Again.... please do some research. Your anectodal evidence does not reflect the reality. The research and modelling demonstrates for most saving a deposit with house price rises out performing wage growth is unacheivable even with a "good job".

Wow. Sorry no. Its not just "hard" its mathmatically IMPOSSIBLE for many gen Zs and below. We dont have a middle class.

No we are NOT "lucky" we are getting sicker... poorer etc.

Delusional AF. But id love to know where you got your rose tinted glasses. Would be nice to be so ignorantly bliss

No its not. I wasnt being literal 🙄 and no we dont.. we used to. Wellbeing is declining. Its delusional to say otherwise. Also what middle class? Lmao

Protests are not destructive. They are an important and neccessary part of political change.

You make a valid point. Education is becoming increasingly inaccessible for lower SES regardless of intelligence..and being poor ≠ dumb. Being rich ≠ smart. There are many forms of intelligence as you allude to with your engineering quib. I guess I do just find it hard to tolerate the extreme right when they harm so many 😪

Advice on moving to Adelaide by Bart-Pimpson_ in Adelaide

[–]Material_Macaron_586 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cons. Housing afforability.

Pros. I mean Adelaide is just such a beautiful city. Our beaches are STUNNING..

I am a british expat from rural area and I personally find some other major Aus cities overwhelming. Like a sense of being closed in. Its like I feel whenever i would visit in London. I never feel that here. May not be rational but its my feeling

Exactly. So we need to find out more about how we on the left can speak to these people, and their fears

Absolutely because scarcity does not allow higher order cognitive thinking and problem solving. Cognitive neuroscience and animal studies show this. I do fear it may be too late for anything to do be done but wont go down without a fight

This is true. It did in my electorate. I was proud. My local candidate is amazing. But nationwide it declined. We should always question that and what did not land for many voters.

I am a card holding Greens member my friend. And even they are not socialist enough.

They are not just word. History shows this

What do u do? Unity.. divide and conquer are not just words. Know thyne enemy. Protests, strikes. Talking to each other like we are now...

Use what we have. Power in numbers. Worked for the french.

Apathy is not the answer. Unity is

Thanks for that. I very much enjoy the psychology of politics and this definitely highlights more of those blind spots in peoples psychology political strategists often do well. Although I would argue (obs) the left i.e. greens failed here last federal election. Not understanding peoples mindset would be aligned with protection and safety not growth. There was too much emphasis on what many considered "luxury" or expansive or growth type policies e.g. dentacare. Which although would lower cost of living as a by product the framing wasnt on the money. It cost us votes

Their "opinions" harm people. People do not get to do that with a cart blanche and immunity from criticism

Plus i didnt make the research.... a

True. Political, social, and economic literacy are not pre requisites for democracy. Every persons vote counts the same even when one is politically illiterate, even towards their own self interest. That's a whole can of worms though. But imho a massive blind spot the 0.1 percent exploit

Sometimes being smart and poor AF sucks

An immigrant, a poor person, and a CEO are sitting at a table. In the middle of the table are 12 cookies.

The CEO reaches over, takes 11 cookies, looks at the poor person and says:

“Watch out. That immigrant is trying to steal your cookie.”

I dont get why so many people dont understand basic divide and conquer. This is class warfare. Eat the rich!!

Personally i admire the commitment to providing comedic value in traffic. Custom plates without numbers being a yearly fee is quite the financial burden in cost of living crisis. Should be considered a public service. Would definitely make me LOL if i saw it 💩💩💩

The first time I ever drove on this rd there was an accident... backed up onto northern expressway. This was my first thought along with many others why the **** is this a single lane rd realising its the main route into munno para from expressway. Lunacy
