Smuppets

[Smuppet is a word of my own creation. It’s a portmanteau compiled from Social media puppet (or indeed, muppet). I came up with it to describe a brainwashed smuppet on the radio today, who said he won’t have the Covid jab because he felt he was being told too, and also that vaccine ID cards are an invasion of his privacy, his freedom and his human rights... duh!] * You borrow a book so you show them a card And you need a license to drive in your car For overseas travel it’s probably best To have a few jabs against some local pest You enter a bar or a nightclub or two And if you look young they want ID from you The post office leaves a note if you are out But without ID you are going without If you have a job to do, that’s good for you Security want your pass to let you through And if you drive in there’s an app on your phone That means you can park in the staff only zone Well, Facebook and Tiktok and Instagram too And PayPal and YouTube all know you are you Some know where you are and some know where you’ve been You’ve set up a world where you’re never unseen At pop festivals they put bands on your wrist To tell folk you’ve paid but a point you have missed So, ’No covid vaccine: No ID,’ you’ve bragged But all the above means you’re basically tagged You preach to the world it’s a privacy dive How awful that governments want you alive Your arguments frankly are all but anomalous When you claim your right to be Mr Anonymous * [I do, of course accept one’s right to refuse the jab so long as the reasoning is sound]
