I think it takes a certain kind of gregariousness to actually enjoy door knocking. I really enjoy it but I'm the kind of person who strikes up conversations with randoms in the doctor's office if I get the feeling they wouldn't be disturbed by it. I totally get how it could make a person feel really uncomfortable and drained because you really have no clue whether you're about the be abused or not, and you're trying to immediately make a connection with people you have zero clue about.

Gorilla Salad posted:Threats of violence are never okay. P much, except comedy threats of violence on forums and facebook are fine and admirable imo. This is inevitably gendered, because patriarchy hates women and fascists are flamboyantly patriarchal. I don't doubt that Lambie has received more death threats and more expressions of support from 'Islamic' fascists and white supremacists recently than her compatriots like Bernardi in parliament who are crusading against Muslim Australians. Except.... I follow Australian politics and I can't name a single member of parliament more vocally Islamophobic than Lambie than the Prime Minister and his deranged backbench pal in the senate. and Bernardi doesn't hold the balance of power. The one difference is that she will have received a fuckload of rape threats and probably threats against her children. THAT is the unequivocally gendered aspect, but it's not the one she publicised. She publicised a beheading threat, because that fits the narrative. That means the release is not as gendered as MUYB is implying. Nothing Jackie Lambie says would seem less mad if she were a guy. I would expect anyone to receive death threats in the current climate if they were an independent and said the poo poo she says. She p much definitely gets a lot more hatemail than she would if she were a dude, but this idea from MUYB that it's suddenly unfunny for a toxic political figure to be a figure of ridicule when they foolishly publicise a death threat before it's investigated because of their gender is just rank paternalism masquerading as allied feminism. Women can be absolutely contemptible fuckwits worthy of scathing ridicule too, and pretending that that's not a thing that's allowed is supremely anti-feminist.

Gough Suppressant posted:So in your view Jacqui Lambie is both stupid enough to falsify her own death threat and yet too smart to have released information on a legitimate death threat rather than following proper procedure She chose to publicise the most convenient death threat. Beheading, ISIS, all that good poo poo, all in one email. Her fixation is veterans affairs and she is stuck in the ideology of the system she wants to reform. She honestly believes in the clash of civilisations. And she's been disenfranchised long enough to be radicalised against the system but still in support of it if it can finally be made to work for her. She's not smart and she doesn't think critically. I doubt her staff are much cleverer. My bet is that they received the email in question, sent it to the AFP, the AFP said 'ok we will investigate this' and they went gently caress YOU and released it themselves for publicity and idiot reasons It would not surprise me at all if this email was sent by white supremacists, because they send this poo poo out constantly trying to incite exactly this.

No, it's a legit question, MUYB. If you want me to look like a fuckwit, explain why I'm a fuckwit. Where did I say she or her people wrote the thing, rather than that they jumped on it as an opportunity for publicity? If you can't find it, pls let me know why it's illegitimate to say that she's an opportunist. And just for extra fun, pls explain why you've apparently given up on your strident feminist critique of making fun of Jackie Lambie

Gough Suppressant posted:Fruity, what did you think you were replying to when you quoted my post saying that unfounded claims of her writing it herself are loving offensive? I'm guessing you misread and thought I was referring to it being an exterior false flag thing? No, I understood that you were affronted by the notion that she invented death threats against her. I agree that she didn't need to invent death threats bc she it a target. My point is well established by now but I guess I need to do it again because the delicate and idiosyncratically useless brains of men need to be considered and accounted for. Lambie is a public figure Public figures get hatemail Lambie is a public woman figure They get more hatemail Fascist public figures who advance hate get hatemail They also get love mail from white supremacists Woman fascists get more of both When you're the most public face of a certain kind of fascism you might be more of a target for hatemail and lovemail Who do we know sends ISIS emails to public figures? Foreign ISIS freaks Domestic ISIS wannabe freaks Domestic white supremacists legit trying to incite a race war Domestic white supremacist internet trolls Foreign white supremacists trying to incite race wars I'm pretty loving sure I implied all of that in my posts itt but if you have any further questions feel free to pay me cash money for my expertise in being able to loving read.

The only reason I ended up bringing gender into it at all is because women receive more death threats than men do for the same behaviour.
