    Labors treatment of refugees is what “radicalised” my politics way back in the day. It was fucking evil then, and it’s fucking evil now

      If you wouldn’t have said the political party, I would have taken you seriously.

      Dont care if it is X or Y, all of them can go fck themselves.

        I mentioned the party, because up until that point in my life, I saw Labor as the “good guys”. Realising that they specfically were willing to actively hurt people and fuck over the powerless for political gain had meaning to me, because up until that point, I was invested in them. I already knew it about the Liberals, but I hadn’t had to confront that truth with Labor, and given that the system is effectively a two party system, it was the understanding that both sides fucking suck that disenfranchised me.

        And it’s worth pointing out, I’m talking about the 90’s here. This all happened a long time ago, when I was younger and more naive about politics.

        The fact that the same shit is still happening…

            What the fuck?

            In what world do you think me, of all people, is secretly stanning for the queen of bigots?
