    Years ago on twitter some random disabled guy called Dutton a “rape apologist”, and got sued to oblivion and utterly destroyed his life and family.

    This guy is a monster.

    Luckily he thinks he can become prime minister without the “woke left city dwellers” (most Australians live in cities), and is pushing a ludicrous nuclear energy agenda that is devoid of financial or environmental logic. So I’m fairly confident Albo will get re-elected.


  • In Australia we believe in equality, so I’ll piss off all the states.

    Victoria : “afDanistan”, wokeville. Small latte drinkers who don’t have a driver’s licence. Labourers and Stop/Go people on $200,000.

    New South Wales: dumb boomers on $3m property. Driving at 80kmh on their Learner drivers plates. Shit at rugby. Sydney nightlife ends at 9pm.

    South Australia: “oh yeah I have an auntie there I think.” Nothing to do. Their water tastes funny. Churches everywhere. Weird 1.5hr timezone.

    Western Australia: If you want to know why there’s a wait time for Toyota’s, it’s bloody WA buying them all. Full of cashed up bogans in lifted land cruisers. Have to watch footy at lunch time because they are 3 timezones away. If you are anti social and don’t mind a 6hr drive to anywhere live there.

    Tasmania: 10 people live there with a mild sense of imbreeding. Looks kinda nice, but why would you go to Tassy if you can go to New Zealand for the same price.

    Northern Territory: biggest employers, the mines and Pine Gap (the CIA base). Otherwise it’s Australia’s poverty lane.

    Australian Capital Territory: Australia’s Uni campus. A concrete jungle, a tiny town where we keep the big wigs who are driven everywhere in black BMWs or Camry’s.










  • That’s a great question. What I would say is the wheels of justice turn painfully slowly.

    I am sure Antony Blinken is well aware of domestic concerns over the wellbeing of Gazans, the unfortunate reality is any big decision against or at Israel will come with negative consequences.

    The path of least resistance might be allowing the Israeli’s to squeeze out their own leader democratically. Is that the best way? Well, probably? Not always?

    A pacifist may look to the Vietnam War, Libya or Iran and say action was injustice, an activist might look at the Rwandan Genocide and say pacifism was injustice. Diplomacy has to do it’s thing.
