Pauline Hanson announced today that Albanese's badly flawed hate Bill is dead in the water. Let's hope she is right, as pretty much everything else she has said has turned out to be right.

“Albanese has run out of friends”, she says. His time in office is defined by the Bondi atrocity. He has allowed antisemitism to go unchallenged, and encouraged it by recognising (non-existent) Palestine.

The awful Bill represents:

. Albanese's incompetence
. It is unnecessary
. It is dangerous
. It is divisive (Division is Albanese's brand)
. It is ineffective

As for the uninformed crack on the video of Albanese dancing around in a Nazi uniform, I'm not saying he is Nazi (ask the person responsible for the clip if he does suggest that) and the National Socialists are not, were never, "right wing". Only people who don't read very much, and who rely on AI, believe that they Nazis are right wing. The neo variety are just a bunch of ratbags, too few to do any real harm, compared with the Left and their Islamic mates, who were made for each other.

ttbn,

The "National socialists therefore left wing" line is a basic category error. The Nazi's weren't anymore left-wing than the DPKR is democratic. Political ideology isn't determined by what movements call themselves. It's determined by what they believe and do.

By every serious criterion, Nazism was far-right: ultranationalist, racially hierarchical, anti-egalitarian, anti-Marxist, anti-democratic, and violently hostile to the left.

The Nazis didn’t just disagree with the left, the left were the first on their hit list.

Socialist and communist parties were banned almost immediately, trade unions were smashed, left-wing politicians and organisers were jailed or killed, and Marxism was treated as a mortal enemy of the state. Private industry remained in place, but under strict authoritarian control in service of nationalist goals - which is the opposite of socialist economics.

This isn't controversial among historians. The idea that Nazism was "left wing" survives almost entirely in modern polemic, not scholarship.

And neo-Nazis today don't hide where they sit either. They oppose egalitarianism, multiculturalism, feminism, and the left itself. Calling them "left wing" doesn't clarify anything - it just inverts reality and makes you look self-conscious about what past right-wing dictatorships mean for modern conservatives (hint: nothing).

So yes, it's an own-goal.

Your robotic writing style reeks of Artificial Intelligence and leftist dogma. Your non-stop badgering of posters whose opinions/beliefs you dislike suggests you are a manic obsessive.

You are 100% negative. You have never agreed with anyone. You have never contributed a topic. You just like disagreeing with everyone.

Your phrase “basic category error” is straight out of wankerland: an attempt to make yourself seem smarter than everyone else. Have you been reading ‘W.nkernomics A Deep-Dive Into Workplace Bullsh.ttery’, by James Schoeffel and Charles Firth?

I don't know what DPKR stands for; but the use of acronyms is another trick used by bullsh.t artists trying to look smarter than they are.

The first people taken out by the Nazis were the Junkers. Hardly left wing.

There are left wing historians and right wing historians who tell different stories, and you would of course have gone with the ones that suit your bent. Past and present historians can not necessarily be trusted. They are human beings like the rest of us, and they have their own beliefs. You never provide references to back your opinions; and opinions are all you are left with without proof. Even if you provided references, which you never do, I could match them with others that provide the exact opposite information.

As for what you believe Nazis “oppose”: egalitarianism, multiculturalism, feminism, and the left itself”, well, I oppose (or rather don't believe in them) myself, and I am not a Nazi.

You've clearly never used AI then, ttbn.

//Your robotic writing style reeks of Artificial Intelligence and leftist dogma.//

You've clearly never used AI then, ttbn. You once pointed out it was recommending glue as a pizza topping, so how would it suddenly be producing coherent replies here?

I think you're improvising here.

You haven't defended the claim that Nazism was left wing. You've switched to personal abuse and then to "all historians are biased so nothing can be known". That's not rebuttal, it's abdication.

The Junkers weren't some early left-wing purge. They were conservative Prussian landowners and were mostly accommodated by the regime. The people who were smashed first, and systematically, were socialists, communists and trade unions. That isn't a matter of interpretation or "leftist historians", it's just what happened.

Saying "I oppose egalitarianism, multiculturalism, feminism and the left, but I'm not a Nazi" doesn't help your case, either. Nobody said holding those views automatically makes someone a Nazi. The point is just that this is the same patch of political ground Nazism came out of, which is why calling it left wing doesn't work.

You're free to dislike my tone, my words, or my disagreements. But name-calling doesn't change what Nazism was, who it targeted first, or where it sits on the political spectrum.

By the way, ttbn.

DPKR stands for Democratic People's Republic of Korea. It's North Korea.

There was no trick or attempt to look smarter there - everyone knows that.

Even you, I suspect.

Presumptuous as well irritating. I use AI quite often. It's the first thing that pops up on Google. And I have and use the Gemini app. Not that there's much point in telling you that. You are so “clear” on everything. You must be a delight to live with: if you have managed to get someone to live with you.

Can you show me where I said that AI recommended glue as a pizza topping? I would be surprised if I ever uttered the ‘pizza’, horrible greasy things that they are.

No. I didn't abuse historians as your substitution of my words suggests. I don't do abuse, except when I have my stomach turned enough by you to bother. And you do so like the victimhood role.

Your comment on the Junkers reinforces your reputation as an ignoramus. As does your idea that going after unions makes anyone a Nazi.

What is my “case” that isn't helped?

Finally, thank you so much for allowing me the freedom to dislike you and the rubbish you preach. You attract dislike like a turd attracts blowflies.
