hooman posted:You know the US has the deep south. We have the deep west and the deep north. Basically the further you get away from Melbourne the worse everything gets. The reason for this is 1) that the greed of the south can't be contained and 2) southerners moving north. Ever since qld has been getting rulers from down south, from Brisbane to Newman, the state has been beaten and plundered. What's the point of being banana/sugar/beef capital of the southern hemisphere if capitalists keep magicking away the money? It's nice that you have a little Europe down there with your quirky 'lanes' and paid graffiti artists but it's paid for with the blood of Queensland workers. Where do you think the ganja that inspires your hip new bands comes from? How does the year round fresh fruit that you blend up for your new peer-approved diet get in your organic local produce grocery store? Throw us a bone with state of origin, great. What does it say when the one time the odds are evened that Queensland is the best. "Oh but that's just rapey sport," well, show me one thing comparable in opportunity and I'll wager Queensland will be the best at that too.

These so-called "independent" "experts" are just further evidence of the blind money grabbing of advocacy parasites. I think you'll find a paper trail from them to the experts, all with the express purpose of more refugees seeking out torture opportunities just for a higher chance of getting into Australia.

People who were already fine with our concentration camps aren't going to say "Oh well the UN says it's wrong, guess I better revise my thinking." Instead they'll go "Fucken UN leftists pushing their agenda of taking over the world/not letting human beings suffer horribly, who do they fucken think they are"

Plan B - Obfuscate. No issue with torture happening here, was clearly the case all along. It's those other alleged countries. <Reserved for ad hominem about reading comprehension>. Plan C - Make poo poo up. Maybe it will work this time  Plan D - Come out swinging.

I'll re-ask it in a neutral tone: How do you feel about Australia's treatment of refugees now that evidence of torture has been presented and that we have been officially rebuked by the UN for breaching torture conventions in our treatment of innocent refugees? Considering your previous stance was, in effect, denying that such crimes had ever taken place, how has this changed your viewpoint towards this issue? e; on re-reading, it's hilarious that said question is neutral while being completely factual, which is probably indicative of just how hosed up poo poo is Murodese fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Mar 9, 2015 |

Facts are left biased and not neutral. Neutral means not being critical of either side no matter who is at fault. We are critical of both sides because both are loving complicit in the indefinite detention (at least) and torture (provisional) of children.

"Queensland's new minister for women says the state government should consider "positive discrimination" legislation to close the gender pay gap, which was at a 10-year high." No Queensland! Go back to your roots, women in the kitchen, aboriginals on reservations and sugar cane as far as the eye can see! Stop this positive progressive crap, it's confusing.
