As a Labor person I really respected Natasha Stott Despoja during those times

I’m a member of the Labor Party but understand why you wouldn’t want to join a party. I joined Labor as a teenager during the Joh Bjelkie Peterson years in QLD. Have stayed loyal ever since due to QLD Labor generally doing what I think is best.

I think AOC is a different candidate in that she would more align with a progressive Australian Labor type of policies than Kamala. However I think the level of misogyny in the American electorate is at this stage hard to overcome

I think people are sick of the drama, some idiots voted for him because they thought he was funny & the more people attacked him the more those idiots doubled down. Now even many of those types are over it, that’s my thoughts anyway. Best wishes & good luck, hopefully he’ll end up in jail.

How could Trump ban it? Is it federal land? Excuse my ignorance on the matter, I’m from Australia

Keep telling yourself that. Keep projecting your moral purity whilst watching your neighbours being kidnapped & disappeared. You are just highlighting that your purity is collusion with fascism

The OP says Israel needs nobody, well all I’m saying is, if you need nobody stop being such scroungers of other peoples money. Grow up & stand on your own feet

you are so lame that it’s easy to trigger you into repeating racist tropes against Palestinians, forgetting you were meant to be cosplaying a leftist.

Yeah, like Jane Hume is a woman so she must be a moderate as well. The journalists in this country are fried.

What would be left of you stripped them off their ideological extremism? Labor is & always has been a centrist party Aus workers are overwhelmingly centrist & look for stability & certainty. The Libs win when they can drive fear & division. Too often Labor has fallen for their trap, Albo is smarter

Only an American would complete that assignment. Any worker in a civilised country would have just not bothered going. Sorry boss no cabs, can we reschedule?

Until Israel is kicked out of the Olympics I couldn’t care less about what happens there.

Don’t worry, the Greens in Australia are just as guilty

Of course you’ll stand by what you said about a person you knew nothing about to blame others you also know nothing about

Ok so good, it’s not the same conflict. Now do the Palestinians in the West Bank have a right to defend themselves? Yes or no?

BS, I’m in Australia & I knew exactly what MAGA was & is about. They all knew they just didn’t think it would happen to them

Not at all, it’s all part of the same conflict, does Israel have a right to defend itself? Yes. Do Palestinians have a right to defend themselves?

Do Palestinians have the right to defend themselves? Simple question, yes or no? I’m thinking specifically of Palestinians in the West Bank who are being attacked & murdered daily.
