What made you political?
May 26th, 2022 at 7:08am
 
Each of us joined this board to discuss politics, meaning we care about politics enough to discuss it.  Were you always this way? If not, what changed?

For me, I got involved in helping refugees because I am reasonably wealthy and wanted to give back to society.  I had no clue it was a political act until people started to harass and threaten me.  Then Reclaim Australia happened, which I immediately recognised as Nazism and I started to speak out against it.  Out of that, a gang of people started creating fake Facebook pages of me, claiming to speak for me and saying I loved terrorism, etc.  They stalked my kids online, created pages attacking them and  called my house threatening to kill them.  To this day there are people who try to find me all over the internet, attack me, and try to get me to retaliate so they can take screenshots and claim I stalk and harass them.  I've had cops at my door because they did this and misrepresented what I said (I said I think someone will try to kill Kyle Rittenhouse, in a right wing group where people were saying Kyle proves it's OK to execute people for being left wing).

I got regular death threats for years.  If you google me there's a ton of videos lying about me and giving my address, in the hope someone sees them and tries to harm me.  I was also submitted to a ton of pages claiming I am a child abuser and rapist.  These things would affect my life if I was not married a long time, and an in demand professional.  They tried to basically destroy my life because I am kind to people who are not white.  At one stage someone who was threatening me sent me a photo of himself outside my front gate.  I was at work, and my kids were home.  It was scary.

So, I learned that to have morals, to be literate and kind, is to be left wing.  Some right wing people are not extremists, but none reject the extremists in their midst.  They are trying to tear down and destroy society, so I am left wing.

A great number of right wing voters are white supremacists.

There's no doubting that.

White supremacy is a huge threat in both the US and this country.

And yes, it's disgusting how people (including members of this forum) will defend the violence.

"When it comes to extremism, the focus within US law enforcement and intelligence agencies has shifted to white supremacist and far-right groups. Those concerns were amplified by events like the deadly neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017, as well as the January 6 insurrection at the US Capitol."

Sadly, your viewpoint has been skewed too far, so that you assume anyone and everyone is your enemy, and is of some extreme right faction.

You know nothing - I've studied refugee issues and perpetually state that refugees are a different category from mass immigration of incompatible groups, etc, etc, and that there are good reasons economically to oppose mass immigration.

Yet you sit and claim I'm some form of Fascist because I don't tolerate bullshit from Antifa or BLM or blacktivists or ratbag feminists with their totally self-centred ideas that they should control the nation and everyone in it and dispose of them in true Stalinesque manner - the 'oppressor' has no rights and all are subject to the whim of the State ... and because I criticise fairly ON FACT certain groups for their continued  and escalating behaviour.

Again - you have yet to offer any solutions or even valid arguments, because your entire approach is clouded in personal vitriol.  Trouble with that is you wouldn't know your real friends from your enemies, since you now, due to your claimed experiences, see everyone as your enemy and yourself as a fearless crusader against wrong (as you see it).

Sad to see a grown man lapse into that juvenile approach to life... blame the stresses if you like - but again - you can get help there.... straighten your thinking out.

Footnote:- In some ways you remind me of my ex sister-in-law who, after years of stupidly living with my mad brother, now sees herself from the perspective of her own vitriol learned from him as some fearless crusader for women's 'rights' - even though what she is really is a sufferer from Stockholm Syndrome and now behaves the same way as her oppressor... to the T.  My bro was, in turn, a sufferer from Stockholm generated by his upbringing, and learned behaviour became the same as his oppressor's (parents), and he then acted out to the T their behaviour.

Capisce?  You don't have to abide by the training given to you by nasty people.... you are captain of your own soul.

It seems you have been trained the same way by your 'oppressors' - now man up and wake up and get out of that narrow and openly hostile mindset towards everyone, and open your ears and mind to other views, especially when those are supported by facts.  Open your heart.... look into your heart, Tommy ...

You're welcome.....

There's a lot of other bullshit here, but let's start there....  It's hard not to hate people who have stalked me for years and threatened to kill my kids, what do you recommend I do?

A great number of right wing voters are white supremacists.

There's no doubting that.



A lot of right wing voters are Asian, African, Arab etcs.

Are they extremists or supremacists?

A majority are not white or supremacists.

Look at the major cities - what do you call around 200,000 a year?  In a population of around 26M, that's 1.3% a year.... look at the demand for housing, shopping, transport and so forth that has escalated for decades now.... look at the supply of all of those things.

Are you settled in the parasite housing market, considering you're 'wealthy' - well - of course you don't want to cut yourself out now, do you?

