Of course, all lives matter, equally, no more and most certainly no less.

Morrison's prompt response to the Coronavirus - when it appeared (how wise we all are, after the event) that it could sweep across the country, claiming thousands of lives. - saved those thousands of lives. Lives of old people and lives of young people - all equal.

Meanwhile in the US, the Delays of Pussy Man have cost tens of thousands of lives. Don't American lives matter ? Of course, as much as anybody else's. But not to our incredibly brave warriors back here, safe in their caves.

And now the number of new cases in the US is rising rapidly in Texas and Florida. But Pussy man will be okay, he's taken chloroquine and he still hasn't got the virus, so it must work. Add in his notion that, if you don't test, you won't get so many cases and I would hesitate to ask a child psychologist at what level of thinking he/she would class that as ? A six-year-old's ? Cover your eyes and the boogeyman disappears ?

Still our resident morons are stuck with him, at least until November.

BTT: Yes, of course, 'cancel culture' is an affront to genuine debate. Paul Kelly has a great article on this in today's Australian, which our resident morons won't read because Kelly is obviously a communist, like Murdoch.

Of course, discussion presupposes differences - of opinion. There are probably no two people who contribute to OLO who have exactly the same opinions. And that's how it should be. Well, it's going to be regardless.

SO LET'S CANCEL 'CANCEL CULTURE' ! NOW !

*...We are witnessing the cowardice of liberal democracies' elites. They need to take on the cancel culture head on. And fight to win...*

Unfortunately "they are the cancel culture" movement...they are it!
Nothing short of a civil war will destroy them and their agenda.

First it was endless weeping and wailing for the poor downtrodden homosexuals. Onwards ever onwards they screeched and screamed from every roof top, until the majority tired of their nonsense, and rolled over to it, simply our of boredom, not from empathy.

What do we hear of gay rights now? Not a *f* whisper!
Can we conclude from that, the only discrimination that ever mattered to them, was to decimate the good that a marriage is to heterosexual women, constituting the vast majority of the population, and contaminating the process with filth.

Now it's on to black lives matter. The same bunch of homosexuals and assorted misfits and hangers-oners, now proceeding to educate us further, that now homosexuals are happy with the damage the stench of their twisted nonsense has reeked on the the useful people in the society they intend to destroy, they will further the social vandalism until we all dwell literally, in the ashes of the past.

As if they know better, when actually, it's painfully obvious they don't!

When peaceful protest is hijacked by opportunistic criminal looters and arsonists, it can hardly be blamed on those peacefully protesting, as is their right!

TWhen those in positions of power send their armed support base into the streets, to confront peaceful protest with armed violence and vehicles used as lethal weapons? One wonders where this (red-neck) commentary is coming from? Completely false premise!

Next time mate, try talking from a lot higher up!

Dan,

How has homosexuality stuffed Australia? Please explain.

I actually think worrying about what a minority of people do in their own private lives, and hardly threatening anyone, is not an issue of concern.

As for those seeking to change the name of a beer, and even the name of Victoria, get a life. All this will do is piss most Australians off.

Chris is determined to put the mockers on Morrison. When people with his views praise somebody who is supposed to be centre right, all is lost. There is nowhere for conservatives to go. Morrison is not a political conservative; he is just a social conservative as most Australians are, irrespective of what side they vote for. He is also dead set on wrecking Australian society with mass immigration, turning us into a low productivity, coolie economy. Relying on immigration in a developed country is insane, particularly when the immigrants come from the Third World.

I often say that Australia is rooted. Crude, but the truth in a few words. We no longer, if we ever did, have a balance, or a choice, in who runs the country. The Coalition has been shifting left since John Howard, and has just about aligned itself with Labor on most things, particularly with Morrison (yep, even compared with Turnbull). It might not worry most Australians as much as it does me, but we will never know, unless someone with better personal and social skills than Cory Bernadi puts up his or her hand.

It's tragic to watch Australia being trashed by self-serving idiots.

Ok, tell me how Australia will proper with your exclusionary attitude.

Asians should purchase our products, but we really dont like you.
Is that what you are saying?

And those on the Left should go away, and say nothing. According to your like, they are all scum, communist and idiots.

That sentiment is severely flawed, and why Howard and Sco Mo will never adhere to your views. They too are childen of a dynamic culture that learns from its past and tries to find a middle ground that celebrates our achievments and addresses wrongs.

I find it insulting that you denigrate immigrants that are not your kind. They also have conservative views amongst them, as well as a lot with genius and a great work ethic.

Why are your kind unwilling to have faith in our way of life and liberal democracy to understand how we can still progress?

Sadly, there are a lot of sooks like you, but not enough to influence much really. YOu can just sit back and whinge while Australia evolves.

Get used to it. The Australaia of the 1950s has gone forever.

And I say thank God for that.
