I agree but if it was that easy it would have been done already and there would already be another evil gatekeeper to hate.
- Comment on Let's chat about these SEVEN nuclear power plants the LNP want to build ... 1 week ago:
It’s a chicken and egg situation. However if the media were more concerned with journalism than audience metrics. I think the bullshit might have less standing in the eyes of the public.
- Comment on Let's chat about these SEVEN nuclear power plants the LNP want to build ... 1 week ago:
The worst thing about this ‘plan’ is the media treating it like it’s an actual real thing that will actually happen if the LNP get in power.
- Comment on Australia should pass bill to ban non-prescription vapes, Senate committee finds 1 month ago:
or big tobacco donations
I don’t think the Labor party gets these anymore or they wouldn’t be go after vapes in the first place.
- Comment on Australia should pass bill to ban non-prescription vapes, Senate committee finds 1 month ago:
I don’t think you need a prescription for that anymore
- Comment on Siphonophorae are natures little horrors. 1 month ago:
Well technically a bigfin squid has never met a human, but you know those 4-8 metre long arms are just made for hugging so if they ever did meet one that lucky human is in for one big squish.

There’s nothing to fear about a big fin squid they just want to hug you

- Comment on Judge rules YouTube, Facebook and Reddit must face lawsuits claiming they helped radicalize a mass shooter | CNN Business 3 months ago:
Nah. This isn’t guilt by association
In her decision, the judge said that the plaintiffs may proceed with their lawsuit, which claims social media companies — like Meta, Alphabet, Reddit and 4chan — ”profit from the racist, antisemitic, and violent material displayed on their platforms to maximize user engagement,”
Which despite their denials the actually know: nbcnews.com/…/facebook-knew-radicalized-users-rcn…
- Comment on The later books are really something 3 months ago:
A bit shit? Mate I had many long painful arguments about the quality of God Emperor back in the day on Usenet, alt.something.something.dune, The lengths people went to defend it made me realise it’s not just a bit shit, it’s a lot shit, but maybe, deliberately so.
- Comment on The later books are really something 3 months ago:
Become a worm, to do what your father was too scared to. Rule as a tyrant for a thousand years to fundamentally shake shit up and keep shit shook up. Die. Shit comes back as if nothing ever happened.

I can think of two types of people who’d be offended by this: racists and someone who thought they could make a few quid because the person saying it was famous.

- Comment on Childhood disrupted: is the internet damaging young people’s development? 4 months ago:
And that’s the thing to expand on my other comment. Kids are who are restricted from access to devices and the internet are at a complete disadvantage to those that aren’t. But it does need to be monitored by parents.
I’ve heard of both sides from my own kids. There are kids who have been totally restricted who have secret accounts on social media and kids who had no restrictions who had social media accounts that were completely public when they were nine.
- Comment on We don’t have all the facts on UNRWA allegations, Penny Wong admits 4 months ago:
So scared to be called antisemetic they’ll blindly believe whatever Israel says.
Labor need to read the room. Openly opposing Israel’s genocide won’t lose them votes and the US will het over the pathetic capitulation.
And honestly I don’t understand why the US government thinks that supporting Israel’s genocide will in anyway secure their position in the region. Like I’m gonna upset everyone except the cunts in charge of the military of the main colonist nation of the region, that’ll make the region admire and respect my agenda.

- Comment on Teen deepfake victim pushes for federal law targeting AI-generated explicit content 5 months ago:
It’s not trolling it’s bullying. You need to think beyond this being about “porn”. This is a reputational attack that makes the victim more likely to be further victimised via date rape, stalking, murder. These things already happen based on rumours, deepfakes images/videos will only make it worse. The other problem is that it’s almost impossible to erase once it’s on the internet, so the victim will likely never be free of the trauma or danger as the images/videos resurface.
- Comment on Peter Dutton calls for boycott of Woolworths after Australia Day merchandise dropped 5 months ago:
Do you think either retailer would give a crap about “inclusivity” or the “broader discussion” if sales weren’t declining? It’s not pandering it’s marketing
- Comment on Peter Dutton calls for boycott of Woolworths after Australia Day merchandise dropped 5 months ago:
Let the market decide. No not like that