So you're happy to see an extra 5%-8%-10% population increase from immigration every five years, primarily in the major cities which are running out of everything, while demand for housing and even land etc goes through the roof and destroys the economy for the majority, and supply is running out at the same time as the existing infrastructure is about to drown in its own flood of sh1t?  Then there are the social issues - establishment of ghettoes, high crime incidence in some groups, 'tribal' wars between groups, unwillingness to remotely assimilate, open hostility by some groups to the general run of Australians (I went to school with Poles, Ukraines, Germans, Dutch, Russians, Italians, Greeks, Rumanians, Czechs, Irish, Scottish,English and so forth.... even some Indigenous ...every one of those is an AUSTRALIAN, got that - I was mates with a lot of them and we had no 'tribal wars' such as exist in Granville etc, and between the Vietnamese and Lebs over the drug trade, going on since the 1970's - got it yet?)

So when you see groups hating predominantly on White Christian Australians, they are hating on all of those, and are clearly the problem when it comes to racism.

White Supremacy is NOT a major problem in Australia - it is a minor reaction to other group supremacy, and is limited to a small group.  Simply discussing the issues surrounding mass immigration is NOT supremacist... it is economic and social sense.

Again, for the slow horses, I was 'head-hunted' by our top security service on the basis of my views, back then, on 'right wing influences' in this nation.... though we disagreed on the actual foundation of 'right wing influences' ...... I could and still can see such things developing in politics of al kinds, including the 'left' which has the same mistaken idea that they have control over the individual here and the right to impose the will of their chosen ones at whim .....EXTREME right wing activities here, again, are in the minority, and are NOT generally accepted.

Fascist style control remains very much on the cards.... not least from the left.

But you'll need time to get that sorted out when you impartially view the actual behaviours and outcomes... difference of a cigarette paper between extreme left and right - and both claim to be looking for the best for all (LMAO).

Race mixing has been going on since Neanderthal times.

It may amaze a dick like you that many other races are anti-race mixing.

You're just another rabid lefty that is anti-white.

Are you a racist?

That was species mixing Tongue

I don't care if people in other races are also racist.  You will overstate it, but it's not important to me.  I care about MY society first, because I live here, not because it is better.

I love how the Nazis all scream that it's 'anti white' to not hate brown people.

'cry and run'- you ARE delusional.  I've asked you direct question time and again and never an answer.

That's called 'trolling', son... it is YOU who cry and run....

What are your solutions to the endemic problems of Aboriginal communities?  We'll try again... how would YOU fix them?    You reckon it's disadvantage - which is first the disadvantage or the behaviour?  Which the horse, which the cart?  Who chooses to live in disadvantaged regions and lead a disadvantaged lifestyle?

Ain't no Wharte Man With No Eyes standing there forcing them to do the things they do....

We'll move on once we can get you settled here...

A great number of right wing voters are white supremacists.

There's no doubting that.



Ask Heather Heyer, or Kyle's victims.  What's more concerning is that most of the right will defend such people as a 'difference of opinion'


White supremacy is a huge threat in both the US and this country.

And yes, it's disgusting how people (including members of this forum) will defend the violence.

"When it comes to extremism, the focus within US law enforcement and intelligence agencies has shifted to white supremacist and far-right groups. Those concerns were amplified by events like the deadly neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017, as well as the January 6 insurrection at the US Capitol."

Sadly, your viewpoint has been skewed too far, so that you assume anyone and everyone is your enemy, and is of some extreme right faction.

You know nothing - I've studied refugee issues and perpetually state that refugees are a different category from mass immigration of incompatible groups, etc, etc, and that there are good reasons economically to oppose mass immigration.

Yet you sit and claim I'm some form of Fascist because I don't tolerate bullshit from Antifa or blacktivists or ratbag feminists with their totally self-centred ideas that they should control the nation... and because I criticise fairly ON FACT certain groups for their continued behaviour.

Again - you have yet to offer any solutions or even valid arguments, because your entire approach is clouded in personal vitriol.  Trouble with that is you wouldn't know your real friends from your enemies, since you now, due to your claimed experiences, see everyone as your enemy and yourself as a fearless crusader against wrong (as you see it).

Sad to see a grown man lapse into that juvenile approach to life... blame the stresses if you like - but again - you can get help there.... straighten your thinking out.

Footnote:- In some ways you remind me of my ex sister-in-law who, after years of stupidly living with my mad brother, now sees herself from the perspective of her own vitriol learned from him as some fearless crusader for women's 'rights' - even though what she is really is a sufferer from Stockholm Syndrome and now behaves the same way as her oppressor... to the T.  My bro was, in turn, a sufferer from Stockholm generated by his upbringing, and learned behaviour became the same as his oppressor's (parents), and he then acted out to the T their behaviour.

