Maybe the founder of the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre learned to communicate in ancient times when people used words to express their thoughts and feelings, rather than to broadcast ‘takes’ which every ignorant poo poo then rushes to declare a ‘good take’ or ‘bad take’ to demonstrate how fiercely cynical/woke/whatever they are about every loving thing.

Maybe he even began his sentence with the phrase “In a way...” as if to make it clear that he’s just making a point, exploring an idea, as opposed to definitively stating a deeply considered intellectual position.

Is this a good take or a bad take, jesus christ I hope it’s a good one, I wouldn’t want anyone to seethingly despise me for five minutes before their attention flits to something else and they forget I even exist.

this is a good take

Thanks heaps. To be honest it's not as out of touch an analysis as I would expect. Accept, of course for this important truth:

Don Dongington posted:

THE *CLAP* RIGHT *CLAP* WING *CLAP* AREN'T *CLAP* ANYONE'S *CLAP* BASE.

Abbott won an election based on extreme vaguery and obfuscation on most issues. He had "stop the boats", but in all other areas he promised labour policy without the dysfunction, and also cheaper (think how they campaigned on matching labours commitment to gonski, before dumping it immediately after winning). The last election they played their ideology even closer to their chests, basically campaigning on nothing but personality and individual tax cuts. People do not want the American style hardcore free market social darwinism that the IPA wants the LNP to openly embrace. Saying it out loud would destroy them. Their only winning strategy is race baiting and trivial culture warring, while slowly destroying the effectiveness of government through more and more tax cuts over time. We are extremely lucky they are now too insulated to recognize their own extremism, having spent so long huffing their own farts they can't understand that most people prefer fresh air.

Remember when Abbott became party leader because Turnbull stood up and ran at the last second, splitting the vote between him and Hockey? Looks like Bishop's about to follow in those glorious footsteps.
