I posted this in the chill thread, but now this is open I want to say it again:

I've honestly lost count of the number of times some white person in a position of authority or power has faced the slightest push back from a minority and some goon has rushed in to say that racism against white people is totally real and just as bad and quoted loving dictionary definitions at people.

And then, in the space of half a dozen posts, has gone from "I'm the only one here who's really standing up for what's right" to "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children".


100% serious - as soon as someone posts that "the dictionary defines racism as..." you can start the countdown to racist implosion.

It's really bizarre. He didn't even get that much prodding, just a few questions, a bit of push back, and he completely flipped his lid, ranting about secret groups trying to destroy 'his' country.

It's like the movie, A Few Good Men when Tom Cruise's character is talking about how to get Jack Nicholson's character to admit he ordered an attack on one of his own men.

One of the legal team Cruise is working with wonders how they can get Nicholson to admit what he did, and Cruise points out he wants to admit it, he's desperate to admit what he did. He's not ashamed of it - he's proud of it. All he needs is the excuse.

A "You can't handle the truth!" tirade from the put-upon-martyr is what every person like that secretly lives for.


That said, it's a real bummer. I know I disagreed with the poster before, but I really thought they were better than that.

I had my bank, the Bendigo, call me several times asking me if I wanted to take out a home loan simply on the basis of being old with a steady income. Sure as hell wasn't because of my bank balance, or the size of my income. Pretty sure my rent, as bad as it is, is less than what I would be paying for a home loan when the price of an average 2 bedroom near me is over $650,000.

Felt incredibly weird. Like how, in the 80s, credit card companies would send you "pre-approved!" sign up forms so you could easily get yourself into life destroying debt.

I'm pro-nuclear power, but very much anti-nuclear power in Australia.

There's no way this sorry sack of cunts could be trusted to safely operate a nuclear power plant, no matter how well designed and safe they are now - which, to be sure, is very.

They'd either cut every corner, hide every failure because it would make the minister look bad if anything got out, or stock the upper levels of control of the station with bootlicking goons who'd run it into the ground. All while Dutton petitions to change the laws so they can bury waste in children's playgrounds in poor suburbs.
