“If you show your papers to attend a Remembrance Day ceremony, you’ve already forgotten”

Remembrance Day (November 11th) recalls the end of the First World War. “If you show your papers to attend a Remembrance Day ceremony, you’ve already forgotten” is a saying that has been printed on several images. “Show your papers” refers to vaccine passports associated with the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. The saying means that accepting these restrictions on freedom insults what soldiers fought for.

Wikipedia: Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day (also known as Poppy Day owing to the tradition of wearing a remembrance poppy) is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth member states since the end of the First World War to honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty. Following a tradition inaugurated by King George V in 1919, the day is also marked by war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries. In most countries, Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the end of First World War hostilities.

Masks and vax passes are for slaves.
It’s hypocritical to use them while wearing a poppy to represent freedom and those who fought and / or died to retain yours.

The woman told crowds at Kelowna’s City Park: “A veteran once said, ‘If they ask you for your papers, they have already forgotten.’ I believe this Remembrance Day has more significance than all the ones we’ve had since World War 2.”

‘If you have to show your papers to attend a Remembrance Day ceremony, you’ve already forgotten.’
Today is Remembrance Sunday. Those we are remembering fought for our freedoms, not for a life of tyranny and dictatorship.
