Dunno JC but I def have no time whatsoever for pommy legacy meja.
“It does not, at least not in the way you’re describing and not in the same way it’s happening in Russia.”
JC, I would agree with that, however I think the West has now lost all moral superiority and is on a trajectory of destruction and mayhem. Yes, that’s my personal opinion and perhaps I’m being a tad gloomy. I know some here will accuse me of hyperbole but I don’t think so, it’s clear the West is hurtling to disaster.
I watched what ensued in the Tennessee State Legislature a few days ago, where the three far-left Demonrats and their supporters in the gallery obstructed and debased proceedings. I was witnessing a real insurrection, when far-left radicals tried to stop a democratic legislature proceeding. What happens in the USA will happen here, it’s just a matter of time.
Watching what happened in Tennessee, I felt I was watching a third world country, actually I was watching something worse, I was reminded of what the Bolsheviks did in 1917, after the March revolution, when they caused mayhem in the Duma. And then, out of that deliberate mayhem, Lenin rose, like a demon, and the rest is history. Those Demonrats in Tennessee, our Greens, a lot in Labor, they’re all the same, no different to Lenin and his Bolshevik acolytes.
I suspect a comfortable majority of Australians suffer in silence through the endless number of welcome to/acknowledgement of country rituals they are subjected to on a daily basis. These things are inescapable. You get an email from a medium-sized company and there’s a decent chance it’s in the signature. You get an email from a large corporation or the government and it undoubtedly will be in the signature.
There is a smallish minority of people who insist on this; they police it relentlessly, ensuring their adherence to all of the latest Aboriginal Inc style guide updates regarding the precise manner in which the acknowledgement must be made in spoken and written form. They feel wonderfully righteous when administering this hollow, pointless gesture that does absolutely nothing to improve the lot of those being acknowledged upon the silent majority that inwardly groans as the tedious motions are gone through yet again.
If “vote no and you’ll never get a Welcome To Country again!” catches fire, it could potentially sink the entire endeavour. It could be a tipping point.
Funny thing is that Langton appears to have absolutely no idea of this dynamic. She no doubt thinks she kicked an incredible goal with that line, and it wouldn’t have crossed her mind that it was an own-goal.
I kind of feel sorry for her. She seems like really quite an isolated figure. She clearly doesn’t understand mainstream Australia and she certainly wants to have as little to do with it as possible. And I doubt she has much (if any) truck with her ‘mob’. Who’d want to be around that sad sack? If you weren’t already pissed off your bonce, you’d soon need to be to endure her company. I guess she fits in in the world of academia, but I imagine she would reject it as a colonial institution of oppression that has subjugated her people since first contact. No wonder she looks so unhappy all of the time.
You’re right. Reasonable people far less likely to be harassed in Moscow than London or Nashville.

Agree Cassie that events in the US have a nasty 1917 feel to them. The barricading of the Capitol for example. Didn’t the Bolsheviks surround the Duma?
The US is escalating and prolonging the conflict by funding the carnage. Regime change in Russia is what the US neo-cons and that addled POTUS want and like everything else they touch (Libya, Iraq, Iran, KSA , China/Taiwan) that project too will turn to shit and make the world a much more dangerous place for everyone but themselves.
That’s you with your fanatical Putin obsession.
Not at all, just stating facts.
More like NYT.
As Victor Davis Hanson says, the Democratic Party is no longer a political organisation, but a radical revolutionary front.
The Greens and the ALP aspire to what they see happening in the USA. Whatever it takes.
The Chinese style cultural revolution is in the US and like China in the 60s is being driven by the establishment.

I have no disagreement about what’s happening in the West. The only difference is that I’m not as gloomy. The US has a way of getting into pickles and eventually getting out.
Not in any order:
Things were far more gloomy, I thought, before Musk took over Twitter. But he did.
The house went to the GOP, and the SCOTUS is currently in safe hands after overturning that abomination, Roe vs Wade.
And don’t forget, in that example you gave, that two of those arseholes have been expelled.
The big US cities are a mess, and perhaps some of them or most of them won’t survive. That’s okay too.
My one big concern is if the GOP can get its act together and cheat as much as the Demonrats in 24. 🙂
Marcia Langtons WTC comment has brought out all the ill feeling towards such events.
Could be the single commentary that swings it for “No”.
Pretty much everyone I know resents having their noses rubbed in the “welcome to the country” shit. But till now this seems to have largely been kept private.
A clear reminder that “Yes” will put this rubbish on steroids and won’t do a thing to help anyone, least of all Aboriginals.

