The internet wasn't like that when pages were largely text witb the odd photograph. Governments and businesses found a way to make a fortune selling leftist propaganda. It's amazing how many c.o.c.k and balls lap it up like it's gospel. Tsk, tsk.

facebook can choose to publish or not publish what they damn well like.

And this fact does not impinge on anyone's free speech.

A resident Islam critic who claims to represent western values said:

Outlawing the enemy's uniform - hijab, islamic beard - is not depriving one's own people of their freedoms.

True, Gandalf. How about the ABC and SBS?  Should their be restraints on media outlets funded by the sweat of Australia's citizens?

You'd have the ABC and SBS ignore the legal constraints laid down in legislation, Hammer, just so you could see people insulted?  How terribly irresponsible of you.  Tsk, tsk.   Roll Eyes

Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour.  Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Actually, I would have the public broadcasters brought into  line so they no longer represent the views of about 10% of the population. Tsk, tsk.

Amazing how the overwhelming majority view the ABC as the most reliable news source, Hammer while about 40% of the population regularly watches ABC-TV.   I think your problem is that you represent about 0.0000010% of the population's views.  Tsk, tsk.   Roll Eyes

Frankly, i'm more interested in why, after reporting countless gruesome, graphic descriptions of rape, sexual violence and death directed to her, the brilliant and fabulous Clementine Ford was not only ignored by Facebook, such threats intensified across numerous pages.

And if that isn't enough, when Clementine reposted some of the gruesome  and graphic descriptions of sexual violence, rape and death to show her followers what she was dealing with, Facebook banned her.

  Cannot stand Ford, she just churns out tired cliched crap from years ago.and says something "controversial" once in a while to keep herself relevant..she hasnt got one original thought in her head....she even stole her name from a prominent American feminist named Clementine Ford....just a garden variety bogan..



Yes. Ford speaks like an animal. She has no subtly, no ability to argue a point calmly, and thinks being abusive is clever.

the polluters here will love this.


Now Sprintcyclist, and it's ilk, will have to be creative and invent his own Islamophobic propaganda instead of copying from others.


Maybe Sprint can copy Herbie's.

No cheating please, Sprint.
