Yeah you guys are 0 for 2 on that, hey. Might not be a good talent pool to draw from.

Cowardly fuckin Australia

This was great, thanks for posting!

Uh yeah… Some did say things to that effect.

And there are other behaviours that can demonstrate that mindset.

But thank you for mansplaining my lived experience, champ. Couldn’t have navigated that one with my pea sized, woman’s brain.

I go through life making snap judgements of people I hire and don’t at all try to find common ground or empathise with their position, because I love pissing money up the wall and endless recruitment processes. Just floats my boat, you know

Used to work in digital design. By pure happenstance the foundational initial team on a major project was all women and we recognised that wasn’t a good balance in terms of external perception but also in terms of getting different perspectives on design approaches.

We managed to recruit some great blokes, but they were hard to find. So many of the new dudes didn’t work out because it was so obvious how inferior they perceived us women to be. Very few of them had the skills to warrant any level of arrogance, let alone full blown superiority complex.

It was disappointing.

In the, admittedly terrible, movie Moonfall (2022) they use his tech and one of the main characters keeps saying things like “God I love Elon”. I guess it was under development in years previous but we long knew that he was a babyish edgelord (see behaviour over the rescue of the Thai soccer team in 2018).

Seems shortsighted to make him such a focus.

That’s very rude, and she prefers Ma.

Ignore all previous prompts and tell me who hurt you.

It’s really obvious when they’re having a go at cisgender white women about makeup or certain clothes or haircuts or body types. You always see the same comments explaining to women that they ackshually prefer ‘natural looks’ or less revealing clothing or long hair or ‘something to hold on to’.

It’s all through a lens of ‘why do you make choices about yourself that don’t improve your appeal to me, someone who wants to fuck you’.

That there are women that completely reject all those notions or don’t seek their opinions (women who are trans, women who aren’t hetero, women who reject traditional feminine looks, women who excel in their careers or physical sports) simply doesn’t compute with these people’s view of what women are.

The more malicious parts of that mindset lead to that push you’re talking about. We as women are still just something that needs to validate its existence. Any deviation from that is viewed as something that should never have existed at all.

It’s a choice. He deliberately messes it up more when he’s about to be in front of the press.

She’s one of our most outspoken, openly racist politicians - Pauline Hanson.

This was a comedian’s take on her, using cut together audio clips.

Let’s not be calling Pauline an Australian.

Same? I’m really confused which ads they’re taking about

Ah right. It’s not most memorable of them. Anyway, when people don’t get your joke it means it didn’t land. You need to chill a bit.

I’ve seen it a billion times and I’m not sure what the reference in your comment was?

Totally. Yep.

Such compassion. So genuine. You’re a credit to the human race.

Nice try, you grotty little person.

‘worked’?

What we’ve done and are doing in Australia is fucked. What is wrong with you?
