Meeting Of The Tribes

@meetingofthetribes.bsky.social

Proud supporter of multiculturalism and I can spot conservative bullshit a mile away.

So we are getting drip fed stories about disgruntled ex One Nation members in the lead up to 4 Corners expose tomorrow night. Get ready for a massive attack on those who have left the one nation cult, and exposing the grubby behaviour of Hanson and Co on the way out. It’s going to get heavy. #auspol

I'm getting some quotes for work related expenses, and I'm seeing staggering price rises for hotels, insurance, airport parking, and car rentals. None of these services would be significantly impacted by fuel price spikes, so their price increases (well beyond CPI) are pure price gouging. #auspol.

The LNPs eduction plan involves a national flag for every school. With no real policies, they are literally raising a mindless patriotism flag up the pole to see how many people salute it. It's like they are trying to solve a "not being in govt" problem, instead of a real education problem #auspol

So RACV insurance "invites" me to renew my home and contents insurance with a premium rise of 150%. 2 points. 1. Get fucked 2. Inflation in Australia is nearly 100% caused by Trump's idiotic war and rampant profiteering by companies with very little exposure to fuel price increases. #auspol

Call me crazy, but maybe our journos should dig a little deeper and start discussing the impact of reduced immigration on the aged care, construction, tourism, tertiary eduction, research, and agricultural sectors. Focussing on a promised number instead of the consequences is fucking nuts. #auspol

One Nation will always go too far, and they may have reached a tipping point with Hanson's attack on the PM's dead mother, her attacks on Hastie, her party's disastrous Vic leader, and ON supporting Neo Nazis and vice versa. The question is, will this shitfuckery impact the next poll? #auspol

If Andrew Hastie was trapped in a burning building and needed someone to smash down a door with an axe, he'd be screwed if Angus Taylor was the only one outside. Every single Lib MP should be highly disturbed how weak Taylor's response is to Hanson's disgraceful attacks on a colleague. #auspol.

Hanson's behaviour toward Hastie isn't a shock because she's been an absolute grub for 30 years. Taylor's lack of response to Hanson's attack on a colleague shows exactly who he is: A scared, zero-conviction, weak man, who is happy to throw a colleague/ leadership rival under the bus. #auspol

The LNP's opposition to algorithm legislation is purely about gross political opportunism, and protecting a broken system that works for them. If that means racism, misogyny, misinformation, and harmful medical advice continues unabated, the LNP are happy for others to pay that price. #auspol

Hastie should be a hero to One Nation types. A big C religious conservative who fought for the country and believes in the rule of law. Hanson starts a culture war on Hastie and the ON followers now hate the guy with a disturbing fury. Hanson is a very dangerous cult leader. #auspol

Imagine if Labor preselected a candidate who had 3 drink driving convictions, a history of heavy drug use, and was ordered to repay a $13,500 govt grant. The One Nation fans wouldn’t be praising the candidate using terms like “honest”, “real” and “learnt from his mistakes”. #auspol

Australia has 3 nationally recognised flags and Angus Taylor wants to make burning one of them a criminal offence with a penalty of up to 1 year in prison. It’s safe to assume it’s still ok with him to burn the aboriginal and TSI flags. Should call him Angus Hanson from now on. #auspol
