@Pedlar56230 Basically seems that way, that’s why I asked to get to the specifics. If our two choices are labor and labor that is a bit more economically savvy then we essentially have no opposition, which is never a good thing. We need discussion and debate if we want the best outcomes.
@AT140751841839 I didn’t know this was an issue. Isn’t parental leave already based on income from your employer and then goes to a default that is the same for all women regardless of income. Can see what you mean in a ‘vibe’ sense.
@meh8hei @joegarra61 High tolerance for all is good. I agree with you that a default position of automatically celebrating anything others believe or do is too far.
@taipan168 E.g.
I assume any pushback to trans comes under culture wars? Those against hormone blockers and affirmative surgery for kids and pro womens safe spaces have been vindicated by the cass report and unanimous uk supreme court ruling on the definition of a woman.
@taipan168 Isn’t pushback against at least parts of each of those issues simply pragmatic? I’m sure you’d agree that to do what you’re calling for here to its fullest and most extreme would be a disaster. Doesn’t it require a counter view to balance the end result?
@BikoKonstantin1 Dual incomes became the norm which inflated prices and now a single income isn’t enough.
Choice is now no kids and struggle or have kids and struggle even more.
@AvidCommentator Sorry but this list is mostly bonkers.
Liberals plan for first home owners was probably equal to labor’s.
Talking about cost of living being a LNP negative after Labor’s term is crazy.
What personal freedoms did the LNP attack, and how is ALP pro personal freedom?
@TMFScottP People voted for freebies. Union members- overpaid gov projects. Add in NDIS business owners and recipients (is that most of Australia now?). The entire Labor campaign made out that the liberals were going to remove Medicare 😂
Left/ right was hardly a factor in my opinion.
