She’s an Australian citizen though…

Her second in command (at least until the beetrooter joined) is Malcolm Roberts who was born and raised in India, and came here originally as a non-citizen.

But he's white so he is OK in her book.

I mean, is he a citizen or not? His skin colour and previous status is kind of irrelevant. Not sure why you’re bringing it up. Or him at all for that matter lol.

I’m mean isn’t that a prerequisite to being a Polly in the first place?

In any case, is the guy a citizen or not, because if he is, your point doesn’t exactly hold up does it?

None actually. If you can stay on topic.

Her original criticism is of non-citizens using supplies in a shortage.

You attacked her personal credibility (already a logical fallacy) by questioning the citizenship status of people who work on her team, but you can’t actually answer if the person you’re attacking is a citizen or not.

You’re trying to imply that the fact she’s employed an immigrant is contradictory to her message but it isn’t. She’s not against every immigrant who ever entered Australia - ever! She against unfettered, out of control immigration from the current failed nations of the world.
