Same way I am supposed to get tested for Covid despite having the vaccine if I want to go travelling again
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well yeah how does that make any sense? Magic vaccine that we all must take can't be up to much then.

The fact people follow one way signs in shops like sheep is the biggest wind-up, we're like cattle in an abattoir.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If people knew what was ahead and how long this nonsense is going to last for they'd start protesting en masse. But because most naively think we're coming to the end of it thanks to this vaccine they're willing to keep their head in the sand for the time being.

I think it is deeper than that sadly, a lot of people seem content with the concept of being paid to sit at home for their own safety.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That definitely applies to the many furloughed but I'm talking about the public in general across all walks of life?

Yeah apparently the direction you walk in makes all the difference. Utter unproven and unfounded drivel.

We have happily traded away freedom for the illusion of safety over recent decades, this is simply another chapter of that in my opinion.

Hence why airports are like prisons and the government can read your whole browsing history and know more about you than even your closest friends.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree but this has taken it up several notches. The world pre and post 2020 are like night and day.

The glass shields are equally ludicrous.

Mask wearing, no one greeting anyone, and everyone avoiding each other's eyes as they walk past....all conditioning us to be more and more miserable.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And to not talk to each other most importantly.

Where does this lead then? Presumably into a world where many of the personal freedoms we all once enjoyed and even took for granted are gone forever.

And it might sound slightly cliche now but this is worryingly beginning to resemble Orwell's 1984. Just with a lick of new paint.

Most don't want to engage in this subject though. That's the sad thing. It's too painful for many to think that the powers that be might not have their best interests at heart.

It's much easier to call someone a conspiracy theorist when all they're doing is engaging the facts and logic of the situation or in this case the lack of them. I do genuinely feel a sense of dread when I envisage what the world is going to look like five years from now.

Personally, I don't think it is a grand conspiracy of any kind, I just think it is a consequence of a society losing its meaning and faith in its own values, sacrificing freedom for supposed security.
---------------------
I wish I could see it that way. Sadly I think that here has to be some kind of agenda at play in order to get to the stages that we've got to now in he world.

As for smartphones and the general public being surveilled/spied on by governments you only need to look at the Edward Snowden story to know how deep that rabbit hole goes.

England
@England

"We can confirm that @BenChilwell and @masonmount_10 must isolate up to and including Monday 28 June. This decision has been taken in consultation with Public Health England."

This means they miss both the Czech Republic game and the last 16 match if we win the group.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm confused why is it just those 2........and why can't they just do a test?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

They did a test. They tested negative. They are still being told to isolate.

Allegedly, the reason it is those two is they talked with Gilmour in the tunnel for 25 minutes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lol, well he man handled most the England midfield for 90 mins. I just find that weird if they done the test too.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
and what do blokes talk about for 25 minutes...that's womens territory

You never talk to people in pubs then?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I do talk to people in my two sports clubs, but it seems a lot to be talking to someone in the tunnel for that length of time...

not to mention they've just been running around in close contact for 90 minutes...ridiculous to my mind...either everyone isolates, or nobody does

posted on 22/6/21

Still not seen the need for this non use of changing rooms at stadiums either...have people never heard of deep cleans...or just a good general clean & disinfect regime

Which is exactly what your average Asda worker is doing with the trolleys every day...if at all

Yeah they've been in close physical contact for 90 minutes of the game but because they talked after the game probably at a further distance from each other than for many parts of the game then they have to isolate. Surely everyone from the game needs to isolate now. It makes zero sense.