Capisce?  You don't have to abide by the training given to you by nasty people.... you are captain of your own soul.

It seems you have been trained the same way by your 'oppressors' - now man up and wake up and get out of that narrow and openly hostile mindset towards everyone, and open your ears and mind to other views, especially when those are supported by facts.

You're welcome.....

Stop annoying people to the point you do.

Ever think that any threat made against you or your family(which I do not condone) may solely be because of your actions?

Take responsibility for that & try a different approach.

As I've said, I started politely explaining to people why what they beleived about refugees is wrong.  My current approach comes out of that approach leading to my kids being stalked and threatened.  I have learned that being nice doesn't help, the right are violent scum.

I note you can't answer questions.  Tell me about mass migration? I only see the term used by racists to mean 'too many non whites in my town'

Stop fishing .... that's all you're trying to do.

You tell me why there is any need for "mass migration" and why should any sovereign nation have an open border policy?

How will adequate infrastructure be in place and who is going to foot the bill?

We already have a public housing crisis and a homeless crisis caused by both the right and the left.

Are we going to build ghettos for the resulting racial enclaves that will ensue?

Hi, on the definition of mass immigration.  A right wing poster here - Gordon have defined it as anything above 60000 per year. 

Usual immigration intake for Australia over the years is between 200 thousand to 300 thousand per year not withstanding COVID years.   I think both Labor and Liberal are looking to return to this figure.

Empty your pockets & start building houses.

Don't know what sort of employment you're going to offer but hey .... you're pretty good with the motherhood statements that's all that counts isn't it?

Oh & btw move out to the Eyre Basin and give the rest of us some room to breathe ....

you'd suck the oxygen out of a room.

Don't know what sort of employment you're going to offer but hey .... you're pretty good with the motherhood statements that's all that counts isn't it?

Oh & btw move out to the Eyre Basin and give the rest of us some room to breathe ....

you'd suck the oxygen out of a room.


So all bullshit? Every new person uses services and creates jobs

Stop fishing .... that's all you're trying to do.

You tell me why there is any need for "mass migration" and why should any sovereign nation have an open border policy?

How will adequate infrastructure be in place and who is going to foot the bill?

We already have a public housing crisis and a homeless crisis caused by both the right and the left.

Are we going to build ghettos for the resulting racial enclaves that will ensue?


I want you to define your terms, that's all.

There is no need for mass migration, and there is no mass migration as I see it. But you won't define what you mean by the term, so.....

The right have caused those crises, real left wing government would fix them.  We have tons of land to build houses on.

I have never seen WeChat.  I just read the news and stay informed.  Try it.


You're the one that mentioned it.

Here's a link about mass migration. Get informed.

Your cowardice fascinates me.....

Services paid for by whom? As if you don't know.

Creates jobs financed by government aka the tax payer.

You're clown & I know where the BS is emanating from.

That's my right as a member here.

You don't like any answers unless they fit your narrative.

Outside of that you're fishing.

Okay, everyone here, lets be nice. 

60 thousand is what the right wing believe is an adequate level.   Its a smallish number, and I think there is a reason behind it.   

The death rate in Australia is about 6.6 per 1000 per year.  This translates to about 161000 death per year.  Birth number is about 311 000 per year.   This based on population of 23 million.   This is a net gain of about 150 000 people natively per year.   60 thousand immigration will contribute to this net gain, making an annual growth of 1% - for the right wing, its an acceptable number due to constraints with infrastucture and service. 

However, I did argue, that due to our ageing population.  In order to achieve real economic growth of 2 to 3 per cent, without inflation, we probably need figures of 500 to 600 thousands net gain.  But this would be political suicide for any party.   So I have arrived at a middle figure of 100 to 120 thousand per year post COVID as a way going forward.

We are a sparsely populated country.  I don't want to take unlimited numbers, of immigrants or refugees, but the numbers the right propose are just ridiculous

The problem is that even as we are sparsely populated country, most of our country is hostile to human living.   In many places we just simply dont have the infrastructure and water.   To do otherwise, would cause immense damage to the environment.  To go forward, this need to be more measured and carefully planned.  The last thing we want is another suburb somewhere without services and are in traffic gridlock the whole day.

