Anyone know what is his medical exception?
Who or what is Slavaphobe?
I've said that he should explain it.
He will undoubtedly be asked about it in press conferences at the tournament.
""Covid has shone a light on the left.......They have exposed themselves to be just as or if not more nasty then the "right" they hate so much. ""
this quote is very relevant.
The win for Novak is a crushing defeat of the Australian Covid regime. Not the laws or the people but the regime and like all countries we have to look at these empowered regimes they have lost the plot, a little infused with all that power to control. We did not elect them remember they just evolved and have a little too much to say . IMHO
What an absolute Downer.
As well haha , 1 is also bad form
Ah now Glasso. I think everyone knows 1 isnt true. 2 is probably mostly true ,but 2 was very much the wrong thing to do. You know this.
Right *
in memory of the 65,000 actual Australian citizens who couldn't even get back into their own country for over a year.
What the fook did Djokovic have to do with that?
Conflating Australia's governmental pandemic decisions with Djokovic is just projection for the sake of it.
25 others and Djokovic applied to a process put in place by the state government in conjunction with Tennis Australia and followed the guidelines of this process to a tee
This was fully endorsed by the Federal Government
If the Australians fooked up internally on dotting their i's and crossing their t's then that's their screw up
If you are going to defend Djokovic, at least learn how to spell his name write 😉
Nope. Back to the drawing board, I'm afraid.
I never said he should not be let in (based on his anti-vaxx BS alone, that is*). But even if I did say that, favouring something that's usually the preserve of the 'right' doesn't make one a right-winger any more than your tolerance of gay people makes you a bleeding-heart liberal leftie.
*For the record, he should be subject to the same rules as everyone else. If I turned up at Melbourne airport with a dodgy exemption letter, I'd be asked to explain it further. If I then turned around and said "actually, I'm only over Covid recently, got it 2 weeks ago", they'd want to know why I didn't say that in the first place. If they then saw pics of me swanning around in public, surrounded by children while positive, they'd surmise that I was obviously indifferent to the public safety advice, rules and guidelines, and would therefore be a danger to the public. I would expect to be refused entry on that basis.
Because they are convinced they're in the right, many people don't see how extreme the personal abuse they dole out to Djockovic and unvaccinated people is.
But ordinary tennis fans and other normal people see it.
E.g. Taking a break from calling a Djockovic a **** and a rat-licker to say that he bullied younger players. If he had behaved towards younger players the way posters on this thread behave he'd have been banned from tennis.
I guess he'll have to explain the context of everything there eventually won't he?
Why wasn't he socially isolating though as per Serbian government guidelines (14 days).?
I saw an interview with Alexander Downer, and it was clear he thinks the immigration minister should now just revoke his visa and deport him. I would agree with that.
Tennis Australia were informed in Nov. that a positive test was not grounds for a quarrantine exemption, so they should never have told him otherwise. Not only does this prick not want to get vaccinated, he also doesn't want to quarrantine. I hope he's deported, in memory of the 65,000 actual Australian citizens who couldn't even get back into their own country for over a year.
I mean people calling Djokovic arrogant really need to take a look at Scott Morrison and Barnaby Joyce
Standing up to those scumbags and taking them down inside hostile territory was epic
It's like "Rocky 4" without the snow
There would be nothing sweeter than if Djokovic wins the Open. Can't wait to see the Covid fundamentalist Slavaphobe's blood boil when he does!
Do you reckon he'll be more popular than Bossman Tony?
But, you see, it does bear resemblance.
Whether you meant it or not, your words are there for everyone to see. You said "the left are as bad as or worse than those they hate on the right". You didn't say "some on the left", nor did you qualify which parts of the right that you were talking about....you just made a blanket statement that is demonstrably ridiculous. You say you abhor those things, yet you're claiming that someone who thinks Djokovic shouldn't be out doing photo ops with kids are just as bad. That's literally what you said.
I suppose that we'll eventually find out more on that in the end surely?
If it was a case of either wanting to believe that
There are those who will go for option 1 and those who go for option 2 and that was already pre-decided
Yep.
The press Conference was going well. Stating how they love the whole world and love Australia and what a stand up guy he is. A real love in.
When someone shouted the question re the 17th December, brother says this press conference is a joke and they all get up and leave..... Guilty as sin.
Actually i think he'll be revered for his stance here in time to come.
I'm pro choice on vaccines but making djokovic a poster boy for the cause, given the nonsense and pseudoscience he believes, is laughable. Nigel farage campaigning on his behalf makes it all the more hilarious.
So are you a conservative then since you didn't want Djockovic let in?
Like I said, these are a specific set of circumstances so no need to awkwardly partisanise them.
I'm no judge but I imagine in the court of public opinion. He is guilty as charged.
Djokovic has to adhere to the immigration policies of each country he visits, whether it's for a day or 10 years. Including Australia, which has notoriously strict policies for everyone, including tourists/visitors. Conservatives have long been touting those policies as the gold standard, something which should be admired and adopted everywhere, primarily because it keeps the brown folks out. Now that someone they like has fallen foul of those policies, they are literally out on the street protesting about it.
The hypocrisy knows no bounds.
A ratlicker is a slang term used to describe a person who knowingly spreads disease or advocates not taking precautions and puts innocent people in harms way for their own selfish reasons.
I.e. Anti-vaxers would be an example. If Djokovic is an anti-vaxer, he would be one too.
Do you still think he will be charged with fraud and led away in handcuffs?
I suppose there will be booing if he plays but I'm not sure he's permanently disgraced.
You know, The traditional conservative views on immigration, like you said in post #907. Do try to keep up.
What I said bares no resemblance to what you have attributed to me inferring. I equally abhor all of the things you outlined. On that we have common ground.
