California's COVID authoritarianism is only just beginning

…As for “contemporary scientific consensus,” the pandemic proved that the "contemporary scientific consensus" was often wrong. The consensus on the efficacy of masks, school closures, mask mandates, and vaccines preventing the transmission of the virus have all been wrong at one point or another, among other issues during the pandemic.

In other words, the state of California wants to implement a vague standard of punishment for doctors who do not “trust the Science” even as the science is constantly changing. Never mind that challenging the scientific consensus is how breakthroughs are achieved and how people become better informed. Galileo challenged the scientific consensus — do they aim to emulate his persecutors?

If this law is allowed to stand, it will not stop with COVID, either. The state will crack down on doctors and mental health professionals who defy the “contemporary scientific consensus” that children suffering from gender dysphoria should be irreversibly surgically mutilated and pushed into hormone replacement therapy.

If the state can find a profession to punish for questioning the “contemporary scientific consensus” about climate change, it will likely extend its censorship to its industry as well. California experiences regular rolling blackouts as it rejects nuclear energy, which is rather embarrassing to the idiots who run the state. It is far more convenient to silence dissident voices speaking up for nuclear — this law would provide a precedent and a basis for doing just such a thing…

The sheer and utter stupidity and lame idiocy of those freak of nature control freaks that runs this stupid state government filled with clowns knows no bounds. Their screwing over of the 1st amendment of the constitution and free expression is illegitimate. There is no excuse for what they are doing. We will not comply and will defy until we see them on the US Supreme Court.

 

According to them, big government knows best. Its advocates will slap us down if only they get the raw political power to do so.

 

Yep

 

public health is a legitimate and necessary responsibility of government. the precedents set by really stupid people claiming "freedom" to spread a deadly disease will accomplish the population reduction that this planet desperately needs.

 

But not federal government. So says the 10th amendment.

 

Except that as it turned out all their busybody interventions were useless and the vaccine did not prevent getting it or passing it to others. And now the control freaks want to take the powers they illicitly gained from their actions and apply it to other areas they want to control.

 

Trump recognized this. Biden does not.

 

I don't know if your aware of this but disease doesn't care about state borders.

 

True and that would motivate states to have health departments. As you probably know, they all do have one.
