The bourgeois sees his wife a mere instrument of production. He hears that the instruments of production are to be exploited in common, and, naturally, can come to no other conclusion that the lot of being common to all will likewise fall to the women.
He has not even a suspicion that the real point aimed at is to do away with the status of women as mere instruments of production. For the rest, nothing is more ridiculous than the virtuous indignation of our bourgeois at the community of women which, they pretend, is to be openly and officially established by the Communists. The Communists have no need to introduce community of women; it has existed almost from time immemorial.
Our bourgeois, not content with having wives and daughters of their proletarians at their disposal, not to speak of common prostitutes, take the greatest pleasure in seducing each other’s wives.
Bourgeois marriage is, in reality, a system of wives in common and thus, at the most, what the Communists might possibly be reproached with is that they desire to introduce, in substitution for a hypocritically concealed, an openly legalised community of women. For the rest, it is self-evident that the abolition of the present system of production must bring with it the abolition of the community of women springing from that system, i.e., of prostitution both public and private.

Back at the marches for SSM in late 2000s there was a lot of pissed offedness at SAlt for trying to co-opt every single left with agenda. It was really bad at the SSM ones because then it was a loose coalition but the SAlt really fought to be in charge and tryong to morph it into some Trotskyite policy pissing off everyone else.

It also contributed to the downfall of pro-Palestine uni activism because they took that over too so any movement against Israel Nationalism got lumped in with Full Stalinist Jewish Purges Now.

There were also the two guys dressed as Guy Fawkes marching in the SSM with signs about Anonymous. That was loving weird.

I really on a personal level hope the Che Guevera signs poo poo have vanished by now, that was a 30 year old meme.

they do seem to genuinely have a lot more queer members now, so from their perspective the ssm campaign would be a great success.

it's a shame that they have to alienate everyone so much by being so ineffectual and... culty

Why can't we wait to collect evidence for terrorism related things but when someones ex partner stalks them, threatens them, and very clearly is going to kill them the Police will often do nothing until they actually do something substantial?

How is this any different? Terrorists in Australia rarely kill more people in one go then your standard violent partner offing the kids and wife/husband.

quote:

A ReachTEL poll for Sky News, conducted on Thursday from an unusually big sample of 4888, has Labor’s two-party lead at 53-47, out from 52-48 at the previous poll on August 23. The primary votes are all but unchanged, with the Coalition steady on 34.5%, Labor down 0.3% to 36.4%, the Greens down 0.1% to 10.2% and One Nation up 0.6% to 11.0%. On 2016 election flows, the result would have come in at 54-46. The poll has Malcolm Turnbull leading Bill Shorten 51.7-48.3 on preferred prime minister; Turnbull’s performance rated as very good or good by 26%, average by 34% and poor or very poor by 39%; Bill Shorten’s respective numbers coming in at 31%, 31% and 37%.

Ppm narrowed significantly.

quote:

Queensland Opposition leader Tim Nicholls has left the door open to governing with One Nation support by accepting the minor party’s vote on the floor of parliament after the next state election.

In a softening of his language towards Pauline Hanson’s resurgent party, Mr Nicholls again ruled out a coalition with One Nation but said after the election, the government would have to “deal with the parliament that Queensland elects”.

“No deal, no coalition, no room at the cabinet table,” Mr Nicholls said when asked whether he would rely on One Nation’s vote at any time.

“Anything after that, and anything after the election, is purely hypothetical.

“I think governments need to deal with the parliament that Queensland elects and we’ve always said we’ll deal with the situation as Annastacia Palaszczuk has done with the Katters (crossbenchers) and the independents in this parliament

Recent polls have predicted neither major party will be able to govern in its own right, and would need to form minority government with One Nation support.

Asked whether he would rule out accepting One Nation’s vote on the floor of Queensland parliament, Mr Nicholls said he would “wait and see” what the election delivered.

“I say to the people of Queensland, if you want to get change, the only way you’ll get change is voting one for the LNP,” he said.

Australia.”

“We’ll wait and see what the people of Queensland deliver; in the meantime we’ll go for every vote.”

`Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk attacked Mr Nicholls over his comments.

“You cannot trust Tim Nicholls,” Ms Palaszczuk said.

“I have been saying this time and time again. He will do a deal with One Nation to try and sneak into government. I have ruled out a deal with One Nation. I need the people of this state to give our government a majority so we can get on with the job of providing services to the people of Queensland.”
