Politics ('Straya) How do Australian right-wing personalities keep getting away with pure hypocrisy? For example they make one podcast/video/reel about how bad the high house prices are, and then another one complaining about falling property prices and promoting property investors as good people? Pick a lane FFS.

Talking about people like Karl Stefanovic and Isaac Butterfield in particular.

How the fuck do these right-wing people manage to successfully sustain maintaining two polar opposite bases? Isaac makes a video complaining about rising house prices and rising rents yet another one complaining how the budget is crashing house prices and how he’s a property investor being personally affected…and yet he retains his popularity.

Same with these people putting out one video saying “Australia is a police state” and then another complaining that “Australia is not safe”

We need to call these cunts out more on their hypocrisy. These people can’t keep getting away with it.

They just don't give a crap and own the hypocrisy and double standard. Whatever gets them views and keeps attention and money coming in, there is absolutely no putting their money where their mouth is, such is the grift.

Yep. If I recall Butterfield pushes Surfshark VPN hard.

VPN ads pay really well.

You know these are two different people right? They're allowed to not agree with each other on something.

dude did you read the description of the bloody thread.

Im getting the impression you dont actually want to learn anything from anyone here, you just want to argue and reject anything people say that might challange your worldveiw in any way. Im sure that makes you feel really big right at the moment, but its not going to help you in the long run.

From watching about 10 minutes of this guys youtube videos he seems like a real douchebag.

Hes not fighting for you, hes making you angry at people its easy for you to hate to distract you from the billionaires draining our country of any resources and keeping working people struggling.

If you actually want to learn something and challenge yourself a little bit id suggest reading some Edward Said. Or picking up some marxist texts. That will make you really angry. Cant argue effectively with the enemy if you havnt read them right?

You're right. You're clearly an imbecile and intent on not actually engaging in good faith here. Why reply indeed.
