Seriously. Find a cheaper product or even go open source, there's no excuse for running pirated software unless you're a former cafe owner who only knows how to save money via theft

Oh hey, it's an email from Campus Review spruiking a seminar. Wonder what that's all about?quote:
Huh. This is sounding like something that's come out of America's right-wing culture, where trolls like Milo Yiannopolous or Richard Spencer go to left-wing Unis and Colleges to spew their garbage and then cry free speech is under attack when students protest. But that poo poo wouldn't happen here, would it? And do you have a link to that survey? No? quote:Speakers include: Okay, these folks sound reasonable. No IPA or SkyNews shills so far. Maybe this is going to be a proper healthy debate about free speech? quote:
Oh, I guess not then.

G-Spot Run posted:I mean, it depends, if they're proselytizing at me about my precious gift then probably not but if it's a quick swipe before going into the surgery y'know maybe someone could be that dumb. In the US the anti-abortion crowd have vans roaming the countryside pretending to be pregnancy assitance* but are designed to put pressure on women to not have abortions. That's how crazy it is. * within a very strict legal definition that lets them get away with it.

Crisis pregnancy centres in the US have guilt-tripping women out of terminating down to a fine art. They give out pamphlets on adoption, baby clothes &c, they might have a woman watch a video about how evil abortion is before they give her an ultrasound to show the baby's heartbeat and then go on about adoption and God without ever mentioning that they don't provide the service the woman came in for, or often don't even have a doctor on staff. They set up shop near actual clinics and draw in people who might be too scared of the picket line at the actual clinic to go in. The ultrasound doesn't serve a medical purpose for an early abortion other than to try and put the woman on the spot to try and guilt her out of 'taking' the life of the embryo/foetus. And they do fool people, because they target precisely the kind of people most often having trouble with accessing abortions - poor people with basic education and very little knowledge of medical mumbo-jumbo, young people, people of colour, or any/all of the above. Most abortions are done early enough in the pregnancy that RU486 can be used, and an aspiration abortion can be done in a clinic in 5-10mins without much more equipment and effort than inserting or removing an IUD. Most suggestions I've seen for adding more 'safeguards' to the process ignore that practice guidelines around terminations already include a number of safeguards and a requirement for the patient to be aware of their options, and instead seem to just want more red tape to reduce access (hint this is why clinics in the US are required to have full surgical and emergency facilities for an outpatient procedure).

Yeah we already have vast distances, inconsistent legislation and how much this country hates Indigenous people (who may not speak English well or at all and tend to avoid hospitals like the plague) without adding bs ultrasounds. Australia is plenty poo poo by itself without importing more shittiness from overseas, although it could be worth importing one of their unstable idiots to try and jolt the public into remembering what kind of people are in charge; Tony Abbott seems to have lost potency in that regard since he went full RDS and nobody cares what Peter Dutton says because apparently he is so evil that most people's minds will try to erase him. Only conclusion I could draw given how many arguments I've had about why those Vic LNP flyers were bad because it didn't explicitly mention african gangs but guess what Peter Dutton, Federal Minister for Home Affairs who runs ASIO, the AFP, Border Force and more did! But nobody seems to know this or be aware of just how much power he has, which is great for us as a nation because

Yeah a bit of the talk regarding abortion in NSW was regarding the seven-day-a-week picketing of a clinic in Sydney. Directly across the road from the clinic, which doesn't have signage, is an anti-abortion "pregnancy alternatives" service. The purpose of the location, obviously, is to trick women looking for the clinic. Picketers would attempt to intercept women, especially women who didn't know much English, and direct them to the anti-abortion place. I heard the service and the picketers had association with activists from the States

MysticalMachineGun posted:...did you read the rest of it? There is a legitimate issue with academic freedom in some Australian universities. The NTEU have been fighting to get clauses in EBAs for years to protect lecturers from being fired for criticising management decisions, or from being punished or censured for teaching things like "Taiwan isn't part of China". On the other side of the coin, the Bjorn Lomborg fiasco taught us that sometimes freedom of speech/academic freedom are used in order to promote bad science and flawed research, so it's a complicated issue. The choice of venue as well as the entry fee indicate to me that this is not going to be a complex and nuanced discussion about the real issues, and more "WHY ARE UNIVERSITIES TEACHING COMMUNISMS"

Everyone's afraid to say it but I'm not. Witchcraft is sick and wrong and children shouldn't be subjected to it. You get called a bigot for being against witchcraft but it's real and Australia should wake up to the problem before we're all wearing shawls and muttering incantations. It's okay to be worried about witchcraft.
