I posted the article in the news thread, apparently a women attacked the bloke and someone smashed his face in with a motorbike helmet, no wilting violets over there.Ireland had some school students stabbed by an immigrant. Just saw a video of the Irish burning down immigrant buildings and a hotel with people still inside.
I've seen this coming for a while. Imo it will be politicians and public screechers being targeted in the future. Everything over correcting now. WEF supporters will be scrubbing their online profiles.
As I said before , the Australian electorate is essentially conservative and Labor has to be pretty good to stay in power.
By goose-stepping resident extrists, I assume you mean to imply that we have actual Nazis here at ASF.Labor have been neo-liberalism for quite some time very much centre politics immigration laws, security laws etc are all very conservative yet Labor have either raised them or accepted them.
At at a social conscience level Labor have also been very moderate or community mainstream.
The Teals look more Labor than Coalition yet they are / were very safe Liberal seats.
All of this is at odds with the extreme language trotted out continuously / embarrassingly about Labor by goose stepping resident extremists'.
If the "Voice" was any indication, that seems to be another delusional commentAt at a social conscience level Labor have also been very moderate or community mainstream.
This seems to be the goto defense of left extremism, accuse anyone else who disagrees of being right wing loonies, this is the problem with identity politics and it's a "my way or the highway" approach, it leads to polar opposites.All of this is at odds with the extreme language trotted out continuously / embarrassingly about Labor by goose stepping resident extremists'.
The Right are pretty quick to jump on those who disagree with them as "Looney Lefties". Its the nature of politics that its difficult for extremes to meet in the middleIf the "Voice" was any indication, that seems to be another delusional comment

That's why as I said earlier for every action there's a reaction, the harder the left push, the harder the right will push the other way.
I voted for Albo and apart from the shocking voice presentation and the setting of unachievable renewable targets, he has done pretty good. The military is getting money spent, he is running a surplus due to inflation and as long as he can real in the inflation and the housing issue next year he should be o.k.
Time will tell.
That really is the problem and unfortunately it is the way the media likes to approach issues, which just fosters extremism and inflames individuals which ends up in name calling or worse.The Right are pretty quick to jump on those who disagree with them as "Looney Lefties".

The voice wasn't mainstream, if it was mainstream it would have got up, if it was legislated it would have got up, it was a nonsense that couldn't be explained and was open to interpretation, that's why it couldn't be explained.The language used these days about pretty much anything related to centre politics (left politics these days is very rare outside of the Greens) is built upon poisoned terms and extreme words words like marxist, communist, socialist, leftist, woke, on and on.
All the while running culture wars and what is it they stand for, not much IMHO.
Using marxist, communist forinstance is just dum fu9k stupid they simply don't exist in today's' political word in Australia or the US. Only reason for this is to be divisive, denigrating fellow citizens be like us or be condemned (origins in old religious recruiting methods) repeating US Republican lunacy , repeating group think, and so on.
Trump of course has raised it all to another level (its OK Trumps alright... no he fu**en isn't).
Of course behind the scenes money is being made as the useful idiots charge on reciting the verses.
The Voice was actually constructed under conservatives but rejected by the hard right and ultimately by Australians but if you looked at it objectively it was very mainstream, created recognition without transfer of power gave something without giving anything, yet out come the useful idiots using those poisoned terms and words.
It looks like another one is joining the hate list, from your ABC, it looks like the narrative is on the move.The language used these days about pretty much anything related to centre politics (left politics these days is very rare outside of the Greens) is built upon poisoned terms and extreme words words like marxist, communist, socialist, leftist, woke, on and on.

60 % of the population felt that a similar situation could have eventuated with the voice, it is only your fanatical belief in anything Labor, that stops you from entertaining any other possibility or any other options.
I hope they go back to a treaty proposal, nothing has changed from when Hawke was in, they believe they are owed for loss of land.TBH I thought it was a chance to change the conversation and allow some ownership from all sides, Labor being involved had nothing to do with my support.
I also had confidence due to it being drawn up by conservatives.
Any way its done and buried, move on.
They have already been compensated with land rights and settlements with mining companies for royalties, but t hose payments seem to disappear into dreamland.I hope they go back to a treaty proposal, nothing has changed from when Hawke was in, they believe they are owed for loss of land.
IMO move on, will only happen when they are compensated for perceived loss, that's even in our existing laws.
The rest is divisive and corrosive, we are one nation, we might one day have to stand shoulder to shoulder to protect it.
Having different recognitions depending on your race, religion or background won't work.
The voice was a brain fart, dreamt up by schemers IMO.
Pay them for dispossession, job and finish.

Only around dinner tables.The Right are pretty quick to jump on those who disagree with them as "Looney Lefties". Its the nature of politics that its difficult for extremes to meet in the middle
A treaty hasn't been agreed upon, so those land rights have to be put into the mix.They have already been compensated with land rights and settlements with mining companies for royalties, but t hose payments seem to disappear into dreamland.
As they are tribal and associate with their prefered area, it would seem the obvious way forward.Mundine though a national treaty was a waste of time he preferred each mob to have separate treaty like the Noongars here in WA.
Can't say I know much about the it.
Have you noticed my position on the subject hasn't changed and you have given up
I don't think they can stop the issue, it is rolling along, it has to be addressed one way or another.Nah haven't given up just a realist that no politician will be in a hurry to address the issue ever again or at least until the current crop of Coalition grifters pass through. I think Dutton will try to do real damage any where he can.
