Universal Love TRTT Part 8: Random thoughts also sack Hinkley

[Butters Made Me Do It]

Schulzy, you're shaking your fist at an empty room

 

[raman]

What do you say to the indigenous candidates, members and supporters of the Libs and the Nats?

And there are many of them.

I too have many black friends.

 

[raman]

I did chuckle at the double-breasted chode on Sky News last night bemoaning the demise of Tony amidst ‘unprecedented personal attacks and nastiness’.

I was like, whaaaaAAAAA-

Tony was among the first of the one-note attack dogs, and fire was finally met with fire.

Actual. Pedophile. Priest. Apologist.

 

[Schulzenfest]

I'm not an expert on us politics but my understanding is the common person or the left in your example didn't choose Hillary any more than you or I chose scomo or shorten.

The party chooses who they put forward, or to be more precise a handful of people make the decision. Yeah?

Not in America. The rank and file choose their candidate for the Presidential election through the primaries. That's how a charlatan like Trump was able to manipulate his way to the Republican nomination, because enough registered Republicans voted for him over the other Republican candidates.

You'd never get a Trump type as the leader of a major party in Australia. The people don't have the same power to elect their party's leader and the major parties themselves would never allow it.

Australian politics is better now that Abbott is gone.

That’s ridiculous Ben.

edgie is saying any Lib or Lib voter is racist. I’m calling that out as a stupid statement.

 

[raman]

Yes and no. I’d take a pompous Catholic over a wacko happy clapper any day.

 

[Butters Made Me Do It]

Happy clappers are safer for me. Apparently we have a ‘cool’ Pope right now, and even he is on the record describing trans people as abominations to god

They are all f***ed. Why are they looking to deity to explain things instead of understanding science. But i guess it is so much easier to just say "it's God's will" instead of saying well i had better do something about that.

 

[raman]

That’s ridiculous Ben.

edgie is saying any Lib or Lib voter is racist. I’m calling that out as a stupid statement.

I’m just saying that pointing to minority candidates doesn’t do a thing to counter the argument that a conservative vote is a self-interested vote, which is what this particular part of the conversation was about.

Maybe I just like the Catholics because they have Latin and good art.

and most of them are ex-catholics and those are the best value of all.

 

[Butters Made Me Do It]

Unfair. All I get is Wicca and tumblrs of cartoon characters kissing each other

I’m only pointing out that edgies post from a few pages back is dumb.

On your point.

People are selfish.

Your “cool” Pope is a dick. He’s as bad as any of his predecessors.

But that is what makes some of sad the day after an election. Forgive those sensitive souls who still get disappointed and actually want people to be better.

Nothing wrong with self interest when it’s tempered with a broader conscience.

Both Schultzy and I have asked a direct question which is yet to be answered.

Open another bottle.

You feel better tomorrow

 

[raman]

Its a different measure for Liberals.

An awful candidate for Liberals would be a slightly effeminate centre-right milquetoast like Christopher Pyne

Is it weird that I miss him already.

Yes

You betcha.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Who the **** is the Pope?

 

[Butters Made Me Do It]

Are you crying or is it just the onion you bit into?

 

[manureid]

You should all.feel bad for talking about this shite still. Take 3 years off.
