to serve, not control me.

🏴I do not consent to living in a police state.

🏴I do not consent to the extreme censorship that is taking place on social media platforms toward doctors, scientists and activists, who present and uphold valid data that challenges the 'official narrative' the media would have us believe. This concerns me far more than the virus.

🏴I do not consent to the tracking and tracing of citizens.

🏴I do not consent to Government making decisions without a democratic process.

🏴I do not consent to Politicians, or any other individuals, who are compromised by having a lucrative 'financial interest' in the Pharmaceutical Industry, making decisions about my health and wellbeing.

🏴I do not consent to being told that all these decisions are for my own safety.

I🏴I do not consent to censoring free speech under the guise of protecting me from the spread of misinformation.

🏴I do not consent to the closing of small businesses while multi-million dollar companies remain open.

🏴I do not consent to being labelled an 'anti-vaxxer', simply because I have concerns about MANDATORY, enforced vaccines or rushed procedures, without proper protocols - especially high risk ones, with limited testing that are deemed highly profitable to the most questionable of interests.

🏴I do not consent to the amount of division and hatred that is being encouraged between friends and families, simply for upholding opposing beliefs, or for speaking openly about what THEY believe.

🏴I do not consent to the idea that pharmaceuticals and vaccines are the ONLY way to prevent or heal from illness... the outright dismissal of good nutrition and natural prevention and therapies is highly questionable from my perspective.

🏴I do not consent to the media only covering fraudulent and misleading 'case' counts, or grossly exaggerated death counts, when the survival rate is immensely higher. Fear cripples immunity, so why aren't we talking about the excellent (99.9%) recovery rates, successful treatments and therapies?

🏴I do not consent to the lack of care and consideration for 'non-Covid' patients, who have been denied access to essential treatments, consultations and surgeries for Cancer, Cardio-vascular and other life threatening conditions. Their lives matter too!!!

🏴I don't consent to 'House Arrests' and Lock Downs... staying home doesn’t protect against domestic violence, sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, starvation and suicide; all of which are costing many more lives than the virus.

Here's what I DO consent to:
🏴Being a free and critical thinker.
🏴A parent, who is protecting the future of all children.
🏴An individual who cares about tomorrow... someone who understands the connection between the health of our planet and our own health
🏴A caring person, who will never stop fighting injustice and tyranny... or questioning and condemning the lies and manipulation of the Government and the Media.

🏴We all come into this world with nothing and we'll leave with nothing... the bit in the middle is called LIFE... life is a precious gift from our Maker... none of us know how long that gift will last, so make the most of every second, every minute and every hour of every day... live, love, take chances, not orders... be kind, be tolerant and be happy... don't waste another second waiting for things to change... BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD!

If you agree, please copy/paste or share, to show your support for this stand we must take, for the sake of our freedom and the freedom of future generations and for our once great country. 2
