I think I would say to my daughters if they were to ask me this question... A shitpost is the greatest gift that you can give someone, the ultimate gift of giving and don't give it to someone lightly, that's what I would say.

I just saw an Australian Conservatives ad on the ABC. It was mindless drivel and hilariously badly dubbed for some reason, but I also thought the ABC doesn't run ads. What's going on here?

It's public access

Same way John Safran got a film clip on Rage which was just a pre-programned Casio keyboard beat over footage from a camera tied to a dog, Bernardi can blather about whatever

Except isn't Bernardi opposed to the ABC? In which case isn't running ads on it a bit of hypocrisy?

He'd have to pay for it if it was on Seven or whatever

Australian Conservatives don't really give a poo poo about anything other than vociferous, affordable culture war

Pretty much. We talk about landslide elections but the majority of people never change their vote and it's just a handful of swing voters going back and forth.

An overwhelming majority of Australians believe Barnaby Joyce should resign as leader of the Nationals with voters also punishing Malcolm Turnbull and the Government in the fallout from the love child scandal.

An exclusive Newspoll conducted for The Australian can reveal that 65 per cent of voters nationally believed that the Deputy Prime Minister should resign as leader of the Nationals, with a third of those supporting Mr Joyce also resigning immediately from Parliament.

Just because he's an idiot doesn't necessarily mean he's libertarian. Libertarians are nominally pro-gay-marriage, absent the dissolution of marriage altogether as an option. In theory.

He's just a straight-up plain old right wing nutter.

Christensen is Bernardi but with the mindset of an edgelord teenager. It's depressing that someone like him can get elected into the HoR. That's Queensland I guess :shrug:

He has internalised American facebook memes to an extent to which he no longer functions in the Australian politic and instead, has failed into whatever he know is
