Living alongside other peoples a bitch ain’t it.
^*no shade on the muzza’s out there, love ya!^

The point of the AFL isn’t to make life hard for others who are just trying to go about their day.

You’re right, the point of the AFL isn’t the same as a protest.
The point of the protest is to stop our country’s government from aiding and abetting a genocide. Anything else pales in comparison.
Gorgritch_umie_killa@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
Yeah, i made light of it. But you’re right to bring it back to the reason this is all so beyond acceptable for Australia.
FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 2 weeks ago
*Alleged+ genocide, and blocking people from going about their day isn’t the way to go about it.
Zagorath@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
“Alleged+” is certainly an interesting way of phrasing “officially declared by the relevant independent UN commission”. That certainly is above alleged.

Ah mate, you’ve now just lost any credibility you may have thought you had.

So it’s not the outcome that’s the problem then, but rather the intention?
FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 2 weeks ago
The outcome isn’t the same though.
Gorgritch_umie_killa@aussie.zone 2 weeks ago
After reflection i suppose you’re right. The outcomes are different, one car in my way on the freeway is there to protest, the other car in my way on the freeway is there to AFL. Very different outcomes there… *
^*Maybe we should ban all cars but mine? Am I crazy, or would that solve my problem?^
I suppose totally different messages being sent though: one is, ‘i care about this thing and you’re also gona have to for a bit’; the other is, ‘i care about this thing and you’re gona need wait’. Theres a nuance there.
Sadly there is one unavoidable outcome :) MUZZA DOESN’T MAKE HIS COURT APPEARANCE!! The judge. is. ropeable…
