@pollytics.bsky.social Don't want to speak for Osman but my view is getting steamrolled does not have to = getting elected. They can turn screws until any immigration = woke and a ban = sensible centre. Also Pauline Hanson keeps getting elected again and again.
I felt the same way watching Mehdi Hasan circle debate interview - Hasan was the only one there who loved America. Everyone else hated terrible US ruined the immigrants. But immigration is the only thing that makes the US awesome.
No one is forcing those ass holes to stay here! If they think the country is shit they can get the fuck out. Go move to Hungary or US.
My family moved here from a fascist country not speaking any English and every one of us has assimilated in Australia. A lot of people (white) people though seem to hate what Australian policy has been forever and continues to be and just hate the whole damn country because of it.
I know I'm really dum and all but if I was running the show I'd talk NON STOP about how there are people in Australia who refuse to assimilate, and they're all white nationalists. Like Pauline did this shit 30 years and Australia has gotten way more awesome (because of the immigrants) since then.
I can provide for rite $ dm me
non us politics is same as use fascist. in australia we have labor government that hates people opposing genocide
more subs about why polling is bad. I used to love Nate silver for his poll analysis but since subscribing to you ive realised polling is bad, doesn't tell us anything and that policy, not polling is what matters
I mean to be fair it does keep the money in the
I've lived there and its genuinely great, but I would not recommend you moving to Alice Springs, even though there's a lot of American influence on the town.
I'd hate to live in a country where criminals have such easy access to guns, seems weird Ds never talk about that. Just ad after ad after ad of this guy got a gun with no check because of Trump.
I am Australian. The crime rate in your lowest crime cities is WAY higher than rate in all our cities. You know how Rs have ads saying "Biden let this foregeigner in and he did crimes". Why don't Ds do "Trump let this guy buy a gun and he killed children?"
Given a choice between nothing and getting a million dollars if I survive one charge by someone that size, im taking nothing.
genuine question - how do all these anti immigrant people make friends or find people to date???
thank you Amy! Likewise, it is always ok to assassinate fascist dictators when they take power, which sadly seems to be every single western "leader" at the moment.
as foretold by the prophecy...
your non answer confirms you are 100% incorrect and I am 100% incorrect - I think your problem is you are mistaking bureaucratic capitalism with socialism, very common mistake. Trick is to ask - are working class in control of means of production. If no, its capitalist, not socialist.
Capitalism is more controlling of economy now than whenever the hell your country got free healthcare. it cannot happen now. very depressing you do not understand this.
Im sorry, can you please inform me which countries had working class in control of means of production??? I look forward to you telling me where this had been tried and failed "every single time".
Thank you Amy. Democracy was worth a try, but it has clearly failed. The capitalists pull the strings (see Gina and Clive removing Rudd), even though we are supposedly ruled by elected representatives. We need revolution, preferably peaceful, with working class seizing control of means of production
oh I see YOU have never had a gun pointed at you. YOU have never had to borrow multiple credit cards to find a way to pay your medical debt. I have. But feel free telling me how you know best because you live in a country that has those things. Where do you get off?
From then on there is only horror.
What I'm imagining is it starts in the hot desert and everything seems fine. Then at the mid point the rain comes and never ends and that triggers the complete breakdown. The mud trapping them in the same way as the French were trapped at the Battle of Agincourt.
You can do it! Writings like a muscle you just need to use it! When I read your post I remembered this pic and thought OMG this has to be done.
Have you written a novel before?
the only thing you are committed to is child murderers getting access to AR-15s and the poor getting zero healthcare and Bangladesh being a foot underwater leading to deaths of millions because you need three cars and a massive house.. Great job supporting capitalism.
@pamkeithdc.bsky.social Hello - following up again - the dems won this race by 10 points. Have you revised your opinion as to whether Dems made a mistake in not nationalising this race???
Look it sounds like you have been voting democrat all you life. How is that working out for you? Only wealthy country on earth that lets anyone buy guns. Only wealthy country on earth that doesn't cover your healthcare if you are poor. What you are doing has not worked. Revolution is required.
see below article from New Yorker in 2015 - I ws pro Bernie at first but then read this and realised he was a reformist, not a revolutionary. Like zohran, if you want to win you will never effect change - revolution is required to stop capitalists who always hurt working
I don't want to be a part of that so I never vote Democrat Party.
no.... I genuinely am a socialist. I never support reformist candidates (Obama, Clinton, Biden, AOC, Sanders), only revolutionary ones. Obama = killing children with drones, Biden supporting genocide.
