Stop trying to ban activities that salt of the earth working men use to escape their wives and families is what I'm saying to the greens people itt.

So we nationalised your pastime and turned it into a house for refugees, please accept these complimentary tickets to a commune production of "Waiting for Godot" as compensation.

Counter point, the North Adelaide golf course is lovely and it making money means that section of the parklands is much nicer than it would otherwise be.

Imagine if instead of people going there to participate in a sport from Europe they instead paid to have their hair braided and click their fingers on a sliding income scale.

I haven't got a problem with golf generally. I love a good round. Just bugger off with the immaculately manicured exclusive inner city courses. I used to play at the Carbrook 18 Holes in south Logan. Barely cost anything to play, was on the Logan River so it didn't use too much water, and it was largely native trees and scrub except for the fairway. True working class golf course. Race days though can gently caress right off.

Golf would be a lot more fun if, instead of having to get the ball into the hole, you had to get the ball to hit moving targets like Andrew Bolt and Caleb Bond.

I need to try and find the conversation a greens councillor from Moreland was having on FB with constituents about talking to "working people outside of our lived experience" it was p funny.

To actual stupidity: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-06-21/government-may-have-set-itself-up-to-fail-with-this-budget/8636216 quote:But by arguing the budget is one that eases the cost of living for families, has the Government over-egged its sales pitch and set itself up to fail its own test? The obscene surplus was only achieved by an aggressive and stupid privatisation campaign. To compare it to a household budget: We can now afford to rent for a few years because we sold our house. These clowns are painfully and aggressively stupid. I guess I know where pubbie WoT players come from.

What if you're from a working class background, but have been moderately successful thanks to white/male privilege and have thus obtained the status of Middle Class Inner City Latte Sipper what then edit: Obtained, not retained

the concept of 'middle class' has been so watered down over time by everyone in the comfortable working class saying they're 'middle class' it's just now more FYGM class warfare. Unless you're a consulting surgeon or are a partner of a law firm or own a chain of malls, and you can play golf all week and maybe take a few business calls stop calling yourself 'Middle class' and start hating the people with real money who continue pitting us all upon each other

There is no such thing as a middle class, which is why the entire concept of the ALP shills ITT making GBS threads on the Greens for being "middle class socialists' is as stupid as shilling for the ALP in the first place. Thanks for playing!

Aesculus posted:i'm actually an active nsw greens member I'm gonna back you in, if only because we really don't engage with the poor outer rim and rural electorate. We leave Labor Right, LNP and ONP to fight amongst each other on culture wars instead of providing a radical socialist rhetoric to resonate with them. I'm not blaming our campaigners - if there's one thing that they hate more than rich elites ruining their lives, its bussing in a bunch of inner city doorknockers to tell them how to live their life.
