@MattH093 Considering the Nationals are included there, the Greens might already be outpolling the Libs if we expect that the Nats are more than 2%.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

This is the most right wing voter polling in this colony’s history.

The biggest reason that there’s not a Liberal-One Nation government coming up is poor discipline with preferences amongst right wing voters.

It’s time to get organised.

I want to go back to the good old days I had great relationships with my AFRICAN SERVANTS.
Oh lord, the white privilege is showing.

Genocide lovers.

Fun fact: Delta has featured at events that have been targeted for connection to genocide before. There’s basically a staple of acts like her (and Jessica Mauboy) that make money by being the ‘apolitical’ ones willing to undermine a boycott.

Good luck at the Eurovision Grand Final, Delta 🇦🇺

You’ve already made Australia proud. We’ll all be cheering you on.

@StrewthQueen What a waste of Fergalicious to literally just have Morphine stand there and watch from the back.

If only we had a Labor Govt…

It’s obv important to not overemphasise stuff like this, but the Newcastle by-election had the lowest vote for the majors that I’ve seen in NSW.

16% for Labor and 7% for Libs. I actually can’t point to any other poll they both contested and did this bad.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

@LeftieStats @TheOneCalledMe The fact that the Greens can do better does not absolve Corbyn and co. from the charge of being sectarian, bureaucratic, and controlling.

It in fact makes it worse when there are Greens members more confident in saying this than YP socialists whose party is being shredded.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

The far right are polling a similar level here as they are in the UK. Better even.

The main difference is that 6% swing for the Greens, and the desertion of Labor voters to separatist parties in Scotland and Wales.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

This gay guy who was in National Labor Students is now a One Nation MP. From Queer Officer to the far right. Cursed.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

@steveekwonder Yeah.

He was one of those whingey idpol people who were like the far left are the real bigots etc so never was a Green or socialist.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

@RodneyCroome Stahel posits that a refusal by Labor/Greens to listen and build bridges with the right is why the One Nation vote booms. It sounds good in abstract but evidence matters. What are examples of this by the Labor right Premier in SA today? How has he been too antagonistic to bigots?

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

@Peggysknapsack @PatrickLenton EA is very collaborative with the Zionist groups and compliant with Labor, so I don’t think it’s that smart lobbyists can’t see. I think it’s that NGOs want to get easy wins to present to donors, and Labor want headlines to ward off pressure.

[Omar Sakr @omarsakrpoet]

They gang-raped a Palestinian so brutally he was hospitalised. They did it on camera. When footage leaked, and the rapists were arrested, Israelis rioted to protect them. They said they had the right to rape. The Israeli lawyer who leaked the footage was arrested. This is Israel.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

There’s something really satisfying about building a union meeting and rolling a right wing bureaucrat who thought members were too meek to stand up.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

@Southpawpunch @LeftieStats But this is the crux of the issue, right. There is often a narrow claim that the reason the Greens fold in these positions is they’re insufficiently radical or not a working class base. This plays a role, but parliamentary roads will falter no matter the depth of red or green.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

@Southpawpunch @LeftieStats And to push this to a higher level, the formally socialist Syriza who has many working class voters also caved to IMF. Which I say not to be defeatist, but rather we should acknowledge the pressure is consistent and there’s no easy response to it.

[comrade.ev @EvComrade]

@Southpawpunch @LeftieStats I think the reality is that this is a challenge for socialist parties as well. We have a Trotskyist mayor in one of our cities, but when the early childhood educators asked for a payrise he said they could get Xmas gifts from families instead because the budget was ‘tight’.
