Brisbane bogan, happy dad, permaculturalist & anarcho-communist wobbly with SEQLD-IWW.

Direct action gets the goods. The world needs more utopian thinking.

That's hilarious. Nice.

Dunno if you've tried it, but public transport in Brisbane is fairly shit.

And when buses don't turn up as per timetable - that counts as non-existent.

Cause I'm drunk and wanna go home, but don't wanna walk. The public transport is shit/non-existent. The taxi isn't nearby.

One example of repeated and systematic behaviour.

The issue is irrelevant - as long as it's popular and can be manipulated to build The Party.

And, The Party still has 'Democratic Centralism' as its fundamental organisational principle right?

Hmm, so any normal person would have gone ... 'yeah Castro is (or now was) a raging homophobe - let's be sensitive and not wave his face around a gay rights rally'.

There is something weird and cultish about not doing that.

Every protest/rally is a recruitment stage. The issue is irrelevant.

You sound offended by history. The past is how we came into the present.

I've down a lot of dirct action events, blockades, etc. There is absolutely a political cohort I no longer trust to work with.

I wish there was a down vote button.

But this does bring back memories of a homosexual equal rights rally I went to ages ago. Someone was selling Green Left Weekly with a massive front page of how great Castro and Cuba was.

I tried to explain how this wasn't appropriate ... eg Castro homophobic

Damn shame I was stuck in Queensland, at home that day.

So everyone is going to regret it in the morning?

Hang on, $100,000 between 41 indigenous organisations across the state?

That's about $2440 each.

Don't some LNP corporate fund-raising dinner parties cost around that to attend?

The entrails are still waiting on the pre-polls.

I mean ... it's kinda true. Australians generally are politically liberal.

It's just that "The Liberal Party" is actually freakishly far-right wing ... and not very liberal at all.

Back when I was as lad, we'd dream of fancy bike lanes with visual barriers.

All we had was dirt track for a footpath, if we were lucky.

Could they do a one week on, one week off, shared care arrangement?

Box ticking is what it's all about.

A good way to maintain the status quo, while getting everyone to wait around shuffling papers.

Ahh, maybe a something, something Federal response to Mabo and new Native Title claims on Federal land then.

Efficiently doing nothing until needed.

Is this an Albo/Labor Party thing?

Finally. The Deep State has taken over Trump's social media accounts.

Those are cool, cute and creepy. Awesome combo.

IDK ... maybe I want one as an egg cup at breakfast.
May 16, 2025 at 12:16 PM
So, what's the answer then?

Asking for a Breatharian friend.
May 16, 2025 at 10:57 AM
Yep.

There is a social/ethical problem when humanity is living in the time of the greatest wealth ever in human history.

And this shit is still an issue.

Power corrupts, always.
