$1,000 fine for walking off a designated trail in Victoria

Just like with mask mandates, I have no fears of the police or park rangers. I fear my fellow Victorians who will surely yell and abuse me once again.

It will be my neighbours who are so nice today.

It will be those whose children share the parks and playgrounds with my children today.

Yes, they are the people that will 'police' such a ban, and once again do their best impersonation of the Stasi.

I think Lurch knows this too...culture is determined by the everyday interactions we have in public. And if he can empower the little tyrants in the community, he can once again weaponise everyday interactions against 'non-compliant' problems (which we call voters who have had enough of Daniel's endless social engineering).
