Observing the indulgence shown towards massive BLM protests by previously lockdown-absolutist Democrat governors and mayors, actor and Twitter gadfly **James Woods** remarked that we could expect an imminent outbreak of sick leftists or we would realise once and for all that lockdowns were a con. Win-win, you might say.

Sheep that they are, Australia’s leftists dutifully had their marches and shook their little fists *en masse*. Of course, Australian authorities, who just a fortnight before had arrested anti-lockdown protesters and banned citizens from visiting their mums on Mother’s Day, went along with it. Lo and behold, a week or so later, there’s been a spike in infections.

But it’s still nowhere near a “second wave”.

Still no “Second Wave”. The BFD.

That hasn’t stopped the leftist governments who allowed the protests to go ahead scrambling to cover their arses.

> A fourth Black Lives Matter protester has tested positive to coronavirus in Victoria amid the state’s “concerning” virus spike, but they are not believed to have contracted COVID-19 at the demonstration.  
>  
> The demonstrator, who attended the rally in Melbourne’s CBD on June 6, was linked to a virus outbreak at retail store H&M Northland.  
>  
> **Victorian Health Minister Jenny Mikakos** said two cases linked to the retail outlet had been detected overnight, taking the virus cluster’s total to four.

Except that there’s something a bit whiffy about that excuse.

> However, the protester – H&M’s third infected staff member – did not work at the store while infectious\[…\]  
>  
> Victoria has recorded 16 new cases of coronavirus, taking the state’s COVID-19 tally to 1847 after five cases were removed due to duplication.  
>  
> **Victorian Chief Health Officer Professor Brett Sutton** today said he did not believe the Black Lives Matter protest had contributed to the state’s virus spike.

**Well, he would say that, wouldn’t he?** After health officials lent their endorsement to the protests, they’re not about to admit that they screwed up. **Again.**

On the other hand, if tens of thousands of people can cram together in Australian cities with no outbreak, then the whole lie of lockdowns is brutally exposed.

> Of the 16 new cases, six were linked to known outbreaks, four were detected in hotel quarantine, five were from routine testing and one case remains under investigation, Ms Mikakos said.  
>  
> Ms Mikakos\[…\]said the state government was “very concerned” about the level of community transmission.

Must have been all those [reckless, negligent anglers](https://goodoil.news/the-blatant-double-standards-of-lockdowns/), obviously.
