- Comment on Is it just me or the food shows like Man v Food or Everything on The Menu or hot dog eating contests annoy anyone else knowing the fact people are starving in the states and world wide? 2 days ago:
Also not true, people are starving largely due to logistics.
Moving a lot of food costs a lot of money and when you’re already giving it away for free the cost of transportation is ruinous.
No farmer wants to let the food they produce rot but none of them can afford to send it where it’s needed most.
- Comment on What if you were in traffic but figured out a way that everyone would want you to get in front of them 6 days ago:
While the pillion should know better it’s the riders choice to have them on the bike. I would hand over my own gear before putting someone else at risk like that.

The sheer disregard for the pillions safety speaks volumes about that motorcyclist.

Some people are genuinely so ugly that this doesn’t even begin to solve the problem.
Like it helps them not look homeless, and it helps if they don’t smell, but some people really do just lose out on looks.
- Comment on Mapping Australia by the Nearest City with a Population of 100,000 or More 4 weeks ago:
People often ask why house prices are so high when we have so much space?
Then you realise how insanely clustered our population is with something like the visual representation here.
- Comment on Petition: Australian writer sentenced to death in China 4 weeks ago:
I don’t see how a petition will sway the Chinese government. They’re not known for respecting anyone that isn’t Han Chinese and a party member.
- Comment on Albanese invites Arab 'hypermarket' to compete with Coles and Woolworths 4 weeks ago:
Chocolate was a good measure of Colesworths greed, at Aldi a block of milk chocolate was $3.40 and at Woolworths it was $10, at Coles it was $8.90.

- Comment on Why fascism? 1 month ago:
Many people fail to grasp this, fascism is the mutual merger of state and corporate power.
Both work to enhance the control the other exerts in specific areas, such as corporate capture of regulatory bodies, and state capture of media.
Fearful idiots are easily duped by the state and media into ‘othering’ a group of people.
Claims that the ‘other’ group are weaklings eroding the country but powerful enough to be running some kind of shadow government are common in fascism.
This gives more ‘reason’ for the fearful idiots to push their ‘saviour’ figure into the role of dictator.

They fought a war against an opposing army, not by assassinating people exercising their right to discuss opinions and ideas
Of course it’s morally superior to kill a conscript (the British army was largely comprised of conscripts) than it is to kill a propagandist who advocates for political violence. /s
In fact they fought FOR the right to have opinions and ideas and to express them.
Utter rubbish. The war was instigated over matters of taxation and trade.
They thought it was so important to protect that right, that they put it into the bill of rights
It was so important that it was left out of the Constitution and had to be submitted as a bill to amend the Constitution.
Hardly sounds like the defining cause of the rebellion if they forgot to put it in their foundational document the first time around.

What’s wrong with the example? The revolutionaries killed until they were able to establish a democracy, directly refuting your claim.
- Comment on Too soon? 1 month ago:
You claimed it is impossible to murder your way into democracy, I gave you an example of people murdering their way into democracy.
Shifting the goalposts to be about ‘muh freeze peaches’ is weak.

I have never seen a person get shot in person (I’ve seen those videos too) but I have hunted pigs and kangaroos, bullet wounds really aren’t portrayed well in media.
What’s funny to me is that American conservatives will argue that you can’t have guns in Australia. You can. We have guns and… no school shootings. No politicians being assassinated.
Charlie Kirk spouted all kinds of bullshit about my country. I’m very happy he won’t be doing that anymore.

- Comment on Did I used to be homophobic? Am I? 1 month ago:
There are no stupid questions but there are vapid questions seeking validation over unimportant, meaningless and biased interpersonal relationships.
These people aren’t here to learn something they’re here to get a pat on the back. It is disgusting and shallow.

What kind of vapid shit is this? Its like bots are posting bullshit relationship drama bait.
- Comment on Don't blame migrants for the housing crisis, blame the millionaires 1 month ago:
The racist idiots are shutting down any real discourse around immigration, which is higher than it needs to be by around 20-30% and results in suppressed wages, reduction in housing availability and stress on public infrastructure like hospitals.
You won’t get a good conversation on any of these topics until the racists crawl back to their holes.
Continuing the historically high levels of immigration gives the Nazis a wedge issue they can use to convince more morons to sign up.
Labor can address the issue or we will continue to see Nazi rallies.
Labor will continue the immigration rates because it makes it look like we have higher GDP growth than we really do. A little trick they learnt from Howard.

- Comment on Benjamin Netanyahu says Anthony Albanese 'betrayed' Israel 2 months ago:
France is undoubtedly a more powerful country than Australia but Mexico?
It does have a larger population but it has a smaller GDP, significant internal unrest, is bordered by the worlds most powerful nation and isn’t as geopolitically important due to location.
Power doesn’t exist in a vacuum and based largely on the strategic importance of Australia I would say it ranks ahead of Mexico in terms of power on the world stage.
Also I learnt a few things about Mexico, so that’s neat and thank you.
