Greta and the group are getting into Roger Federer now.

'Wake up': Fresh twist in Greta Thunberg's spat with Roger Federer

Roger Federer has been dragged back into the climate change debate that prompted fierce backlash against the tennis champion.

I wonder how many of the protesters in the rally drove there and have electricity on in their house? Yet they call out Federer for one of his sponsors.
It really is time they looked in a mirror IMO.

I prefer neither - so I would vote to get rid of both.

The performance from both sides in this debate merely reinforces the above view.

It's pathetic.... embarrassing.

I can't get behind this argument. Are we expecting these people en-masse to band together to create a widely acceptable/efficient/environmentally-friendly transit system? It would be cutting off your nose to spite your face.

No I would just expect them to where possible, lead by example, I travel by bicycle wherever possible and public transport if available.
I dont see many young people using either, yet see many attending rallies to call for change, with regard the climate.
I wonder if it is driven by a desire for change, or just an opportunity to gather and feel a degree of achievement.

Any word on the Mildura Malitia the Fanatical Fabian alliance and afiliated Commo consortium. Dan Andrew's is that far to the right he's got to be sorted out; a 'simple ' quick adult-knapping and things will be on a roll.... pressures on, DefCon 1... have got move now; it loooks like the Wentworth Wolvirines have been infiltated.
This website and thread are that obscure it's our only safe place .... get back to me operatives.....

With Statues Gone, Pigeons Forced To Poop On Rioters

U.S.—With more and more statues across the country being pulled down, pigeons are being forced to redirect their payloads to different targets.

As soon as statues are pulled down, the pigeons turn toward the nearest available target: angry rioters.
"Yes! Down with racism--AHHHHH!!!!" screamed one rioter just after pulling down a statue of Christopher Columbus. The pigeons immediately turned on him, with a squadron of the birds divebombing him to unload hundreds of pounds worth of excrement. "Run!!!"
Rioters frantically tried to put the statues back up as they were attacked by the feral flocks. "Put Christopher back! Quick!" cried one Antifa group as they were swarmed by a whole fleet of pigeon bombers. But try as they might, their weak liberal arms could not lift the statue and they were forced to flee the scene.

It's a reasonable expectation that if someone genuinely opposes something then they won't themselves be doing it.

Someone who's worried about resource use and pollution isn't going to be constantly buying consumer goods and won't be flying first class for example. Not if they're genuinely concerned they won't.

So if you dare to use electricity in your house then you don't get to voice your opinion on climate change?
Only people that can afford an EV and solar panels to feed it may protest! Forget anyone in public housing; they don't get a say!
I may not agree with their message but I won't stick my fingers in my ears because they use the most convenient current method of transport and living.

Getting back to the original story; I absolutely have a problem with the incessant "cancel culture" that exists nowadays. If something upsets people then it gets expunged from history. All this succeeds in doing is stopping people from learning from the past (and therefore being doomed to repeat it).

If you are referring to my comments, I think I obviously phrased my comments incorrectly.
The point I was making, is a lot of people in Australia complain about climate change and global warming, yet do very little to mitigate their own personal power usage, therefore their own usage is contribution to the very problem they are complaining about.
So in reality, are the very same people who complain about our emissions, just wanting to use the same amount of energy but want it to come from a clean source?
Australia with 25million people, uses the same amount of power as Indonesia with 250million people, maybe we are over users and that should be addressed.
In the real world there is nothing for nothing, Australia could reduce its energy consumption quite easily just apply a tax to devices e.g a mobile phone tax, internet connection tax etc, then use that tax to clean up data transmission power supplies.
Every person you see, spends every waking moment on the screen of a phone, communication providers are one of the biggest energy users in Australia.
Whether we use fossil fuel or renewables to provide the energy, if we are massive consumers, something is paying for it, be that the climate with fossil fueled generation or the environment and habitat with renewables and storage.

I noticed on the SMH website, the guy with the red handkerchief on his head, has finally taken it off, it must have dawned on him that there are more to things than image and hiding stuff. ?

Maybe he finally realised he looked like a w@nker.

Yes, hopefully the changes continue through to his articles, weird on a lot of levels IMO.

That is perhaps asking a bit much... a bit like asking Adam Bandt not to be an absolute fruit loop.

Wasn't he a rugby player in a previous life? Too many knocks to the head maybe.

This year has had some awesomely stupid stories of idiocy. But rainbow kinky furries on the paedophile spectrum takes the cake

 

[moXJO]

I use to wonder where Qanon got some of their way out conspiracies.



They were madly pulling down stuff from their website. But internet's going to internet.
I'm not sure which part of all of this is the funniest. It's rich on so many levels.

This is 'peak wokeness'.

I noticed it's all silent on south Africa. Place is literally burning.

Cuba as well.

The world definitely looks in 'reset mode'.

Yep it's all good, now they have got rid of the white trash.

‘Hell’: Chaos as country erupts

Troops have been deployed in South Africa after at least 45 people were killed in rioting and deadly stampedes sparked by the jailing of ex-president Jacob Zuma.
