I completely agree

Ever since I discovered that our government can legally force inject us, I have felt permanent low grade anxiety which amps up to medium-high when politicians have signalled irrationality and/or escalating ‘emergency’ policies.

For me, I’m dealing with this by establishing a base overseas with a view to making a quick escape from WA if a state of emergency is declared in the future. I also deal with the fear by cultivating a spiritual practice and connection, and focusing on the moment - for today, in this moment, I am ok.

I would be interested to know how other West Australians cope with the knowledge that our laws allow the government to force medical procedures on us without our consent, if they so choose.
