The Saffie* CEO should have learnt many things out of the October referendum, with the main one being that the label “racist” has lost all of it’s potency.
…
* I love how the MSM are constantly labelling him as “the Seth Effrican born CEO”.
Classic dog-whistle which is meant to convey the impression of “arrogant c-nt”. In this case the stereotype proves to be true. I want him to go on the telly and say “Diplomatic Immunity!”.
This reminds me of the school councils in the U.S. which have graphically pornographic books in their libraries, but prevent parents from reading excerpts from these books because they are so offensive!
Offensive to adult ears, but somehow considered appropriate for children.

Hamas are very good ar recasting their own butchery of Gazan civilians as IDF brutality.
If you AK47s it’s not the IDF and given Hamas’s utter disdain for human life and their all Gazan deaths are martyrdom mantra why wouldn’t they, both to win the propaganda war and to keep Gazans in line.
We’ve seen them kill Gazans trying to loot trucks and early on, multiple deaths of people trying to
flee south, on the main road through the centre.
The IDF might make mistakes, but they have no incentive to kill civilians willy nilly, in fact every reason not to, including it goes against their reason for being.

The Allan government has been slammed over a “divisive” new campaign advising Victorians to “decolonise” their book lists this Australia Day.
The opposition have called for the CEO of government agency, Respect Victoria, to resign after the taxpayer-funded organisation launched an email campaign advising Victorians on how to “decolonise” their reading list this year.
In an email titled, “Decolonise your booklist this January 26”, the family violence prevention organisation asks subscribers to commit to reading books from Indigenous authors.
“The negative implications of colonisation continue to affect all of us, and one of the best ways to challenge racism, violence and discrimination is to take in what First Nations people – women especially – are saying,” it reads.
“With listening and learning comes greater empathy, solidarity and respect.”
But Liberal MP Nick McGowan on Thursday said the campaign demonstrated “none of these qualities” and only pitted Victorians against each other.
“It is not the role of government agencies to be pitting one group of people against another. I know that in responding to this campaign, that is precisely what Respect Victoria seek, though I must,” he said.
“I cannot, in all good conscience, allow this kind of behaviour to slide.
“I call upon the acting CEO of ‘Respect Victoria’ to resign today.”
The organisation is currently led by acting CEO Serina McDuff.
Mr McGowan questioned how the taxpayer funded organisation believed Victorians should “decolonise” their booklists.
“I would like to understand how current ‘booklists’ are a threat to all First Nations peoples “safety, equality and respect..” as claimed/implied by this Respect Victoria campaign?” he said.
“We all know this is an intentional use of inflammatory words to attract attention, but in this case the language is coming from an organisation which Victorians can reasonably expect would denounce such divisive marketing ploys.”
The upper house MP questioned why Respect Victoria considered the message a priority at a time when family violence incidents are reported to be increasing.
“At a time when family violence incidents are reported to be increasing, and the Victoria Labor Government is cutting 25 per cent of the staff at Family Safety Victoria, I would like to know how Respect Victoria would consider this a priority worthy of their taxpayer funded attention?” he said.
The Victorian government has been contacted for comment.

I might go to that exhibition thanks P bit tricky to get to, but might excursion there this afternoon.
Speaking of old ladies, Hairy drives us from shopping at the Butchers and at Coles in Edgecliff to then go to the big Woollies carpark in Double Bay, specifically so he can browse around in Dan Murphy’s, which he loves to do. I’ll sit in the car and read, I say, if you’d be good enough to go up to the top floor carpark for me, as you know I get claustrophobic down in the bowels of this one. Your wish is my command, he says back to me, grinning at being given leeway to go a bit mad in Dan’s. I’d prefer that in writing I say, but he shakes his head. No deal.
He returns half an hour later with a lot of bottles (what’s Midori? he asks me re my request for my punch). Yes, Dans do stock it. You should have been there, he says to me, because there’s an old Jewish lady up there outside Woolies giving a very strong lecture to two young women sitting at a table there collecting for Medecines Sans Frontieres. What frontier are you on about? Just Gaza? she spits out at them. They don’t know what’s hit them.
There should be more of it.
Book burning!