I saw on the news that they are launching a Vivid light show in Alice Springs to showcase the aboriginal culture. There was also a big push for tourism. I suppose they have to do something seeing as their indigenous youth culture has driven all tourists away.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this will be used to push the Voice as well.
Absolutely not.
No one listens to this imbecile except to mock her, so don’t exaggerate her influence as she has none.
Hope you’re right JC. The US had really seemed to right itself in 2016. It seemed like the constitution has worked as designed. This made the left pull every dirty trick- they went and are going lower than I thought it was possible to go. I hope the American people can defeat the enemy within.

“I kind of feel sorry for her. She seems like really quite an isolated figure.
I don’t. Langton has a long history of being vicious. A sour, embittered, nasty, vitriolic, and resentful woman, she’s spent years smearing many on the right as waaaacisssst when they dare to engage with her or dispute her. Waaaacissssm is Langton’s shtick, her currency, and she’s encouraged this shtick among her fellow urban indigenous.
Might have to join one of these. Thanks for doing the research.

Thanks dopey. The initial investigation featured both altar boys one of whom either retracted or disavowed being molested. That didn’t affect the investigation or the trial because the boy made no formal statement before he died. His parent who made this known AFAIK played no part in the trial; their evidence would have been hearsay but it would have had some probative value. From beginning to end the Pell trial was a farrago. This was part of the circus.

They weren’t just trying to admit J’s account of conversations with his dead mate as hearsay. I believe they were effectively trying to have it regarded as a second eye-witness account to corroborate J.
I know right.
A witness can be their own corroboration.
I’d rate WW1 as by far the worst disaster in human history, JC – the West never recovered and it led directly to the encore performance, which plumbed depths of human depravity that we will hopefully never see again.
Yet I can’t help but wonder if we aren’t blundering into a disaster that may put all of those above in the shade.

The living bloke made claims on behalf of the dead one, clearly to strengthen his own claims. Only problem, before he died, he was asked, IIRC by his mother, about the claims, and rejected them as false.
This is all on the public record, and was at the time of the trial.

Regarding Rupert’s moderators, I got a little insight into how it works a few years ago.
This was before the Herald-Sun went behind the paywall.
Long story but I’ll try to summarise.
A guy called Ryan Johns was jailed in 2003 for manslaughter and had two other priors for assault before appearing in court in 2009 for delivering a karate kick to a guy’s head.
The Magistrate (Duncan Reynolds) didn’t give him anything close to a decent sentence, reported as follows:-
I found a couple of sentencing remarks from Reynolds from other cases which were highly contradictory of the above and submitted them as a comment.
No bagging of the magistrate, just the series of direct quotes.
Comment rejected.
I emailed the journo asking why.
He comes back and says that the in-house lawyer says it is “sub-judice”.
I call bullshit. They are all completed cases and there can’t be a gag order because I lifted the quotes out of Herald Sun reports.
Journo goes back to lawyer again.
Lawyer says it could be seen as “contempt of court”.
Bullshit again, I say. How can it be contempt to directly quote a magistrate’s own comments?
Journo comes back and asks if I am a criminal lawyer.
I say, “Well, no. But I reckon I know more than the clown you’ve got in-house.”
He didn’t disagree.

2. They will then get you to pay rent on the property you have paid for.
3. There will be nothing that can be done about it because it will be our Constitution which elected members of Parliament can’t go against or change.

Followed by a snifter or two before bed at 11.30. Bad dreams at 12.15 and a “roiling” stomach at 12.30am. Laying in bed for an hour thinking “will I or won’t I” Followed by a groggy run to the dunny.
Then a voluminous technicolour yawn or four that manages to coat the commode and assorted seat with about 3 litres of Campbells chunky chicken and corn soup.

I mentioned a few months back about their new woke advertising campaign that seemed pitched to a demographic that would never been seen with a XXXX stubby in hand let alone a Mr Fourex sticker on their personal automobile. Seemed like a dead end to me as a long time resident of NQ.
However I note that message has lately been toned down to “give a XXXX.” Guess sales matter in the end.
It’s interesting to read the history of the Red Brigade and compare it to the Trans support mob.
The spooks should keep a very close eye on this lot. They’re already starting to target individuals – it’s a small step to planned attacks on political figures.
Pissing off most of your customers contradicts basic marketing and economics.
Most corporations have given LGPTQIYHIIFVNKGCBJJ direct access to senior management. This means that all manner of f’cking patently obscene and stupid ideas can take flight.
I bet this is the origin of this massive screw up, LGPTQI / senior management wankfest ploughs head long into the freight train of reality.

So much for maximising returns to the shareholders
Because they hired woke executives to whom abusing their positions to force normalization of this perversion on the public is a higher duty than their fiduciary one to the shareholders.
It’s not an accident, it’s not a mistake. To them at least.
What loophole was that?
These corporates actually believe their own spin. They think that 80-90% of their customers think the same way.
“Hey, nobody in the office disagrees. All our focus groups gave it the thumbs up.”
When sales take a hit, it is a real shock.
A bit like Marcia Langton drinking her own bath-water. She genuinely believes that people will be devastated if they take away “Welcome to Country”.
When she is in the corporate box at the MCG, she can’t hear them in the outer muttering, “Not more of this shit!”.
Err, my accountant is harvesting refunds, thank you very much.

