*I don't recall ever seeing them advocating not eating meat.*

Actually not so Robert. To her credit, Gertrude is about the
only one out of the veggie/vegan movement, who accepts that
meat eating is not going to go away all of a sudden and that
local slaughter is better then live exports, in her opinion.

The way I recall it, amongst the many posts, is that she
has admitted to being a closet veggie, wishing us farmers
would grow halal vegetables instead of meat. The plan is
to open a chain of halal veggie burger restaurants and then
show people videos of what goes on inside meatworks, to
boost her sales and put them off meat.

She has forgotten of course that the waft of my " Yabby's
Yummy Lamb Burgers" will drift past their noses and
they will feel compelled to throw her video in the rubbish
bin :)

people should be worrying how much it costs to detain them...absolutely ridiculous and outrageous

Almost word for word the same as my e mail, deleted instantly but if you want to believe that trash you can.
It is so clearly lies and so clearly from extremists right and left that I found it hard to see anyone thought it was true.
Well nearly any one.

What is your problem with migrants and refugees? WE ARE GOOD PEOPLE!

AS,
I didn't get the feeling that PALE is against migrants & refugees ? My perception is that he's merely drawing attention to the much denied fact that there are people in this country who, after working 40 & more years receive less attention & support than those who arrived here only recently. Don't get the idea that pointing out a fact means that you dislike somebody. People must pull their head out of the sand & learn to accept facts. I for one do not appreciate that doing nothing can earn someone many generous benefits funded in part by me. There's one hell of a difference between helping someone in need & handing out indiscriminately to those not in need. If you feel it's ok that your tax Dollar is morally misused then fine but it's not ok by me.

Belly,
do you find it acceptable that non-citizens of Australia should receive benefits denied to citizens ? Do you consider it morally right that non-citizens should receive education provided by taxpayers but denied to citizens ? Do you think it moral that someone doing literally nothing all day is provided a $600,00.00 house for $50 a week & someone who works can not even gain entitlement for a housing loan ? I think these arguments fit into the message PALE put forward. It has absolutely nothing to do with liking or disliking someone. It's the imbalance that's the core of the issue.

Individual,

I cannot help but be impressed by the way you realise that the truth consists of things that *you want to believe* are true, and don't get distracted by things that are *actually* true.

Did you know the government rates refugees in order of blackness? Very black refugees, like people from the Sudan and stuff, get up to $1,000,000 a year and aobut $6,000 a week (tax free) a house and full Austudy for all their kids and — get this — their kids' kids. I couldn't believe this when I first heard it. So unfair. And also their medicare extends to witch doctors. Can you believe that?

You wouldn't read about it. Literally.
