Cristo, I have posted no real comments on Dan the Man. It is not my place to do so since, as you have pointed out, I live over 2,000 Kms away from Victoria. We also need a change in QLD as well and we have the Labour Party occupying the Government benches since 94, except for 6 years from memory. I will vote in my electorate for the candidate who will do the least amount of damage while elected.
What you have provided as your undisputable evidence is emotive rhetoric base on sketchy fact as you have acknowledge in your post. You want Dan the Man gone and you are presenting emotional rhetoric to entice people to agree with you. They same thing that Dan the Man is doing.
Actually, when Victorians began to realise that by not following the government directives of safe healthy practices and began to comply with them, the stats of the daily reported Covid19 virus cases, immediately became stable, but the rate at which the reported cases began to subside was relatively slow as the previously published charts on this forum shows.

The above graph shows that the control measures of the lock down did not begin to work until around 8-8-20 and the decay in the moving 14 day reported virus cases began a classical exponential decay pattern which took around 8 weeks to properly stabilise, and since 3-10-20 the dampening of the rate of change in the moving 14 day totals has oscillated around zero. The above graph proves that when people begin to be compliant that the control measures are working.
This quote shows your false understanding of who is actually responsible. Whatever I think has had no impact on your situation in Victoria. The only people who have had an impact on your situation are the people who live in Victoria, and more particularly those who live within the hard lockdown areas. I can have empathy for you as well as having sympathy for you, but what I think has had no actual impact on your circumstances.
I agree that Victorians should be no different to other Aussies, but the facts of the matter is, that a significant number of Victorians did refused to comply with the Gov directives and as a result all of Australia have suffered hardships because of that.
What I can see from your quoted post is that you are personally hurting from the effects of the second wave and you are blaming everybody but yourself for the situation that you and other Victorians have placed yourselves in. You and the other Victorians who selfishly did not want to comply with the government directives have also hurt the rest of Australia and caused substantial financial damage to them as well as yourself.
What you are not hearing at the moment are the rest of the hurting Aussies because of the Victorian 2nd wave complaining as much as you are, but when they start, believe me you will not want to be considered as a Victorian.
Shalom