The oil industry executives used to be chemical and mechanical engineers that came up through the ranks. Now they’re business or marketing degree holders with a masters in woke.
One of the great moments in football. Brilliant to watch.
Regarding the whole “Welcome to Country issue.”
I was at boarding school, in Geraldton, in 1971/72/73 with one Ernie Dingo. His boarding fees, school uniforms, textbooks, and all expenses, up to, and including pocket money were paid for by the taxpayer.
My father worked very hard to educate his sons…… why should your education be paid for, on the grounds of race?

The media was so excited about the prospect of seeing the former President in handcuffs, fingerprinted, & having a mug shot that they never thought about the possibility that this was a political stunt.
They now see that this is a waste of time & taxpayer dollars.
Lion’s volume, XXXX in particular, has been in the toilet for several years.
This collapse of sales volume preceded the recent woke ad campaign that wasn’t even about beer.
When I say their volume is down, I mean down like a skydiver who forgot his parachute.
They’re in about their 8th year or more of this plunge.

The description you’re giving here (which I agree with) still suggests that Marcia deserves pity. Jacinta is doing great, despite the odds stacked against her. Why feel sorry for her? Marcia has the unqualified backing of the Establishment as has received all of the baubles and blandishments such backing attracts. And yet she remains miserable. I do feel sorry for her.
Who would you rather be – Marcia or Jacinta? It’s not a hard choice from my perspective.
Sure, sure, the decision to arrest Varya was Putin’s. He even ordered the coffee for the cantina.

Always be wary when they’re busting out tales of some exceptional individual child who shows unwavering devotion to The Cause and suffers as a result.
I mean, this is nothing new. Entire national identities have been forged around such imagery. All I’m saying is that, when it’s invoked, it’s time to to stop and question those invoking it. Because it’s been used to justify the worst regimes we’ve ever seen.

As Sir H Appleby said about commissions of inquiry, they are like trains, you lay down the tracks and they follow them.
Same for political guidelines for the enforcers.

Funny how this comes out at Easter when no one is paying attention to Canberra.
Low-middle income earners face major pay cuts as Treasurer Jim Chalmers signals end of tax offset (8 Apr)
“More than 10 million Australians struggling with the cost of living crisis will face one of the largest tax increases in history.
According to a report from Nine papers, Treasurer Jim Chalmers will not extend the Low-Middle-Income Tax Offset (LMITO) when the federal budget is delivered in May.
This means those earning under $126,000 a year will suffer a $1,500 hit to their hip pocket and a person earning $100,000 will be $1,200 worse off.
People taking home $50,000 a year will suffer a 3.4 per cent or $29 per week cut in their after-tax income while those earning $90,000 will cop a 2.1 per cent hit.
The LMITO, which costs the budget $11 billion a year, was introduced for the 2018-2019 financial year as part of the first stage of the Turnbull government’s three-stage tax cuts.”
So low to middle income taxpayers are getting a ferocious tax rise? Funny how I didn’t notice this being mentioned by Labor in the run up to the election. Good and hard, proles, good and hard.
Christos anesti!
Happy Easter to all Cats, Kittehs, Lurkers and their families!

