Random Notes - Idle ThoughtsRandom Note โ The Issue Is Never The Issue
It was 1960โs activist and author of Rules for Radicals, Saul Alinsky who said, โ๐๐ก๐ ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ง๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐. ๐๐ก๐ ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐ฅ๐ฐ๐๐ฒ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ซ๐๐ฏ๐จ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐งโ When we start to view climate change through this prism, everything else comes into finer focus and makes sense.

Random Note โ The Courtesy Bus and The Sharing Economy
An analogy to understand the concept of The Sharing Economy is your typical suburban courtesy bus. When we see at your local RSL, bowlo or shopping cemntre, the term โcourtesy busโ which picks you up and drops you off, we all know and understand what itโs all about....
Random Note — The Decline Of The West
I benchmark the beginning of the decline of the West toย the Vietnam war. With the advent of television in the late 1950’s, it was the first war beamed into loungerooms across Australia and America and that is where it was lost. In the lounge rooms of the West. Not on the battlefield. The politicians came under scruitiny like never before.
Random Note โ Megyn Kelly, Bill Maher interview.
He doesnt realise that he comes across as your typical, oily lounge lizard or like the Charles Dickens character, the obsequious and unctuous Uriah Heep, slippinโ and slidinโ all over the place and like many, if not most on the left, totally ignorant of well chronicled facts and detail.
Random Note — Where is this place called Palestine? The UN are the new Romans with the same 2000 year old playbook.
What weโre dealing with here is the next phase of the โ๐๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐๐ซ ๐ญ๐จ, ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฌ๐๐โ meme, again just like the Romans itโs about erasing what exists with something that doesnโt exist.
Random Not — America. A Boiling Frog

Random Note – Oikophobia – The hatred of your country
How could an individual or group take all the advantages and benefits from the abundance of their own country with all that it offers in terms of material benefits, opportunity and freedom but then hold such a deep loathing, contempt and doubt about its legitimacy and what it stands for and what it has built from nothing?
Random Note – Fact Checking: Fakes, Frauds, Fonys, Shysters and Charlatans
Fact checking as a political device has been around since the mid to late 2000s and has been a very successful, North Korean, Orwelllian style Ministry of Truth project designed to add the weight, authority and gravitas of academe to buttress their arguments and debating points.

Climate: The Movie (The Cold Truth)
โThe whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.โ โย H.L. Mencken
