Aaaww, to be made wealthy for something completely useless to society.
The Australian Open tennis tournament will start on the 17th of January this year and will end on the 30th of January. Given the situation that the whole world has to deal with, Australia is known to be a country that is succeeding in tackling the virus as 90% of its population have been vaccinated, and a requirement for all those who come to Australia to be vaccinated is in place. So those who were welcomed to participate in the tournament could only receive their visa if they are vaccinated. There are some exceptions made for those who cannot be vaccinated because of their medical conditions, but an exemption can only be granted in these severe cases with a credible explanation of the situation. One of the cases in which a person can be granted an exemption is when they are severely allergic to the vaccine.

Correction, gooberpeas, it would be an open and dying society. What’s so difficult to understand?
It is known that the player also tried to get an exemption in order to still be able to participate in the tournament. This only proved that Djokovic did not get vaccinated and has said some opposing thoughts about it. However, his beliefs clashed with the government requirements. So once he stated that he has been given an exemption, a lot of people were shocked and disappointed that his status outweighs the regulations that had to be followed by everyone.

I just listened to Novak’s father making ludacris accusations, comparing his son to Jesus and saying that he suffers as Serbians suffered throughout history. As far as I know 1. Jesus didn’t play tennis and he cured diseases instead of spreading them and 2. Australia has never invaded Serbia in its history.
The player arrived in Melbourne on Wednesday night. Soon after, he was taken to an immigration room while his documents were reviewed, having in mind that he couldn’t be allowed to enter the country as he didn’t fulfill necessary requirements. Later he was transferred to a hotel for those who are held in immigration detention. Now he waits for a trial that should be held on Monday to see whether his visa will be denied.

And if Djokovic enters and wins, he will never need to buy a beer in the Shire. Yes, I know it is fictional, just like his Covid convictions.
This situation gained a lot of attention as people want to know whether Australia’s government will keep its promise to treat everyone equally despite their status and wealth. Scott Morrison, Prime Minister of Australia, assured people that Djokovic will have to go through the same rules as everybody else. Despite tons of people disagreeing to justify his moves and even making fun of the whole situation, the player received support from his family as well as other people who thought that he’s been harassed.

Novak is like Tom Hanks…in The Terminal. He might soon start collecting coins from shopping carts.

The world: In 2022 we got war in Kazakhstan, possible Russian invasion, pending gas and oil crises, the most widespread Covid outbreak, China taking away the last bits of Hong Kong’s autonomy and banning free speech, threats of new severe weather due to global warming and Djokovic not getting a visa for Australia. The media: Let’s zero in on Djokovic and make it our headline story of 2022 so far.

And Elon Musk picks Novak up in his rocket and they organize their antivaxx tennis space jam in an appropriate diick-shaped rocket.

To be fair, some idiot in the country DID allow him to enter the country initially. They need to get their act together.

I don't know... personally I've lost my patience and cannot laugh with these behaviours anymore! I find them extremely disrespectful to all those people who have died or have serious respiratory issues after the disease and all those Healthcare workers who cannot deal with that anymore!!

This is a reference to the corrupt immigration minister making a special exception to visa rules for a friend's au pair while keeping a little family locked up for YEARS at the cost of millions of dollars after removing them forcefully from a small community where they were loved, working, and part of the fabric of society; oh how I loathe the current Australian government 🤬

He already organized an unsafe tournament in Serbia in the middle of Covid, which resulted in multiple people getting Covid. He's shown that he does not care about anybody else's health. He has also trashed other players, been rude to officials, talked down to everyone and publicly stated more than once that female tennis players are inferior and don't deserve to be given equal status to men. I hope this tanks his career completely.

The guy is an idiot dangerous person completely delusional and he was like this long before the virus! He and his wife are uploading videos of how the water can change your emotions and go on search to find ancient trees to hug to get positive energy ffs! He needs professional help it is not funny anymore and i don't even care how good tennis player he is! He is a horrible example for his fans and i also hope his career gets destroyed! Unfortunately I'm afraid they will make him the hero of antivaxxers and this is not good for anyone

He's just another run of the mill misogynistic homophobic racist that thinks he's better than everyone else bc he feels entitled. He never has to face any consequences so he'll continue to be this way. Narcissists never change. They suck the life and light out of everyone and everything they come in contact with including a whole continent. This personality defect is truly insidious.

It's good to see that Australia are sticking to their guns. If Djokadick can prove his vaccination status, or that he's had covid recently, or is medically exempt, then there really isn't a problem, is there? However if he thinks he can manipulate the rules to suit himself because he's rich and famous, then it's his own fault.
