Yes, this point shits me up the wall. As soon as the slightest hint of terrorism or the South African white farmers come up, the government is instantly scrambling for solutions. However women are still being hurt and killed in domestic violence instances and the government either ignores it or have their right wing nut jobs going "bbbbbut what about the men being abused?"

quote:

The electronic billboard, which was unveiled on Wednesday afternoon, references the opening line from Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice, which Dr Davies controversially quoted in a school publication in 2014.

“Men of Trinity, all in possession of a good fortune – a Trinity education – should heed the opening words of Jane Austen in Pride and Prejudice," the billboard reads.

"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife."

These direct quotes from Dr Davies were published in the Trinity Grammarian, reportedly offending parents and students who identified as LGBTI.

The billboard then flashes to: "Our school is far too progressive and inclusive for your 18th century views".

The billboard on the back of the black truck screams "Trinity Councillors GET OUT NOW!" and includes images of the remaining six councillors with red crosses across their faces.

Israel is the product of mass immigration. It is currently in a state of intractable social crisis. Not sure how any of this is controversial.

Here's another one: South Africa.

South Africa wasn't a country until white people bordered it though, so technically the blacks are the immigrants.

I'm not saying it would be better or worse. Ffs everything collapses down to a moral judgment for you doesn't it? Looking at the consequences of geopolitical events is completely subordinate to taking a personal moral stand on it.

I'm not saying Israel could have been somehow avoided with more morons like Peter Dutton. I'm simply saying that mass immigration leads to social disruption and there is clear evidence of it. Pretending like there aren't consequences is straight up irresponsible.

Amazing how clueless people are to the good things that Dandrews has done in one term compared to the "do nothing" Bailieu/Naptime Government.

- Royal Commission in Domestic Violence
- Removal of level crossings
- Legalising euthanasia
- Medical marijaruna
- Melbourne Metro Tunnel
- Lowered the crime rate

Yes, he isn't perfect (Westgate Tunnel being a big one), but gently caress me it is amazing how the conservatives forget how bad the last state Liberal Government was.

Look the only humane way to solve the white refugee crisis in South Afrika is to disrupt the people smuggler's business model. Also does this count as a an Amethyst melt down? It's been a while and I forget what the gold standard was.

P.S. Arguing against open borders by citing Israel is loving hilarious.

And yet no one here has mustered an argument against the notion. If you can't bring yourself to put the slightest effort into defense of the manifestly absurd idea of near-future open border immigration it may be a sign that you don't actually believe in it.

The difference is when you build stuff it takes years and money. When you're running government as a giant money laundering machine you don't need to build poo poo, just remove taxes and protections.
