It’s unreal isn’t it

Even the poli board on here is ****ing hilarious

What?? Link please!

When those tariffs hit every US company is going to pass on the costs.

This could affect us.

We dig shit out of the ground and sell it to china and mining makes a big part of our 3rd world style economy. Having to deal with bullshit out of the worlds largest economy is not ideal.

And that’s the USA’s problem because?. Trump uses that bombastic approach as an opening gambit. If it has in the past helped him make other deals then great.

Frankly it amazes and bemuses me that Australian’s and others think that the US owes you a living. The presidents elected to serve the American people, how would you like it if Albo put other countries interests first ?.

Anyway I’ve been worried about my kids future leading into this election and I honestly think we’ve had a massive win, I’m going to enjoy it tonight.

I’d wondered if I’d ever return to the US, now I’m sure I will and my family there is over the moon about his win.

We are both in Australia and we are both part of the Australian economy.

Every US president election has ramifications on the world, and it has ramifications on Australia.

If you are worried about your kids future then why support the anti renewables candidate?

Which renewables solve the “issue” in your opinion?
I haven’t seen a decent solution put forward, nuclear too expensive they say, wind and solar pretty poor options, don’t know much about hydro

We have a lot of sun, a lot of wind and a lot of waves (tidal)

But great deflection champ .

Internally in the USA 95% of things won't change, Corporations and Billionaires will run rampant, wages will remain low, illegal immigrants will still be let in (they are good for profits and make shares go up), Military industrial complex will still rule the USA.

If trade with china and the USA becomes hard, this nation needs to think of ramifications for us, and Climate is also a big issue.

We live in a hot and dry place, I sure as shit dont want this nation to become hotter and dryer.

Mate seriously China and India and developing nations, wake the xxxx up. If it was the issue of our age would they get to sit it out ?. Then of course there’s the small matter of our impact and why anyone would destroy our economy for no reason.

kek it was not buddy.

Renewables will solve one part of cost of living.

CSIRO report confirms renewables still cheapest new-build power in Australia

Solar photovoltaics (PV) and wind continue to be the cheapest sources of new electricity generation capacity in Australia, even when the integration costs of renewables are included, according to the final 2020-21 GenCost Report, released today.

www.csiro.au

Not to mention it would mean diversifying our economy (which is badly needed)

China is going gangbusters in renewable tech.

They sure as shit dont want smoggy cities anymore.

So which route is the answer in your opinion, Duplo?

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

And the USA needs an actual Social Democratic candidate, no more neoliberal status quo (see Hildog and Harris)

Time to ditch liberalism democrats and become socdems.

Solar, Wind and tidal.

Nuclear would have been ideal if it was 1984, the start up costs are just too damn high.

And what is your plan re: disposing/recycling the turbines and panels once their short lifespan has reached the end?

 

[Mr Clunk]

I don't know if he intended to, but Trump unearthed a political superstar in Vance

The guy will face anyone with a calm smile and absolutely dismantle them, honest or not

Even effortlessly getting around the whole comparing Trump to a Nazi regime, is quite astonishing

Meanwhile, Tampon Tim absolutely crumbled facing the music

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

This is where we invest in innovation to recycle them.

Since you asked a disingenuous question you best get one back

What is your plan for all the climate immigrants?
What is the plan to save the world if it becomes hotter?
What is the plan to save insects?

Was not disingenuous actually, may have caught you at an emotional moment.

I still haven’t heard any compelling cases. Investing and crossing our fingers we can magically make 200m turbines disappear isn’t a plan to me. Maybe we cut windows out and place climate immigrants inside?

Save the world? I’d never be so arrogant to suggest we can make the slightest difference. Air quality would be more my focus.

Re: insects I’d stop governments burning bees under the guise of disease control, and I certainly wouldn’t be eating the crickets.

I ate a lot of shrooms after the 09 GF to try and erase that reality. Got lost in Brunswick, where ever house turned into an identical doll house, started freaking out, then I stumbled upon a giant rock with a compass on it and started pissing myself laughing

I have four kids all with multiple degrees as I often remind them you think for yourself and where possible do your own research.

My 12 Year old son's friend texted him tonight saying that a) his Mum is crying because Trump won and b) America will no longer be a democracy

I watched Trump's acceptance speech with both my boys this evening, in an effort to just take some of the bullshit hysteria away. They were laughing pretty hard when he was talking about Elon's rocket. I think it helped them see he's not Hitler.

I agree though mate... I always tell my kids to research stuff themselves. What a surreal world they're growing up in.
