Europeans Stage Massive Protests Over New COVID Lockdowns, Restrictions

Belgian police used water cannons on the protesters.

Cities Austria, Belgium, Italy, and The Netherlands broke out in protests against the new lockdowns imposed by the government in the name of COVID-19.

But the people know what’s up. We all knew once the government gained so much power they wouldn’t let go.

Austria

Austria decided to return to a full lockdown due to more cases. It’s the fourth one since 2020.

The government used those cases to justify closing non-essential stores and allowing people to leave their houses for a valid reason. The government is also enforcing a vaccine mandate in February 2022.

Chancellor Alexander Schallenberg promised “the lockdown will end no later than December 13.”

So over 40,000 people gathered in Vienna to protest the lockdown.

Belgium

Tens of thousands of people swarmed Brussels to protest the government’s new COVID lockdowns. It’s weird because Belgium has a high vaccination rate. West Flanders has the highest vaccination rate in the country but also has the highest infection rate.

Belgium “expanded work-from-home rules and strengthened restrictions on the unvaccinated.” Prime Minister Alexander de Croo said people should work from home four days a week until mid-December. Then companies should make them work three days from home. People aged 10 and up must wear masks unless seated. Nightclubs need to test people.

Croo said he wants to avoid a total lockdown. He is also resisting calls to mandate vaccines.

Italy

Thousands of Italians protested against the country’s Green Pass, which is a vaccine passport. You need one to basically do anything in Italy.

The Netherlands

People in cities across The Netherlands, including Amsterdam, protested for three straight nights. The government wants “to restrict use of a national corona pass to people who have either recovered from COVID-19 or have been vaccinated, excluding those with a negative test result.” Those in charge also banned New Year’s Eve fireworks.

But it got worse after the first night when police opened fire on a crowd.

Authorities arrested at least 64 people over the weekend.

Austria will have mandatory vaccinations. Word is Germany is going to do the same thing.

Think about that. What if you cannot take the shot for medical reasons? What if you choose to not get the shot for other personal reasons? What are they planning to do with such people?

I can’t help but wonder if the current “administration” here is looking at this and getting ideas…

    Why wouldn’t they, right?

    They already had an angry little man from Austria with a funny moustache that came up with the plan you’re asking about.

    Lock them up? It’s what Australia is doing. 38 people sent to the camps, most of which were in mere proximity to the actual case.

      Yeah, I saw that. The person responsible is called Gunner. Never would have thought Australia would go down that road.

    I think they do have some experience in operating concentration camps. They could also put some kind of patch on the clothes of unvaccinated individuals to make them more obvious as social pariahs.

Nothing terrifies a globalist like self-determination.

Well this certainly doesn’t fit The Narrative, does it?

    Which is why you see very little news about this in the US. Can’t have people realize that they would not be alone in fighting back.

I think it might be time for revolutions in a lot of countries
