asio posted:"I don't understand why that word can hurt people so I'll keep using it" - an internet person of colour You forgot queer. Now do you want to continue to lecture me about the hurtfulness of words? Because I can tell you from >personal< experience that there are shades of grey in this poo poo. Getting called a human being is way less hurtful than getting called a friend of the family. I've been called both of those words in a threatening manner, have you? Why are you even talking about this again, asio?

I like the assertion that 'people smugglers' really give a poo poo if the boats make it or not as they take money for putting people on them, not whether they get here. Desperate people aren't going to read too much into the policy details.

The racism is now running on an internal logic unaware of its absurdity. As if a gesture of humanity is going to ruin all that hard work of torturing children.

MT doesn't even fit the dictionary definition of fop, before you even go on to consider the colloquial. You're dumb and wrong, and being a big babby about being called out on it.

I just read that Tim WIlson's Salary was $400000 a year. That makes me pretty depressed. Also, how is Malcolm Turnbull a fop? I mean, he's rich, but that's not the same.

That Tim Wilson resigning thing isn't news is it? I remember reading something last week from here that he was going to do it, and a tweet from a (female?) politician that it was time to shut down the human rights commission?

Negligent posted:historically if people called you a foppish dandy it was code for poofter, hth Except it hasn't. Can you give an example of fop or dandy being used as code for gay? Because it doesn't mean that and never has. Not a single one of your synonyms means gay either. Seriously just read the Wikipedia articles on either term for a start, a dandy is one who places great importance in dressing well and having sophisticated tastes and hobbies. Fop is a pejorative meaning the person is as above in only the most superficial ways. A pretentious, upper class twit in other words. You're the one using the word incorrectly, and if you can show me to be wrong I'll buy you plats or something. katlington posted:The effete dandy postured histrionically So you added "effete" because dandy doesn't imply that on its own? What point were you making? I know this seems silly to waste so much time on this, but use language correctly please.

I can not see this ending well for her. -/- OK so we had the Royal Commission into Trade Union corruption which even if it was actually meant to dig dirt on Labor politicians pretty much completely failed to deliver. How many Federal Labor parliamentarians are currently under police investigation? My rough tally is zero. Compare that to the LNP with three cabinet ministers (Brough, Pyne and Roy ) currently under investigation and a recently resigned minister looking to face criminal charges. Jamie Briggs only resigned a couple of months ago. Also lol at Arthur Sinodinos claiming he did no wrong because he isn't actually in Goulburn Jail. If ever their was a royal commission needed into corrupt and criminal behaviour it isn't the ALP connections to trade unions it's the LNP and their dodgey mates. Don't touch the poop. Sometimes the post of the pooper is all the advertisement of their idiocy needed. This is one of those times.
