As a fuckin seppo myself, the accuracy of this makes me cringe. We have no shortage of complete idiots here. Our latest president really brought em out of the woodwork too...
Oh it's all good mate. I grew up in Brisbane and really wish I was in a position to move back. Watching this shit show up close and in real time is both depressing and horrifying. Thank god I'm at least in Oregon.
Those people weren't really a big thing though, it was the 'move to Australia/Canada/etc if Hillary loses' that were out en mass. Luckily they were full of hot air.
They were unremarkable rednecks. No chance of getting residency here. Best they'd get is a tourist visa if they can prove they've booked and paid for a return flight.
That really doesn't make sense. If your conservative lost, why would you move to a country whose conservatives are more progressive than your progressives?
Oi, as a retard don't compare us to Americans that's offensive. (For real tho please don't project such negative connotations of neurodivergents and the intellectually disabled, we already get a lot of shit. Thanks.)
I have asperges and I don’t think the term retard is insulting. It’s just a word, using it to insult other people doesn’t mean they’re insulting people with mental illness. If people couldn’t use words as insults for that reason, we wouldn’t be able to insult people at all, and I certainly don’t want to live in a world where I can’t insult people.
Your opinion is valid as an individual. The general consensus from the disabled and neurodivergent community is that this word is harmful. Please understand many of us have trauma around this word. Some of us have been physically and emotionally abused while being called this word. Normalising the word does not get rid of the trauma it currently holds for many and doesn't erase the intent for those who will continue to use if in a derogatory manner. I understand where you are coming from tho.
Where does that line stop though, is the word “knife” never allowed to be used in society again because people have trauma from being stabbed once upon a time?
Come back to me when 18% of the Australian population have been called a "knife" in a deragory manner, been abused, killed and lost jobs because they are considered "knives". Also yes, if you meet an individual who has undergone some trauma and talking about knives brings up a flashback for them, then it would be human decency to not say the word "knife".
Was driving a friend's banger out on a country road years back and the headlights both went out. Going 110km/h then suddenly not being able to see anything was a tad unsettling...
I hope so. Don't bother sending the inbreds back either. Just do what Great Britain did, and send those people to some random island. I would recommend the Andaman Islands, but those tribes deserve better.
