Marxist Mark took away your international freedoms and rights under COVID

By Andrea Tokaji - posted Monday, 10 May 2021


Make no mistake: your rights and freedoms have been taken away from you disproportionately and illegally by governments who have overreached their powers constitutionally, cannot medically or scientifically not justify an ongoing use of Emergency Powers, and have left families socially and economically suffering.

Let's look at what we have lost under COVID:

Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person(Article 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR)).

Except under COVID. Under Covid, we have been harassed, intimidated and threatened by our own governments. We have been silenced. This is evidenced by pregnant lady being arrested in Victoria for organising an anti-lockdown rally on Facebook.

All are equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimination to equal protection of the law. All are entitled to equal protection against any discrimination in violation of this Declaration and against any incitement to such discrimination. (Art. 7 of the UDHR).

Except under COVID. Under COVID, if you have a medical condition and cannot wear a mask, if you exercise your freedom of speech, or if you rally or protest, you will be fined, harassed and even imprisoned by the authorities.

No one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile.(Art 9; UDHR).

Except under COVID. Under COVID, you may be forcibly restrained, detained and forced to take a vaccine and be subject to medical procedures without your consent according to section 158 of the Western Australian Public Health Act 2016.

Everyone is entitled in full equality to a fair and public hearing by an independent and impartial tribunal, in the determination of his rights and obligations and of any criminal charge against him. Everyone charged with a penal offence has the right to be presumed innocent until proved guilty according to law in a public trial at which he has had all the guarantees necessary for his defence.(Art. 10 & 11; UDHR).

Except under COVID. Under COVID, you are guilty, without the presumption of innocence or without a fair trial or hearing before a fine is issued for arbitrary matters, or for being at a place where the government has restricted our movement.

In the case of Dr Nataliia Narin who is a dentist originally from the Ukraine, she has lost her practicing certificate due to work travel that she undertook during COVID restrictions. She has lost her livelihood and profession.

No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks. (Art. 12; UDHR).
