The Progressives have already passed my line in the sand long ago globally. Why we allowed these changes to take place God only knows. True Conservatives from both sides of politics will know exactly what I'm talking about. > CONSERVATISM is: a political philosophy advocating the preservation of the best of the established order in society and opposing radical change, or simply change for its own sake.

Good grief.... You know you lot are in such a state due to your inability to actually follow rules right. scaremongering about Covid and then calling people liars when it's the scaremongers that lie is just going a bit too far. If you bothered to follow the rules and limit your risk then you'd be much better off than you are today. I said ages ago that only a vaccine will start making a positive impact in the Us since the spread has gone too far. > If cv19 is so contagious and deadly why aren't they more afraid? What is the point of being afraid... its a virus, it's not Ebola... its a form of "flu"... and yes it can be deadly... your death count supports that. If you wore masks where appropriate... like Drs and Nurses do... if you kept a safe social distance... if you took proper sanitary precautions re coughing and washing hands etc... you'd be a whole lot better off today. And yes... I'm speaking from experience... national experience. As for the Elites... mostly they live in a bubble... and mostly it is a Covid safe bubble.

Well not all people are created equal... not physically, not mentally etc, etc. There will always be greater and lesser people. Talented and not so talented people. Should we treat all people "equally" if you mean by that fairly... I totally agree. Yes all people... unless severely handicapped... do make choices. I don't think people decide hmmm I think I'll be lazy today and some people who work their butts off do sleep in occassionally.

It's simply the world things happen, some good some bad. If you limit that to people though I'm pretty sure some people, some governments etc, can be unfair. In Australia we have as part of the traditional Australian identity...** the fair go...** Australians look down upon cheating, it is part of their character and those that break that tradition are looked upon badly, shunned and punished. Our National Cricket team brought national shame upon us a few years ago and the culprits severely punished compared to those from other countries guilty of the same things. As for resenting the success of others... it is simply jealousy... another negative trait. Most people aren't jealous.

As for blame... I've found that as a manager it never works out well. Of course one needs to know the details, the who, what, where and when... otherwise a proper solution will never be found. as for accepting credit for something you didn't do, that's just dishonesty and most people are not dishonest.

> Pledge 8 > I believe the most annoying sounds in the world are whining and complaining. I will never make them. If I am unhappy in my work, I will either find a new job, or find a way to be happy. I guess whining and complaining, like beauty depends on the eye (or ear) of the beholder. To complain about something or bring to the notice of those responsible for a problem is important. To stay silent when there is an issue that needs addressing is simply... wrong. Surely if things can be done better or if a problem is impacting productivity or risking lives etc... surely someone must speak up. Sure you can leave your job if you are unhappy... if there's another job to go to that is. but sometimes finding a way to be happy is not as easy as it seems. Also if there is a problem and your bringing it to the attention of management leads to no solution... it might be better and or safer to find a new job.

Lightman comments on Dec 14, 2020:

Exposing mystery and menace of Chinese Communist Party membership Robert Potter and David Robinson 12:00AM December 14, 2020 50 Comments What does it mean to be a member of the Chinese Communist Party today? Is it like being part of the party in Soviet Russia or in 1930s Germany? Are all members “true believers”? Or is it more like a trade union affiliation? The truth is we don’t really know because we’re dealing with a secretive totalitarian regime. And that’s why Monday’s revelations, published in The Australian, should prompt serious questions about how Australian companies and government agencies handle the question of how to do business with — and in — a one-party state. Most people in Australia encountered socialism, if they did at all, on university campuses. They may have encountered the odd bespectacled professor claiming to be Trotskyist or even the ancient original members of the Australian Communist Party. The word “communist” has a different meaning in Australia. Harmless, certainly not powerful, and slightly embarrassing, like a teenage poster that comes down at a certain point. We might comfort ourselves with the fact the contemporary membership of the CCP is as unrecognisable to us as it would be to Karl Marx. Many of its members would probably have little time for the bearded and carbuncled European. Marx has been a long-time embarrassment for Marxists and the latest and greatest embarrassment is that most members of the CCP would likely be the enemies of another Mao Zedong. So what then is the CCP today? Well, when Internet 2.0 was asked by the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China to investigate a purported membership list, we endeavoured to assist journalists. A fascinating project. As a people of the left, we are not interested in invalidating people based on their political beliefs. As a result, the project had to be handled carefully. The initial point was, as always, to assume everything we had was wrong. We investigated the source of the document and sifted the internet for signs of its existence. Unlike other cases, where communal resources such as Shodan and SecurityTrails might point to a path, this list wasn’t going to give up its origin so easily. Beginning with the structure of the data itself, some 1,957,239 individuals were identified by common fields. Additional details, including phone numbers and addresses, were included. Against known sources, this amounts to 2.1 per cent of the full number of party members. After significant investigation we found the original server was an open-source MYSQL database. Our team, ignoring the copy given to us by IPAC, found the same document dated April 16, 2016 and tracked it across social media. Our assessment is that it was uploaded to ...

