Random Notes - Idle ThoughtsMelbourne kids form The Children’s Party to take on Canberra — The Herald Sun
Just what we need, more kiddies in Canberra. What we’re dealing with here are the intellectually and emotionally challenged sock puppet children of their equally intellectually and emotionally challenged parents. Note the all knowing, conceited, sneering and smug, down the nose posture.
New Shakespeare’s Globe chief promises far more diverse casting — The Guardian
The whole season will be 50:50 and that’s not just small parts played by women or small parts played by men. Across the season the body of work will be equal amounts for male or female. It will be gender blind, race blind, disability blind
America tears down its racist history, we ignore ours — Stan Grant, ABC Online
No original thinking here —- While playing the role of the all round, decent and reasonable, nice guy, Stan Grant is dog whistling whilst curating and fermenting trouble with this stuff about Captain Cooks statue.
This is how it starts and it will be interesting to watch how this unfolds in the next few weeks or months
Random Note #187,672 — Charlottesville and Robert E Lee statue — What the hell did they think was going to happen?
Trouble only arose this year when a high-minded activist council, after almost 100 years, decided that it was politically incorrect and should be removed. What did they think was going to happen? What if some future council wants to restore it? Or is it only the politically correct left that has a right to frame history how it sees fit and airbrush those aspects that they don’t line up or doesnn’t fit their narrative?
Muslim leader Keysar Trad wants Australian men to be allowed multiple wives — Daily Mail
Next cab off the rank perhaps? Slippery slope any one? And in multi culti Australia with so much diversity and inclusion, and where all cultures are equal, after gay marriage they’ll have a very strong moral case to have their special relationship recognised in law.
Can’t say we weren’t warned.
This is what an invasion looks like in real time
This is what an invasion looks like. This all started with the much celebrated Arab Spring over which the left and the misty eyed and misguided gushed, celebrated and welcomed.
Random Note #199,671 — Gay marriage and the linguistic hokey pokey
All the equality, protections, benefits and responsibilities being sought by the rainbow gestapo are already available under Civil Unions and although they may be well meaning, those people who seriously believe that this has anything to do with equality have not been paying attention and need to ease up on the useful idiot Kool-Aid.
Union and Labor Party links test GetUp! ‘independence’ — The Weekend Australia
Essentially what we’re dealing with with respect to GetUp is what’s known as an AstroTurf outfit. That is, an outfit, which like AstroTurf, is fake and pretends to be something other than what it actually is, in this case, a front for Labor and the unions — .”Was the motivation behind Shorten’s interest in GetUp! really to encourage independent community activism? Or was he a savvy, opportunist politician, keen to harness a nascent issues-based cause, and the enthusiasm it might generate among non-aligned millennials, to bolster his personal support? Either way, Shorten’s experience with GetUp points to lingering sensitivities for this organisation, now 12 years old but still batting away challenges to its credibility from critics who claim it is not independent and lacks life outside mainstream progressive parties.”

On Giving Michelle And Laurie A Degree — Andrew Bolt
The purse lipped, and condescending elite media class seriously do believe and see themselves as an omniscient priesthood. Unbelievable these people. Tump called them out in the US and we have the same sneering, morally narcissistic, puritanical, self basting caste here in Australia imbued with an infinite wisdom the rest of us can’t even begin to imagine. This is group think on steroids.
