//"Do they want to go back to a nation state whose roots they believe to be based on white supremacy (Nazism) - or do they want... diversity?"

Answer-

Ah yes the obligatory Reductio Ad Hitlerum comment from the left designed to provoke anger and stop the debate.//

Wrong fallacy, halfwit. You see, I took the liberty of going back and examining Foxy's post... and it turns out that the word 'Nazism' does not appear within it. You just added that in yourself, so that you could accuse her of a reductio ad Hitlerum.

Unfortunately, adding the word Nazi in yourself amounts to standing up a straw man and your subsequent rebuttal of that position by reference to the reductio ad hitlerum fallacy is merely the knocking down of the straw man that you yourself erected. And Foxy's arguments passed through entirely unscathed because you've been too distracted metaphorically beating the hell out of a sack of straw to bother addressing any of her actual arguments.

Great debating, yappy Chihuahua. [sarcasm]

Shocker,

My apologies for not responding to you earlier.
I had used up my posting limit and had to wait.

I did not cut and paste the material from the link.

I had this information. There were many of us who
provided the author (to close the gaps in the historical
data) by providing documents to him and first person
accounts. We've all been acknowledged. He's also a
close personal friend whose work I've supported for
decades.

Canem Malum,

Lithuanians are well integrated into the Australian
society. The issues that did arise were from the local
Australians - who as all migrants have experienced -
did have problems with being accepted at first.

However as Walter Jona, then Victorian State Minister of
Immigration and Ethnic Affairs, stated:

"... the best thing about you Lithuanians is that on the
street you are indistinguisable from ordinary Australians...
and the worst thing...is there are not enough of you."

Dear Steele, Paul and Toni,

Thanks for all your comments.

Dear Steele,

I probably would go "gently into the night" so as not
to upset anybody. I take after my dad in this regard.
Although I'd probably ask for a shot of vodka (Grey Goose)
before I did. Because as Ogden Nash wrote:

"Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker." ;-)

Hi Foxy,

This is not the forum for apologies, its a political forum where at times heated debate will give way to scummy personal insult, and such like behaviour. Its unfortunate, but it happens, as I have said before simply apply the armadillo principle.

This thread is about a personal friend of mine, and I will strenuously defend her from the slanderous comments which has been forthcoming from some.

Pauletc,

Paul wrote: "I see you are not correcting your error concerning the DLP. "

I'm not sure which error Paul refers to but assume its the one where I pointed out that the DLP was disbanded in 1978 and then another organisation was reconstituted in Victoria under the same name later that same year. Paul helpfully noted my error there by pointing out that the DLP was disbanded in 1978 and then another organisation was reconstituted in Victoria under the same name later that same year.

" Nor are you providing evidence of your claim that there was some "ALP mythology" concerning Catholic Church instruction to its parishioners on their voting intentions at the 1964 federal election"

Well it is entirely possible that groups other than the ALP adhere to this myth but generally I've only heard it from Laborites. Since you've also fallen for the myth perhaps you could advise where you first heard it.

"Should I leave you wallowing in your extreme right delusions, or try and educate you. Your choice."

That's the only choice? How about the one where I demonstrate your errors (eg this one or the Pig Iron Bob error) and you kick and scream about being shown to be wrong, but in the future avoid making rookie errors of fact.