Instead, she proposed enhanced trade partnerships with countries such as India, Japan and Indonesia. According to Rory Medcalf, head of Australian ­National University’s Security College, the population of the three nations is projected to be 2 billion by 2050.

# China Says It Remains Open to the World, but Wants to Dictate Terms China’s leader, Xi Jinping, is pursuing a strategy to make the country’s economy more self-sufficient, while making other places more dependent on it than ever. By Steven Lee Myers and Keith Bradsher Nov. 23, 2020Updated Dec. 1, 2020 **After Australia dared last spring to call for an investigation into the origins of the coronavirus, China began quietly blocking one import after another from Australia — coal, wine, barley and cotton — in violation of free-trade norms. Then this month, with no clear explanation, China left $3 million worth of Australian rock lobsters dying in Shanghai customs. ** Australia nonetheless joined 14 Asian nations and just signed a new regional free-trade deal brokered by China. The agreement covers nearly a third of the world’s population and output, reinforcing China’s position as the dominant economic and diplomatic power in Asia. It’s globalization with Communist characteristics: The Chinese government promotes the country’s openness to the world, even as it adopts increasingly aggressive and at times punitive policies that force countries to play by its rules. With the United States and others wary of its growing dominance in areas like technology, China wants to become less dependent on the world for its own needs, while making the world as dependent as possible on China. **“China wants what other great powers do,” said Yun Jiang, a researcher and editor of the China Story at the Australian National University. “It wants to follow international rules and norms when it is in its interest, and disregard rules and norms when the circumstances suit it.”** China’s strategy is born out of strength. The coronavirus has practically disappeared within its borders. The country’s economy is growing strongly. And China’s manufacturing sector has become the world’s largest by a wide margin, leaving other nations heavily dependent on it for everything from medical gear to advanced electronics. Beijing is also pushing back against President Trump and his administration, taking advantage of the political disarray that has followed his electoral defeat. Beijing’s confidence on the global stage now compounds the challenge China will pose for the incoming administration of Joseph R. Biden Jr. **In a flurry of speeches over the last week, Xi Jinping, China’s ambitious, authoritarian leader, laid out his vision for this new world order, while making clear his terms for global engagement.** He reiterated at the annual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, an important regional forum, that the country had no intention of going it alone and “decoupling” its economy from the world.

China’s Hundred-Year Marathon In The Hundred-Year Marathon, Michael Pillsbury marshals a lot of evidence showing the Chinese government has a detailed strategy to overtake the US as the world’s dominant power. They want to do this by 2049, the centennial of China’s Communist revolution. The strategy has been well documented in Chinese literature, published and sanctioned by organizations of the People’s Liberation Army, for well over 50 years. And just as we have hawks and moderates on China within the US, there are hawks and moderates within China about how to engage the West. Unfortunately, the hawks are ascendant, embodied most clearly in Xi Jinping. Xi’s vision of the Chinese Communist Party controlling the state and eventually influencing and even controlling the rest of the world is clear. These are not merely words for the consumption of the masses. They are instructions to party members. Grand dreams of world domination are part and parcel of communist ideologies, going all the way back to Karl Marx. For the Chinese, this blends with the country’s own long history. It isn’t always clear to Western minds whether they actually believe the rhetoric or simply use it to keep the peasantry in line. Pillsbury says Xi Jinping really sees this as China’s destiny, and himself as the leader who will deliver it. To that end, according to Pillsbury, the Chinese manipulated Western politicians and business leaders into thinking China was evolving toward democracy and capitalism. In fact, the intent was to acquire our capital, technology, and other resources for use in China’s own modernization. It worked, too. Over the last 20–30 years, we have equipped the Chinese with almost everything they need to match us, technologically and otherwise. Hundreds of billions of Western dollars have been spent developing China and its state-owned businesses. Sometimes this happened voluntarily, as companies gave away trade secrets in the (often futile) hope it would let them access China’s huge market. Other times it was outright theft. In either case, this was no accident but part of a long-term plan. Pillsbury (who, by the way, advises the White House including the president himself) thinks the clash is intensifying because President Trump’s China skepticism is disrupting the Chinese plan. They see his talk of restoring America’s greatness as an affront to their own dreams. In any case, we have reached a crossroads. What do we do about China now?

