Title: Time for a change
Post by Armchair_Politician on Jan 26th, 2016 at 7:27pm
Tony Abbott hasn't been the Prime Minister of Australia since 15 September 2015. I think it's well past time for the atrocious, demeaning and derogatory avatar/picture that depicts him a Hitler on this forum board to be permanently removed - perhaps replacing it with a picture of Parliament House, for example. The same for the budgie smuggler avatar/picture for the Liberal Party forum, as Tony Abbott is no longer leader of the Liberal Party. To continue to show those pictures or to replace them with similarly derogatory pictures of Malcolm Turnbull would be to continue to demonstrate the juvenile attitude of this forums moderator(s) and the absence of similarly derogatory pictures for the ALP and other parties, .simply proves beyond any reasonable doubt that this forum and its moderator is plainly biased against the Liberal Party.

You think that's anything like making someone out to look like Hitler, one of the worst genocidal dictators in history? You need psychiatric help if you honestly believe that.

That's a minor improvement over making someone out to look like Hitler. Come on, surely you can all agree that making someone look like one of the most reviled men in world history should be off-limits. To do this in Germany would land you in prison.

Why - because he was voted into the Liberal leadership the same way that all leaders have risen to that position?

The only things we need to change are 1/ the government and 2/ the slide to the far right.

A centre-left socialist democracy is essential, and for at least three terms, just to repair
the damage the far-right filth have already done.

I thought the 'chaff bag' was about the lowest point politics in this country has ever reached  (or retched)....

Julia had one or two good ideas - but no creds and no persona to carry them off to the public.... and everyone KNEW she was just Labor's (the Labour you have when you remove U from it) token woman first prime minister.   Just another political statement from the left and nothing more.

But she did want one of my favourites - pre-selection by the BRANCH alone and no 'parachuted' parasites from Party Central, and the idea of taxing resource producers on EXCESS income in the billions was not bad...... it would only have balanced out the subsidies they get anyway..... but hell...

Are you for real? Have you even LOOKED?

The Greens - picture of a watermelon. That is derogatory.
Australian Labor Party - picture of Gillard as an emu. That is also derogatory and also nearly three years out of date.
Liberal party - budgie smugglers, also derogatory.
National party - green tractor. This is relatively innocuous IMO.
Palmer United Party - picture of a dinosaur. Questionable.
The last two appear to be party logos.

If you're only objecting to the Liberal image when other images are also derogatory (and one image is also much more out of date), you're just a thin-skinned Liberal having a whinge.

If we are to have any consistency, we should replace all these images with party logos, and not just pick and choose the ones to be replaced based on one's own personal bias. It has to be all or none.
