Not if it factors a far reaching safety net for those who financially struggle, and significant entrenched libertarian rights.
TBH, I'm a unionist from way back. I was once the treasurer of a branch of the ALP.

When the struggle was economic/industrial, I was a lefty.

Now that it's overwhelmingly cultural, I'm firmly right wing.

The old unionists would be turning in their graves over current ALP policies.

When I joined the Labor Party, it contained the cream of the working class. But as I look about me now, all I see are the dregs of the middle class. When will you middle class perverts stop using the Labor Party as a cultural spittoon? – Kim Beazley Snr to an ALP State Conference, circa 1970.

That "spittoon" is now a urinal.

first and foremost i have to say i'm saddened by the whole episode, as she seem to be in a dark place at the moment, and recent events won't help.
it now looks like one of the figureheads of the #metoo movement, rose mcgowan has gotten on the wrong side of the lgbtqi+ movement (more than previously) and created a shit storm for the ages, or at least for those invested in twitter activism.


a few different angles-
pink news
transphobic rage
women's march attacks #metoo leader

to top it all off, the heckler is accused of sexual assault too, while rose's supposed inaction on victor salva is getting a good run. saying something in interview or on twitter one time is the new televangelist/anti-gay republican being caught in a seedy motel with a prostitute of their persuasion.

So the new liberal endorsed 'Black Panther' film represents a utopia surrounded by walls encompassing one ethnicity, one culture and one way of life. Aren't all these things what the left hates about the supposed ideological principles of the alt-right?

So, you're basing your analysis from a review from a youtube personality who didnt watch the film?

So again you can't counter the hypocrisy displayed.
Black people and white people aren't the same. The constant argument of "if white people did this everyone would be upset!!!!!" isn't hypocrisy, because of the underlying context.

Yes, a white-only movie wouldn't be celebrated.
Yes, a black-only movie is celebrated.

muh hurpurcurseeee

But this just trails back into the muh rurvurse racism argument, and around we go.

Those guys were badass and probably responsible for the last bit of major gun control in America when the sight of black dudes carrying shotguns so scared Ronald Rayguns that he banned open carry in California.

Ignore them long enough and they will tear each other down.
