cut to a policeman: "I find it very ironic that they call themselves anti-war, presumably anti-violent, yet they start acting like this!

I fucking hate this country
I fucking hate this country
Cue the lib response to this: "uh akshully if you hate this country so much why don't you LEAVE? "
My usual response is "I don't want to be a victim of it's foreign policy"
Mine is, "I'd love to, but I'm poor and can't afford a flight, and need a job offer from a Chinese firm."
“Thank you for offering to pay for flights, moving fees, and visa applications for me”
"Unfortunately you've wasted your money, I'm an unconnected nobody with no skills worthy of getting a visa."
Most people's skills would be useless unless they're in some bullshit managerial/executive position, defense contract, IT skills, medical or basically a slave contract to go to Dubai.
There aren't a lot of countries where your trade, shop or desk skills would be in high demands that wouldn't put you in slight risk of being the victim of America's foreign policy in bombs or it's global economic stranglehold.
Of course, you can always know someone.
Or marry someone
Then your partner needs the above; unless you're moving there for her. There is still plenty of risk in that, especially in marriage.
Cause I want a front row seat when it inevitably burns to the ground
"Pay me, lib"
How did they “turn violent”? Could it have something to do with the line of heavily armed people whose only real training is how to use violence?
uwu just a smol bean state violence squad and the protestors were rude about it
They just started headbutting our night sticks out of nowhere!
My parents are watching the 7.30 report and it's all 'one sidesing' the violence. Grotesque. I had to leave the room
I swear every time I make the mistake of watching normal TV the propaganda gets 500% more hamfisted
Even 'abmormal' tv is galling
the ABC: 'a copper got a booboo, a ghoul was shouted at and pushed (v i o l e n c e) someone threw a coke(??? mystery liquid/ACID???! we'll trust the police on this one, also pepper spray is fine actually) and a bin was set on fire (v i o l e n c e) so here's a piece about the economic benefit of buying Israeli weapons and also Christopher Pyne to tell you why anti-war protesters should be shot at'
Yeh but remind me again how tHe AbC iS lEfTwInG
More coppers should get booboos
Infinite booboos on the po po
I dunno I remember it being exceptionally hamfisted back in the post 9/11 haze. I think it just feels more surreal now since I never watch legacy TV but it was an mundane everyday thing back then. It's the same as whenever I see an ad these days I feel like I'm on an alien planet.
It really is unreal just how toxic it all is, and how much they'll openly lie. Journos in this country have no soul.