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
Percy Bysshe Shelley.
Thanks for trying to raise the standards amongst these Philistines but a forlorn hope. Shelley’s great poem’s point is perhaps not appropriate for the Capt Cook statue’s vandalism. Shelley was writing about the egos of tyrannical rulers but also their ignorance in not appreciating how the artists who depicted them despised them and who resisted the lone and level sands of history more vigorously than the kings they wrote about.
Cook’s Two vast and trunkless legs of stone have suffered not the indignity of history quashing ego but just pure vandalism and the nihilism of the activists. I will be interested in how the judiciary deals with these bastards. Apparently the CV images are plain. If they don’t get a few years then it it will not be Cook’s statue which is a wreck but the society which did not defend itself against the vandals within which is.
No, it isn’t.
I would reference W.B. Yeats for preference.
Nope. Didn’t work for me. I still love the black stuff.
What I want to see is Byron’s Sennacherib meted out on the vandals.
I can’t think of any negative consequences of colonisation for the aborigines. I can think of loads of positive ones. A big negative of colonisation for the colonisers or their descendants is having to put up with this grifting bullshit from useless losers.
Chuggers, charity muggers.

I see your old boss has pleaded guilty to insider trading – through giving tips to pilots and employees. Such a small transgression in the scheme of Hunter, etc.
I expect many Melbournibad swampies diarise defacing the Captain Cook statue on the way home from the AO Pride Day about now each year.
Mmm…the last traditional aborigines, the Pintupi Nine, walked out of the Gibson Desert in 1984 on the basis of descriptions of the material advantages offered by western culture as described to them by relatives, particularly the abundant supply of water and food.
They literally voted with their feet.
I don’t see much traffic in the other direction.
Hunter gathering certainly keeps the pounds off.
Booze was not part of the traditional Aboriginal diet. As with anyone, they don’t have to drink it.

Indeed, and when I sing the word……. “YOUNG”.
Panic adverting alert: The idiot box is bombarding me with adverts urging me to buy crap snags from woolies to celebrate Australia Day. Still can’t help themselves though: they’ve cast the usual reject Beneton advert actor gronks.
Every Monday morning at high school with had to sing 2 verses:
When gallant Cook from Albion sail’d,
To trace wide oceans o’er,
True British courage bore him on,
Til he landed on our shore.
Funny, that.

You don’t run a ship, or a number of ships across multiple expeditions covering over 100,000 km 250 years ago over an eleven year period with shit weather (he went south of the Antarctic Circle no less than three times) and disease at every turn by being humane and kind. Not to everyone, at least.
As the Russian bloke remarked, apropos of John Wick:
‘He is a man of focus, commitment, and sheer will.’
Without those men of focus civilisation wouldn’t have existed. However – he wasn’t a roving exterminator, either.
Guaranteed he would have had faults and deficiencies like everyone else – but those ‘get shit done’ guys are the reason we enjoy the standard of living we do.
I find it impossible to reconcile that there is a statue of James Cook (or was, and there will be again) and equal honours have been extended to a woman who one kicked a football to a standard of a 14 year old boy.

Blaming the rain for that one. Just because.
I attended Endeavour High School in The Shire. Our school motto, like Cook’s, was ‘Honour Bound.’ I doubt that it would resonate with young people today – indeed, most of them wouldn’t know what any of it means.
Saw a few cars and tradie vehicles flying Australian flags today, and based on previous experience, there will be a lot more tomorrow. Unlike decadent councils elsewhere, our council is hosting an all day event celebrating the event. There is a day of multi-culti stalls and performances and a later, a rock band in the park, a citizenship ceremony, and a fireworks display in the evening.
Queanbeyan has every type of ethnic group, but apart from Skips, none are dominant. The local Aborigines are kept in check by a hefty contingent of Islanders, who don’t buy into their ‘poor me’ shit, let alone that they really own all the land. Amazing how they pull their heads in when nobody buys into the narrative and large, imposing individuals reinforce the fact.

I never said Cook wasn’t a disciplinarian. Cook was a disciplinarian but unlike many of his contemporaries he was considered fair plus he wasn’t reckless with his crew’s lives, which is why men wanted to sail with him.