Sydney real estate has killed my sex drive.
I couldn’t resist commenting on this from earlier yesterday. Ex-pollies acquire an inflated image of themselves while in parliament that they are worth far more than anyone else and deserve a high position once they are back among us.
Parliament is like an expensive holiday paid by someone else so when they get back home pollies should return to their prior job or profession. Anything more I consider as corruption.
No wonder they find it hard to get a job when turfed out by the voters, who wants to give a job to someone who lied in public and looked down on everybody else?
It was a policy entirely designed and implemented by the Libs to be temporary and to expire now. Labor has not tinkered with it at all. Nice try at pinning it on Chalmers though.
More on my earlier comment about ex-pollies careers after parliament and their unemployability. What employer would want to give Lidia Thorpe a job? Or Jackie Lambie? In any capacity. The less known a politician the more likely I would employ them. Media prominence means that they are destructive to any other cause but their own.
Who exactly is in government now? They could have quietly extended it. They let it lapse, regardless of the consequences.
I suppose they’ll wait for the squeals and pleas, adjust the periwig, make a leg and strew largesse to the proles at the upcoming budget.
Yes Monty, we’ll call it a Trans tax increase.
You aren’t allowed to call it a tax increase and must pretend not to notice the big bulging tax increase.
All fixed by ideology.
One for Monty since he’s here.
Notes on the Twitter Files (21) | Power Line (8 Apr)
Rather amusing after your “gotcha” yesterday. Is that the smell of fear I detect from MSNBC?
Oh look, the pervert apologist is here, up early in the morning. Yesterday he rudely described us here as a bunch of “cranks, losers in life whose chickens are now coming home to roost electorally.” And there was more! He described us as “irrelevant“.
It is odd, though, how he likes to spend a lot of time among us “cranks and losers in life“.
“Transgender Cyclist Booted From Women’s Championship After Female Competitors Threaten Boycott”
And that’s what it will take, females need to walk away from the starting line and say….NO.
I wonder how one defines “cranks and losers in life”?
Low income? Lack of intellectual curiosity? Inability to form deep, lasting relationships with others? Addiction?
I read this blog every day because it is peopled with wise men and women from all walks of life. I find I have learnt so much, been challenged in many areas and have received countless nuggets of wisdom. Most of all, I feel as if I am part of a conversation that ebbs and flows, goes in multiple directions, occasionally derails but always entertains and often edifies.
If this is what it is to be a bunch of cranks and losers in life, it doesn’t seem all that bad. Indeed, I would be honoured to be counted as one. From proud deplorable to proud crank and loser in life just like that! Thanks, Monty!
He is risen!
The very first time a tranny showed up in womens sport the women should have walked. They only have themselves to blame. Going along with something coz of personal discomfort if you don’t doesn’t work. Expecting someone else to come to your rescue is a lack of conviction.
Happy Easter everyone.
He literally waited a year to swap competitions.
Some people, most likely cranks and losers, might have some serious reservations about what motivated the decision to slip on a sports bra.
“The very first time a tranny showed up in womens sport the women should have walked. They only have themselves to blame. Going along with something coz of personal discomfort if you don’t doesn’t work. Expecting someone else to come to your rescue is a lack of conviction.”
I don’t disagree but some young women are being compelled. Those young college girls who competed against the pervert and cheat Lia Thomas last year were threatened with expulsion and so on. They did have doubts and misgivings. Riley Gaines, physically attacked a few days ago at San Fran University by trans perverts, is now speaking up. She has spoken about how she and her team mates were gagged, threatened and coerced, they did have strong misgivings and doubts but were silenced.
Walking away at the starting gun would be more effective, news-wise.
Picture “Lia” Thomas swimming 500m on his own.
Women in sport needed to hear a few voices outside sport calling out the men in new clothes.
Incidentally it seems to me it’s just a little bit different to women wanting to join the Melbourne Club.
It’s only the shallow enders who support men in women’s swimming.
“Women in sport needed to hear a few voices outside sport calling out the men in new clothes.”
Yep.
Also, when Gaines and other young women complained about Thomas deliberately exposing his big dick in the changeroom, they were told to STFU.
Oh, kinda like a ‘voice’ then?
He is risen indeed!
I see Hassan trying to tie up Taibbi over Musk’s supposed support of censorship in India directed by Modi.
Hassan’s anti Modi stance is well known and supported by the left media and wet conservatives.
I have visited India regularly for over twenty years and have noticed the rise of the full burqa amongst young Muslim women.
This is counter to my other observation that women increasingly noticeable in all aspects of social, political and business life in India.
The Indians I’ve spoken to quietly say it’s not a good sign and they fear a repeat of the murderous chaos of partition.
You don’t have to be a fan of Modi to know that he sees the retrograde trend in the Muslim community and wants to stop it before it creates nationwide conflicts.
Interesting article in pjmedia stating that much of. the corporate promotion of the trans abomination goes back to Soros and Blackrock.
That’s because the ladeeees failed to recognise the ‘transition’ from a one-off, tokenistic ‘aren’t you a bit sweet, trying so hard with your obvious problems’ bloke in a skirt, to Lia Thomas, Hannah Mouncey and MMA blokes cage fighting girls and fracturing their skulls.
As I keeping saying, like so many Marxist assaults on the west, it is top down.

Yes it is marketing suicide so why do they do it?

Can shareholders sue for failure of fiduciary duty?
Corporate boards are full of former politicians who have friends there, particularly industry super funds. It is likely to get worse as corporations become more woke.

Two things.
One, why on earth should politicians who lose their jobs for whatever reason be given special treatment? Lots of people lose their jobs through no fault of their own. They get another job, or go on the dole. Giving politicians special treatment just widens the gulf between them and the people they are supposed to represent.
Two, a local member who has been doing his/her job properly should have built up a reservoir of goodwill in the electorate. There should be lots of people who can testify to that person’s diligence and commitment and good faith. It shouldn’t be hard for that person to get another job.
I rather suspect that the unemployed ex-politicians are refusing jobs that pay less and have less perks than they are used to.
