It’s her godmother, so the main character’s last name is not sense. But if you call your godmother both ‘Aunt’ and by their last name, there’s something wrong with you.

edit: the small hispanic/black girl has all the same cultural indicators of a middle aged white man. she never uses loan words or phrases, calls for godmother "aunt last name" instead of "mom" or "titi" or any of the other dozens of honorifics reserved for godmothers. i've never seen a culture that calls a godmother "aunt". "aunt" is reserved for female friends of the family the same age as your mom

It's conceivable that Carmen's godmother is also literally her aunt. There's nothing that stops someone from being both; my godfather is one of my uncles, for instance. If the aunt is on Carmen's father's side and unmarried, it wouldn't even be that weird for them to share a last name even if we're dealing with a traditionalist group where it's assumed the woman will take the man's last name. Of course, nobody would ever actually call an aunt by that name. And this is probably not the actual explanation, because that would be giving Prickly City too much credit.

Not a problem, sir


Who the gently caress gives a poo poo about Franking Credits? Fuckwits brain is stuck on the 2019 election...

For non Aussies- one election saw Labor announce changes to certain tax breaks if they won the next election. One thing that was tabled was Franking Credits, which immediately led to the LNP running scare campaigns of 'Labor is gonna steal all your money, you EARNED those credits'.

Labor lost, and while theres nothing suggesting it was just from this scare campaign, within a week I was hearing from mates who work for Centrelink that they received several calls, from older Australians, demanding their Franking credits. Said mates didn't follow the election that close and had no loving idea what they were talking about.


I also have no idea what they are, honestly. Something to do with a tax return for investments, if the company already paid tax for the profits... point is, it wasn't that common, but the Libs went hard making it seem like this was taking money from all Australians, instead of mostly the rich with large investment portfolios. ie. their donors and voting base



Negative gearing can also gently caress off at this point- it was a mechanism to give tax breaks to families that bought an investment property, and instantly became the tool for the rich to buy 20 homes and not pay any tax, which is a part cause of our housing crisis atm.

My first response to this was "what the actual gently caress" so I looked up the Indigenous Coalition for Israel.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indigenous_Coalition_for_Israel

The coalition does not speak for any government, so it's not an "embassy" in the meaningful sense. It was founded by a Christian Zionist from New Zealand, Alfred Ngaro, and academic Sheree Trotter. Its purpose in Israel is "educational and cultural initiatives" which I interpret as "pro-genocide public relations project".

It's an interesting fact that the Democratic Party was historically linked to both white supremacy and immigrant advocacy, but it's disingenuous to claim that these were necessarily the same Democrats, especially since many of those in the former camp were explicitly Protestant supremacists as well, which played a huge role in the second KKK.

But I don't think that's even what he's doing here? It's just a tortuous link between bad things the Democrats did in the past, and bad things they are doing today. Deeper cut than the usual right-wing fare, but it doesn't actually make sense when you analyze it.

Also even if what he was claiming was true, so what?

The Brythonic peoples are probably indigenous to Britain, but it's still racist when the BNP goes on about "indigenous Britons" and bombs immigration centers. It's racist when the so-called indigenous French and Germans claim to have been 'colonized' by Muslims or Turks. You don't get to act like a dick just because your genetic line has been somewhere for a while.

Kirschen has New World brain where 'indigenous' means 'unfairly oppressed by colonists' and takes that to 'therefore can do what I want.'
