Also known as weeds
To just spring up wherever they like

As the ruler of the land
You go and assess a plant
And if it is adding to the overall wealth of the farm
It is welcome to stay and reproduce

But if it is just a taker plant
A plant which takes resources an add nothing to the overall profitability of the farm
Then you stick a big dose of exterminant down it's throat or you run over it with the slasher

You certainly do not let it stay and reproduce
Not if you want an awesome rich productive successful farm

The Australian closet-pom culture is struggling with the concept of cultural diversity.

In fact, the UK is a prime example of the benefits of cultural diversity because it would never have risen to the pinnacle of a world power prior to the 1900s without the flow of other nationalities into the country.

The problem with cultural diversity concepts of Australians is that they still fear being labeled the white trash of Asia.

With a Melbournian Greek population larger than Athens... A vibrant Italian-Australian culture... A fast-growing Indian-Australian culture, likewise African-Australian culture...

And let's not forget first-nations cultures... Yes... They're not all the same cultures any more than, say, Irish and Albanian cultures are the same...

there is wisdom in being a farmer.

what you learn is humility and just how delicate and complex systems are.

the well-meaning leftie thinks you can usher in massive social change like whitlam did with single mothers pensions or native title or multi culturalism or renewable energy or whatever and that you can predict the consequences.

the farmer knows that these pseudo-intellectuals know nothing and that the likelihood they will get it right , first time, is zero.

multi culturalism has been a bit of a flop.

merkel, macron, even blair all said it.
sweden has walked it back.

successful socieites are cohesive....japan, south korea and china being prime examples.

you cant govern a city like sydeny without it ending up in suburbs with distinct racial identities.

how could you govern china with 1.4 billion people without a centralised system that said you will adhere to a set of behaviours which are "chinese".

you couldnt

the USA with 1/4 the population of china is imploding under the effects of tribalism.
and technology will only make this worse.

your a smart guy NoN.

you should listen to chauncey aquascoot

Productive, intelligent, working and assimilating diversity.

Not the welfare-seeking illiterate gimme hordes of Africa and Asia and latin America who tranform everything into the shithole they left because they have nothing else to contribute.

Take you, for example. Useless, throbbing, dark and... er... that's it. How the hell did YOU end up in Australia? What lies did you tell? All in order to be in here, tearing down and undermining and despising. Fcck off doesn't even begin to describe the proper attitude towards shites like you.

gardening/farming is probably the hardest industry/profession I know of.

If anyone is a good farmer, they are really good businessmen

Well in Noel pearson's immortal eulogy to Gough Whitlam

[Referring to Whitlam] And years later we are like John Cleese, Eric Idle and Michael Palin's Jewish insurgents ranting against the despotic rule of Rome, defiantly demanding "and what did the Romans ever do for us anyway?"

Apart from Medibank
and the Trade Practices Act,
cutting tariff protections
and no-fault divorce in the Family Law Act,
the Australia Council,
the Federal Court,
the Order of Australia,
federal legal aid,
the Racial Discrimination Act,
needs-based schools funding,
the recognition of China,
the abolition of conscription,
the law reform commission,
student financial assistance,
the Heritage Commission,
non-discriminatory immigration rules,
community health clinics,
Aboriginal land rights,
paid maternity leave for public servants,
lowering the minimum voting age to 18 years
and fair electoral boundaries
and Senate representation for the territories.

Apart from all of this, what did this Roman ever do for us?

Do you have permaculture in your farm, dear?

That's where you mix everything in to create an ecosystem, the fruit trees fertilizing the ground crops and so on. No fake phosphates, no added chemicals. It all runs on balanced crop diversity. Prince Charles is a fan.

No socialist genetic engineering for him, he's a rugged conservative. A garden must be cultivated to look after itself.

You?

