Not the same scenario. The equivalent would be these comedians doing a set that was paid for by the White House, with a list of restrictions on what could be said. Which would receive just as much backlash

We already know that isn’t going to happen though. The smug raisin was impeached twice, has raped children with Epstein, and is currently declaring LGBT+ and their allies as terrorists. If those things weren’t enough to have him locked away, what will be?
I honestly think the most justice we could hope to see would be his bloated, festering body finally giving out on him on national television. But I doubt his retinue will give us that joy.
I don’t think this is an image that you could view openly in a regular workplace, even if there is no dick and balls in the image. It’s a raunchy screenshot from a porno.
If my representative was using a robot to decide how to promote their ideas, I’d be pissed.
These people were elected to represent the people based (presumably) on their own words and opinions. If they can’t muster the energy to support their constituents themselves, without relying on a robot to spew up generic bile, then they should step down and let someone who cares do it.
Ah, these images have been a staple in tourist gift shops for decades! Fridge magnets. Tea Towels that are for looking at, not for using. Stubby holders. Keyrings.
THIS is Australian culture.
To be fair, I am almost certain that Pete here doesn’t actually know what happened at Wounded Knee. He knows there was a ‘battle’, and that there were ‘Injuns’ involved. Probably was that some patriotic Americans defended themselves against the savage natives, like in the cowboy movies! Those cowboys deserve their medals!
Of course, now that the US secretary of defence has tweeted his ignorance on a social media platform, there is no taking it back, or apologising for his misunderstanding. He can only double down and defend a massacre.
So because we can’t immediately fix our world, we should abandon all hopes and dreams of a better future?
If people want to envision a future for mankind that is a bit farfetched, what’s the harm? Let it inspire people to make the world a better place. Better than being a cynical prick who scoffs at any sort of positive ideology.
Eh, I feel like Alien Earth should exist without Predator. They are very different franchises, and AvP stuff becomes action-schlock over horror.
Now, a dedicated AvP show, that’s another thing…
“Well intending people”?
No one that went to those marches was ‘well intentioned’. The people who went to these marches didn’t go because of any reason based in fact. They went because things are shit for the middle and lower class, but it’s easier to blame foreigners than to hold corporations and the rich to account. The people who marched are doughy brained racists, who were stupid enough to go to a rally that fascists attended, and then cheer them on.
Immigration numbers have been on the decline for the last 18 months after the expected post-Covid jump. This is coming from the Australian Bureau of Staristics: https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/people/population/national-state-and-territory-population/mar-2025 Immigration is a boost to our economy, and restrictions on the type of workers who are immigrating already exist to boost the workforces that white Australians are leaving fallow.
My aunt went to the local march. My aunt who is married to my uncle, the first generation immigrant. But he obviously doesn’t count because he was born in Ireland. The fascists may have put some things in her head that day, but she went to the march of her own volition.
A few more people to throw on the ‘will step over the bodies of trans people for the bag’ pile.

And how many of these comedians hold their tongue regarding religion and people of power when performing in their home country? Or when touring internationally on non-state-funded tours?
Don’t take my opinion of these comedians as anti-Saudi. I was plenty anti-Saudi before this. If these ‘comedians’ agreed to take money from the US president to not make mean jokes about him, I’d be just as disgusted at their lack of spine.
