Quote:Australia's first female Muslim MP wants to change 18C race laws to include religion - so it is illegal to insult followers of Islam
Australia's first female federal Muslim MP Anne Aly wants racial discrimination laws broadened so it is illegal to insult followers of Islam.
The Egyptian-born politician's call comes only days after a motion was passed in Canada calling on the federal government to 'condemn Islamophobia'.
While Australia's Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull wants to remove the words 'insult', 'offend' and 'humiliate' from section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act, Labor wants to go the opposite way.
this course of action by a leftie is symptomatic of why the leftie is part of the problem , not part of the solution.
"attempt to insult someone" is seen as a problem??
but is it??
are people really that unsure of themselves, that ungrounded in core confidence that they need "universal approval" to "maintain state".
sure an insult might sting and someone being mean to you isnt pleasant but thats just life. life is harsh. and until you accept that life is pretty harsh and completely unfair, youre screwed.
the point is what do you do about it.
and this is where lefties simply go down the slippery slope to mediocrity and follow the path of least resistance to making people a failure.
because when you feel pain and identify with it and let the environment determine your mental state...you go down.
and when you feel pain and use it as the emotional juice to effect change and propel you into an upward spiral...you go up.
when someone is mean to you , when you see a rich guy...its just so easy to be a victim or be envious and if you do, you have let the environment run your state and you will inevitably have a state crash.
but if you can harness pain to use it as a lesson in growth,
if you can look at a rich successful happy guy and study his success...the progress you can make is unlimited.
its a harsh world
we all want to move up
you cant move up without building massive resilience.
you cant build muscle without going to the gym and feeling pain
you cant build a business without the fear and ambiguity and chaos of solving problems.
if you think everyone has to be nice to you for you to "cope", you are screwed.
you need to have just that little bit of anger to fuel a response to take action to go up.
you see this in the great sports captains when their team is losing. they get a bit mad, they use that anger to focus and they move up.
you dont stay angry like that angry old grandpa who is always angry but you dont sit in the locker room at 1/2 time, when you are down, and get all butt hurt and start blaming the ref. you draw on core confidence, resilience and determination to make it happen and you enjoy the journey for the journey itself. this is the way of the superior man and the leftie needs to stop always putting people on the path top mediocrity
The only person to be prosecuted under 18C was Andrew Bolt. He didn't just call a few Boongs some bad names, he used both his column and TV show to target specific Aboriginal people with the hope of ending their careers, and he used lies to do so.
So, sure. If Andrew Bolt, or any other shock jock or Tele columnist, were to use their position to lie about members of the Muslim community, I'd be quite happy for a vehicle like 18C being used to shut them down or force them to apologise.
We're not talking about one-off insults here, we're talking about protecting people from those in power - the Alan Joneses, the Andrew Bolts, the Ray Hadleys.
The media, and particularly the print media, has no laws to prevent the sort of targeted and sustained disinformation campaigns people like Bolt carry out.