What Whitlam did was usher in much much much bigger government

He brought in the idea that a resilient and independent and cheerful and community-based people
Should bestow all their power and all the things that influence the trajectory of their life into an authority figure in a large bureaucratic nightmare called Canberra

And we have paid a terrible terrible price for abdicating that responsibility
Responsibility to stand on our own two feet

Now everyone from a first home buyer to an aged care resident
From an Aborigine to a small business owner
To a large corporation to someone doing a trade
To someone sick going to hospital to someone wanting to study at university

All must look towards this bureaucratic nightmare
And wine like a hungry toddler
And try and get some of the churn out of this all-consuming monstrosity

Whitlam and his ideology demolished Australia

We could have been a strong Noble independent anti fragile resilient forthright people

Instead we are a bunch of little crybabies
You never want government to do anything for you that you can do yourself
Because once you do that
You weaken yourself
You become more mediocre
You don't want to bounce out of bed in the morning ready to get on with an awesome life
You just want to lie there like a little puke
And get fat and lazy and entitled

Disgusting and disgraceful stuff

Imagine Australia Politics as a Collective of 'Families' that are all connected to other 'Families' and all these millions of Families are part of the over-all 'Empowerment' of Australian Politics - all part of the 'Re-PUBLIC'.
Unlike Northern Hemisphere Politics which is an empowerment of the Institution and the Individual at the top of the Pyramid. Australian Politics empowers the Family Men that make up the bottom of the Pyramid.
Hell, the Federal Power becomes just a minor power (via PM) representing all that is now Australia on the International arena and the Gov-General still stands equal but representing the Military more (the Troopers).

Australia's fracture from Federal, to State and then to Provincial and finally into many separate and INDEPENDENT nations that were once Provincials and before that States. Once one, then many. The Reverse of the USA where independent States rose to become One Nation (wonder where Pauline got her idea? Roll Eyes

). Here it's more like Yugoslavia in the 'fracturing' of that Nation down into many.

If you think the Premiers came together as one while they locked and distanced themselves over Covid - then you're right in a way. Despite their arguments and differences (yep - indie cultural growth for the States was immense) - they worked as one to do a far better job than the Federal/PM who let the 'international' threat to enter this country. Seems the Queen had a moment with the South Australian Premier today/yesterday, rather than the PM or Gov-Gen.
Just to see how the State is going... oh, and to accept another 'tribute' offering from an Artist.

I remember when going to Victoria was exciting as going to another country. They had VFL, Trams, Conductors and much more that other States had less of or none.
Then Pauline Hanson's 'One Nation' appeared to ride a mediocre unification of the States as they all became much like one another. Before you knew it, Australia was becoming a bland sameness. Why travel interstate when it's like still being in your own State. Sydney had Leagues Clubs and Pokies. Victorians made the Murray River shine to 'responsibly' gamble only as a 'holiday' - now with Packer's Evil Tower of Crown - Melbourne is littered with destituted gambling 'addicts'.

Now, thanks to the wonderfully global changing Corona Virus of DEATH. We are seeing a Renaissance of State Cultures where Victorians really are different, as are the WAckers over there in the west, etc.

The Corona has brought a Renaissance of Australian domestic State cultures. Even Cape York took advantage of the moment to distance themselves from being Queenslanders. Same with the Riverina.

I think we should arm all Borders with Checkpoints and shoot anyone who votes for 'One Nation' of Boredom.

Hmmm... First person plural... A Freudian slip?

Are you channeling your inner Brando or did it just slip out? 'If it waddn't for Whitlam, I coulda had class. I coulda been a contender. I coulda been somebody, instead of a bum, which is what I am, let's face it.'

Oh? The Australia of the 50s and 60s was a closed shop, dear. The government dished out everything - finances, banks, monopolies. Mother bought all the wool to keep us going, and you couldn't even smuggle a Playboy magazine into the country, never mind import a Darkie. The Hawke/Keating governments changed all this for good.

Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?

The 50's & 60's were a far cry from the world today.

Practically everybody left the keys in their car when they went to town for a day / night out, (keys left in the ignition, windows down, doors unlocked).

Old ladies could walk the streets in total safety, it was unthinkable that some twisted prick would knock them down and steal their handbag.

Girls could walk the streets at night in absolute safety, again unthinkable that some gutless coward would rape them.

Children all used to walk to school in absolute safety, once more unthinkable that some pedophile would kidnap them and take them and rape them.

People lived / slept in unlocked houses, secure in the knowledge that home was their domain, no one would enter with iniquitous intent.

Then leftwing social engineering began to over ride all aspects of life.

Today society is disintegrating everywhere.

Leftwing social engineering / political correctness rules, people indoctrinated from pre-school on, universities riddled with the leftwing concept.

Oh well it's our choice the leftards are on a roll at the moment, just how far we have to sink into the sewer before we start to turn around, remains to be seen.
