From time to time, I ask myself if Trump is dead. I pause and listen for a moment, hoping to hear the sound of celebrations like midnight at New Year's only louder. I don't, and I know that, unfortunately, Trump still lives.
I still haven't decided what track to play in the event - suggestions?

You are obviously a religious bigot. Whether you believe the holy writings up my arse or not, Israel is mentioned in there hundreds of times.
I hope you live long enough to see the destruction of Israel and the prosecution of all those involved in genocide.

Non sequiter, and deceitful. But since you asked, my grandmother bought plastic plates manufactured in Palestine during or just after WWII.
So shut the fuck up, you genocidal denying motherf***er b***h.

I disagree.
Israel is a criminal state, a rogue nuclear state, an apartheid state engaged in genocide.
A prosecution of Israel and the dismantling of both the state and the army would lead to more peace, whereas leaving it armed ensures it will engage in more crimes and war.

Just telling it like it is for the local and international readers.
I was talking with another immigrant, and before we came to Australia, we were both aware of the Indigenous population, but when we came, we saw nothing, not even a symbolic presence. Decades later, there is more to see.

Other electoral systems allow people to quote the electoral act without being censored (see Albert Langer) and don't discriminate based on religious practices.
I understand that Australians need to feel superior about something because they are just a client state of some empire.

Except for religions that proclaim themselves to be stupid and delusional, e.g. Pastafarians, Church of the SubGenius, Jedi and Dada aka Christ Inc., because they are honestly stupid and delusional, which is fun. (Church of the SubGenius will deprogram you if you believe them.)

RMIT drops misconduct case against student who accused university of being ‘complicit in Gaza genocide’ Exclusive: Move comes after Guardian Australia revealed Gemma Seymour was facing potential suspension over video criticising RMIT’s ties to weapons companies

RMIT drops misconduct case against student who accused university of being ‘complicit in Gaza genocide’ | Australian universities | The Guardian share.google/8XVR96j4qZ8K.... Well done Gemma Seymour, the world needs more people like you.

RMIT backs down when its spurious misconduct case is exposed to the public. A sign in a corridor is a public notice.

Also, supplying weapons and technology to genocidal war criminals is a war crime, and RMIT needs to be exposed and sanctioned for its participation.

People are expressing outrage about how Ben Roberts-Smith was arrested, saying it was too public. He was arrested with no cuffs, not a hand on him, despite facing allegations of war crimes.

I can’t help but think of the young Aboriginal boy wrongly arrested at gunpoint by the AFP on a Canberra bus.

Student claiming RMIT is ‘complicit in genocide’ in social media post faces misconduct action Student accused of sharing a video of the university’s defence and aerospace research centre with the RMIT Students for Palestine Instagram account

“The last I checked you didn’t need to check if a sign was actually a secret sign before you pointed someone in a direction somewhere,” she said.
Bullshit-level accusations from RMIT while censoring a student who is anti-war crimes.

You are obviously an amoral, genocide-supporting shithead. There is far more evidence for this than your claim.