I hope you will make a good use of it.” - John Adams “The punishment of wise men who refuse to take part in the government is to live under the government of worse men.” - Plato “Our destruction, if it come at all, will be from…the inattention of the people to the concerns of their government, from their carelessness and negligence.” - Daniel Webster Others not so much and some not at all... “Our unalterable resolution should be to be free.” - Sam Adams With freedom come the need for responsibility and sometimes some freedoms need to be curtailed for the benefit of all. “Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost.” - Thomas Jefferson Ah the press or as we have today the Media... they are free... and look what they've done... they no longer report facts and truth. “all power is inherent in the people; . . . it is their right and duty to be at all times armed.” - Thomas Jefferson Yet another statement from another time that is basically not beneficial, necessary or needed in today's world. “Those people who will not be ruled by God will be ruled by tyrants.” -William Penn Depends on the God doesn't it? “It is the duty of the patriot to protect his country from its government.” - Thomas Paine Totally paranoid statement for any proper Democracy.

I live in Australia we have a very good idea about China... we were one of the first countries to recognise and officially visit China when it started to open up to the world. It is our largest trading partner and I now use that term loosley. We have done our utmost to be a good reliable partner to China and looked forward to them taking their place amongst first world nations. They are now a Superpower and have the 2nd largest share of global GDP... hardly a developing nation anymore. ## GDP by Country # Country Share of World GDP 1 United States 24.08% 2 China 15.12% # China’s aggression scares region into silence Amanda Hodge 9:29AM December 3, 2020 If Australia’s closest Asian partners and allies are concerned about China’s escalating aggression against a smaller nation, they are keeping those worries largely to themselves. While New Zealand, the US, Britain and France have all spoken out recently in support of Australia in the face of an onslaught of trade punishment from China and provocations from its anti-diplomats, the silence from Asia has been deafening. Taiwan — a nation regarded by China as a breakaway province — is the only one to publicly express solidarity with Canberra this week after a fake image of an Australian soldier holding a knife to the throat of an Afghan child was tweeted by a Chinese foreign ministry official. Taiwan’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Joanne Ou told The Australian the two countries “enjoy a great relationship based on our common values of freedom, democracy and human rights”. “Australia has recently come under attack by the People’s Republic of China, which spread blatantly false information and an altered image. The government and people of Taiwan stand with Australia,” she said. On Wednesday the foreign ministry uploaded a picture of Australian wine to its Twitter account with the caption; “We stand in solidarity with #Australia by serving #FreedomWine at @MOFA_Taiwan”. But it is a lonely voice in Australia’s backyard. Requests for comment from Indonesian, Malaysian, Singaporean and The Philippines foreign ministers and senior Vietnamese officials have been declined or ignored as some of Canberra’s closest partners and allies seek to stay out of Beijing’s firing line. Only The Philippines’ outspoken defence secretary, Delfin Lorenzana, responded, telling The Australian that Manila had for decades protested Chinese provocations in its own backyard, to little avail, and he did not expect China would back down in its dispute with Australia. ## “They are now acting as a hegemon,” he said. A reticence to intervene in other countries’ internal or bilateral matters is hardwired in many of our neighbours, and even enshrined in the ...

China 2020 and "1984" make a very interesting comparison. I think they took the book literally and thought... gee what a good idea. Apparently it is the CCP's idea of Utopia.

Canadian Elliot Page is a "boy" ?????? Really? She is 33 years old and the thing that hit me immediately is that she identifies as a boy. A boy... Sorry... if this doesn't prove the stupidity of these people then nothing does. She might like to think she's a boy, but she obviously isn't. People calling her, he or him, are simply humouring this demented fantasy. People used to be put in padded cells for this sort of behaviour. Logically Miss Page... if you were MALE.... you would be a MAN... 33 years old makes you a MAN not a BOY.

Not the same thing at all... not yet.... Trump hasn't lost yet and Biden is not President Elect yet. But wouldn't it be nice and ironic to see 4 years of total opposition and political and media collusion to oust Biden and have him impeached... I mean... fairs fair right?

Lightman comments on Dec 1, 2020:

Well there is certainly enough there to have big doubts about the election and its result. But then nothing is impossible... however... the result does stretch credibility of what is actually possible. Biden... This is a guy that virtually didn't campaign. This is a guy whose rallies could have been held in a Sardine can. This is a guy who didn't actually win the debates. (which btw were loaded in favour of the Democrats) This is a guy who is obviously in the grip of Dementia, which will only get worse.

Is Race a social construct?

Lightman comments on Nov 30, 2020:

Race is a biological "construct", if you choose to call it that, where humans can be broadly defined as belonging to one of 3 main racial groups: negroid, caucasoid and mongoloid. It is a based on genetics and as such cannot be a "construct" in the negative use of the word. It is a grouping based on facts. It is not a "social construct". Racism however is a flawed ideology where race is used as a determinant of superiority or inferiority. In today's world where the "mixing" of races is continually growing, the racial grouping of people becomes more difficult and more irrelevant.