As someone living in a state where abortion is now legal, I am forever grateful for RBGs courage in standing up to men who wanted her to retire. She is my hero 🥺
100% correct! RBG opposed the way roe v wade make abortion legal. she thought it should have been done piecemeal and not all at once. I believe she deliberately did not retire to deny Obama replacing her, so that roe v wade would overturned and abortion be made legal piecemeal like she wanted.
actually under socialism there would be no jails because causes of jail (poverty, racism, homophobia, sexism, transphobia) would no longer exist. They only exist because capitalists trick working class into thinking that way to stop working class solidarity.
what you are saying is complete BS. I have never voted for a democrat candidate in my life because they are all fascists. Majority of people are like me and would vote for a democrat if they held revolutionary socialist views, unlike pathetic reformist Sanders and AOC. Especially in Georgia!
exactly im a socialist and id want Mandami to win more if he held DSA views. I actually voted trump last three elections because I see him as heightening the contradictions in capitalism and making revolution more likely
Very sad Malala cannot be your president instead you get child killers like obama, genocide backers like Biden and fascists like trump
TBF though I also nullified fascist Obama especially after Malala told him to stop killing children with drones and Obama just laughed at her and said fuck you and pushed the drone killing children button instead of saying I have kids I wouldn't want them killed for no reason -Obama had zero empathy
oh sorry I understand now - when you said trump is not our president you meant you have ideological issues with him, and nullified him in your head, but not literally. I feel same way about Trump 😀🤣 I agree Vance should be impeached for hiding, they should do same to Schemer for hiding Biden illness
oh sorry when you said trump real US president you mean he was president but now he is dead so he no longer president? But wouldn't that mean couch fucker is president? or are you suggesting trump and vance have been killed by a coup?
Oh apologies, sorry I am Australian so don't understand how your system works. Who is the current US president? Is it Mike Johnson?
Randos on twitter are saying President Trump has died. There is zero evidence supporting this. @amyremeikis.bsky.social, an Australian journalist, is discreetly saying they hope the American president is dead, and if they are not dead, at least it was fun to think about him being dead.

OMG how amazing would it be if Trump and Albanese both died this weekend!!! We could change the date to Fuck Off Facist Dictators day!!!
if they have not can you please write it???
for working class to seize control, the contractions under capitalism need to be heightened. this is occurring under trump, which will soon lead to working class seizing control. States will no longer exist, country boundaries eradicated, there will be no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia.
Gina Rheinhart and Clive Palmer, mining billionaires, removed him as prime minister. positive change for working class can never occur under capitalism. only socialism, with working class controlling means of production can make this happen.
Fascism is when genocidal capitalists control means of production. This is all of western history. When politicians try to make capitalists pay their fair share, the capitalists in control replace them (see what happened to PM Australia Kevin Rudd who wanted mining billionaires to pay more tax)
YOU are the one who supports a party whose best option for senate leader is chuck. THAT is being a dork, ahaha ahaha
100% AGREE! all dems are pathetic! We need politicians who are strong, which is why I voted for TRUMP!!!
Hey, I'm not saying this is the single greatest astronomy book ever written. I'll let others come to realize that on their own.
@jamellebouie.net may I recommend to you the app Fantasy Hike? It's not official but basically it tracks your distance walked as you, a Halfling (not a Hobbit) travel from your home in the ground to Mt Fire (not Mt Doom), with the distance matching up to Frodo's journey. Ive just passed Tom Bombadil
yo this guy is cooking
ah OK got ya. So we both agree capitalism is terrible :) What are we even arguing about then!!!
Personally, my own view is that I'd find it hard to have friends or date people or you know, be born, if there was no immigration in australia. Very depressing that Albanese is doing everything he can to reduce it :(
anti immigration rally divides working class, especially white working class, serving capitalists interests.
This is explained by goals of our genocidal warmongering capitalist rulers. Capitalists seek to divide working class so they don't realise capitalists serve only their own interests and don't care about working class. Pro-Palestine movement threatens working class solidarity, threatening capitalists
Look since I tried the staring at the sun cure I haven't seen any evidence proving it is not effective. To be fair I have not seen anything else either - I'm blind.
Following up again - can you please confirm with me which countries have working class in control of the means of production, which would align with my values. I do not adhere to genocidal capitalists controlling countries politics like Australia (see Gina and Clive replacing Rudd with Gillard).
can I throw gobstoppers at them? Or watermelons from the roof? In australia once a group of aboriginal women attacked a police officer with frozen kangaroo tails, but they weren't charged because they did not find the weapon they allegedly attacked with (it was delicious).
Just so I understand your legal advice is I can walk up to police officers and throw sandwiches at them??? I feel like if that is not a law it should be how can police do their job if they have people throwing sandwiches at them all day? Is it all foods or just sandwiches that are exempt?
exactly the hulk fought for good reasons like stopping Ultron and Thanos. Hulk is good and nothing like Katter who is bad.