The leftist and Muslim cockroaches who screeched kill da jooze and gas da jooze that night were provided with a personal NSWaffen Police escort all the way down to the Opera House, and then stood back whilst the cockroaches screeched ‘kill da jooze, gas da jooze’.
Nobody is yet to be charged from that night. Now just imagine if that had been a group of white right-wing people screeching ‘kill da Muslims”. Who reckons that, three months later, we’d be still waiting for someone to be charged?

Remember how the Challenger II’s armour was supposed to be made from some indestructible proprietary alloy? Um no.

I’m not sure of the constitutional implications, but Texas was a separate country when it joined the Union. In terms of border enforcement, it may be that Texas has residual rights not shared by other border States. I’m guessing that this is behind a lot of the unilateral actions by Texas – they are prepared to go to SCOTUS and argue that their joining the Union did not wash away every single aspect of their previous status. It was not unconditional.
We shall see.

Though it was puzzling to receive unsolicited & unexpected emails from other Cats, saying they’d been supplied my email address by Sinclair Davidson.
Each time contact was made with me, I’d immediately change to a new email address.
Thus any unsolicited contact would, by the email address used, unwittingly reveal if they’d obtained my email from another commenter, or from Catallaxy itself.
Once you realise that each contact is from a “virgin” email address used only to comment at Catallaxy, it becomes quite tempting – via adroit use of email addresses & domain names – to game the unsolicited responses.
I’m not saying Sinclair Davidson used to supply commenters emails without knowledge of that commenter, however I’ve yet to arrive at how email addresses never supplied to another & used only to comment at Catallaxy, came to be in the hands of regular Catallaxians.
Larry Gomes has relation to the Trinidad Portuguese. Great player back in the West Indies hey day.

Don’t be an Abbott Dutton. Stick with this star.
I can read Rabz’ mind. That’s because it’s pretty close to mine. We are both severely pissed off with the imbecility of our political class.
The main difference between Rabz and me is that he wants their Heads on Pikes, and I want the bastards hanging from lampposts.

Lefties are weird, they are terrified that CO2 might hurt people they want to exterminate.
The tax cut announced today are a bit of a disappointment.
The initial tax cuts would have bought 98% of the population to a tax rate close to the company tax rate with the ability for 2 adults in the family to keep $400k themselves.
No other companies and the complexities of keeping your money would have been cleared.
Accountants fees would be slashed.
People would have more money in their pockets for a buffer or savings.
The ATO $590 million extra the ato received to audit every business would prove ineffectual by over 50%.
The simplest ideas are the best.

a) Removed stock from inventory – coz unsaleable
b) Pulled stock from shelves on advice of indigenous advisors – coz offensive to advisors
c) Stock items deleted from inventory – coz inner circle of tin-eared ponytailed marketing & social experts (all aged 25 or lower) say nobody they know even gives a shit about Australia Day anymore & there will be lots of positive gushing publicity from j’ismists & commentators.
Which is it?
No way it is (a).
But I’m prepared to compromise.
Of course.
The foolishness of appointing an “advisory” board which effectively issues binding rulings.
My theory is that Woollies agreed to a raft of demands from Goodes, including the Yes case for da Voice, and joining the “change to date” push.
They backed off on use of their stores in da Voice campaign after an initial backlash when they tried to force Dan Murphy’s staff to wear Yes campaign slogans.
Which makes the Australia Day thing seem a very strange doubling down … until you realise that it had already been promised to Goodes.
No doubt Banduci was hoping this would slide through un-noticed.
He is learning the downside of throwing his lot in with a race-baiter like Goodes.
Dr BG, toss for it.

Soros DA’s lead workshops on how to prosecute police for doing their job.
The Big Lie of the January 6 “insurrection” is falling apart before our eyes.
No (I was looking for the ‘double teapot), but the body language wasn’t great until the GOAT trapped one of the West Indies dudes, which coincided with the new pill being taken almost straight afterwards.
The new pink ball’s fanging around like Bob Irwin at the Australian Consulate.
I still remember watching that. Something was obviously going on near the boundary with The Grub pointing out someone in the crowd. Security turned up and started summoning the person out of the crowd, but telling everyone else to stay where they were. The camera zoomed in and I remember saying, “Shit! She’s just a kid”.
The disgrace was that no-one in the media apart from Blot thought dragging a kid off alone was in any way wrong. Unfortunately I don’t think the adult with her thought quickly enough to tell security to fck off.
Call the cops if you want to make an arrest.
The worst.
I wonder what other little time-bombs he has planted into Woollies. A nepotistic First Nations employment plan perhaps?
Get back to me about that, Cass, after the next feral erection results …
Hand out the sweets.

