He was pretty toxic back then, yes.LOL @ Richo decrying political violence.
He might be hung, drawn and quartered by midnight in todays' political world but not in 1980
He votes Liberal these days. Maybe copped a midnight visit the night before. Karma's a beech.

I think that comparison may be further analysis. On the one side it seems rather metaphorical however on the side of the q&A panel it seems to be a direct and we'll call to violence.You're forgiven
I consider Keiras' criticisms as incorrect based on her political disposition.
I consider Richos' comments as hypocritical based on his past.
I don't consider the ABC giving airtime to lefty panelists as endorsing their views.
Just as I don't consider the ABC giving airtime to Alan Jones as endorsing his views.
Which is ironic given both views are remarkably similar when it comes to advocating violence
Outrage has become the new normal. I really do think there are feminazis now.
I think social media is whipping up certain personality types into a frenzy. I have no answer for it.
Men are still constrained by society but women appear to have free reign.
We rule the world .... white men ... typically racist under-educated and corrupt. MAGA 2020
Forget about any non christian .... or god forbid non white ... or woman or Asian.
I so love this thread. Pity the Christchurch guy who was a member of this site is not here to add his two cents worth.
Sorry just vomited even typing that one.

Andrew Bolt: Calls for violence show ABC is out of control
You know the ABC has lost its impartiality when calls for political violence on a panel show go unchallenged. When will the Morrison Government hold the broadcaster to account, asks Andrew Bolt.
On Monday the ABC broadcast its most dangerous show yet. Why is it inciting political violence, including calls for killing and arson?
That Q&A show marks the ABC’s most open declaration of war against our culture.
Once again, Q&A was stacked with Leftist activists, this time including host Fran Kelly, despite the national broadcaster being required by law to be impartial.
Once again, Q&A had the foul language — lots of f-words — and anti-white racism that’s now common on an ABC that’s tipping into barbarity.
But on Monday the ABC went beyond crudity, bias and race-hate to actually spruik for political violence.
It started with this leading question, preselected by the show’s producers: “When trying to bring about significant change, when is aggression and violence a better option than assertiveness, strong arguments and modelling the behaviour you expect of others?”
The answer, in this democratic society, should be “never”. We must settle arguments peacefully, or else heads get broken and the most violent rule.
But on Q&A no fewer than four panellists seemed to defend or even recommend violence, with not one person objecting.
First was Ashton Applewhite, an “anti-ageism” activist: “There are many causes where people have resorted to violence as a way to finally break through and get heard and achieve what we need. And if that’s what it takes, that’s what it takes.”..
Mona Eltahawy, a militant feminist, suggested women should even kill men they believed were rapists: “Not the state, because I disagree with the death penalty … So I want women themselves (to kill).
“As a woman I’m asking, how many rapists must we kill until men stop raping us?”
A third panellist, feminist Jess Hill, defended Eltahawy’s call for murder: “I think if anyone is shocked by what Mona is suggesting, you just have to look back to history and a certain faction of the suffragettes in the earlier 20th century. They used violence.”
If that’s not incredible enough, the ABC had selected a fourth panellist who also defended political violence — Nayuka Gorrie, a race activist who identifies as Aboriginal.
In fact, Gorrie actually called for violence against non-Aboriginal Australians, who she claimed lacked morality and wanted to kill Aborigines: “We’ve tried for 230-plus years to appeal to the colonisers’ morality which doesn’t seem to exist …
“I think violence is OK because if someone is trying to kill you, there’s no amount of, ‘Oh, but I’m really clever’ … is going to save you, so, yeah, let’s burn stuff.”
And how did Fran Kelly respond to these calls for violence against an Australia variously described as anti-women, racist and murderous?
Like this: “That’s a really good moment to go to our next question.”
Kelly was too much a coward to confront them. Or is there a bigger picture? Is the ABC now so hostile to the Australian culture that it welcomes violence against it — if only to provoke a white backlash it can then denounce as “racist”?
In particular, does it kind-of want Aboriginal radicals to “burn stuff”?
Consider: in March, the final episode of the ABC’s Get Krack!n comedy starred two Aboriginal actresses who screamed “Burn this place to the ground!” as they smashed the set.
One, ABC playwright Nakkiah Lui, shrieked “f--- whitey” and “I s--t on your colonisation” as she pretended to defecate on a cushion printed with a white woman’s face.
And last Sunday, the ABC kept that “burn stuff” meme going in the latest episode of Total Control, in which Deborah Mailman plays an Aboriginal politician confronting a white society that’s painted as vicious and racist.
Sunday’s episode ends with Mailman telling an Aboriginal man: “You’ve heard of divide and rule … They’ve been doing that to us for 200 years.”
Rome, she tells the man, was “burned to the ground”.
She then hands him a can of petrol and a lighter: “So why don’t you do what needs to be done and I swear on my mum’s grave, I will make the c---s pay.”
Is the ABC mad? Is it trying to stir up a race war?
Yes, I’m for free speech. I don’t want any of these women — note, they’re all women — banned or jailed.
But I certainly don’t want them given a platform, unchallenged, on a national broadcaster that I must pay for. Nor should Australians have to subsidise an ABC that broadcasts calls for the violent destruction of their society.
So when will the Morrison Government hold the ABC to account? Or defund a broadcaster that’s totally out of control?

Sounds like a load of sensationalist bull to me.
Gimme a viewpoint from an unbiased broadcaster with credibility and I'll listen
Couldn't care less what Andrew Bolt thinks.