Yeah, better planning is required.  But as a starting point there's country towns with supply chains that are dying.  Lots of refugees have thrived in such areas.  There's also issues with planning approval, not enough units are getting built

My parents made me political.  My father had long been involved with the ALP and had even at one point been offered a position in the DLP through his Catholic connections but knocked it back wisely.  My mother was heavily involved in Church politics, frequently clashing with the local Parish Priest.  She gave as good as she got and was respected for that, particularly after Vatican II.  I have been a lifelong supporter of the working man/woman as a consequence.  I dislike the Tories for their unfeeling attitude and their selfish rorting for their own silver spoon.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I don't care if people in other races are also racist.  You will overstate it, but it's not important to me.  I care about MY society first, because I live here, not because it is better.


Oh, so you DO recognise and appreciate what borders do.

He doesn't respond to direct questions, will not accept factual data put before him, and resorts to insults and name-calling.. I'd hardly call that engaging with others.... would you??

To me it's a sign of an unbalanced personality and frankly, his entire approach is very houso, regardless of what he claims is his true station in life..... you can take the boy out of the houso, but you cannot take the houso out of the boy - I've recommended he seek help.

He won't listen to me.

What truth was that, smith?  the one where he used worldwide estimate figures to arrive at 'hundreds of thousands of trannies and gender-benders' in Australia whereas the hard data collected via census and self-reporting with no comebacks tells a totally different story - or something else?  Like all the figures provided by Indigenous sources about violence etc in their communities is all just made up figures by the 'right'?

I suppose he thought that having to use pencils at the election meant that someone was rubbing out the numbers and replacing them with others...... still... Labor won so all those who said it at my polling station were wrong, eh?  Where TF would anyone get time to do that with millions of vote papers?

Jeez - you are convincing me he is totally paranoid, Smith.... do try to help out ...

I literally linked you to an article establishing the trans status was not a question in the census.  You are a dumb cnut.

No one has provided a source for figures on indigenous violence or been willing to discuss it.  You just run away.

So where did the figures come from cited as from the 2016 Census, you dumb cnut?  If there was no question, why were there respondents?  DUH!

There you come back with your nasty name-calling - you truly are stupid, aren't you?

I have provided you source for indigenous violence and you simply refuse to accept it even though it is an Indigenous source .... you need help.

An outright troll... fit well with one or two here.

For me, I got involved in helping refugees because I am reasonably wealthy and wanted to give back to society.  I had no clue it was a political act until people started to harass and threaten me.  Then Reclaim Australia happened, which I immediately recognised as Nazism and I started to speak out against it.  Out of that, a gang of people started creating fake Facebook pages of me, claiming to speak for me and saying I loved terrorism, etc.  They stalked my kids online, created pages attacking them and  called my house threatening to kill them.  To this day there are people who try to find me all over the internet, attack me, and try to get me to retaliate so they can take screenshots and claim I stalk and harass them.  I've had cops at my door because they did this and misrepresented what I said (I said I think someone will try to kill Kyle Rittenhouse, in a right wing group where people were saying Kyle proves it's OK to execute people for being left wing).

I got regular death threats for years.  If you google me there's a ton of videos lying about me and giving my address, in the hope someone sees them and tries to harm me.  I was also submitted to a ton of pages claiming I am a child abuser and rapist.  These things would affect my life if I was not married a long time, and an in demand professional.  They tried to basically destroy my life because I am kind to people who are not white.  At one stage someone who was threatening me sent me a photo of himself outside my front gate.  I was at work, and my kids were home.  It was scary.

So, I learned that to have morals, to be literate and kind, is to be left wing.  Some right wing people are not extremists, but none reject the extremists in their midst.  They are trying to tear down and destroy society, so I am left wing.


Sorry for your experiences.
Thanks for helping society

If those are rightys, I'm not one of those.

Lefties want affirmation. To "engage" with them is to affirm them, fully, no matter what they put forward.  "Attacking " them is the term for disagreeing with them. If you disagree with anything a lefty says he will call you an attacker, a denier, a hater, a nazi.

The lefty mind : engagement with my ideas = fully agree or die, nazi scum.

You cannot engage with lefties on the grounds of reason, ONLY on the grounds of emotion. Being a lefty is an emotional state and you cannot argue or rationally debate ideas with someone who operates emotionally and regards ideas as oppressive, right wing conspiracies calculated solely to thwart his feelings about any and all topics.
Why learn, reason and reflect when you can just feel and emote? - that's the comfort position of most lefties.

Smith is paranoid, too... you get that when the kids at school pick on you..... ya gotta learn, Smithy - I was a year younger than the kids at school and never lost a fight....  if you don't thrash bullies they will walk all over you.... but don't let it traumatise you for life, son.... hard though when you're 5'4" and still got those chips on your shoulder...

