@the_Debstar_57 @sassycarrie Just my self respect. But if numbers of followers are an indication of moral authority we are all in strife, right?

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@sassycarrie This person knows nothing about me, my voting habits or what I’ve done with my life.

Lazy tropes and assumptions are their stock in trade.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@annatime94 @sassycarrie You are as keen as Cassie to characterise me in whatever way suits you.

I’m not angry Anna and glad for this lovely day, hope you enjoy it too.

Bye!

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@sassycarrie Well let me know when your hard core position makes some demonstrable change to the suffering of millions of people.

Meanwhile those of us that struggle with nuance and work outside the political sphere to make the world better will keep at it.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@annatime94 @sassycarrie You know you’re on Twitter right? Public comment invites public response.

You and others that don’t like it could always start a WhatsApp to secure your echo chamber of self congratulation.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@fapanislives @sassycarrie Wait till you find out you are the arbiter.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Fiestywenchyone @sassycarrie I totally agree, some awesome binary thinking here on this thread, the ‘true left’ versus the rest. The irony of course will be lost on most.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@annatime94 @sassycarrie Pretty mild so far Anna, I think I’ll survive it.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Power_Age2023 @sassycarrie And ‘us’ in this scenario? Risible.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Andrew65986090 @LyleShelton Man seems proud of his reluctance to read, would rather accept the word of people he already agrees with.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@hore_rob Somehow I doubt you spend your time monitoring the ABC, so begs the question of how you would even know. Just making shit up again?

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Anthonywodillon I throw you plenty of brickbats Anthony, so worth saying I agree with every word here. Timely too as young people feature in a lot of our culture wars, from the schools of Melbourne to the streets of Alice Springs.

We all should be setting an example, so thanks for the reminder.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Bergermeister23 Not even you know this. What a load of old shit.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@judgek1963 @Bergermeister23 Ohhh… whispers!

Twit.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@PaulineHansonOz Says the nationalist that infiltrated parliament and stymied heaps of good policy.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Hung_Mung @BuggaThe @Laszlo76247344 @PaulineHansonOz @AlboMP You mean Scott and Paul above right?

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@PaulineHansonOz @AlboMP But Pauline, you’ve been able to express your own repugnant and extreme views in that other representive chamber we call parliament.

Nobody knows better than you how silly ideas based on bad faith are rejected by such bodies.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@GrantB95031648 @SkyNewsAust Pointless motherhood statements in support of opponents of equality won’t get us there sport.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Ben16222067 @imbalaska Yeah OK.

[Colin Stokes @ColStokes]

@Ben16222067 @imbalaska Patriarchal whiteness.

But again, don’t mistake respect for the right to vote for the right to talk nonsense in support of that vote. That’s not a right.
