Mr O,

I think Soot ran that past Jen, the girls and dear old mum before he said it.

Anyway, that women's libber and tieless campaigner for women's rights the crusty old far right Liberal Senator Eric Abetz is accused of 'slut-shaming' Brittany Higgins. Did it come from Labor, no, it came from Tasmanian ex-Liberal MP Sue Hickey. Like all the other Liberals, Abetz is in denial.

Ms Hickey said the conversation went: "[Senator Abetz went on about Higgins], 'As for that Higgins girl, anybody so disgustingly drunk who would sleep with anybody could have slept with one of our spies and put the security of the nation at risk.'"

On the Porter matter according to Hickey Abetz told her; "yes … but not to worry, the woman is dead and the law will protect him, (Porter)" What is Abetz saying yes to.

Mr O,

I think as the ScumO' media conference went down like a lead balloon yesterday, he should try and warm the media up before hand, maybe with a joke, something like this;

"You chicks wont get this, especially you blonds, but the blokes will get a laugh."

"How many Sheila's does it take to change a light bulb?"
....."None, a bloke has to do it for them!" ha, ha, ha wasn't that a ripper. Don't worry girls I've got a bag full of blond jokes to finish off with later, ya gonna be impressed!" ScumO' couldn't do any worse than he did yesterday.

Paul1405,

I think I just found Soot a second banana for his upcoming vaudeville act:

"Hubba hubba hubba! An LNP MP walks into Parliament with a blond in his arm . . . . . . . . . . . ."

I'll let you finish it off; we all know the punch line.

Paul1405,

I just found Soot a second second banana just in case the first second banana has to go on forever never come back sick leave.

I think Porters being exiled, as predicted.

In this male only (except for Foxy) OLO-Commenter forum. Why so few wommen commenters on OLO?

ABC, 3 April 2021 reports http://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-04-03/misogyny-anti-women-terrorism-extremist-groups-online/100031678

"...some experts are arguing that in a "MANosphere" of online anti-women groups, methods of communication and organisation are becoming more sophisticated.

At the more serious end of the spectrum, these experts say, are operators that must be seen and named as "extremist" or "terrorist" groups – particularly if anything is to be done to stop them.

A 'grooming' of young men online UK author Laura Bates has spent most of the last decade educating school children about sexism.

She says in the last few years she's noted an increasing sense of hostility, aggression and anger in boys' attitudes towards women, and argues online hate groups are to blame.

"There [is] a kind of radicalisation, a kind of grooming happening online," Ms Bates tells RN's Life Matters.

She describes "a very gradual, slippery process" whereby young men's problems and insecurities are co-opted by organised online extremist groups.

In order to connect to young men, the groups cite real-world problems men are dealing with, such as workplace injuries, cancer, mental health and suicide.

But instead of tackling those issues, the groups reinforce "the stereotypes that are actually causing them", Ms Bates says.

"So they double down on the idea that men have to be tough and manly, that they have to be strong, not vulnerable, that they shouldn't share emotions, that exerting power and control over women and over societies is what it means to be a real man."

A woman with long fair hair and blue jacket stands smiling, turning side-on.

Ms Bates says anti-women rhetoric is so pervasive online that it's normalised.

In any other case, where somebody goes out and attacks a specific demographic group with the intent of causing enormous harm and fear in that group because of radicalisation, because of the fact that they've been explicitly groomed to hate that group, we would describe it as a form of terrorism," Ms Bates says..."
