FUCK IT ALL!

Today I am too tired, too jaded and too resigned to the fate of this country to be any more eloquent than this. So let me begin my thoughts...
Fuck mainstream Australia. Fuck silencing our right to protest. Fuck Biggest Loser and My Kitchen Rules. Fuck bigotry. Fuck excess and abuse. Fuck intolerance. Fuck horse racing. Fuck the Olympics. Fuck Manus island and it's cycle of inhumanity and violence. Fuck complacency. Fuck people who talk about being Australian like it's some god given right to be an arsehole. Fuck people who watch commercial news. Fuck an ineffectual and impotent opposition. Fuck 800 million dollars in tax payments (payoff? bribe?) to Newscorp. Fuck the bored and ignorant population that don't even care about the erosion of our rights or the destruction of our country. Fuck dredging. Fuck marriage for cisgender only and the institutions that claim ownership over love. Fuck American television. Fuck swearing. Fuck palm oil profits over animals lives. Fuck Abbott into a cocked hat. Fuck threats to the institutions that make us great: Medicare, the ABC, freedom of information and the right to associate with whoever we wish. There's so much more but I'm running out of breath. Fuck talking about it. Fuck me for not doing anything.
Apologies to the English language

Corrine Grant: Where The Eff Is The Opposition?

"...Ironically, according to Radio National, Iran is now officially complaining that it was one of their citizens that was killed in the Australian-run Manus Island detention centre. Tanya Plibersek thought that was a ‘bit rich’ considering that Iran is well known for trampling the human rights of their own people.
Plibersek’s argument is a little bit like saying ‘Oh come on, he was going to die anyway, who cares where? I know Australia locked him up and then someone killed him, but at least he didn’t drown at sea’.
Surely no-one could still be buying the whole ‘we just don’t want to see people drown’ bullshit. If you care that much about them, why lump them in facilities where they get stoned to death and shot at?
None of this has anything to do with saving lives and everything to do with punishing innocent people because a small but apparently valuable percentage of the Australian public get off on it. That both major parties court the votes of those people makes my skin crawl.
The ALP has to change. It can earn itself some credibility by taking a stance, even if that means the short term pain of owning up to past mistakes and dodgy dealings. That would not only be the right thing to do, it is increasingly the only thing they can do if they have any hope of ever earning the respect of the country again."
