OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[Avenger]

Well you just repeated what people we met up with in NYC and Paris said when I was there. Young professionals from UK want to move here because its way more affordable than home. It’s global.

And who do you think has a better chance of improving our situation seeing there has been a changing of the guard in the US? Albo and Penny Wong?

 

[JokerEel]

Nothing. Its an insult that he throws around when he is out of his depth intellectually, which he very much was in his discussion with Bandwagon.

He tried it on me once and I had to point out that I nearly always vote LNP.

Oof answering Suities question for me.

Just to get your dick out.. well done.

Out of my depth intellectually in a chat about politics yeah ok

Funny how Suilty didn't question the Bandwagons attempt to call me drunk though or you.. Kinda proves enough really.

 

[Avenger]

May I ask what is so wrong with having certain leftist views?
Is it just because it doesn't align with your opinions?
It's actually ok to have different opinions.

Basically it's because you're a well meaning leftist idiot. Your lot dream of a fairer world, but without understanding how the economy actually works, your ideas often backfire. Good intentions don’t pay bills, and idealistic policies can end up hurting the very people you're trying to help.

This is why the very people you support have f**ked it up again, and it’s the main reason Albo is shaping up to be a one-term failure. On top of that, he’s a masterful bullshitter, lying as much as, if not more than the average politician regardless of the party he represents. I put him him on par with Morrison, who was also a fool. And don’t even get me started on Penny Wong—her representing our country is enough to make every Australian sick to their stomach.

It's funny (for me) watching people criticize someone on the other side of politics, for nothing other than being on the other side.

It's quite hypocritical and some on the left do the same.

Whilst your post starts with throwing insults and then generalizes a lot, it says nothing other than you don't support the left and you have not provided any facts or sources.

Mind you, you're not the only one who does this, Delboy could give you a run for your money as well.

You want me me to post some graphs? Maybe some right wing leaning ideology from a google search? No Twiz, my life experience tells me that Labor with the exception of Hawke and a sprinkling of Keating have basically been a monumental f**k up.

Vote 1 Liberal.

yeah, I get that, I got that the first time you posted anything political.

The point I was making, or trying to make, is that you don't say anything when debating politics other than generalizations which don't really mean anything, or say anything..

You say shit and then when you get cornered you pull out a blanket “lefty, snowflake, broflake, cherry on the woke cake” response. It’s boring.

If you discuss the issues on their merits, you won’t be accused of being drunk.

There’s good and bad in both camps, but Dutto is an appalling choice.

Some good Labor policies have included the NDIS, re-establishing trade links with China, maintaining Medicare, The voice was a good idea but poorly managed. More recently a better balance on the Israelpalestine conflict ( two wrongs don’t make a right).

John Howard helped me buy a house, he liberated East Timor, he fought extremist and damaging wokeism. He brought the people smugglers under control.

Dutton is testing me on that proposition.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

Dutton is testing me on that proposition.

He’s a muppet. They need to dump him.

He could try to ride on Trumpism but he’s simply not up to it.

Trumpy is nothing short of the most radical revolutionary in US history. Dutton is a whinging popularist.

The more he goes after Albo, the stronger Albo will get, so long as he stays quiet and refrains from speaking and embarrassing himself.

Albo is a bit of a flog,but he’s better than Dutto

The merkin has no eyebrows and is bald. He looks like a boiled egg.
Albo looks like a man who's balls have been sucked back into his stomach and vacuum sealed.
Don't like either.


Howard was great. A little terrier


America best two options over the last 8yrs have been Trump who is out of control and Biden/Kamala. Also terrible.

I do know that, but the Happy Clappers are of the belief that once God has provided all the lands promised to the jews for Israel, they will convert to Christianity.

‘You know, it’s over’: Trump floats plan to ‘just clean out’ Gaza

Donald Trump told reporters he wants Jordan, Egypt and other Arab nations to take in “probably a million and a half” Palestinians from the war-torn strip.

www.smh.com.au

Step 1) "Clean Out Gaza"
Step 2) Give all lands back to Israel
Step 3) Claim one’s self as the 2nd coming for fulfilling gods prophecy
Step 4) Stop funding Israel until they convert.

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Then you have the Greenland thing.

If America invades Greenland, Denmark must respond. As this is an attack on a NATO member, the rest of the NATO nations must respond.

Trump will see this as a trigger to pull out of NATO.

All the while, Putin is eyeing off the Ukraine and NATO forces are split.

The last time America backed out of something in Europe, Russia annexed Crimea

Trumpism is very interesting.

A genuine shake up in the world order.

Good for some, bad for others.

The last time America backed out of something in Europe, Russia annexed Crimea

They invaded Serbia, carved out a province, and established a crime-ridden entity, Kosovo, which now hosts the largest U.S. army base in Europe and is being exploited for its natural resources—all under the pretence of securing freedom for Albanian illegal immigrants with the assistance of a terrorist organisation called the KLA. Additionally, they bombed the Serbian capital (Belgrade ) for 78 days to force compliance, carrying out the operation unlawfully under NATO.

Politics often boils down to a series of generalisations that we, as democratic voters, consume. In the end, it usually comes down to who you think is the better person for the job.

Indeed.
And that's how I vote.
Don't ever again assume that I always vote left.

Except when it comes to Dutton.

Anyone can think he’s better, but he’s actually not.

Yeah agree. I dislike the guy.

Nah I don’t think most voters vote on who would do a better job, I think more vote on how is this going to benefit me.