Oh Cmon McMahon.
I would have thought Irwin Minor would be keener for Ken than Barbie.
Talking heads talk all kinds of crap on TV, state or otherwise. I consider the-then soon-to-be UK PM enthusing over her readiness to “push the button” a vastly greater transgression. That actually means something.
When the Windies were five-fer not many I was kind of hoping Cryon De Telli and Usman the Terrorist would be in about now.
A magnificent Cocteau Twins cover …
The original
I distinctly remember a couple of years back watching a swarthy ‘security guard’ attempt to go onto the ground to intervene in a scuffle between two players close to the boundary line. A runner from one of the team had to drag the guard back over the line and out of the field of play.
Why $1.50 an hour security guards with no knowledge of the game, or of what they can and cannot do are allowed anywhere or near anything.
On an upside, the security bloke didn’t short change me on fuel.
Kid reckons he’s in with a shot. Okay, well, it might get him her attention, but then he’ll have to bring the steel. Pace whatever stupid message about relations between the sexes one might take away from the Barbie movie, women ultimately despise white knights, Nice Guys and simps.
If that is true then Woolies board of directors know what to do, sack the Indigenous Advisory Board as its actions have caused losses to the shareholders, the real owners of Woolworths.
So a half Scottish race grifter and a Saffie grocer have decided in a closed meeting that Australia Day is not acceptable….
I hope that tonight some of those “Nice Flag, Wanker” types with their God-save-the-Queen/Waltzing-Matilda colonizer cultural attitude drive their chrome-exhaust & Aussie flag mudflaps drive to Fitzroy Gardens & hold an all-night tailgate party.
For if we rely on the cops alone, Captain Cook’s cottage won’t be presentable by daylight.
Hey, Madge Robbie!
I’d like a me thinking of you, thinking of me, thinking of you, thinking of me, thinking of you, type love … 😕
Yep.
Goodes badgered the moron security guard into it. If the parent or guardian had disputed it and threatened the Petrol Thief with legal action he would have had to call for reinforcements. Any cop who was half awake during training would have known detaining and questioning a 13 year old without a guardian or legal representative present was illegal.
Utterly despicable man.
Yes.
The worst.
No, the worst were those who jumped on Goodes’ bandwagon, the then Gillard government, the scrubber who was our PM at the time, the scum at their ABC, at Fairfax, at Nine, Seven and Ten etc, who all pointed the finger at the girl, who all held forth, who all preached, who all pontificated and who all dribbled ‘outrage’ about how a young girl had been…….”waaaaaaaacist”. It was a pile on, one of the first. Only a few media commentators spoke up for the young girl, people such as Miranda Devine and Devine copped a lot of opprobrium for it. Thinking back, it was one of the first “cancellations”….and Australia led the way, similar later happened to Nick Sandmann.
Kid’s pretending to be straight.
How does it feel like …
to let forever be … 😕
Call out the militia.
All ex soldiers, parade in front of the post office. Consider yourselves recalled to duty, on full pay. You’ll be issued rifles, and given refresher training…
When the soys who cut Captain Cook off at the ankles are caught, they need to be allowed to escape near where lots of mullet hairstyled blonde surfy types with AC/DC tatts.
They may need to be told that the escapees are the ones who “shat on Captain Cook”
That way they’ll be actual punishment.
If it is left to Hulls/Andrews’ limp-wristed Magistrates the culprits will be fined $1 & no conviction recorded.
When the Americans rolled into Baghdad there was some guy on the street in a turban that got airtime with a spiel which was effectively: “George Bush! USA! Sexy whisky time! USA!”.
Probably a CIA plant but still, the enthusiasm was there.
I, I long to be beside of you
I was wrong to tell you what was true
I know I’m a victim of my pride
I belong to all that I’ve been through …
I came for miles on a broken wheel
I came to see whether love can heal
But I won’t kneel, no, I won’t kneel …
Sod moderation – something not even addressed until conversations have moved on for hours.

