ttbn said- If we didn't have so many lazy, useless Australians, we wouldn't need any migrants.

Answer- Some industries are becoming so dominated by toxic leftist foreign cultures that Anglo Australian's feel that they aren't accepted within the community. This can become an excuse for employers to demand higher immigration and to talk about a skills shortage. Smart politicians will create a skills shortage or other crises in order to justify certain actions.

Comment-
We need to target equal opportunity laws more- because they are a communist attempt to divide and conquer the Australian and the World community. DIE Diversity, Inclusiveness, Equality so called "anti-privilege propaganda"- as they say the harder you work as a culture the luckier you get. I don't see a problem with Anglos being privileged in their own country. DIE is a bigoted anti-culture ideology that will make people dependent on the dictator- and specifically targets Anglo ethnicity- classic big brother-ism- disenfranchising people from their own communities. If other cultures and ethnicities say that Anglo ethnicity is bad is one thing- when those of Anglo ethnicity commit ethnic suicide this is another thing. And puts our cultures children on the pyre of sacrifice. Who says who is the protected culture or identity group? It isn't you- it isn't achieved from a vote- it isn't democratic! Everyone has a right to protect their own interest, their own culture, their own ethnicity. But now this can get you marginalized but if you don't you'll be marginalized anyway. Now is the time to stand up for yourself. Whether you are young or old, man or woman, rich or poor, mother or father, smart or good with your hands- now is the time to stand up to the communist woke forces in your community- to protect your children from pedophile library and school sessions, protect yourself from political correctness, etc.

It's been said that communists use the shock troops of narcissism to destroy the fabric of society- in a similar way to the use of shock troops are used against armies battle lines.

The video by Mark Latham- Australia's Population Ponzi is good.
We can't compete against nations fifty times bigger than us such as India and China by big population strategies, free trade, and free immigration.

But we are capable of producing what we need to survive and prosper.

Of all the voices in the big Australia mosaic it's the woke that most infuriates.
After all Triguboff and Willcox just do what their ilk does: stick out their hands and demand more.
Entirely predictable.
But the Greens,The Guardian and their ilk (ignoring the hopelessly conflicted higher education sector) are in an ideal position to push back.
High octane population growth drives inequality and environmental decay to the moon-causes that should arouse their ire.
But no.
For some unfathomable reason progressives in this country draw the line at protecting the poor, the young and the disenfranchised if it comes at the cost of de facto open borders.
For an old codger like me it doesn't matter much in any direct sense but the implications for my kids, and their kids, are horrendous.
I shall not forgive.

Kimba07,
Well said ! When common sense still was still present in isolated pockets of humanity, the intellectuals got jittery & joined forces & successfully sent common sense packing & now look where we got to !

'Over 2005-06, John Howard near-doubled net migration. His opponent Kim Beazley caved.'

Missed statistical inflation in 2006, as did media etc. when the ABS UNPD defined NOM Net Overseas Migration was expanded to 12/16+ month residency sweeping up more students and backpackers then spiking population; explains post Covid spikes while now fastest (long term) growth is permanent population 70 years+, bravo?.

Tanton & Ehrlich's Malthusian fossil fuel supported ZPG ie. Rockefeller Bros. Fund (Exxon) of late '70s, also promoted the 'degrowth' or steady state economy movement, masquerading as environmental, to deflect from fossil fuels; greenwashing eugenics and fossil fuels.

Further, now increasingly rapid transition to renewables is allowing allowing economic growth and decline in emissions, breaking the link, if there ever was one?

The solution to pollution is less people not new technology according to Professor Patrick Deneen in his book "Why Liberalism Failed".
