a whiteman who has some authority over others, who not only hasn't raped anyone, or stared at them creepily...

Look, I think when the Australian goons start out with a monthly thread they expect that thread to do its job until the month is up. I know we don't directly vote for the thread starter, but there is an implication there that the OP will remain the OP until the time for a new OP comes around. The Australian goons 'made' their choice and we expect the posters to get on with the job, namely debating how best to bring about an Environmentally friendly Communist Dystopia through some sort of self-destructive accelerationism.

There's a lot of resentment and anger in the thread now and I think that's going to carry through to the next thread.

Katter party stripped of five staff by Qld Premier for refusing to denounce 'final solution' speech

http://amp.abc.net.au/article/10192636

quote:

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has announced she will strip Katter's Australian Party of five extra staff positions it was granted last term, after it refused to denounce federal senator Fraser Anning's contentious maiden speech last month.

But the Prime Minister believes Mr Dutton acted appropriately, and said the immigration system benefitted from having a minister able to exercise discretion on certain cases.
"There is nothing before me that suggests any misuse of that power," Mr Morrison said.
"Nothing at all.
"It's not a file, it's a human being."

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I am incredibly stupid
slightly confused foreigner question, did the potato head guy stab Turnbull in the back because he wanted to be prime minister and then the shark guy somehow stabbed him in the back afterwards and beat him to it?

or was potato head a stalking horse for the shark guy all along?

Turnbull stood aside and the Sharks guy became the not-Potato candidate by default. He won because The Potato still didn't have the numbers on the second spill attempt.

Who was the dude who complained that people who play video games was lazy but also said that people had the right to be fat and eat poo poo if they want. I don't remember who that was but I'm guessing he was a big unit.

quote:

In one particular incident his quick wit and affinity for humour were demonstrated when a heckler pointed to his ample paunch and exclaimed "What are you going to call it, George?" to which Reid replied: "If it's a boy, I'll call it after myself. If it's a girl I'll call it Victoria. But if, as I strongly suspect, it's nothing but piss and wind, I'll name it after you."[7]
