No it's all wrong.
No it's all wrong.Two wrongs don't make a right. ?
From the article:Why are Democratic billionaires backing white candidates over better candidates of color? | Steve Phillips
With white billionaire friends like these, progressives and Democrats are likely to lose political power and also set back the cause of racial justice in this countrywww.theguardian.com
The 2022 Democratic primaries have seen a surge of white billionaires, ostensibly Democrats, throwing their weight – and their money – around to try to boost the fortunes of hand-picked, under-qualified white men running against candidates of color. They are doing this despite the candidates of color often being more experienced and better suited to both win and govern in a period of fractious racial conflict where democracy itself is under ferocious attack. With white billionaire friends like these, progressives and Democrats are likely to lose political power and also set back the cause of racial justice in this country.
Common sense tells me that altering the composition of the earth's atmosphere is likely to cause some effect on something. Chance the input and there's going to be some change in output.I truly believe the established science of climate change blaming CO2 will be seen in a 100 year in the same way as the established science of eugenism and craniometry were 100y ago.
my views on the Democrats ( and the ALP ) align with those of Malcolm XTwo wrongs don't make a right. ?
What a great system of Governments, I don't know how someone like Jacqui Lambie or Pauline Hanson would get the funding to run for office in the U.S, bring on the Republic where the rich can buy a seat and then make the rules.

and you can add the "You will not eat meat" in the same wagon etc.Common sense tells me that altering the composition of the earth's atmosphere is likely to cause some effect on something. Chance the input and there's going to be some change in output.
The detail, however, is far more complex and the one thing we know with certainty about the earth's climate is that we don't fully understand it.
The big problem is that what ought to be an area of scientific study and practical response has been hijacked for purely political purposes. As an example of that, take cars. The problem, if we accept as a given from here on for the purpose of this example that CO2 is a problem, is the CO2 emissions from the car's exhaust. That's the problem and so the fix requires that we stop those CO2 emissions by some means. How we do that, how we stop the CO2 being released, doesn't matter so long as it works and isn't causing some other serious problem in itself.
Trouble is however, more than a few won't accept any approach that doesn't involve simply getting rid of cars altogether as the means of doing it, suggesting their real objective isn't about CO2 but is about getting rid of cars.
Similar examples exist with quite a few things. Rather than fixing the claimed problem, they want a very specific solution and no other solution will do.
World government eh?The world has had one before, the Roman Empire was basically a world government.
Roman Power
A Thousand Years of Empire

You still had Wayne's Germanic ancestors causing trouble (and probably mine and his Scottish and Irish ones).Yes, at the time that was the pretty much the whole world. No jet liners, no phones or internet.

Andrew reelected in Victoria.
Assuming the results were not rigged, a big ask nowadays, how the hell can this happen?
The Reset is here.if such a leader can be reelected, by votes, in the West, democracy has failed
And this is not a right or left issue, this is a fundamental freedom, democracy and western principles failure.
Poor Australia/Australians,the future is grim....
So sorry but the actual vote was not rigged. Was at the Count myself to make sure. As a scrutineer.Andrew reelected in Victoria.
