  What’s wild is how people trust cops in this country. Watch the Moonlight State and know the joke is alive and well.

  When you think the Brisbane Times couldn’t be more of a rag - not that I would expect political literacy from an outfit that struggles even with journalism but bloody hell.

  Fraser Annings office was literally in our CBD - like come off it.

  I’m surprised noone has mentioned Fraser Anning - he was going to mask off neo-Nazi rallies and when the Christchurch massacre happened he basically came out in Parliament and said “they deserve it”.

  When he was censured, he doubled down in his last speech.

  Or the guy who outright says he’s a “science skeptic”.

  We’re very literally banana republic and it shows often.

  except the alchemists actually strived to move towards more reliable and accurate science

  Forgive if I’m misunderstanding, but wouldn’t that be chemists striving toward reliable and accurate science? Sovcits being alchemists or petty magi is a pretty great comparison, honestly.

  Back at you, bootlicker.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian students shun education degrees as fears grow over ‘unprecedented’ teacher shortage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  How you still have faith in a status quo that’s actively fucking us all says so much. The absolute limit of your imagination is to graduate being abused and become the boot - which is sad as hell because no matter what you do you’ll never be rich enough to escape this. You’re too far behind, dude - you can’t afford to pay your way out of what’s coming. Accept it. You’re disposable. They’ll die laughing at you for selling your life away for table scraps.

  Putting the boot into other poors isn’t going to stop you from being who/where you are.

  Of all of us, you’re going to fall the hardest no matter how hard you run away - and all the supports you’ll need to ease you through ‘failing’ at neoliberalism on a dying planet will have been cannibalised by upstanding, fanatically Thatcherite cunts like yourself.

  When your time comes, and I say this earnestly, be sure to do the rest of us a favour and post your plot so we can organise a schedule for pissing on it. You’ll be like the forgotten soldier for contemporary idiots.

  Yikes.

  Odds on, political donations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian students shun education degrees as fears grow over ‘unprecedented’ teacher shortage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This boils down to “fuck you, got mine”.

  That money is our clapped out health system. That money is our clapped out education system. That money is rebuilding towns from the next season of bushfires - hell, maybe they’ll work in some climate resistant infrastructure. That money is land management. That money is research for the CSIRO. That money is social housing.

  That money is department funding to go after multinationals.

  That money is stopping someone else from needing to put up with the bullshit of food scarcity you did.

  This isn’t America and thank fuck. If we stop spending, it falls apart and we’ve been putting off maintaining our society for decades now. Grow and stop seeing the bullshit you went through as validation to put others through worse.

  Piss off - it’s absolutely moronic policy. Yes, give teeth to attack multinationals, but tax millionaires, ffs. I’m tired of hearing about new tax loopholes for people who’ve never struggled a day in their lives - corporate or civilian.

  Stage 3 is theft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Australian students shun education degrees as fears grow over ‘unprecedented’ teacher shortage⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Literally happened to me. I went back to my primary school for work experience - I had the incredible pleasure of being placed with a teacher who had inspired me a lot as a younger kid.

  I’ll never forget. One time at lunch, she just sat down with me on duty and said in the most soul deep tired voice I’ve heard “is this what you want?”. Don’t think she said a word after. Woke me right up.

  It’s criminal what we’ve done to our education system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a labour-friendly car company?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Inefficient. Utilise your time to provide maximum benefit for the biosphere before you return to it. Nature is not a solo juggernaut - it needs us to help to our part.

  Or drilling oil

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you work for a corporation that you oppose ideologically, if the pay is good?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, God, that’s a difficult position to be put in.

  Sorry man - you shouldn’t have to make choices like that… if you do have to take it, I’d try to ease my concious by redirecting their money. Like, I did that when I had to work for a for-profit contract company staffing Australias social services. KPIs for welfare phone lines staffed by undertrained whoevers. They’d penalise us for taking the time to help vulnerable people. Disgusting company - left the second I could afford to. I put something aside for local mutual aids and environmental groups.

  God man - I’m sorry, that just sucks.

  Good luck. Hope you can avoid Raytheon.
