Every ANZAC Day
Apr 26th, 2018 at 9:02am
 

Every ANZAC Day for as long as I can rememeber there is always some grub with this sort of opininion.

There are several here that are no better than this vile woman.




A MELBOURNE-BASED comedian who tweeted that Anzac Day is “Bogan Halloween” and a celebration of Australia’s “fetishism of war and violence” has been slammed for her comments.
But like most pile-ons on social media, many took things way, way too far.
Catherine Deveny tweeted on Tuesday that “serve” is not the right word for our armed servicemen and women.
“Why do people in the armed forces use the word ‘serve’ to describe their work despite it being no more dangerous or prone to upheaval than many other jobs?” she wrote.
“It’s just a job and work. Throw the term ‘serve’ in the bin. It’s part of the fetishism of war and violence.”
