Random Notes - Idle ThoughtsRandom Note — Ita’s pretzel logic and circular reasoning
Apart from the sheer effrontery and unmitigated gall, it takes a special kind of chutzpah, pretzel logic and twisted, circular reasoning for Ita Buttrose to accuse the government of “political interference” over a simple call for accountability in establishing a...
Random Note — Conservatives are sleepy and have no idea
Almost a hundred years before Andrew Breitbart made his observation that “politics is downstream of culture”, Italian communist, Antonio Gramsci understood the significance of culture when he further developed the Karl Marx concept of cultural hegemony and the idea...
Random Note — Education
As well as rigour and greater parental involvement Tony Abbott should have included in his list a more critical focus on curriculum versus pedagogy. That is, what is taught versus how it’s taught. It’s a very fine distinction, understood by many to mean the same...
