The most dangerous political thing they can do is stop people spending money overseas to avoid getting ripped off here. I'm guessing this is going to be a huge issue.

Anidav posted:Online retail giant Amazon will block Australian consumers from its global sites to counter new laws to force it to collect the good and services tax on transactions. Wow I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand we have a global megacorp which is calling the Government’s bluff by saying whatever value our markets have to its overseas subsidiaries is less than the cost of collecting sales tax so F U Australia and potentially forcing the Government (or next one) into compromise, on the other we have an ostensibly free trade and liberalization focused govt who has just screwed Australian consumers by a policy that blocks one of the largest global retailers from competing locally. Either way I hope the LNP takes a massive hit. Stupid approach that has backfired in a way I bet they haven’t understood yet.

Well presumably AU amazon will continue expanding, I wonder if they would have done this if they didn’t already have a growing domestic presence. But Amazon also owns a lot of other online retailers like Book Depository so there may be a lot of things that suddenly become unavailable. Can’t wait to see the consumer rage!

G-Spot Run posted:Paywalled. My bad, forgot about the paywall because I Googled it myself. Adam Bandt apologies for removed ‘Nazi’ post Greens MP Adam Bandt has apologised “for any offence caused” after removing Nazi-sympathiser imagery of a Jewish banker from a post on his Facebook page, amid outrage from members of the Jewish community. The post, urging Labor to block Malcolm Turnbull’s “tax cuts for millionaires” and featuring a hook-nosed caricature of a Jewish banker similar to images notoriously published in Nazi-sympathiser newspaper Der Sturmer during the Holocaust, appeared on Mr Bandt’s Facebook page yesterday. It was taken down without explanation this morning. After being contacted by The Australian, a spokesman for Mr Bandt said the “clip-art image” was intended to portray a top-hatted millionaire benefiting from the tax cuts. “Many cartoonists often use top hats to portray rich people,” the spokesman said. “However, some people have been offended by this particular image so we have taken it down. “We sincerely apologise for any offence caused.” Labor historian and Melbourne Jewish community member Nick Dyrenfurth tweeted at Mr Bandt, “When you criticise Turnbull’s tax cuts for millionaires don’t use Der Sturmer-style imagery of a Jewish banker. Deleting it today isn’t good enough. You should apologise.” Anti-Defamation Commission chairman Dvir Abramovich said he had been contacted by people who were deeply distressed and offended by the post. “In the minds of some, this image, showing a man with an exaggerated nose, linked with bags of money, evokes classic anti-Semitic themes and reinforces stereotypes about Jews as greedy and manipulative,” Dr Abramovich said. “We should remember that similar caricatures were popularised in Germany during the Nazi era, especially in the virulently anti-Semitic magazine Der Sturmer. “At a time when anti-Semitism is on the rise and is being normalised, we all have special responsibility to avoid promoting, albeit inadvertently, anything which may come across as aiding age-old hateful views of Jews. “We sincerely doubt Adam Bandt intentionally sought to engage in any hurtful conduct, and we are glad that he has taken down the post.”

I will be honest - now that I've seen the image in question, it wouldn't have occurred to me that it had any Jewish signifiers. To me, it shows "Old evil rich person" and looks more like a pig than anything racial. I'm guessing that's the problem - similar caricatures may have been used in Nazi propaganda, but I haven't seen a lot of Nazi propaganda to draw any such parallel, and I'm guessing that whoever made this hasn't either.
