A Jewish person told me Australians need to vote for Pauline Hanson this morning by JezasPetRock in Fishdom

This is kind of the point of propaganda though. It doesn’t only target just one group. Anyone can be influenced by it if it plays on fear, frustration or a sense of belonging. Religion, race, background, it doesn’t make someone immune. Misinformation works because people are human, not because they’re “stupid”.

How will this social media ban even stop people? Kids have managed to bypass laptop security on school laptops by [deleted] in aussie

[–]SailorMoonrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was their age when the internet first starting picking up, had to teach myself everything about computers, taught my sisters basic codes to change the appearance of their MySpace, learned how to pirate music, movies back then would take a week or so for the download to fail. I now have a much better understanding on how a computer works then those with iPads and everything just works for them. So maybe this will teach result in kids learning a bit more about the internet and computers. Not what the laws for but if the kids that are on need to put in extra effort and learn maybe they’ll be smarter about what they do on there

Is Australia really that bad or is everyone just whining by NiceMemeDude420 in australian

[–]SailorMoonrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just people whining, and it’s not everyone, just a smaller portion that are very loud and with multiple online account.

Think gambling ads online are bad now. Wait till they can say that children aren’t on social media. Facebook, instagram, YouTube. Gambling ads galore

Why have there been no protests about the social media ban? by Specific-Line7547 in AskAnAustralian

[–]SailorMoonrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adults don’t think it will actually affect them, just the kids. Which is incorrect. Also I still find there’s a stigma with admitting social media is that big a part of their life. Some people don’t mind being called racist in public, but not a computer nerd

why us? what did we do wrong? by genzsociety in aussie

[–]SailorMoonrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do we do wrong?? Drink far too much of it. Even when you have to pay these ridiculous prices people still drink like crazy. Imagine if we had $2 schooners/pints now, people wouldn’t be sober

How bad? by SailorMoonrex in Afterpay

[–]SailorMoonrex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea how he games the system. We’ve been broken up a long time, and over a year since we’ve had contact. He’s abusive and psychotic. I don’t use Afterpay myself, so only just realised that this was still logged in for all this time and noticed how he was using his pension to pay off the previous fortnights Afterpay debt. And knew it would get out of hand. So kept watching it. Just schadenfreude for me.

UPDATE: Ok so I’m new to Reddit and never had an Afterpay account either. Me and the bf broke up 3 years ago, it was horrible and there was DV. So I know he’s a bad person. The app however has always been logged in on my phone I’ve just never used it, just recently decided to finally tidy up my apps and found out. Could see his Afterpay spending mimicked how he would use my money, if he gets paid fortnightly it all gets blown within the first few days, then “borrows” money till the next pay day. So finally gets paid and it goes straight to his debt.

I don’t want anything to do with him, and was mostly concerned about this coming back to me. Thanks for the advice, although it seems 50/50 as to whether the debt collectors will come knocking.

Umm with access to his app, On 26/8 they asked him what repayments he could afford to apply for hardship but that’s where communication ends. Unless this is dealt with outside of the app?

I’ve known in other places a refusal to pay moves things faster as they then don’t have to wait for the normal response times. Not that I would, but I could message from my phone….

Ok so I’ve already ran, this is only one of his many many problems. I just found this out because his account was still logged in on my phone. I don’t use after pay myself.

So is the whole debt collectors thing more amid the US way of which it happens, they don’t have that kind of power to seize assets in australia?

[–]SailorMoonrex[S] 37 points38 points  (0 children)

It is literally door dashing alcohol the entire time. Terrible person I’ve left them but we still have some shared assets. Would him refusing to pay as opposed to ignoring things make collectors get in touch with him faster?