Despite your silliness and personal vitriol, I still see some good in you.... listen to your heart... look into your heart.... LIVE IT!!

you ignored the whole gist of the thread and went straight into attack. Sure, futuretheleftwanted went a little over the top, but given his history and that his kids were deliberately targeted for his political views, I'm willing to overlook that. I doubt you'd act differently if your kids were targeted.

How about you just ignore the crap and deal with the purpose of the thread which was 'what made you political'?

In my mid 20s, my girlfriend (nothing serious more of a root friend) was a bit of a greenie, but in a good way, save the forests, save the whales kind, all good with me.

Up until then I actually thought the Greens were about..you know, the environment and stuff.

She had some friends who were hard core ultra left greens party, all little disciples of that piece of crap, Lee Rhiannon.

One time we went out for a big night, her friends, in the wee hours of the morning with a drink or 3 in them enlightend me on how they wanted to totally dismantle society, destroy the patriarchy and make Australia a non white white country.
They wanted Australia to undergo a Pol Pot style reset, but without the killing.
I barely knew who Pol Pot was then, but got a bit of an idea a few years later when I visited the killing fields, S-21 etc.

Zoom forward, I've met a few Greens politicians and party members, they are absolute pieces of crap who are the biggest hypocrites, basically sociopaths.

The Greens are nothing but a stalking horse for a very sinister hard left-wing agenda which is why I'm glad Labor won with a decent margin to sideline these psychopaths.

I did some work with the Liberals in the 1970's early 80's. I worked out fairly quickly that they were not the sort of people that could be trusted to run Australia. They were way too nasty.

What made me political was that some jerks wanted to create their idea of a Nirvana by preference to certain groups at the expense of the rest..... I'm a true egalitarian ... I believe all should have a genuinely equal opportunity, no excuses, and if they choose not to take it - it's on their own back.

Like suicides - nothing you can do will prevent them if that is their choice.....

All that is precisely why I oppose quotas, and why I do not accept affirmative action. I would happily employ anyone of any colour, creed, or gender as long as they can do the job...... there is no need for any of those things - AA, preference, victimology, quotas when everyone has the same real opportunity.

I quit the CPS over those views - yet they later head-hunted me for security orientated areas, including preservation of the realm and the AFP, even asked me if I'd like a boat job with Customs, and they employ me sometimes to this day.

Integrity counts........

I am politically neutral but not apolitical.... see the difference?

Anyone who mistakes elected office for a power base and uses it for the advancement of their own personal agenda should be jailed ...

That guy who took advantage of his position to groom young boys is an utter disgrace and deserves to go to prison for life...

Federal ICAC will sort a few of them out..... where is it, Albo?  My cousin's hubby is waiting in the wings - old Bulldog..... he's a prick but an honest one.... he'll do a good job of running it.

Raised in a conservative voting household I became political after I joined the workforce & became a Union member.

I saw the struggles workers had to try & get a fair deal over 46 years - watching how much harder it became when Liberal govts had the reins making anti-Union/worker legislation at every opportunity.

I also saw the opportunity Labor govts had to right those wrongs only to be disappointed that they didn't or that in certain areas they didn't go far enough in repealing draconian shyte legislation the LNP introduced.

I had the thought that if you had a Labor or LNP state govt it would be better to have the corresponding local member if you wanted a better deal for your city/region.

Sadly for many years in my community the exact opposite happened .... when we had a local LNP member we had a Labor state govt & vice versa.

Now we have a local Labor MP & a Labor state govt. more things seems to be happening for our city/region.

As a home owner I have an interest in the running of the Council & how it's decisions affect me ... especially when it's my hip pocket.

A 90 year old wouldn't indulge a prat like you... more than likely tell you to "bugger off you whipper snapper".

Nah 1st marriage.

You're a child of the 80's & 30 years married?

Did you wed when you were 10 yrs old? Grin

edit: so you're a contractor? A capitalist & operating in a dog eat dog world.

And you're a Greenie? pmsl.

I was born in 1969.  I was a teenager in the 80s.  I was married at 20, for 18 months, married again a year later.  Something like that.

Not really dog eat dog, no.  I am hotly pursued by employers, I get 6 job offers within a couple of weeks when I look.

Teenagers are still children but the phrase 'child of the 80s' typically implies that I was a teenager then, that it's the time that was formative for me.

So, I learned that to have morals, to be literate and kind, is to be left wing.  Some right wing people are not extremists, but none reject the extremists in their midst.  They are trying to tear down and destroy society, so I am left wing.