How frickin’ (avoiding saying ‘f*cking’) dare you put up such ludicrous nonsense.
Seriously folks, look at the scientific ‘rigour’ behind this.
I have to think your brain is broken, that you spend all your waking hours trawling the inertubes looking for anything the headlines of which agrees with with what you belive Cats think, and you post it as reflexively as scratching an itch rather than assayingthe truth of a point. You show absolutely no discrimination between the dodgy and the extremely dodgy. I know you understand less than 1% of what you post because if you understood even that much you would not post anything so nonsensical.
It is like you are desperate for friends and you have settled upon this explosive diorrhea of inane links as a way of ingratiating yourself with the cool kids.
For the love of God…just stop!
I promise I will honour you more for your absense than your copious gullibility.
Well, I won’t actaully honour you, but I will stop using your screen name in jokes that begin “So there was this bloke, Indolent, who stuck corn stalks up his arras because it was mentioned on Breitbart, and who…”
Oh, and the silly linked article.
Just buy him a coffee.
Or ask him about the link he put up abut Disney execs being handcuffed for child-related sexual matters and laughing in the cops’ faces as they did so, telling them they’d all be freed within the hour.
And about how the site he linked to mentioned three times, at the start, beginning and end, that it was a satire site.
His behaviour mirrors good old rsrssrrss – ‘too many tabs, not enough sleep’ or ‘Army Tanks on the streets’ (a Landrover) Annie.
Immense fun, and immense sookage when you do exactly what you just did – call his Radio Rental rants what they are.
Perhaps you need to read her book. It’s an absolute miracle she can stand upright after the childhood she endured. Abuse is too kind a word for it, she was tortured and terrorised. If food feeds the demons or the added kilos make her feel safe, well, good for her.
Read it. Get back to me when you can coherently explain exactly what you would have done with an adult like Demir as a parent. She has suffered enough for several lifetimes. Her size is none of your damned business.
As evidenced by the fact that the sensational click-bait headline is usually contradicted in the second or third paragraph of the linked article.
It does no service to people who want to raise rational and supportable concerns about vaccines and other things Covid related.
Buy me a cup of coffee.
For the record:
The Daily Expose’s website address is actually a mechanic’s shop in regional Britain.
Glad I kicked off a bit of a discussion, thanks Cohen et al for longer considerations. Of course no single piece of art can have only one interpretation, even an individual’s interpretation can change over time, and be multifaceted as well.
Mine is this-
If we deliberately belittle our achievements, denigrate our inheritance, denigrate our ancestors, overthrow Australia for Sorry Serfdom, replace marriage with rainbow sex miasma, dissolve families replace enterprise with corporations, spurn history for tabloid scandal, ghettoise humans for their genetic code-
ie, let evil imbeciles cut down our poppies for spite-
-we will make a wasteland.

Remdesivir and Midazolam wrecked havoc along with ventilators with death.
Go watch a TV show.
The surveys and accompanying arithmetic are breathtakingly sciency.
Economists say that if you spend more you fuel inflation, economics say that if you have a $500,000.00 mortgage you pay the banks an extra $14,000.00 a year, Tourism says come to Australia and spend your money to benefit our Economy, It’s all bullshit!! Inflation is from the cost of energy, The Global warming bulltish, stop drilling for gas and oil and do not mine coal and do not Dam rivers, it’s very frustrating, Happy Australia Day tomorrow, the true day!!

I suspect you have to the wrong address and being goaded into believing it’s correct. The Abbott imbroglio back in 2013 suggests otherwise.
A brief calculation shows that if the space between stars in a galaxy has something like a 1.5 kgm brick in a cube of 1,000 km on a side, on average, then this would account for the missing mass that is needed to explain the observed rotation rate of galaxies. There is no need for exotic matter or the various weird hypotheses of cosmologists.
This also solves the Fermi paradox. The reason the aliens aren’t here is that they set off to get here, and hit a brick on the way. At some significant fraction of the speed of light, this would be like nuking the spaceship.
Or more likely they found out about the density of random bricks and decided going was a bad idea so didn’t bother.
Do you happen to have an English version of this laying around, Tickler?