The Hulk got angry and fought for good. Katter is supporting an anti immigration march, which is fascism.
Sorry to bother you but can you please provide a list of the countries in the world where workers control means of production? The ones that align with my values. Thx xoxo
I think your issue is that you are mistaking bureaucratic capitalism (Mao, Stalin, Madura) with socialism. but they are completely different! If workers fought for their rights under Mao Stalin Maduro they would be executed. Not socialism at all, sadly. Once again - socialism = workers control MoP
I'm sorry I'm confused - I wasn't aware there were countries where the working class controlled means of production??? Perhaps I am mistaken thought! Can you please provide me a list of the countries where workers control means of production, so I can consider your offer? Thx xoxo
and as luck would have it, my shit is in chunks too! its a xmas miracle!!!
100% agree but I think that about literally everything else 🤣
Im literally watching it as I shit right now! it can be done! You just have to believe in yourself! That's the place to start!
It's OK that you weren't aware of this - our genocidal capitalistic education system doesn't want people to be aware of this so no shame on your part :)
Before you criticise a country for being socialist, ask yourself, do the working class control the means of production? if the answer is no, like Venezuela, that means it is not a socialist country.If it is not socialist, that means it is capitalist. I do agree with you though that capitalism is bad
This is a common misconception-socialism is about working class controlling means of production.Maduro's Venezuela is bureaucratic dictatorial capitalism. that is where a dictator and their bureaucracy controls means of production. this is similar to Cuba, USSR, Mao China, which were also capitalist
sadly peoples lack of understanding about socialism made this surprising to people. There are two kinds of parties - reformists (greens, ALP, Liberal) who think they can create change when capitalists hold all real power (see K Rudd), and revolutionaries who can help working class.
I disagree I think it doesn't matter who the leader is under capitalism the rich get their way. There was an australian prime minister called Kevin Rudd who wanted mining billionaires to pay more tax. So the mining billionaires removed Rudd and replaced them with a new PM who wouldn't make them pay
ah ok now I am starting to understand! apologies misread you before. Your argument is that there has never been a non-racist dem candidate ever and that is why they were all uninspiring and lost. I agree! I'm a socialist who has never voted D or R because I believe we need to overthrow capitalism :)
I thought the same thing and posted after you but yours is better lmao
Qui Gon Jin Kenneedy - Whoa this goes mitochondrial levels are through the roof Obi Wan - Jesse what the fuck are you talking about Qui Gon Jin Kennedy - no trust me Obi Wan their mitochondrial levels - they must be the chosen one
you asked the question to matt what changed after 2012 - your answer is that dems stopped being racist. your answer is also that dems since then, all the non-racist ones, have been uncharismatic and boring and that's why they lost. this is your argument and it make no sense
just so im clear - your argument is dems used to be racist, and now they are not, which is good but they still lose, because none of the candidates are exciting, like they used to be when they were racist, but now they are all woke, which is good, but it makes them boring, which is bad
OK now I am really really really really confused. You said dems stopped being racist so Obama, Clinton etc were all racist. So you are saying dems get excited by racism. Dems stopped being racist after obama, so Clinton, Biden, Harris.
so your argument is dems stopped being racist... and then trump won 2 of 3 next elections. Sounds like a really great strategy dems should defs keep this up
interesting obama is a racist... how curious
thing about Prince though is that he only does bangers. Every album is one banger after another and he did this for decades.
amazing how many claim anything over than this to be greatest movie soundtrack of all time when Purple Rain exists
Obama also famously talked down to black people. See video people where Jessie Jackson says he wants to cut off obama nuts because of it - this video is quite famous so am surprised you dont remember
Obama famously refused to talk about race, until Jeremiah Wright forced him to and Obama gave the one speech on it.
no its true - see below tweet from Kamala Harris, who lost every national election they did - obama, who won every national election they did, did not do stuff like this. This is a very well known fact, but I'm assuming you were very young in 2000s so weren't aware of that.
x.com/KamalaHarris...
as another example see this tweet by Kamala Harris. Obama did not stuff like this and won. Harris did stuff like this and lost Democratic Primary and then lost presidential election to trump
Clinton when he was running for president in 1992 flew back to Arkansas to make sure a murderer who was functionally lobotomised by self inflected gunshot wound was killed by death penalty. Obama, when he run in 2008 deliberately never talked about race at all, until forced by Jeremiah Wright.
hi mr clippy you were annoying in the 90s and you are just as annoying now'
Hello - the dems won this race by 10 points. Have you revised your opinion as to whether Dems made a mistake in not nationalising this race???
Not surprised someone as fucking stupid about politics is a snowflake 😂
