Actually I retract my statement regarding the march towards economic Marxism. I do not believe this is to goal. Rather it is economic Fascism, and we do see the intertwining of the above social issues with multinational companies. For example the insisting upon an ESG score, facilitated by the giant fund managers such as Vanguard and Blackrock.I agree that those social policies are infiltrating society to a disturbing degree, but I can't really see Marxist economic policy coming along with it. Both sides of politics want to cut taxes rather than raising them and Labor these days (and in the past with Hawke and Keating) were keen to sell off government assets and to deregulate markets.
Some of us may think they went too far.
the ALP just act out the greens policiesOkay, my opinion:
Economically, in general, don't see extreme left practice in Australia. Though the ideology does exist in the Greens. Thankfully, they don't have the cards on the table.
In social policy we... and the West in general... Have gone a long way down that road:
Postmodernism
Critical theory
Critical race theory
Gender ideology
DEI
Economic equity
Open borders/ cultural relativism
Replacement theory
Anti white propaganda
etc etc etc
In the establishment of the above, there is a strong movement to implement Marxist economic theory, via this back door.
It became just another platform, for one sided opinion pieces.ABC axes Q&A after 18 years.
I rarely watch it these days.
ABC announces 40 redundancies in restructure that sees the end of Q+A
Launched in 2008, Q+A was an agenda-setting program that pushed politicians beyond their standard talking points.www.abc.net.au
That's what I thought, it seemed a bit inappropriate IMO from an Aust journo, a bit like asking Joe who was driving the big chair, when he was having memory issues.ABC journalist John Lyons had a go at Trump over his business dealings and got a sharp rebuke.
'You're hurting Australia': Trump hits out at ABC journalist, flags Albanese meeting
Donald Trump takes aim at the ABC's Americas Editor during an extraordinary exchange at the White House, as the president suggests he will meet Prime Minister Anthony Albanese "very soon".www.abc.net.au
Was Trump's affairs any business of our ABC? Surely the US media should deal with those things?
Will be interesting to see if the Four Corners episode on Trump gets canned.That's what I thought, it seemed a bit inappropriate IMO from an Aust journo, a bit like asking Joe who was driving the big chair, when he was having memory issues.
It really is a U.S issue and it looks like the ABC is going to make Albo's meeting start on an awkward footing.
Maybe the ABC could ask Albo the same question, I'm sure Albo would tell them to mind their own business. Lol
Wonder why they never did any previous investigations into US officials family business dealings.Will be interesting to see if the Four Corners episode on Trump gets canned.
I can't think of a better use of my tax dollars. It's good to see us American taxpayers are getting benefit from our American funded American public broadcaster to hold our American politicians to account.That's what I thought, it seemed a bit inappropriate IMO from an Aust journo, a bit like asking Joe who was driving the big chair, when he was having memory issues.

It will be interesting to see how Albo back fills the hole.It was a dumb thing to do you can’t question that directly to a self proclaimed dictator well at least in his imagination.

Just imagine if a U.S right wing journo, media bombed an Albo meet the press in in Canberra and started asking Albo about how he could afford the house he bought when he wasn't on mega bucks.
The loonies would start screaming, as they should.
WTF would Albo's house buy, have to do with a right wing rag from the U.S? Yet the loonies chant on.
Absolutely, the problem is, the left wing journo's have been given so much free reign, that they now feel there are no boundries.Well it comes down to the fact that like him or not, Trump is what he is, and if a taxpayer funded journo is hurting Australia's interests, then the said journo and his organisation should be told to pull their heads in.

The problem with that is, it disenfranchises those that have different opinions and they get frustrated that they can't be heard.
That then leads to a venting of public frustration on the streets, fortunately we haven't arrived at that point yet and hopefully it doesn't eventuate.
I wouldn't mind someone in the media asking that reporter, how much his house value has gone up in the last 3 years and what he has done to justify that. Lol
Absolutely, the U.S cess pit politics is their issue, ours, is ours.Questions may well need to be asked about Trump and his business activities, it's just that it should be the US media asking them not ours.
Where is the Watergate spirit?
Too bad Robert Redford just snuffed it, he may have done something.
