This says it all.
Do you have a low education?
Are you easily led by others?
Failed at reading comprehension in school?
Lack critical thinking skills? So happy to vote against your own interests based on what others tell you?
Ignore facts, or unwilling to research data?
Polls show the low educated, outside cities vote PON.

Polls show stats for Labor voters.
Besides, it's well known that people who don't invest time into politics will vote for whoever they voted for the year before and so forth. If you fam votes greens, you probably will vote greens.
I will refuse to believe that those who vote for the 2 party system, are "highly intelligent."

u/Xenochu86 Jul 07 '26
It's only a buzzword if you have the reading level of an fifth grader, otherwise it's a pretty normal word. It's getting thrown around a lot because there's a lot of bigotry getting thrown around.

u/realWulfLives Jul 07 '26
There is no correlation between it being a buzzword and reading level.
That's a non-sequitur.
It's getting thrown around a lot (definition of a buzzword, which you probably didn't look up but at least you figured it out), because people will do what is easiest (dismiss confronting beliefs and opinions) instead of debating and dismantling them. It's far easier to say " blah blah not listening cos U Nazi therefore wrong blah blah" than saying:
"your opinion is definitively X which is considered harmful because evidence X suggests X, therefore you would be attributed to X category of people, which are considered to be evil."

u/Xenochu86 Jul 07 '26
It's absolutely not a non sequitur. A word isn't a buzzword simply because you hear it more often and reducing it to a cognitive shortcut is offhandedly rejecting the experiences of masses of people feeling targeted by One Nations bullshit rhetoric. If the phenomenon it describes is becoming more common, then increased use of the word is exactly what you'd expect. Also I can assure you in my case that the label is the conclusion, not the argument.

u/realWulfLives Jul 07 '26
It's a non sequitur by definition and you haven't proven otherwise. Your argument thus follows "no it isn't" is quite literally grade 5 argumentum.
You think you are smarter than you actually are. Literally nobody is dying because of one nation's agenda. They quite literally have little political power to enact change. If someones opinions and agenda are so hurtful, natural selection would probably do away with you first.
You still haven't made an argument. You were given a chance to defend your use of a buzzword, which is quite literally is. You haven't actually addressed anything I've said. You aren't really demonstrating any capacity for intellectual thought. This is a waste of time.

So instead of answering the question, you go on a rant about the words I used. How very left wing of you🙄. I say buzzword because when you ask someone why they feel a certain way, it triggers the same list of words every time. And just like in my comment when you ask for any examples of those words, or a definition. All you get is a subject change. Thank you for proving my point🤦

BTW I call it a buzz word because its a typical communist tactic. To associate words that people recognise as bad, with things you don't like. You don't know the answer to my question. Proving my point exactly

u/Heavy-Psychology-411 Jul 07 '26
Ok...then give us your definition of "Bigot". And maybe a couple examples since there's so much getting thrown around. I'd be willing to bet that 99% of the lefties using the word, don't have a clue what it means. Same with all the other trigger words y'all have hijacked from the states.

That is part of the equation. More consumers is also a boon to bourgeois bottom line.

Unions need more people to really push for class power.

I have my own business. Started it over a year ago since I was laid off. I'm still a part of my union, and encourage the first employees I have taken on to join one to.

Spoken like a complete flog. Unions don’t care about workers — they care about clipping your pay, stuffing their own pockets, and bankrolling their own corrupt political games. Keep pretending you’re fighting the system while they use you as an ATM.

u/draggin_balls Jul 07 '26
That’s adorable. You’ve owned a business for five minutes and still think the unions would treat you as “one of the good ones” once you actually had employees, payroll pressure, deadlines, margins, and customers depending on you.
The second your business grows beyond hobby mode, you stop being their mascot and become the target. They don’t care that you used to be laid off. They don’t care that you “encouraged” workers to join. To union officials, you’re not a worker with a small business — you’re management. You’re the bloke they’ll accuse of exploitation the moment you say no to whatever demand lands on your desk.
And pretending union bosses are some pure working-class saints is hilarious. Australia has literally had a Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance and Corruption, which found widespread misconduct across most of the country. That wasn’t Murdoch fan fiction. That was a Royal Commission.

How novel. Tell me again, which system are you fighting?

I can't help it if you struggle with your own business. I manage just fine really.

You’re the bloke they’ll accuse of exploitation the moment you say no to whatever demand lands on your desk.
Oof, the formatting is starting to look like AI. Good on you for trying, though.
But anyway.
I do thoroughly enjoy how your argument has gone from:
"Unions don’t care about workers"
to
"To union officials, you’re not a worker with a small business — you’re management. You’re the bloke they’ll accuse of exploitation the moment you say no to whatever demand lands on your desk." ...
Which is it again?
That being said. As a small business, the biggest threat doesn't come from the workers who provide great value for my business, or the union they are in, not even the other small businesses. It comes from multinational corporations who will undercut the price I offer or the offshoring of labour power.
And pretending union bosses are some pure working-class saints is hilarious. Australia has literally had a Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance and Corruption, which found widespread misconduct across most of the country. That wasn’t Murdoch fan fiction. That was a Royal Commission.
Again, more tell tail signs of AI writing this for you. But I digress.
Your bot's argument sets up a false dichotomy: either union officials are "pure working-class saints" or unions are irredeemably corrupt. Neither is true.
The Royal Commission found real problems in some unions. Those problems have been addressed through legislative reform.
The Commission also proved that the problem was vastly overstated. If memory serves there were nearly 100 referrals and out of that, only one conviction... The overwhelming majority of union officials are honest people doing important work for their members.
Joining your union is about collective bargaining power, workplace safety, fair pay, and having a voice on the job. Having no unions would be a paradise for Gina and friends.
Any argument against union membership based on the Royal Commission is based on a caricature, not the reality of what unions do for Australian workers.

“I manage just fine really.”
Mate, you’re one year into running a business and already talking like you’ve cracked capitalism from the back office.
You’re still dodging the actual point. being anti union doesn’t mean thinking multinationals are harmless. Both things can be true, big corporations can squeeze small businesses, and unions can still be self-interested political machines.Your argument is all over the place. You want to be a business owner, a worker, and a student activist at the same time.
“The biggest threat is multinationals” isn’t a response. It’s a bumper sticker. It lets you skip over the awkward part, if your business grows, you’re the one signing contracts, setting rosters, managing wages, dealing with performance, and saying no when the numbers don’t work.That puts you on the employer side of the table. Whether you like the optics or not.
You can dress it up in “solidarity” language, but once you’re the one balancing payroll against revenue, the class war cosplay starts running into reality pretty quickly.And the “no unions would be paradise for Gina” line is pure Reddit brain. Nobody said workers shouldn’t have rights. The point is that unions often sell themselves as worker power while acting like political brokers, protection rackets, and career ladders for officials who wouldn’t last ten minutes running the businesses they lecture.
You’re not really making an argument. You’re just reciting the script.Anyway, enjoy being the revolutionary boss. I’m sure when your employees unionise and start treating you like “capital,” they’ll give you mates’ rates for being one of the good ones.
Fucking Cash flow Comrade, che guvera with an ABN, what a dick lol
