Finally, One for the Good Guys

Right now, tennis bad boy, notorious anti-vaxxer and all-round shitty person Novak Djokovic is winging his way from Melbourne Australia to Dubai after being deported for violating Australian immigration laws, lying about it, and then insisting that rules don’t apply to him.  He dragged immigration officials, tournament officials, the tennis world, and indeed the entire population of Australia through almost two weeks of drama just because he doesn’t want to get a simple safe and effective vaccination.

A three federal judge panel ruled on Sunday afternoon that Australia immigration officials were within their rights doing their damn job and enforcing the country’s immigration laws.  Even better, there was no court that would receive an inevitable appeal from Djokovic.  The decision was final. The decision was unanimous and, to add insult to justice, the panel ordered Djoker to pay all of the costs incurred by the government for this sorry chapter of his life that resulted from his own decisions and conduct.

After years of bad guys all over the world getting away with actual murder, from Rodrigo Duterte Wrecking to Philippine government to Vladimir Putin’s murderous rule over Russia, to TFG’s teflon life where he’s never been personally held to account for his entire corrupt existence, wins for good guys are few and far between.  Of the thousands of Deplorables who stormed the US Capitol only about 700 were charged with crimes and most of those are only petty charges.  Less than 20 are charged with serious crimes and only 11 charged with what all were guilty, sedition.  Bad guys get off scott free on a daily basis, especially willfully ignorant anti-vaxxers who are participating in mass illness and death simply because they’re assholes.

Because bad guys win almost all the time, it’s rare when one of them gets theirs, especially famous ones like Djoker.  Like other narcissists, he believes that simply because he’s really good at hitting a tennis ball he can inflict his warped existence on everyone around him with no consequences.  Australia proved him wrong, and that victory is especially sweet.

What’s infuriating, though?  This entire episode was easily avoidable by Djokovic doing the right thing and just getting vaccinated.  Just think of all the lives he could save, especially in his native Serbia where anti-vaxxers have caused the virus to surge again in a population that’s only 47% vaccinated.  That’s the real tragedy of Djokovic’s failure at being a decent human being.

Australia Boots Far-RW Talker for Violating Quarantine Rules

This is how you do it.  Katie Hopkins, sort of the UK’s version of Tucker Carlson, is very much a controversial personality, first gaining attention as a contestant on the UK version of The Apprentice about 14 years ago.  Since then, she’s been carrying the water for the extreme right in Europe writing columns and talking on radio and television.

As part of a new program to improve the economy by allowing television and movie crews into the country, Hopkins was granted a special visa into Australia to participate in the Australian version of the television show, Big Brother.  Under Australian quarantine rules, she was required to quarantine in a hotel for 14 days.  Under these rules she was to stay in her room and food would be brought to her.  Also under those rules, she was to wait 30 seconds after a door knock and then answer the door wearing a mask to retrieve the food brought to her.  She thought it would be really funny to not do that, but to immediately answer the door sans not only a mask, but also clothing.  AND she videoed herself doing that and then posted the video on social media.  She was trying to attract attention and draw a reprimand so she could then publicize government tyranny.

Well, she drew more than attention and a reprimand.  Officials from New South Wales arrested her, fined her $1,000 Australian dollars, and promptly put her on a plane back to the UK.  Australia is having none of the anti-science, anti-vax nonsense, and is actively working to protect its citizens, especially from idiots like Hopkins.  Oh, and here’s the best part – Big Brother Australia fired her from the show.

Boom.
