A Tasmanian Liberal conscience vote on transgender law reform will diffuse potential hate campaigns : Comments

By Rodney Croome, published 14/3/2019

A particularly nasty aspect of these rallies was how Liberal MPs sat in the front row applauding anti-gay speakers because the plan to decriminalise had been proposed by Labor and the Greens.

Dear AlanB.,

Some people tend to think in terms of general categories
if only to enable them to make sense of our world by
simplifying its complexity. Whilst others have a
distinctive set of traits, including conformity,
intolerance, and insecurity.

They tend to be anti-intellectual, and are disturbed by any
ambiguity in sexual or religious matters and they see the
world in very rigid and stereotyped terms.

Alan, I appreciate your comments and support.

Thank You.

Hahahahahahahahaha! Stop it, Foxy, you are killing me.

First you categorised "some people" by saying that such people think in general categories.

Then you stereotyped "others" by giving them what you see as their stereotypical traits, including "conformity", "intolerance"," insecurity" "anti Intellectual" "rigid" and "disturbed by any ambiguity in sexual or religious matters."

OK, fairs fair. If you are gunna stereotype me, then I will retaliate and stereotype you.

How about there are "some people " who really do think that they are morally and intellectually superior to everybody who does not belong to their tertiary educated cast? They have a tendency to make badly thought out statements which are contradictions in themselves? They have a compulsive psychological need to think they are the saviours of the world? They will seize upon any wacky cause that is not mainstream just to show how different they are, and also to display their social separation from the rest of their community, whom they despise for not appreciating their astounding intelligence? They reflexively seize the high moral ground in every argument without considering whether they are sky lighting themselves into perfect targets? They can only see the world in terms of oppressors and oppressed? They never stop attacking their own civilisation which they choose to live in?

This is the story of a small green farm, with a
LARGE pink problem.

The problem is a pig with attitude - but he's known as Grunter
because that's what he does!

He hates everything and everyone ...
He is overfed and over weight.

He is mad, bad, ANGRY, and sad.
(and dangerous to know on days with a "d" in them).

He has serious attitude ...

And shocking wind.

Yesterday he flattened the farmer, spat on the cat,
dunked the dog, catapulted the cow and mashed three-short
sighted mice into the mud.

The day before, he bit the badger, grabbed the goat
and chocked the chicks with one of his outbursts.

He ran AMOK in the muck, sat on the sheep and dropped something dirty on the duck!

You get the picture. Well this pig gets taught a lesson.
Don't be a Grunter - be nice of else ...

Nobody likes a "breath of foul air!."

If you want to read this explosive story - it's available
at your local library. It's by Mike Jolley and is highly
recommended for insecure people who have the compulsion
to stoop to personal insults on discussion forums.

Cheers.

To Foxy.

Sorry I missed your previous post on the preceding page, I was so amused by your last "stereotype" post, that I couldn't wait to refute it

Your last post was a very poor attempt to imitate my very effective way of demonstrating the absurdity of trying to advocate that tiny minorities should have the right to tell majorities what to do.

Your last post seems to advocate that "change" is always a good thing. That is complete rubbish. Change can be for the good or the bad. I even gave you four examples where political change was catastrophic for the welfare of entire nations. Whenever change is contemplated, it is usually when a previous system is malfunctioning to the extent that a majority of people begin to think that there may be a better way, and they submit scenarios and arguments as to why a new approach is better.

That has not happened with "transgender" rights. People who wish they were another sex to the one they were biologically born with, represent a microscopic proportion of the population. They can try to tell the rest of us that sex is "fluid" but the rest of us find that proposal more worthy of hilarity than serious discussion. But then we have people like yourself who, unchangingly always take the side of the minority against the majority.

By making "transgender" rights yet another crazy proposal of the loony left, you are in fact doing the right side of politics a great service. Because by identifying the left with the cause of "transgenders", who the overwhelming majority of people think are just nutters, you are displaying to the public just how crazy the left itself is.

Keep up the good work.

This is especially so when the left tries to use organisations such as the HREOC to force the majority to bow to the demands of a microscopic crazy minority. The public is sick of this, and that is one reason why the electorate is turning to the right.

LEGO,

You don't know anything about me. It appears that
I've hit a nerve. I do not wish to argue with
you - there's no point. My initial response
to Alan B., was not directed at you. Yet you
assumed it was and you've gone on to prove the
points I made.

Australia is not turning to the right as you claim.
Same sex marriage has been legislated. Young
people are demonstrating in our cities for climate
change action. Cardinal Pell one of the Catholic
Church's most powerful leaders has been tried and
found guilty by a jury of 12. MPs are leaving the
Liberal Party in droves. Labor was re-elected in Victoria
and so it goes. Change is happening all around us
whether you and I like it or not - is irrelevant.
It will continue despite what any of us may think.

I did not say that all change was good. Nor that all
people are good. It seems to me that your strawman
arguments are a sign of desperation or frustration.
Anyway, be that
as it may - I'll leave you to your disgruntlement.
Have a nice day.

Hi Foxy, you don't know anything about me either, but it did not stop you from publically stereotyping your opponents (of which I am one) to Aiden. And you did that after implying that stereotyping was a characteristic of right wing people. I hope you learned something, Foxy. Everybody stereotypes.

Australians did vote for homosexual "marriage", much to the surprise of the left and the homosexual community, who opposed the vote. It just goes to show how our successful our schools have been in indoctrinating the youngest generation, Hitler Youth style, into accepting this nonsense.

Which is exactly what happened with the school children's "strike" against Human Induced Climate Change. Nobody seriously believes that the kids thought it up themselves. They were indoctrinated into this false ideology, Hitler Youth style, and encouraged to go by the long haired men and short haired women of the education department.

Meanwhile, despite pouring ever more money into Education with no tangible benefits in terms of examination results, Liberal governments now know that money can not fix a system broken by left wing ideologues who are good at indoctrinating children with their political and social beliefs, they just can't teach them how to read, write, spell, or do simple sums. Even the poorly funded education systems of third world countries are doing better than Australian kids. Thank you again, socialism.

Yes the Victorian population (our most left wing electorate) voted in a Labor government again, a government which blows up power stations and got the whole state blacked out. I wonder how many Victorians, sitting in their blacked out homes, rued the day they ever voted for Labor? And every time some imported Sudanese attack Victorians and they complain, I say "what are you complaining about? You voted Labor, you deserve it.
