The lunatic left

I was in the ACT today and heard the story on the car radio. Couldn't help but metion this to the Lady Florist I next stopped at and asked 'did she know of the WoolShed in Hinkley??..... she said 'yeah' ....
And then, the offer they'd put forward..... She reached into her blouse and said 'I'm ready to offer my support, make mine a double' ....
true story.
 
Ah yes, the Woolshed....

It's a CBD nightclub thinly disguised as a pub with a very intentional "country pub" aesthetic for those not familiar. Best known for a mechanical rodeo bull and pop / rock music at ground level, more typical nightclub music and no bulls upstairs.

As a friend who's owned and run several nightclubs elsewhere assures me, they've actually pulled of a genius stroke of marketing here. They've managed to advertise in every state via all mainstream media, including the ABC, and all for just $3897. They're now the best known club in Adelaide for those who don't live there but who may visit as tourists - and they've done this just weeks before the Adelaide 500 with a marketing image aimed straight at that demographic.

And as she puts it, anyone who'd boycott the place due to that promotional stunt isn't the sort of person, male or female, they want as customers anyway.

Nailed it. :2twocents
 
More from that radical GreenLeft, Commo out-fit the OECD....

* More effective policies are also needed to improve outcomes for Indigenous Australians.
*Revenue should be raised by reducing exemptions in the goods and services tax
*. Reforms to tax, childcare, education, social benefits and parental leave would improve labour market opportunities for women,
* In addition, further reducing tax concessions on private pensions would more closely align their tax treatment with that of other forms ....

For a window on the rest of the whole dystopia; if you can bear it, see below....


 
Many others did take issue with a white woman opening a sushi restaurant.
The issue here isn't the restaurant.

It's that Americans see racism as normal to the point it's expected someone doing x will be of a particular race.

Why on earth does someone's race or nationality have anything to do with their ability to run a restaurant? It's the style of food not something to do with the person who owns it or works there.

Or should I say McDonald's isn't American it's actually South Australian because if I go to the nearest one well I'm pretty sure 100% of the people working in it live in SA. :2twocents

It's a big taboo over in the States to profit from someone else's culture, it's like people getting fined for selling fake native American Indian art and craft, but then it's okay for Indians to sell it in their own shops.
 
Admittedly Melbourne has finally brought left and far right together. Together in hating Jews. We had Canada parliament praise an actual nazi in parliament the other month.

God help us if things get anymore stupid on this planet.
