The Greens have morphed into a party of activists that will most likely work their way into irrelevance. Good riddance.

Opposing mass immigration is a strong selling point in 2025.
I support strong immigration as its the only way to keep cost of living crisis down, it helps combat the age dependency problem leading to lower income taxes, keeps construction costs down long term, helps boost the wealth of current australians and is simply ethical to help move people from tin pot dictatorships to democracies.

Give me the party of high immigration.

People who think keeping a few (usually brown or black) immigrants out will magically bring down house prices, while not pulling the rug out from under our hospitals and aged care centres are delusional, looking for the simple, yet wrong, solution to a problem 40 years of neoliberalism in the making.

nevermind we've got 2020-21 as evidence that dropping migration doesn't lower house prices either

Correlation doesn't equal causation. Shares, crypto and property (risk asset classes) grew during covid.

To me, woke is defined by a false claim of victimhood.

The woke always look for a reason to align themselves to a victim group, it's their lifeblood.

Geezus some of the ridiculous stuff that gets regularly parroted in here.

The funny thing is in reality they don't actually care that much about any marginalised group anyway.

It's all about trying to look good to other woke people the Internet. That they don't even know.
 
From what I've been told by people paid to know, the global covid money printing is expected to keep asset prices soaring for years.
That and the concentration of wealth.

Yeah all those racists being called out for their racism getting all sensitive and playing the victim ..... I can't attack others any more.

It's their lifeblood. ;)

No group plays victim more than Christians.
 
... I don't know how to interpret this as anything other than being a rather racist statement, Vassp.
Gee Gethelred, should know me by now....I am not a hateful racist, I dont put my head in the sand and try to equalize everything, I love the beauty different races bring to this world. Being different is OK, I don't force equalisation on races and sexes. I say it's ok to be different and we should all be proud of that. it makes the world a more interesting place.

Did you think (respectfully) that it could be your thinking that needs to change?
Please think deeply about this before replying.
If you need me to clarify. Please say so.

I said the damage was done ages ago, why don't you accept the obvious? I did say lower immigration and i am sticking to it.
Oh were you being woke and talking about the first fleet?

Well, how else am I to take the post?

You're saying, pretty openly, that we've brought in too many people. We had just under 50% less people in 1975, so when you say that the ship is sailed here I'm reckoning you're probably talking post that time period. Then, you look at the biggest difference between those brought in before that - that being, in the main, white Europeans - and those after that - a far more open policy when it comes to who gets to come here and stay - and it becomes pretty obvious what is meant.

You would have to be quite singularly oblivious for the coincidence to fail to strike you that the second we began to let in people from other parts of the world than Europe, you decide that was when we needed to stop bringing people in.

With regards to?

Equality does NOT mean erasure of culture, Vassp. It means that every person, regardless of culture or gender, is equal before the law with exactly the same advantage without discrimination.

It means that you and I are of the exact same worth as sentient beings, regardless of what colour our skin is or what accent or language we employ or whether we choose to believe in 'higher powers' outside humanity or not.
