My Political Standpoint & Elections

My own personal "Political Standpoint/Agenda/Views"

cf. "Elections"

NOTE: I'm not really a "political animal"

➤  I'm NEITHER...
Left nor Right
Liberal nor Labor
Democrat nor Republican
Ist nor Ism
etc etc etc...


➤  Does anyone else notice that this statement is COMPLETELY free from gender, race, sexual orientation, colour, religious persuasion, etc?!?









  ➽ Elections? Promises? POOH! ðŸ’©



Election coming up?
These clowns will say/promise anything to stay in/seek power,
then disappear faceless and voiceless again afterwards.
I'm OVER it!


➽ 'Party Politics' is NOT democracy


When being a "Party Puppet" has never been more realistic!
It's what has destroyed democracy
- and LOCAL REPRESENTATION.



➽ Preferences


Then there's "Preferential Voting"...
If I want to vote for [Candidate], that's who I want to vote for.
NOT (X) other candidates I don't support!

'Preference Deals' are NOT democracy.


➽ On the positive side:

Here in Australia, voting is compulsory.
(Unlike some other nations who claim to uphold democracy as one of their highest values; where voter turnout is so low [for whatever reason] as to render the result truly unrepresentative of the entire electorate).


Me? Cynical?
At my age, I am allowed to be.

ALL Australians Day


Please note: I am no leftist-rightist rubbish.
I am just an average Aussie, with no ulterior motives.


For those who complain about the actual date of 'Australia Day' (26 January), please note: THE FIRST FLEET ARRIVED AT BOTANY BAY ON THE 18TH OF JANUARY, and raised the English flag then! (Source)



"Australia Day"  Vs  "Invasion Day"?
NOPE!


➤ 
We share this land... Australia belongs to all Australians.



➤  "We have to stop with the 'white Australian' or 'Aboriginal people' and just be Australian, together, regardless of background or skin colour."

➤  “Unity and redemption, to reconcile each other... to live together in harmony. That’s my dream, that’s my hope.”


And yes, it really IS that simple.

'I Am Australian' with Pitjantjatjara lyrics
(An unofficial National Anthem)

➤  "Humans have this odd notion that because they were there first or won it in a war, they own the land... the Earth is 4.5 billion years old, we, humans, are a temporary blip in time towards the end of that, and will likely not be here in 200 years time... so let's forget the who owns what and acknowledge we (modern Australians) slaughtered the humans that were originally on this island and do what we can to move into the future with mutual respect" - Gary Hayes

➤  "If you’re an Australian, your heritage is either Aboriginal, Convict, Immigrant or Refugee. I’m a Scottish immigrant, what about you? We’re lucky to share this great country. It’s given me an opportunity to have a better life. Always was and always will be" - Jimmy Barnes, Jan. 2019.



➤  
Hey... the children "get it"...


➤  It is the ADULTS
who continually instill labels/negativity/division/anger/hate/conflict... 
😒
Children are not born with concepts of racism (or any -ism) - it's taught! And that's tragic.

“No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion".


➤  "We have to stop with the white Australian or aboriginal people and just be Australian, together, regardless of background or skin colour."



And yes, it really IS that simple.

Trump: Worst President EVER


Hey, I'm an Australian saying this!


- the twice impeached former president, Jan. 6 coup leader, convicted felon, adjudicated sexual abuser, racist, misogynistic, mismanaged the 2020 economic implosion and coronavirus disaster that killed more than 1 million people in his country, failed businessman, maker of false or misleading statements, conspiracy theorist... - 
Sounds like perfect Presidential material to me... NOT!


His MAGA "Cult" are just that: a cult!





Blatant. Fvcking. NAZIS!

Just. Plain. Creepy.





Remember when Obama...

 Cheated on Michelle with numerous women ? 
Involved in scandals ? 
Gave ISIS a green light ? 
Lied in every sentence ? 
Used profanity at his whiny racist rallies ?
Yeah me neither!!
