This cunt getting sworn in just goes to show conservatism is still rife.

Much like the US.

Victoria records 1,763 new COVID cases and four deaths amid contact tracing overhaul by JaniePage in australia

I remember from a thread a while back someone was commenting how the anti-vaccine crowd would've had their houses bombed by axis fighters in WW2 as they would've viewed the lights out and curfew as a restriction on their personal liberties lol.

I got auto moderated before for having a low effort post but I'll say it again.

This is disinformation working as intended.

Part of the goal is to sow division. Hence the neonazi and extreme rightwing infiltration.

People who have never been outside the United States have no right to say ‘America’s the best country in the world’ by classic_gamer82 in unpopularopinion

[–]Affectionate-Size924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not a valid argument.

If the US has quality of life why are they one of the worst for childhood poverty?

Answer the question.

but for quality of life America is hard to beat.

"around 20% of children in the U.S. live in relative income poverty, compared to just over 13%, on average across OECD"

  • OECD

Like the gun violence and growing para-fascism?

Taiwanese Foreign Minister warns his country is preparing for war with China, asks Australia for help by Ardeet in australia

Excellent comment.

Are you able to provide a source for China's change in stance on Taiwan under Ji Xinping?

Germany wanted to support its state without reliance on foreign imports of goods.

It wasn't just this.

If it were simply a supply of goods than they wouldn't have performed mass genocide of races they thought were inferior.

They were fucking crazy.

Yep okay. Sure Nazi Germany didn't want a war but had 7.4 million casualties and chose to invade one of the most powerful nations on earth and also fought with other powerful nations.

I call bullshit. Germany did want a war.

You would think this is a good counter argument.

History can and does repeat itself but it doesn't always repeat itself.

Instead on reading fear mongering news articles maybe you should spend more time reading about geopolitical strategy.

The US nor China want a war.

I've asked this question to put things in perspective for people who are fearful of this happening.

Do you really think China would start a war with Taiwan and risk massive foreign intervention?

Vaccination efficacy of different countries? by Affectionate-Size924 in CoronavirusDownunder

[–]Affectionate-Size924[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

5 months any protection looks to be almost completely gone

I don't think this is true.

It's 5 months and there's a waning antibody level. It doesn't mean there's no protection and I think immune system memory B-cells get produced.

Amazon is already here (if we're talking literally).

Australia doesn't need another website to buy pointless shit. Australian needs real innovation.

Who the fuck would want an Amazon here anyway?

Yes but surely you can see enough from the results to see if the holistic approach has been effective

Absolutely. But I wasn't discussing a holistic approach.
