I'm not fucking laughing.

Basically, if you voted liberal, you're my sworn enemy, and I literally want to kill you. I'm not speaking figuratively, metaphorically, or allegorically.

I actually want to nail your face to your fucking legs, until you die.

Thank you for handing the country back to Howard, so our civil liberties can be encroached upon further, mixed with a heady dose of Christian Family values that I cleary don't want.

So we can put up a big wall around Australia so refugees (remember that word? You know them as "queue jumpers"), can't pollute the lovely water in the new swimming pools in Grammar schools all over the country. We don't want people "like that" in Australia.

So we can lock up our gay couples, so we can regulate against love, on the basis that it isn't for procreation. And so we can make sure that babies that need adoptive parents can never be handed to those abominations against God. Heaven help us if a household of two men or two women try to love and support a child.

So we can ensure that only the richest of the rich can afford to attend University. There's something incredible Huxley/Orwell/Toffler-esque about this, but of course I'd say that...I was lucky enough to actually attend University.

So we can continue to make up our own rules concerning the Kyoto agreement, just like the U.S.A. Obviously I'm lacking in intelligence, because I can't see how polluting more will decrease pollution. Is there something I'm missing?

So we can continue to be Governed by a party (and now a Senate- where is the voice of dissent now?) that history has proven has lied to us all. He lead you all down the garden path, he thought you were all too stupid to care, and you know what? Damned if he wasn't right! He lied to your faces, and you gave him the keys back, when we actually had a chance to show the world we are a nation with a conscience. "There's something, to me, incompatible between somebody who claims to be a refugee and somebody who would throw their own child into the sea," Yeah? What about a nation that thows its children and its poor to the dogs?

And the thing that makes my blood boil, and tears well up in my chest as I frantically type this is:

Now no-one will ever say "sorry".
You have sent a strong and clear message to the indigenous people of this country, that it's your country now, and not only can you do what you want with it, but with them also.
You are condescending to people who's sophistication in living off the land was unparalleled. A people who produced medicines from the rainforest, who developed sustainable methods of hunting and gathering, and who had polyrhythmic musical traditions 30,000 years before the snot-nosed Western classical tradition had even been invented.

Well I am sorry.
The stolen generation were stolen, not saved. They were ripped from their beautiful culture, under the same banner of God-fearing family values you fucking asshats have just brought out fresh for '05. And the worst thing is, you're so ignorant you still have no idea just how badly your vote yesterday is gonna jump up and bite you in the ass. You have voted to lose your civil liberties. You have handed over more power than ever before in history, to a Government that lies to you as a matter of course.

It's not about race, it's not about colour, it's about money.
If you have it, you're golden.

If you don't, move here as soon as you can.




There is a fault line right across this nation tonight, and I feel it inside me also.
I am truly ashamed to be an Australian.

The real decline starts now.

This is knifey, from 'the internet'.
