https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-01-24/same-sex-marriage-survey-damaging-to-mental-health/10745800 Remember this bullshit unnecessary thing that was incredibly damaging to peoples mental health, but those concerns were dismissed by the government in a disgustingly flippant fashion? This is all I can think about when people point to the lock-downs, which are a necessity, and say "But think of the mental health of everybody!" Its still an issue of course, one that shouldn't be dismissed. But maybe there's more we can do as a country and society for the mental health of Australians than think of the economy.

Amoeba102 posted:The problem is that people will take the position that Labor hosed this up, and then shift into supporting the LNP which could only have made things worse. Like you're going to get better social support from going further right. And like you aren't going to get more lowest bidder neoliberalism stuff ups either. It's really this. All the anti-Labor stuff is mostly shady poo poo like Twitter polls being targeted by bots and that danliedpeopledied hashtag that was started by an Egyptian account or the Murdoch media running amok. Or Facebook craziness. Legitimate criticism of the Andrews government is one thing, but people deciding the LNP, much less the clownshow that is the Victorian Liberals, would somehow handle it better is insane. I know people who did that "give Dan the boot" protest and none of them could really give a response to questions of who they would rather lead the Labor party, much less have any concept of how far we are away from the next election, or how the public service that advises policy isn't elected. Thankfully these wierdos are still small in number.

As an aside, I gave blood for the first time last week*. Place was packed and appointments were sparse. I asked the nurse if its usually that busy or its just lockdown meaning people are just looking an excuse to get out. It was the latter. That's a positive at least. In my case 0+. *been meaning to for ages but had my own medical issues until recently.

gently caress I just got around to reading this. Apparently Australian special forces, at least one platoon named, had a reputation bad enough that the USMC didn't want to be a part of their missions. Compared to US and UK special forces, the Australians were noted for being unrestrained in their violence. That's not very inspiring. Is the upcoming SAS Australia TV show going to show Schapelle Corby murdering drug dealers? Seems problematic.

kirbysuperstar posted:Is there a reason you call them a friend Because I've know him for years. He's always had some wierd fringe beliefs but mostly harmless UFO and alternative spiritual stuff. He quit his retail job like 2 months into lockdown because he got on jobseeker and has spent all his time since stoned and on YouTube. He's exactly the kind of person to fall into the Q/infowars radicalisation pipeline. No past interest or engagement in politics (openly bragged about never voting), never reads the news, already involved in fringe communities online, grew up on 4chan... add that to the effects the lockdown is generating with all these protests (where people are talking about Q and NWO vaccines/microchips) and he cracked. I'm just trying to keep him sane but just talking to him is getting difficult.

Tesla is full of stuff that doesn't add up. Constant churning of managers and legal representation, numbers of sold/produced vehicles always being off, Musk lying about all the services and not being held accountable. Their declared income for years has been suspect and based off of EV credits and not their actual sales- its a car/battery company that runs off of subsidies and not what it produces. Despite all this the company is worth a huge amount somehow. https://twitter.com/StultusVox/status/1323653229658460164/photo/1 Not to mention the shady side of selling autopilot and the "beta" testing of it in the USA and how dangerous that is. If the battery works, then great. But my point about not wanting the Victorian government to do business with them stands.

Electric Wrigglies posted:Not sure about the media but it is definitely in our national interest to ensure that other countries are not freely allowed to dehumanise Australians. In the buildup to wars (or even just hardball diplomatic action) one of the common things to do is to de-humanise the people you want to fight with. Just ask Armenians about Azerbaijani, Azerbaijani about Armenians or Americans about Arabs etc. China is not tweeting out of a sense of worry about the people that out of control SAS was inflicting violent crimes on. It is tweeting to position itself for stronger diplomatic action from a position of moral superiority. Same as the US hand wringing about rights abuses in Cuba or Venezuela. Or you know, how Australians feel about Afghans, evidently.

Its shifted the media outlook and allowed a massive pivot in government messaging from somber acceptance and accountability to defiance and demanding respect for our troops.
