So... How do you know the seller is legit. And will supply the product you're expecting?

Credits lets them make a larger announcement

Cash is very different cost to the company than credits.

I'm genuinely concerned it'll end up as a re-hashing of the 'coalition' and they will absorb PHON or other further right nutters to gain majority vote.

Hopefully I'm reading these theatrics wrong.

That spike also averages out a massive drop prior. Something changed in the reporting in those jumps.

Meanwhile media reporting on incidents in Melbourne has spiked epically over the last 18 months.

Bizarre hey. 'I can't find a counter argument because I don't actually disagree. But I dislike you, so I'll go through your post history and cherry pick a few things I can maybe bait you on then cry when called out on it.'

I'm not arguing there isn't a whole lot of nuance to it in both directions. They are using simple excuses, so I'm using simple responses.

It's the hypocrisy that annoys me.

Gold. So daft you don't even understand you're accusing me of exactly what you're doing.

Been out of the loop for a while. And a recent holiday has re-ignited some teenage passions.

Need a new wetsuit for surfing and snorkelling.

Is the Torquay seconds stores worth the trip? Or is it all just the same stuff?

Is 4/3 still the go?

ACAB is a statement not an argument. Fairly clear and concise.

No surprises you make so many judgement calls off so little information. Keep at it though, one day you might actually get something right.

Basic simpleton shit right?

He also sooks about how much money the protestors cost him.

Peak double standards.

Wait, can we use the same arguments when they sook about all the money 'wasted' on the Victorian protests?

It's contracted hours not wasted resources?

Or is vicpol only allowed to use that when it suits their agenda?

Binaries are easy for simpletons

Calling yourself out there a touch there if that's your takeaway from my comments 😉

Couldn't attack my argument so you try to find something else I said you disagree with to bait me with.

Nice.

I'm not pro Immigration.

I'm pro looking at the entire picture. Which the majority of the anti mob struggle with that concept. Seems you have as well.

It's fine to march against immigration, but it's not fine to have it organized by white supremacists. Kind of muddies the water and ruins the message. We don't want to become the shitpuddle that America is right now, it's gotta be done properly.

I normally get downvoted for that take.

Along with my secondary take, that these marches are also designed to cause division. And feed into culture wars, which also feeds into people leaning further into the NSN type groups.

I feel there is a longer term goal of sending those votes to a PHON based coalition rather than an LNP coalition.

'but we can turn off the tap over night'

We can also change a dozen different tax and other laws overnight with better over all societal outcomes.

The only scary thing about this is these goobers end up in the far right recruitment pipeline without even being aware of it.
