What a perfect circle, demonise them, get hysterical about browns, and yay we have an event to ratchet up the fear and hate, guess where:quote:What about if someone of a particular nationality commits a crime, should we start a campaign against all from his country of origin? quote:So then: Libertarian Turnbull jailed and then deported an awful rightwing extremist Christian on the same day that an an underprivilegedIraqi migrant Along with many virgin jokes and multicultural dogwhistling of course.

They've called a comedian and a lawyer for fucks sake. Burn this country to the ground.

Mr Newman on the media, as quoted to Mr King "I am particularly annoyed at the journalists who covered the state election campaign [2011-12] and our time in parliament. Very few of them are interested in what really has to be done. They are not interested in Government or reform or the reasons behind the decisions we made. They are only interested in the tactical, the here and now, they only ever look for short-term politics and gossip. And they have got a nerve to ridicule people like me who tried actually get things done. And they have always ridiculed and sneered. They have never actually given any benefit of the doubt or been prepared to see the big picture. Their position on every story is that we are idiots, or we're corrupt, or we are doing this out of self-interest. They have no way of divorcing themselves from their inherently negative bias."

I can't resist another catallaxy quote. This is probably the most structured of the hysterical comments today:quote:“So how do you propose we punish these people collectively responsible for these crimes in Australia? We need to manage them, manage them good. Just like we're doing with those drat reffos. Imagine trying to do this with Asians or Greeks or Italians.

ewe2 posted:I can't resist another catallaxy quote. This is probably the most structured of the hysterical comments today: We have a word filter for certain gendered insults and occasionally words that are overused for trolling. We do this to encourage a safe space so some of us can shelter from the rape and domestic violence culture we are surrounded by. We do not apologize for this and will not change it, so don't bother complaining, try being an adult occasionally. And don't try playing us off each other, that's particularly juvenile. If you don't like it, go away, we will not miss you. A bot will also kick for repeating phrases and flooding and sundry words for the fun of the discovery. A ban of a day for the worst words is now standard, to encourage your self-discipline. Please also avoid offensive fake user@hosts, you will be banned until you change them if you want to participate. This became necessary after certain abuses. In a perfect world none of this would be necessary but it isn't, deal with it. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

This is how you de-radicalise people. The killing of a completely unsuspecting police employee is pointless and there can never be any justification. So what about all the completely unsuspecting civilians killed by our armed forces? If we were to take up an accounting of it I think the scales would tip irrevocably against us.

Memento posted:Where the gently caress do these people come from? What sort of loving child-abuse upbringing do you have to be subjected to that you think killing someone for performing a medical procedure is a good thing? This is from the end of the last thread, but it's calling it a 'medical procedure' which illustrates the lack of understanding of the issue. It's like calling offshore detention an 'immigration procedure'. That doesn't mean that what it actually entails isn't potentially objectionable. In this case, they're talking about the termination of human foetuses. In their view, life begins at conception. While admittedly debatable, it's not arbitrary or indefensible. Where do you think it begins? At what point would you stop allowing abortions? 14 weeks? 22 weeks? 28 weeks? Full term? Unless it's full term there's a line there somewhere, so what consequences should there be for the parties involved if they cross the line? In the mind of these people the line is at conception, and crossing it is the most serious crime, the literal murder of society's most pure and defenceless beings, so calling for the most serious punishment is not logically inconsistent, or even surprising. I guess what I'm saying is you'd do well to try a bit harder to understand where people are coming from.

EvilElmo posted:Are you guys sure this isnt just fanfic? /r/nosleep? This is the article from last year which first revealed what was happening: Royal Australian Navy personnel open up about trauma of seeing asylum seekers die at sea It's been 10 months since then and there's been nothing since. Yes, you could well argue that it's all a fever dream. But the government never denied what was in that article and have a death grip on information regarding refugees arriving by sea. And we know they're still arriving. So, people are coming, the navy is being told to ignore them and people are dying. Dude McAwesome posted:jfc, calm down, i'll get an answer by the end of the weekend (maybe if i end up going to the pub tonight) No, it's okay. I'm really not trying to rush you. After The Peccadillo posted he had gone and asked Andrew Leigh about this I thought the least I could do would be to get of my arse and do something myself.

I don't have the slightest reservations about abortion whatsoever. I am perfectly fine with late term abortion purely at the mother's discretion. But I don't believe the voices anti-abortionists should be suppressed, either.

Yeah, I'm totally pro-choice and always have been, but I don't find it particularly hard to understand why anti-abortion activists feel the way they do. It's not like stuff like gay marriage or racism where I can't even remotely begin to fathom how people cultivate such a frothing hatred. Abortion is an uncomfortable and unpleasant necessity.
