Greens wouldn’t have. That being said thank fucking god it’s not the liberals in charge I don’t even want to imagine what shit fuck mess we’d be in if they were in government during this Iran war.

You think Trump and the pedophile cabal would still be at large if they fucked dogs instead?
- Comment on Senior ADF source confirms Australian Army preparing for war 1 week ago:
You’re still wasting your preferences by voting Labor first. Labor or liberal are essentially guaranteed to be in the last 2 preferences for almost every seat in the country. You can put them 2nd to last and they’ll still count your vote towards them in preference flows.

Please for the love of god never give either of the majors your first preference

Fuck this shit

Really miss the stars I got to see in rural WA growing up. Now I can’t see any.
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Yeah from how it has been worded “has there ever been a woman that lies about sexual assault” is a valid interpretation of the prompt and unsurprisingly anyone interpreting it that way will answer “yes, absolutely.” Who knows how many of those people actually harbour misogynistic beliefs though.

What are you even talking about mate?
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Nice, if it’s real easy to find you should have no problem doing it then. Good luck!
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Good point, I would be interested in learning more about that. I feel like it may be because the insult is always a precursor to their actual message. For example “you’re a loser with no girlfriend, but it’s because women only respect alpha males. Here’s how you become one…” It uses their insecurity to sell them misogyny and right wing ideology. I think structurally different to and mentally easier to accept than how a man might be insulted from a left wing perspective. Example: “you’re a loser with no girlfriend because you’re an incel who hates women.”
Objectively the left wing one is closer to the truth and heeding its advice would be more likely to socialise them and put them on the path of finding love and companionship, but it’s pretty obvious to see which of the two a young inexperienced and insecure man would be more likely to follow.

Right so that’s who did the research but it doesn’t show the results or their methodology. These are super important things to know!
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Absolutely, I was so frustrated that I couldn’t find the data. They didn’t show their working so all I have to go on in terms of believing them is their reputation.
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Link?
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
If you didn’t think I was already a moron why would you call me one? Are you really incapable of seeing how difficult it is for me to engage constructively with your argument while you are constantly interweaving it with personal attacks? I couldn’t ask for a better example of how calling people dumb makes it hard for them to engage with their ideas. Again, no wonder young men with no experience are being entrapped by the far right.
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
If it is I wouldn’t be able to find out because it’s not linked to in the article .
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Yeah they’re being courted by the far right because the far right aren’t calling them idiots. Really not that hard to grasp.
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Who said that?
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
It would have been really great if they linked a detailed breakdown of the information gathered in the article. Swear to god every article that says “we did a study” never show the fucking study. Like come on let me see the data.
- Comment on 40% of teenage boys believe women lie about domestic and sexual violence: new research 2 weeks ago:
Read the comments in this thread, read this:
“Social research has shown boys and men increasingly feel alienated, humiliated or uncertain about their place in the world.”
We just need to call young men stupid one more time guys and gender equality will be achieved. No wonder they feel their being lied to.
- Comment on Lesbian group seeks legal exemption to exclude trans women from events 3 weeks ago:
Yeah like why are you so hung up on that aye
- Comment on Lesbian group seeks legal exemption to exclude trans women from events 3 weeks ago:
Well. I now know which side is being more reasonable
- Comment on Lesbian group seeks legal exemption to exclude trans women from events 3 weeks ago:
I mean if they’re allowed to exclude men on the basis of sex then I don’t see why not. What’s to stop them from rebranding themselves from a lesbian group to a cis woman lesbian group.

Gen x one nation voter block won’t go for it
- Comment on Australia and EU on verge of striking free trade deal long stalled by beef, parmesan and prosecco 4 weeks ago:
Agreed, I still think this kind of change is decades in the making at least. The gen X one Nation crowd would never go for it and they are shaping up to be a MASSIVE voting block. I don’t see it happen until we’re past them.
- Comment on Australia and EU on verge of striking free trade deal long stalled by beef, parmesan and prosecco 4 weeks ago:
No fucking way would the general public go for it though
- Comment on Australia and EU on verge of striking free trade deal long stalled by beef, parmesan and prosecco 4 weeks ago:
I’m very much an eu fanboy and love this. I’m so sad that my dual citizenship with the UK no longer gets me EU status. I hope EU people love Australia too, though I do know of that one French Lemmy cooker who hates us with a firey passion God bless him. Fighting the good fight mate!
- Comment on Australia and EU on verge of striking free trade deal long stalled by beef, parmesan and prosecco 4 weeks ago:
To be fair if I bought a product advertised as “Australian made” I would expect it to be made in fuckin aus. The fact that they have their own special word for it is irrelevant to me. Most of the time the word for the thing is just the name of the place it’s from too. Not really their fault if the product gains more notoriety than the place.
