I had a chat with Zoe's chief of staff while the votes were being counted.

Doubtful that Ms Daniels will run again after all the effn horrible things put against her by lil Timmy and his bunch of merry right winger nutjob zionists.

People who had Zoe Daniel signs in their yard had very nasty notes put in their letter boxes by Zionists basically accusing them of being nazis. There is nothing that RWNJ from the Mont Pelerin Society wouldn't do to get his seat back. I say "his" seat because he considers it to be his property, not the property of the voters. He is also a really useless local member, I know, I live in Goldstein.

Quote from jayfox on the draft thread (dunno how to quote across threads sorry):

"I promise I don't want a back and forth but banning a site because you don't agree with its ownership, when that site is used to provide meaningful info on the issues being discussed here, is an over reaction for mine.

Speaking of being political, could we make this a democracy and have a poll of members to decide if ***** links should be banned? Then no-one can complain as you've had a chance to vote."

First, how far do you take this position on disregarding ownership? if there are two burger joints in town, one is owned by a nazi, which one do you go to? This is about where your personal line is, and thats fine, but be clear about that. You say 'over reaction for mine'. 'For mine' is the key phrase, for me, its not an over reaction. Anything that represents a rejection of the oligarchs who are doing their best to destroy culture, society and the planet is fine with me.

On the vote thing, thats just silly. Imagine if PRE had a vote on everything there is some disagreement on? The site owner and admins never state anywhere that this is a democracy, its a benevolent (hopefully) dictatorship. At times that might be annoying for individuals, but overall it works fine, we vote with our feet.

And besides, does it really make much difference to anything? If no X has altered my enjoyment of PRE, I have'nt noticed.

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised either. but hopefully over time she changes her mind... or another Teal canidate takes her spot.

Yeah. I spoke to two people who received the b/s letter, and both were shaken up, to differing degrees, by it.

They kicked south african nazi's door in at 0400 and dragged him by the ear to villawood detention centre.

Me thinks his POV wont make him too many friends in there, and i think he'll struggle to find any allies who look or think like him.

His deportation has bipartisan support.

His nazi mates go funded $20k to appeal

But tony burke said 'being a ministerial decision, he has very limited avenues to appeal', barely suppressing a grin.

Very proud Australian today. Nazis are a man down and $20K lighter.

Just watched Inglorius Basterds the first time a couple of days ago. Brad Pitt was in good form and would have approved this move too.

Albo in Bunbury today lone bloke showed his dislike of Albo & his lot when suddenly a plod grabs him by the scruff of the necks & carts him off. So much for freedom of expression here in Oz. Ok if you are a Albo lover but if not keep ya gob shut.

I wonder if there were any consequences for the rest of them? I heard it implied a few of their employers were reviewing their situation.

You can't tolerate the intolerant.

You can't tolerate the intolerant.

Or the Dutch.

Why not? He’s proud and public with his beliefs

 

[RoarEmotion]

To make a more serious point because I don’t endorse carving swastikas in people’s heads.

Here is a podcast about someone who has paved the way for ~200 neo nazis to change their minds.

There are plenty of lessons here for all of us.

As further evidence of how morally bankrupt the US administration has become have a look at the disgusting attack by Trump on the ABC (US) journalist who questioned the Saudi prince Salman about the murder of Jamal Khashoggi and his defence of a murderer.

It turns my stomach.

Is that the female journalist that he referred to as ‘piggy’ or was it another journalist that Dump admonished for ‘embarrassing’ his murderous psychopathic guest? He’s the one that gave drumpfs son in law 2 billion to ‘invest’ wasn’t he?
