  • The issue is the worst of both sides are the ones defining each other. I won’t deny that I disagree with some of the things being pushed as part of education for young children. But I wouldn’t say that that’s grooming let alone define an entire group of people by that. Its defiantly not good faith.

    I think the beautiful part of the internet is if u don’t want to be around a particular person u can block them and they simply disappear. They have a right to speech but nobody has the right to force you to listen.

    I don’t think engaging with people emotionally is the correct way to engage especially over a text medium. I think the only real productive discussion that can be had without devolving into a screaming and name calling is rational and logical. I find that emotional arguments and weaponised empathy get deployed on mass instead of rational discussion.

    I’m not saying that you should be forced to share a space with such people I simply think that others should not be restricted from having such spaces and engaging freely with people in those spaces.

    This is what I’m saying people have been called fascist so long they have become the fascists. Its both sides stripping us of our freedoms and making our lives shit. Its a choice between get fucked or get fucked lite. We are all to distracted fighting a bullshit culture war to realise its just a distraction from the real issues. Funny how the whole culture war thing kicked off just after occupy wall street.

    In Australia we have preferential voting so we don’t have a 2 party system. We have the liberals who are centre right, we have labor who are centre left, we have the greens who are communists and we have the nationals who are fascists. The nationals never get any seats, liberal and labor trade places as the government every couple years and the greens get a couple seats. This time the greens lost almost all their seats same as the liberals.











  • Tbh I’m not even sure what the right and left wing means or believes anymore.

    Both terms have been so utterly corrupted and coopted that they have become meaningless to the point of simply being a term used to other one group by the other.

    Well that’s the problem everyone thinks they are exactly the minimum amount of left and that anyone right of them is a facist. If someone is continuously called a fascist Nazi eventually they will listen.

    Australia wasn’t so much on the extreme of Americans but we are getting there. Interestingly both the right wing and the extreme left got fucked in our most recent election. Mind u I’m not happy with the current federal government they are introducing a pre capital gains tax on everyone’s savings.
