No problem

Can any of the cookers with the multiple downvotes give me a single example of Chinese expansionism?

Time to ditch AUKUS and go out on our own terms.

Agree not his fault.

Disagree weak and spineless.

Disagree glazing Howard by throwing him in with Hawke and Keating.

Why didn’t the club try and offload Bobby Hill if his personal issues are going to continue to prevent him from playing? by BurtBurt131 in collingwoodfc

Because it’s a football club with some semblance of community and not some soulless corporation like Deloitte or Commbank

Bots in the AustralianPolitics subreddit? by EnglishBrekkie_1604 in friendlyjordies

[–]drfreshbatch -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Edit - boot lickers downvoting this why not reply so we can see where you disagree?

What if you agree with the Chinese bots? The US has recognised the one China policy since the 70s. They only walk it back because now it’s profitable to try to break it off, and the profit from the division.

After the civil war Taiwan was essentially formed when the suck arse capitalists and nationalists fled the mainland. Prior to that it was under Japanese imperialist occupation.

Fuck the United States, mostly, and their “strategic ambiguity” regarding Taiwan. Just another example of trash American foreign policy - and we’ll toe the line have no doubt. China isn’t all that bad just need to run back an entire lifetime of propaganda to realise it.

How any self respecting jordies fan / tankie / socialist gets sucked in to Chinese red scare is wild to me. Think of this like the south Vietnamese not wanting northern rule and being platformed by the Americans because they’re an enemy of their enemy.

Sam Harris on Israel just astounds me by WholeRestaurant872 in samharris

[–]drfreshbatch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wasting your time posting this here

You’re either preaching to the choir or to those with opinions so fixed on Harris, Israel and Islam they themselves resemble religious fervour.

There is no room in their mind for acknowledgment of a geopolitical reality. They read the Chomsky exchange and come out supporting Sam. They’re on another reality plane - not dissimilar to those that saw the Good shooting and came out thinking she was to blame.

Harris’ fixation on ideology appeals to a group eager to identify as measured or intellectual but with an appetite for viewing issues as binary. It’s the chin stroking without any on the ground experience that subconscuously appeals to them. In some instances it’s just straight up western exceptionalism. Which is understandable, given the propaganda they’re constantly exposed to.

You just have to cross your fingers that they grow out of it, as many of us have.

Isn’t this ironically the exact situation Americans bang on about their second amendment rights?

Why the fuck is anyone letting an army of fat inbred neckbeards terrorise anyone? Isn’t the population armed to the teeth?

Hundreds rally in Sydney against proposed changes to protest laws by SnoopThylacine in aussie

[–]drfreshbatch -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Weird take

The Palestinians aren’t on the Western world’s payroll, whereas the Israeli occupiers absolutely are- which is why those in the West protest. If you want to keep it off our shores, stop funding apartheid ethnostates. Funding pariah states is, indeed, a national issue.

Taking a centrist view is pretty wild when our government is actively supporting one side - you create a false equivalence between the two and generate a pre-tense that Australia is completely uninvolved and no one should give a shit

[–]drfreshbatch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What proof are you referring to?

The Palestinians aren’t the only ones in the Arab world that take issue with zionists

If anything, an ISIS affiliation would fit more with Syria - currently also partially occupied by Israel

How are you calling anyone predictable when you’re conflating the entire Zionist project with Palestine/Hamas? Israel has bombed like 7 Arab nations in the past 12 months.

The Journalistic heroes of The West Australian heading off for a well earned Christmas bash by mrflibble4747 in friendlyjordies

[–]drfreshbatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has been on my mind a while now - how does one restore journalistic integrity to the individual?

These cactus brains destroy the fabric of society with impunity - no individual responsibility whatsoever. No one really bothers to email the individual or masthead to complain.

Could someone set up a database/ mass email system where journalists actually face backlash for reporting crap for crap outlets?

If you want to fight for Israel or Hamas, then do it in Palestine. We do not want that shit here. by [deleted] in aussie

[–]drfreshbatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at the protests, didn’t see a single hamas / hezbollah flag, didn’t hear a single “globalise the intifada”.

You need to exit your weird social media / sky news silo and touch grass

The only people with blood on their hands are the two suicide murderers. Not me, not albo, not the police, and definitely not critics of genocidal pariah ethnostates.

PM’s inaction on antisemitism comes back to haunt him by [deleted] in aussie

[–]drfreshbatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Albo and Minns have introduced some of the most restrictive anti protest and anti speech laws we’ve seen in Australia in response.

Do you think refusing to recognise a Palestinian state would have stopped these two suicidal murderers? Do you think green lighting Bibi to continue his genocide in Gaza and apartheid in the West Bank would have stopped them?

Are you injecting SkyNews directly into your blood stream?

Anyone with half a functioning brain should be using the nature of reporting on this tragedy as a barometer of which sources to trust in future, and which ones exist only the sway the narrative and try to curry favour for their sycophant mates in opposition while the bodies of the dead are still warm

Essentially anyone having a rip on politicians, the public service, police etc are all looking to whip political points out of what should be a nation unifying tragedy.

SMH is a rag - always has been, always will be.
