 As children, we constantly asked that most annoying of all questions: WHY?  The most patient of parents would eventually close the session down with the statement " Because I said so. " 

And that was an end to it. And that is what our governments have done with Vaccines, with transgender issues; with racial division and with just about every issue we face today. 

When we ask " Why "  the politicians and bureaucrats simply said " Because we told you so. " 

That is the crux of the issue.  And I, for one, am bloody sick of it. 

 

It is the RIGHT of every person to ask questions. However, the decision to ask a question and pursue an answer or to refrain from asking in order to maintain a sense of blissful ignorance is what is wrong with the world today. In fact, those who seek to question are punished.

Yesterday, we had an article written by our contributor Chaucer. It was a tale of a man and a dog, a man and a woman and a man who is confronted with some uncomfortable questions. He may be telling the story of the vaccines with his discomfort over the thought that his beloved perfect woman was in some way flawed.

So many millions throughout the world celebrated the news that a vaccine for the dreaded Covid was available. The vaccine was the picnic on the tartan rug; the bubble bath and the ride through the mountains all rolled into one glorious promise of happy times.

Instead, some Doctors and health professionals sensed that perhaps the perfect woman might not be as perfect as was previously thought. A seed of doubt was sown and people started to question that perfection. The lady in my story was not named Elizabeth. She was named Vaccine. Perhaps she was not quite the goddess of joy and hope she pretended to be.

The tragedy in my story is that, unlike Chaucer, we were not ALLOWED to ask what was going on. We were fined, arrested, hit with rubber bullets, tackled to the ground, pepper sprayed and locked up. Fired, discredited and punished all for daring to ask if the rumours were true. 

 

The same happened with mask mandates. With vaccine passports. With interstate travel banned. With family get-togethers banned. With all the horror of what we have endured in the past 3 years.... all we got was No and " because we told you so. " 

Our elderly were locked up. For months. Our grieving separated from their departed loved ones. Neighbours told to mistrust each other. Everything was geared to creating an atmosphere of them and us. 

 

We are now seeing it all over again. The Voice referendum is yet another situation where it is impossible to legitimately ask " Why? " 

All we get is " Because we told you so. " 

President Trump is being sent to his room with no supper ( for maybe 200 or 400 years ) because he dared to be a grown-up in a room full of children. 

We have Senators and other members of parliament being sent to the naughty corner without a fair hearing. Members of our armed forces being treated as war criminals because they are being judged by people who have never been in a war zone under fire. You cannot assess a person's behaviour in a war environment in the same way that you would assess someone having a sit down lunch in park on Lake Burley Griffin. In fact, after reading some of the comments on yesterday's article about sea sickness, I suspect that the lake in Canberra is aptly named because there is a lot of sickness spewing forth in the rocky boat we call Australian parliament. 

In any democratic society, the right of the people to ask questions of their government is a fundamental aspect of accountability and transparency. It allows citizens to seek clarifications, and hold those in power accountable for their actions. But these days? Not so much. 

You see, just like in yesterday's article, when questions arise, trust is damaged. It is only when we can ask the question and get an honest answer that we can continue with a healthy relationship. 

Being too frightened to ask only leads to increased mistrust and the complete breakdown of previously healthy relationships. 

Which brings me back to the beginning where I said that the phrase "ignorance is bliss" suggests that not knowing certain things can be more comfortable or enjoyable than knowing them. It implies that ignorance can bring a sense of happiness or contentment because it shields us from the potential burdens or troubles associated with knowledge.

That concerns me. If we are not "allowed" to ask questions, not allowed to ask " Why " " or " Why not? " it leads me to only one conclusion. Being unaware of potential risks or dangers can result in harm. In the case of vaccine injuries, the withholding of life-saving medications such as ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine have led to the terrible loss of life and quality of life. 

Too many of us have witnessed the loss of loved ones due to this " baffling " phenomenon of " died suddenly. " 

Given our experience with the harlot known as " Vaccine", I am not about to enter into a relationship with her younger sister known as " Voice ". 

Once bitten, twice shy. 

Chaucer mentioned " Knowledge is Power " and that is something our governments do NOT want us to have. After all, knowledge and understanding are fundamental to personal development, critical thinking, and expanding our perspectives. By asking questions and seeking answers, we gain insights, challenge assumptions, and broaden our horizons.

Heaven forbid our governments let THAT happen. 

Miss Elizabeth may or may not have been a stripper, and Eddie the dog may or may not be a serial vomiter, but I will take my chances with them. 

Because, like with Vaccine and the Voice, we already know that life is sure as hell not going to be a bloody picnic.
