    Of course I do. Dutton and Abbott are from what the centre-right? They think people on Centrelink are all cheats and bludgers. Robodebt was a great idea to taint all with the same brush. They call you woke because you believe people who are in the minority should not be given assistance to enable them to be on a level playing field. They don’t believe people in the minority are at a disadvantage to begin with. I was born legally blind. I was bullied all my life because of my appearance. I had to suffer at school because I was expected to fit into the school’s way of doing things which catered to the majority. Yet I was in all humility one of the smartest kids at school. I should have done better but was disadvantaged due to my eyesight. Those with less interest in school work had all the advantages and resources which went to waste. I live in a world now where everything is geared towards people with normal vision or vision that can be corrected by glasses. In other words, I know what it’s like to live in the minority. I have a child on the spectrum also. He received so much more help at school than I ever did because so-called wokeness actually helped him.

    As far as moderate Liberal values go, I believe in people being given the opportunity to set out on their own course. I’m a firm supporter of small business and small enterprise.

      You believe guys like Mr Abbott and Mr Dutton think people on Centrelink are all cheats and bludgers? And that they don't recognise disadvantage in others? Geez that's getting into PC61 and Ism22 crazy territory. Anyway...

      Congrats on everything you've achieved in life despite all the hurdles, you can be justifiably proud of yourself and your family.

      I will leave you in peace.

        I believe that a lot of those who identify themselves as right these days also identify as anti-woke. They certainly use the woke term to deride anyone who’s too soft on what THEY classify as woke issues, therefore one can only deduce all this ‘wokeness’ gets up their nose. To me it’s not woke. It’s common decency.

        Politics has changed for the worse the past 20 years. We should not be labelling helping the disadvantaged as woke, which is in essence a derogatory term.

        My father was always a LNP voter. He also went into small business for s small period. I genuinely was a swinging voter for a long time. Then all this anti-woke nonsense became the dividing line which the right used to separate people. It’s ridiculous and I hate it immensely. Yes hate.

        If I sound like Paddo and ism, so be it.

          I am giving our newest poster a run down on another as he didn’t understand why he was attacked by him when he quoted me after I quoted him.

            This is a Scandalous accusation which you have zero demonstrable proof of. I do not understand why it is a new poster cannot join the forum without others making such accusations

              Ooooor... Vlad Putin and some bankrupt property tycoon's son who needed to be bailed out by Putin because he couldn't even manage to collect rents from a multi-billion dollar property empire he inherited?

              The bankrupt buffoon and ex-KGB spy (whose dream is to re-'unite' the Soviet Union) are mighty tempting but I'm gonna go with the other mob.

                    Who are these disadvantaged though? - Noting AUS has a very generous Social Services/Security System compared to a lot of developed countries

                    You mentioned on another post that Corporations and Business are being helped - Not sure how they are being helped and by whom?

                    Woke - AUS has legislation covering all of these areas though. What areas are not legislated for?

                        I was amazed at your having ten siblings Sal. Mum must have been superwoman, I found two trying. But the Child Endowment payments were quite generous which would have helped enormously. I think you'll find that Labor-on initiated those payments. No wonder you had a top of the range Valiant. Must have been the envy of the street. Or did you have no neighbours, living on acreage? Small wonder that you were so defensive of the Lion of Bligh St - gotta make a living eh? All on the public tit like those teachers who've got it so good.

                        11 kids? Sounds Catholic and that explains a great deal. I'm still calling Opus Dei.

                            Anti-immigration immigrants are a personal favourite of mine. Like those drivers who want to be let in traffic but refuse to do the same for other drivers.

                            What’s your background Bar’ron?

                              I’m on ignore? Is there a way to tell?
                              They’re not missing much from me I spose.

                                Not sure how to check ACM. I can’t be 100% certain of course but pretty sure it’s been said that you are apparently Paddo. As is AW and Voods. So is JFC. As I took sides with these posters against the bizarre claims, despite otherwise showing support most other times over many years, I’m on that list too. I tried to explain that you’re all different people but apparently you’re one person with multiple alts.
