 Pope:  Refugees and asylum seekers in Australia for medical treatment from Manus and Nauru are staying for legal challenges, Dutton responds by calling their lawyers un-Australian and cutting off all government support such as food and housing. Wilcox:  Rowe:  Channel Ten bought by CBS, everyone is thankful it wasn't Fox.

This storm has apparently dumped more rain than like three other hurricanes combined. I'm not one to conflate weather with climate, but there does seem to be a pattern of worsening weather. My question is how long Republicans can keep denying until the public realize this poo poo ain't supposed to be normal. I mean, I know the plan is "hope to be dead before then," but there's now a whole generation of idiots who will have to take the blame.

Their base is all but mindless, and so long as Republicans exert authoritarian rule through suppression of the population and democracy itself, they ain't gotta do poo poo. Doesn't really help that a not-insignificant number of representatives are just as loving stupid as their voters.

Yeah, not sure what this says about me, but, I'll feel a lot more comfortable bitching about Democrats and wanting to replace them with a better option once they're in charge again and I can go through the day relatively confident that we aren't taking a running loving leap backwards on every sociopolitical issue ever in the meantime.

Well, they can continue to keep an iron hold on climate science and findings about climate, but I think it's going to devolve to the point where denying that climate change happening will be like the fireworks scene from Naked Gun. Right now, climate change is a fairly abstract concept that they can rail against and call "socialism" or "a Chinese hoax" or whatever. Nobody's really feeling a direct impact that they can trace back to global warming. But as huge, catastrophic storms keep happening, and more often, it's going to get harder to deny that something's up. All the authoritarian rule in the world can't suppress that forever.

In an ideal world there would be two or more relatively decent choices that give you a chance to really voice how you view the country should go. Instead we have one option that can be kind of iffy versus a choice that is steadily going completely insane.

If the best argument you can make for your side is "it's technically not illegal to make this argument" then you might be on the wrong side

True, they still have reprehensible opinions and usually just think Trump is bad PR for the GOP rather than disagreeing with him outright, but I expected ALL of them to fall in line once he became president. Their frustration is that they can't keep covering for him with mealy-mouthed spin if he keeps actually saying what he means, profusely

toanoradian posted:Finally, a return to form for Pioneer Lunar Dog. Do Australia have Nazi problems too now? Not literal Nazis but there's a strong racist / nationalist trend in politics at the moment. Putting refugees in concentration camps run in client states in the Pacific dates back to 2001 (shortly before September 11 / the invasion of Afghanistan, although there is a link given it was response to an influx of asylum seekers from the region). It's not a recent thing.

Ah yeah, the refugees camp. I was so caught up in the "Nazi situation" in the United States being, you know, some people hailing hitler and saying "Jew will not replace us" that I somehow completely forgot the actual Australian government actually had a ruthless campsite meant to imprison helpless people for the longest time. gently caress. Pants Donkey posted:
I'm sorry, the very premise of this cartoon, that Trump is the one to spend effort to unmask Antifa, and that Soros himself will be one of the Antifa masked members, is utterly hilarious to me. It's just...so childish and simplistic. The way Trump just said "Soros" with no exclamation point and the way he just sorta looked angry to the side adds to the hilarity.
