I don't think the government can be trusted with either of those things. Just look up the Hanford site.Lil devils x said:EDIT: Though you know it is odd that you think the government can be trusted with Nuclear reactors and waste but not with properly implementing and enforcing ethnostate promotion regulations. I would think arresting Nazis is a much simpler task.
Why? It's not even his election. He's not even American.Marik2 said:I do wish that lunatic would have sticked around for the 2020 election.
Yeah that was funny Lunatic and what his face Zontar were from other countries yet really interested in making sure the Republicans took office and hand waving the far right and alt right activities and screaming "matifa" at everything.Red Sentinel said:Why?

There are far-right and alt-right people here in Australia who talk about democrats being evil commie socialists and republicans being the heroic leaders that will lead us all to glory. That neither are things that exist here does not seem to dawn on them (well, republicans do, to a degree, but they're not a political party; they're a movement that want us to become independent from the Commonwealth).Jarrito3001 said:Yeah that was funny Lunatic and what his face Zontar were from other countries yet really interested in making sure the Republicans took office and hand waving the far right and alt right activities and screaming "matifa" at everything.
Maurice Newmann just had a piece printed stating that he thought QLD was going to become Venezuela in the near future.DarthCoercis said:There are far-right and alt-right people here in Australia who talk about democrats being evil commie socialists and republicans being the heroic leaders that will lead us all to glory.

I've seen Australian far-right groups post parts of the US's pledge of allegiance with just a couple of words changed as though it actually applies to or represents us, which is beyond moronic.
Not the Commonwealth, just from the Queen of Australia (and her other realms and territories) being the head of state. We can stay in the Commonwealth as long as we recognise her as the head of that. Tonga, for example, has it's own royal family (their king once had to drive off libertarians from an island they'd created, which sounds much more epic than it was), but is still a member of the Commonwealth.DarthCoercis said:(well, republicans do, to a degree, but they're not a political party; they're a movement that want us to become independent from the Commonwealth).
Eh, seen that sort of thing on both sides of politics, people copy and paste stuff from the US without checking if things are the same in the place where they live. C'mon. Especially if you are a far-right group that hates foreigners.DarthCoercis said:I've seen Australian far-right groups post parts of the US's pledge of allegiance with just a couple of words changed as though it actually applies to or represents us, which is beyond moronic.
Moronic is not a strong enough word. Like your own country does not have the problems you wish it had in your head to you adopt fake fight of another country. At this point I think these people are really just bored on top of just being dipshits mad that people of color, gays, women, and mimes or whatever group they don't like have the audacity to speak.DarthCoercis said:There are far-right and alt-right people here in Australia who talk about democrats being evil commie socialists and republicans being the heroic leaders that will lead us all to glory.

You're right. My apologies, I did not quite understand the difference. I'd thought that ditching the Queen as our head of state was hand-in-hand with leaving the commonwealth.Thaluikhain said:Not the Commonwealth, just from the Queen of Australia (and her other realms and territories) being the head of state.

Indeed. We have enough of our own issues, so importing fake ones from overseas makes less than no sense. People that're full of hate will adopt anything that gives them permission to be hateful, it seems.Jarrito3001 said:Moronic is not a strong enough word.

Not as entertaining as others for sure but I don't want my life feeling like a telenovela thats just arguing and gets nowhere
I've always liked a chance to get other points of view. I feel that it helps me better understand those I'm disagreeing with, and to better articulate my own case to them on their terms.trunkage said:Your willing to listen even if you have a different point of view.
