Shows like 4 Corners, Foreign Correspondent, Catalyst and 7.30 are still very good for the most part, though they have their moments. But things...
Yeah I'm not a fan of the Apartheidesque mentality we have in Australia where Aboriginal Australians have to be treated differently as a product...
He is mistaken. There were laws restricting marriage for Aboriginals, and Aboriginals had to get permission to marry white people from the Chief...
What happened in 1964? Or do you mean th 67 referendum? Our Constitution doesn't have a bill of rights, so it's still not against the...
If you're going to feel ashamed and apologise for all the wrongs that British colonialism inflicted upon people, then you'll need to apologise to...
Indigenous people were never "officially listed as animals" as far as I'm aware....
Haha, sadly it's probably too much wishful thinking to assume it'll be anything but more of the same. Probably another slim majority, presumably...
Yeah I've gotta say I'm not really a fan of these "Days" for things, especially if it's not born out organically from a popular movement. I'm...
Haha I know how you feel! ScoMo seems infinitely more palettable when you directly compare him to Dutton as opposed to just looking at him in...
I think Morrison will actually be quite popular. He kinda gives me Howard vibes. If Shorten couldn't beat Turnbull I don't see how he beats...
Well, the Liberal party have salvaged something from the damage that Abbott and co have inflicted on them. Dutton was the sacrificial lamb in...
If Australia doesn't have "decency" now, then we've certainly never had it in the past. The world isn't going to suddenly become a utopia if all...
This happens all the time in the world in general, just no one usually bothers to write an article about it because it's not very interesting. Of...
Don't know what "round robin voting" is, sounds like some form of preferential voting. The electoral college is outdated, so are the primaries....
It just shows the weakness of the US Presidential election process. It's ridiculous to have two candidates who approximately 50% of the population...
Solar panels are cheap because of economy of scale, and ironically deflated energy prices from cheap coal. Politicians mostly talk rubbish about...
Any large event. Yes even hipsters make fools of themselves. I am a young person, really doesn't matter how "classy" a person thinks they are when...
Manufacturing and mining aren't mutually exclusive. Super high tech but very cheap products, I'm sure no one has thought of that before. Almost...
Yeah they recycle existing steel, which is good but doesn't replace coal in iron refining. Brings up a good point though, steel created with coal...
I'm talking about large events with a cross section of people, not a small gathering of privileged hipsters. Have no idea why people get so...
This tends to be what happens when lots of young people get together and binge drink. Mostly harmless, if somewhat embarrassing. What I object to...
The steel industry will transition away from coal eventually, but the solutions are no where near as well developed as renewable electricity, or...
Turnbull is doing the opposite of a "Rudd", he's very much about the "team decisions" and not sticking his neck out. Can't really blame him after...
Dream PMs maybe Geoff Robertson, Gail Kelly, Dick Smith or David Morrisey. PM Dick just sounds right. Out of the politicians decent picks would...
I only really see upside to the first article. Demand for steel is only going to keep increasing. There's no real alternative to coking coal, so...
