Okay Phonelobster, come clean - are you being paid by the Australian Tourism Board?

In Australia that question is followed by "...and what did the pay out legally require you to keep secret forever?" and then also by "...Mr Prime Minister".

I can't stress enough how much Australia has a drinking problem. We keep having to add special addendums to major scientific surveys pointing out how by attempting to follow international norms the survey failed to grasp just how fucking drunk this country is because basically no one on the continen...

Former PM Bob Hawke was the (then) holder of the record time for drinking a yard of ale.

Bob Hawke somehow harnessed the Hat voter demographic while hardly ever wearing a hat. As such a political genius, but a traitor to the true labor movement.

Is the sobriety of the parliament now something that the voting public is now going to have to think about during elections going forward or is this relegated to just bring another quirky thing elected officials do? Since we apparently have no say in it I guess its a quirky thing foisted upon us by...

So that drunk guy being caught out obviously being drunk has finally allowed the mainstream to ask other members of parliament "hey... are you drunk?". Our first example is of course... the deputy leader of the party which that drunk guy from the last post used to lead. And she says, yeah,...

This 15% migration thing is not just nonsense on its face (no, racists don't accept 15%, no the racists and the non racists do not collectively compromise on 15%, holy shit). But did I not just finish telling you. Australia has been tracking how racist our population is. We implemented the racist an...

then blaming them all on immigrants/migrants. But you see. Migrants use public services. So if your own politicians you support spend 30+years destroying all public infrastructure for their personal profit. That's the fault of migrants. Because they like, went to the doctor this one time, fuck it, ...

Australia has any number of problems, but too many foreigns isn't one of them.

First Nations Australians may or may not fully agree...

Anyone else can fuck off and join the people they want to deport "going back where they came from" the moment those words pass their lips.

Apparently, in the midst of this Gaza Genocide president Genocide Joe has announced that he will... VISIT PALASTINE! Huh? Well OK. Um. EAST PALASTINE! Wait, which part of... THE TOWN EXPLODED BY A TOXIC TRAIN A YEAR AGO THAT HE REFUSED TO VISIT OR HELP IN ANY WAY FOR A WHOLE FUCKING YEAR. What. YES ...

Its amazing, you cannot convince these people that say, your nation should grant an innate human right to healthcare, you cannot convince these people anyone deserves ANY innate right for just being human, even on national rights you cannot convince them other nations even have a right to autonomy. ...

I also like how DeadDM has at vast length and word count described a bunch of social and economic ills ALL CAUSED BY HIM, or rather his prefered neo liberal policies and politicians being in total power for decades. Then he blames those ills on migrants and then blames migrants for the populist swin...

Fun thing about "Integration" policies. If you are born "here" you don't have to do them. Because you can do or be anything and you are already integrated no matter how contradictory it is to the "majority culture" or "greater good"... just because the policy ...

Oh. Did someone say center left party imagining they can appeal to a racist immigrant bashing voting block and the consequences of that? My fucking god. Hi, I'm from Australia, or on this one fucking issue, 30 years in your fucking future. So as it turns out this is one of those "NO ONE COULD H...

The Politian in Australian federal politics who is always the most obvious a beetroot faced drunk who is probably drunk right now and rather obviously attended parliament shit faced on a regular basis. A guy who I remind you was LEADER OF A MAJOR PARTY... WHILE IN COALITION GOVERNMENT... FOR YEARS.....

Saying they are just incompetent and not actively evil is both letting them off the hook and minimising the intent behind their actions even if the intent is not their own. Controlled opposition is controlled even if the actual members of that opposition do not know it. The control and the intent be...

Its a great idea. When your real agenda is to move everything to the right.

Stop trying to convince me you really are that stupid and not just pretending to be in bad faith. He already openly admitted the entire tangent is bad faith. So I guess, gotcha? He already stopped ages ago... before then just picking up and continuing like it was nothing. I guess its a new thing &q...

But this is already classified under petite bourgouise It's almost like someone anticipated childish attempts at exactly this sort of juvenile argument, already identified one of the largest and most important edge cases of being both categories at once, and discussed its functions and interactions...

If someone is 'two things' and those two things are ' tennis player ' and ' golfer ' that would make the term 'incoherent' Fixed that for you for clarity. Roles and class memberships aren't RPS elemental magic systems. They don't "cancel out". You can be 2+ things. Honestly you know I'm o...

Every single time I answer for DeadDM on these issues for him, I accurately predictively save him time and massive word count. Remember I said this? He is a "centrist" liberal. He believes that if a word was ever used by Marx then its probably a Communist Russiagate hoax and not really a w...

I thought admitting this was a both an off topic tangent he wouldn't otherwise engage in AND a bad faith argument but blaming it on other people was a bad faith way of disarming it and backing down quietly while saving face. Apparently not. Apparently despite those admissions it continues. Yep. Look...

I dunno. Is it bad faith if in the same Biden policy thread you refuse to defend your own assertions about Biden's Israel policies because that would be too off topic. But then you drown it in waffle of thousands of your own words redefining Marxist terminology in an attempt to pretend class struggl...

In the UK the labour party has just noticed as close to that as they can manage. They did all their Genocide support (and especially clumsily, and what with being in opposition with the polls heavily in their favor completely needlessly). JUST NOW they have noticed that there are more Muslim voters ...

It sounds like the Biden Administration is making preparations to call for a Palestinian state. ... HE FELL FOR IT TOO! Even, and only, after I pointed at it as also laughably fake. There is power in the ignore feature. Just as soon as they defeat Iran hey. Yep. So real. So cool. So convincing. Imm...

Oh look a fake distraction announcement of a fake ass weak distraction policy from weeks ago that hasn't manifested in meaningful terms and won't do anything to stop anything if it did. Stoopid DeadDM. The fake announcement meant to be pointed at as somehow equal to stopping the killing for THIS wee...
