“Said nobody ever” - i had a plumber over here the other day and he told me he had just split up with his wife. I asked why and he said “she was the victim of woke ideology”

when the right talk about cancel culture, wokeness, and rigid ideologies of the left - it is either a bogey man or projection. it’s all a nonsense consoling myth

George Christiansen was eulogising the fact that Australia had become a “woke democracy” - it’s a ******* joke

I think there's equal hysteria on both extremes
 
You're struggling to stick to topic. Brand is not just calling out warmongers, he's associating them with the left exclusively, he's clickbait title and video thumbnail should easily make you understand this.

I think we're done because I've now made the same point the times but you choose to ignore it.

Do you think that's because every foreign conflict the US kicked off in in the last two Presidencies was under a centre- left President?

I like words to actually convey meaning - "political correctness", "woke", and "cancel culture" are empty signifiers - odd coming from a political faction that hates post modernism!! Also ironic that the right bang on about the death of Western Civilisation when the commodification and instrumentalisation of learning [which neo-liberalism accelerates] prevents anyone from really learning about it. There as some great autodidacts out there but lets face it, most accountants are unfamiliar with the pre Socratics, the works of Tiepolo or the music of Thomas Tallis

True.

They are just employing coercive behaviour and policies to use against people if they were hesitant or wouldn't get vaccinated.
Way off topic so I will finish with - how is that different to no jab no play that Morrison brought in? How is it different to rejecting transplant patients based on lifestyle? Licensing car drivers? The state's general monopoly on violence?

Off topic is what he's good at.
 
Etc etc.

Nobody is holding anybody down and forcing them to get vaccinated.
This is the biggest piece of misinformation on this site and is continually spread by you and others. You know that answer is disingenuous.

"You're not forced to get vaccinated, but you just can't leave your state, go to work, go to the bottle shop or go to a football game without doing so".

I would have not have been vaccinated if I wasn't forced to do so. And i can tell you I was forced to do so.

Well if Morrison came up with an idea then it's probably a moronic one.

Why not compare like for far more alike?

Was the flu injection ever mandatory nation wide?

Cause one is not be able to legally drive.

The other is likely homelessness or worse

(By the way - I am sure this is where I am supposed to whinge "here they all come to pile on" or something.)

Of course you can leave your state.

I dunno mate. Harden up.
 
I'm anti any collectivism ideology.
You don't call the police? Send your kids to school? Enjoy the benefits of a national defence force? Drive on public roads? Use a toilet attached to a sewage system?

And that's a bad thing?

You must live in a bubble if you haven't noticed there's plenty of liberal left leaning people starting to take issue with certain sections of the "left".

It's a bad thing yes. Oh no, did I just have to call you a bad guy!? Your fault, you prompted it.

Anti-left is an excuse for I don't want to vaccinate or stop from spreading lies or sickness. It follows rhetoric like vaccines don't stop spread (of course they do) but any sane logical person knows this, and not using political discourse to defend stupid, unscientific bad behaviour.


ANYWAY back to topic on how about how you were WRONG about Russell Brand, his last video was anti-left (coincidence?) as you've just admitted you are as such.

Those aren't examples of collectivism.

You just brought up all of the things people who believe in small government believe the government should be involved in.

Disliking the left and right is a very healthy thing.


Anti-left were all the Vietnamese and Cambodians who fled their countries when they faced severe persecution or death for being anti-left

But in your world they were the bad guys. Too funny.

How about I'm right and you can't get your tiny brain around the fact that people can hold different views that can be considered left or right but still hold a majority of views that lean one way.

What a myopic view you have of people's belief systems.

Has to be one or the other, can't be a mixture :drunk:

Anyone who knows me would know that I lean left, my views would at times even be considered extreme left. But some of the nonsense where people want to try and tear down others just because they find something offensive is bordering on ridiculous - no actually it has surpassed that - and there will be a swing in the other direction which is part of the reason you get idiots like Trump. I was listening to Bill Burr the other day (possibly on Rogan) and he made a comment something along the lines of I'm on the same side of the debate as these people and even I find it embarrassing. I mean when I saw people having a crack at Adele of all people last week because she said she is proud to be a woman and that is taken as some kind of attack on transexuals I mean seriously what are we doing here?

I can't help but think it's being played up by the media (ie big business) because they'd rather have us fighting each other in a culture war instead of fighting them in a class war. And unfortunately it's working because there are a large portion of people who are uneducated (uneducated in the context that you've referred to), vacuous morons.
