The Greens

[SBD Gonzalez]

No politicians are morally good.

They are all power hungry lying conniving campaigners.

It's not that hard to be be morally better than them.


It means look at the people who get triggered by anyone calling out political parties and their politicians.

Then you know you're dealing with a bootlicker

What a weird world you inhabit.

Seriously, which is more important? You thinking I'm "triggered" by you "calling out" a political party, or you believing that politicians claiming they're morally good is worse than politicians actually being good or bad?

The weird bit is you responding to me in the first place.

 

[Bostonian]

So you actually have no problem with all the corruption and dodginess that’s going down?

But instead find fault in people calling out such bad behaviour and expelling members for committing dodgy acts?

Greens were the ones pushing for a federal integrity body. That’s stands to reason they want corruption out of politics that includes within their own party.

Oh please, these Greens are shit lord ideologues who waste money as an example at local council levels to push their agenda driven garbage that has sweet FA to do with what people want their rates spent on.

These dodgy campaigners don't want to make a town or city better, they want to push their bullshit politics.

Thank **** at the last local council elections where I live these tools failed to get a single person onto the council despite spending far more than any other group did to get them elected.

This is such a weird hill to die on. You're attempting frame yourself as apolitical, yet your example of the poor quality of politicians is the ,(honestly, barely) progressive party that expels members for poor behaviour, rather than the one that has repeatedly covered up for it.

Seems like a pretty weird choice to make.

Showing compassion and empathy for people is such a problem to some campaigners.

“Life becomes burdensome” he says as he supposedly nails it.

Who are the real snowflakes?

If you seriously can't see the difference between wokeness and empathy you are truly on a different planet with no ability for comprehension.

This thread is about woke clowns.

Nothing typifies woke clowns better than Greens voters.

...right, but in talking about poor behaviour of politicians, of the Australian parties, you chose the worst of the three largest parties to chip for it.

No I didn't. I chose the biggest hypocrites of the lot.

See the best thing about conservative voters is their conservative ways. They are far more likely to keep their political views to themselves than think everyone else around them needs to hear it.

That's excellent, because the majority of people don't want to hear their views.

Just like the majority of people don't want to hear these woke clowns views either.

Nor listen to their virtue signalling.

Alan Jones was well known for his shy and retiring nature.

 

[JustaBattler]

How are the Greens 'progressive' ? What is 'progreessive'?

Since when did one particular ideological agenda 'own' empathy and care'?

Why is everything so polar and extreme?

Who stole the 'liberal' from the Liberal Party?

Since when were landlords and rent seekers allowed ot bnecome the leaders of the Labor Party and Prime ministers?

Most dialogue these days is just to and fro screeching and ranting and nonsense.

Well, that's one way to dissociate from reality.

Greens have their policies available on their website. Lots to do with ecological stability and helping out the less fortunate.

Something that would be a welcome change at any level of politics.

Local council are hotbeds of corruption and funnelling money into their and their mates pockets. Money actually being spent for the town would be a good change.

That’s not to say the greens are perfect but they’d do a much better job than the current lib/lab duopoly.

That conservative viewpoint that’s always kept quiet.

It’s only mentioned in every paper, on every channel on TV and radio, all over social media, a lot of podcasts, in politics.

Not to mention everytime a minority demographic is in a TV show, video game, movie, or just receive acknowledgement that they exist people come crawling out to scream “woke”

Julia Gillard’s royal commission into institutional responses to child sexual abuse holds the record for the most popular initiative by any Australian politician since WWII. Soon after its announcement, polls showed it had an approval rating in excess of a whopping 90%. No other action by a political party comes close.

Now, the Greens were calling for just such an enquiry for seven long years before Gillard’s announcement.

How many lives might have been saved if the dinosaurs in Labor or the Coalition had got off their fat arses sooner?

But more important to you than the actual facts, is asserting without substance that one group of people claims to be morally better.

All about the feels, huh?

This latest conversation about the 'optics' of the Greens (or in fact lab/lib) is an excellent example of the manipulation by the media to drive click bait.

The claim that the Greens claim to be morally superior (or their voters) is not them claiming so, it's the media portraying it that way.

Has anyone seen any Greens polly claiming to be morally superior? No, it's the media painting the impression of, they don't even claim it themselves, but then it's exacerbated on social media (and msm) by fringe minded people and then everyone thinks this is an everyone view.

Same at the other end of the spectrum

The fringe arguments are just that, about fringe views.

What Bostonian says that, to paraphrase, 'most people don't wanna hear about their conservative thoughts' has element of truth.

Most people don't really give a shit about fringe views, but it's all over the media and sensationalized to the hilt that would have Jan and Joe public believe that this is a 'majority' view. It isn't.

This isn't agenda driven by the media btw, it is purely to drive news by hyperbole, therefore revenue. The agenda is fringe minded phuqwits taking msm reporting, gobbling it up and throwing their toys from the roof tops.

'Breaking news, old white man donates $1000 to indigenous community, this is a good thing' < this probably happens all the time but msm ain't gonna report on it, doesn't sell. You might see stories of individuals on social media doing good things like this, but it doesn't gain attention.

It's all so terribly internet.

There is no Liberal or Labor Party and hasnt been since Howard tarted the landordification of Australia and the great con. Today children and future generations of Australia have a Prime Minister who collects houses and charges rents to look up to, same as that other 'politician' Dutton and all their fellow 'party' members - wot a bunch of slimey rent seekers all of them. Oh and the offset is a bunch of inner city centered idjots having stolen the term 'green' - because we all know 'green' is a nice warmn fuzzy colour that everyone can relate too..when they wish to virtue signal being empathetic and caring...

wot a load of nonsense.

I envy you, because I've been in the presence of plenty of conservatives blathering on about their views on politics, issues and the world in general without being invited to do so.

Just like the majority of people don't want to hear these woke clowns views either.

Nor listen to their virtue signalling.

Are they doing it to your face? Because if it's online or in the news, you don't have to listen. In person it's different as sometimes one can't escape or doesn't want to be rude.
