    I'm getting the feeling there is an intentional news blackout relating to the Australian trucker strike. As was mentioned above, all you can find online are news reports leading up to it, but nothing the day of or after the strike. Now it's reported that south Australia is dropping the mandatory vaccine for drivers? Obviously something happened down there.

    Start here?
    There's a lot of mistruths on both sides.
    This one here tho deserves a tinfoil hat.

    "There has been much shown on the politics forum on this.
    The reactions to the vaccine are in line with research. The research also dictates that the vaccinated will drop like flies in 3 years. Doubt it? That’s what happened to ALL the lab animals. That’s why there’s no long term research. All the animals died."

    Absolutely yes. YouTube can easily delete video uploaded from supporters of the strike as soon as they appear as can Facebook. Media outlets can be ordered not to report on it, or just choose not to if they're like CNN. Eventually it will get out, but the American left media has gotten quite good at not reporting on stories to achieve a particular political outcome. Remember Hunter Biden? You probably don't remember if you only watch network news.

    Or CDL Life is just parroting a press release.

    There have been many articles about South Australia easing travel restrictions, but nothing about eliminating vaccine requirements for essential workers.

    South Australia lifts restrictions for people travelling from Katherine and 11 LGAs in South East Queensland - ABC News South Australia lifts restrictions for NT and Queensland as hundreds protest at State Parliament

    There were plenty of stories about the blocking of the M1 for an hour, and both AP and Reuters covered the Aug 21st lockdown protest which did have violence and arrests.

    Hundreds arrested, fined during Australia lockdown protests

    I find it hard to believe there is a vast conspiracy that is blocking news of a massive, ongoing trucker strike.

    I don't watch FOX news, glorious or otherwise. Nice deflection though.

    I know several people that attended huge vaccine passport and vaccine mandate protests yesterday. Media hardly covered them and there were hundreds if not thousands in attendance. I absolutely do not doubt they're censoring anything that does not fit their narrative.
