ABC radio on the way home, talking about vulnerable people having to isolate themselves more and more to avoid Covid. Some staggering number of people with blood cancer (over 100,000?) just for starters. A quick thought experiment. Crime, and jails. /1 https://t.co/rfs75PwBMb

We isolate criminals from the wider community. We don’t ask the community to find a way to live with them, to ‘care for one another’ (the going phrase). Very few of them are as dangerous to you as Covid is. And their crime doesn’t grow exponentially. /2 https://t.co/cRhJGDYRnB

Threats to communal life are quarantined from that life. Crime, disease, wild dogs. Etc. We need to call out the nauseating bullshit that allowing a pandemic virus to spread is some normal anything. It’s an assault on society, propaganda-driven violence on the common good. /end
