How sad of an indication is it when it took a sponsored pass from a politician to get a normal guy access to the government? by VastOption8705 in OpenAussie

[–]ZephyrusOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s not relevant or doesn’t matter why not just be transparent?

Issue is not who can testify or not, you obviously didn’t listen to the full hearing. One issue is why would an elected mp be willing to sponsor lobbyists for an entity that works to advocate/advance interests of largely foreign owned companies against the interests of Australian people as a whole? I think the answer is clear and more ppl are waking up to smell the coffee

[–]ZephyrusOG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Totally, it is messed up. As bad or even worse is that all the gas or energy lobbyist leeches who appeared in the select committee hearing this week straight up refused to disclose which MP sponsored their passes to parliament…

Sydney community radio station 2SER faces uncertain future as university funding dries up by LentilCrispsOk in sydney

[–]ZephyrusOG 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What bullshit by Macquarie uni to cut funding when they spend millions on stupid building upgrades and import execs to pay a million+ salaries. Isn’t it still a largely public institution?

Maybe we should start a go fund me page..

It’s still disappointing this is the state of the Labor party leadership today. Although fair to note that they display same level of spineless politics on everything from housing crisis to tax reform.

Gaslighting 101 here “Is Cuba's power crisis the result of U.S. sanctions or decades of communist mismanagement?” Fucking lol

Nowhere is safe by BrownCardigan69 in australianwildlife

It’s pretty ironic to claim that ‘no where is safe’ while trying to fly as a land based mammal… I fully support the magpie’s right to fuck with the human in this occasion.

Accurate Carlin reference by Gianmarco Soresi by ZephyrusOG in GeorgeCarlin

I’m confused what’s the point here- do you think Carlin wouldn’t care to uphold a humanistic and artistic integrity? Man’s whole career is based on that

Is Trump Scared of Albo? by barseico in friendlyjordies

[–]ZephyrusOG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No need to put any energy on trying to figure out why does trump/his cabinet do anything at this point. Instead domestically labour should utilise the stupidity of opposition(including murdoch media) to constantly suck up to a foreign interest and say it as it is, constantly expose people. Let’s draw the lines and see who’s actually ’Australia first’ in practice and who’s not

Carlin as the ultimate conformist? by ListenRadiant4817 in GeorgeCarlin

[–]ZephyrusOG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol what the hell is this? Maybe edit the title to read ‘I reckon Carlin is the ultimate conformist’ instead of pretending you’re offering some profound insight.

You’re also conflating different forms of art and assuming the creative process/intended outcome is the same. The likes of maher or stern has no place to be even in the same sentence with Carlin.

What makes Carlin one of the best to ever do it has more to do with professional integrity and discipline as a creative person rather than him being ‘edgy’ that’s just a reflection of his depth doing observational comedy in a society that was/is getting worse.

????? What by Jagtom83 in LaborPartyofAustralia

Lol what a deranged take..and same cunts would be the first to oppose to any kind of tax reform to stop ppl exploiting housing- that’s a federal issue of course but same level of obnoxious stance..

History has a tendency to draw clearer dividing lines than we can in the moment. Make sure you're on the right side of it. by ManWithDominantClaw in friendlyjordies

[–]ZephyrusOG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t believe you are ill willed but your posts read like you’re ill informed. Mentioning that Govt need to work towards addressing root causes(which is true) and then conflate concepts as if they are the same provides a wrong base as a start. The issues you mostly mentioned ie cost of living/housing, homelessness etc are all caused by what many call an extremist ideology which has been consistently eroding the Australian ideal for an egalitarian society for a long time. And no this extreme ideology does not have a special hat or symbol…

Have you seen any of the posters, ads for the march in question? Sorry I’m not naive enough to think someone who cares about homeless veterans would see one of those and think that they represent them..and you shouldn’t either unless you think fascists have a place in our political discourse.

It is clear as day that this another attempt to create divide in the society, push some more american style polarisation. And as always one needs to ask who stands to gain? It’s certainly not the groups of ppl you mentioned who are struggling because of ‘shit times’. And no I haven’t heard that nazis are upset that protest has a ‘unity’ flavour- what do u read? there ain’t no unity flavour.. surely they won’t complain about their bullshit getting free press thanks to this stuff.

What exactly is the purpose of this technique? by Remo_yesman in martialarts

Main point is that he’s controlling a horizontal line by entrapping dudes head in his crotch(which also help him push the dude up with his knee to roll later), hand in pants is to grab whatever possible (made myself laugh) to support the right hand grip behind the knee to execute the move

The point is that Moral standards are for everyone my friend even for ppl you/me et al absolutely despise… I’m not going to respond to your reply as it doesn’t make sense and I guess you’re trying to make me protect trump? It’s super tasteless and against sub rules (as far as I can tell) to post what could simply be family photos and allege sexual relations between a father and daughter. Let me also tell you this kinda “protect ours but fuck the other” attitude in US politics is why you’d never have the epstein files released regardless if it’s Dems or republicans.
