Covid

[Blaithin]

You are referring to two completely separate types of people. There is no overlap.

That's not the impression I've got from the general population.

People don't take accountability. They virtue signal, they say what they need to to get off the hook, or they get defensive. Very few actually sit down in their thoughts about things to be properly accountable. And when they do, they can do it for some subjects, and not others.

The idea that people who don't hold the government accountable have no personal accountability but the people who want to hold the government accountable have good personal accountability is an idealistic one.

Most people who want to hold the government accountable simply don't agree with the government. If there's an issue the government has covered that they agree on the handling of, they will not bring up that the government needs to be accountable.

So then what is the point of accountability? If someone only wants it because they disagree, then it's not accountability they want, they want to be proven right.

Being proven right is not the same as taking accountability.

The thought is, what, the government steps up and says "Hey, we could have handled Covid better. We were working with the knowledge we had at the time and felt it was the proper course for the province/country. The vaccine was our best path forward for the majority of the population so it was our responsibility to make that clear. Some of the methodology of implementation was not a great decision in hindsight, and that is regrettable." and magically all the dissenters on here would be fine because the government took accountability?

Not happening, because to them accountability is saying all decisions were wrong, which again, is not accountability, it's wanting to be proven "right".

so the country's that have held or still are in the process of holding an enquiry into the handling of C19 are just wasting time and money ?

[Blaithin]

What is an inquiry going to achieve?

Is someone going to read a statement off a teleprompter saying force was excessive and choices infringed upon?

Is someone going to get fired?

Are we going to receive recompense in some way?

Inquiries are a form of virtue signaling. Inquiries into the RCMP, inquiries into residential schools, inquiries into price fixing... They do nothing except make it look like something is being done, and at the end, next to nothing is done. If you're happy with that, by all means, demand an inquiry to make yourself feel better.

People get the government they deserve
government can do whatever they want because they know most people don't care

End of the day Covid 19 , as Agstar showed , was deliberately made , by billionaire “kings” for a specific purpose…. Was a bio weapon developed that was “accidentally released”
Thanks Agstar for showing the real intent of the gain of function research that was enhanced by the two scientists from the lab in Winnipeg , that mysteriously disappeared, to the lab in Wuhan
It was never a conspiracy theory, it was a plan .
The cover story that it came from a “wet food market” was the lamest propaganda scheme ever to be pushed onto the human population.
This latest no kings protest is just yet another distraction
Had to shake my head at the protests in Canada where the head of state …. Is still actually the King of England lol

Your on quite a roll Blaithin. I certainly agree. In the end it all comes down to the person, the group or the government wanting to be right. Opposition parties always call for inquiries with of course hoping the findings put the government having to admit they were wrong.

You want everyone to have the opportunity to tell their story?

Sure, not like my tax dollars have better things to pay for then a soap box for everyone who feels wronged by Covid protocols.

Or you don’t mean everyone gets to tell their story? So how do we pick which people and businesses are worthy of telling us their tales of woe. Why are their stories so much more worthy than other people’s?

We have our opportunities to impact and influence the government. No reason to waste money on inquiries just to try and feel better. It’s better spent elsewhere.

[cropgrower]

i never said pick what people get to tell their story , let everyone that wants tell their experience good and bad

[Blaithin]

That would take a century and triple our deficit.

People have the media and social media to tell their stories. They don’t need to cost us money just so they can talk at an inquiry the majority of the population wouldn’t even pay attention too, for no purpose other than to feel better sharing their story.
