+x+x+x+x+x+x+x+xNot sure if Squires is as left-wing as sometimes suggested or is just (understandably) appeasing to the typical reader of The Guardian... The left has become more regressive than the far right...hard for anyone to identify with it... other than the typical reader of the guardian of course. A ridiculous claim. Care to elaborate? Please start by defining 'regressive'. Political correctness gone mad....to the point where feelings trump facts. Safe spaces and the subsequent death of free specch....i could go on gramps. Got a spare couple of days? This is hardly the place for it though. Youre the only one making ridiculous claims pal. Thanks for the response. I agree this isn't the place, so I'll make this my last comment. You didn't define regressive so I'll do it for you: "regress = to return to a former or less developed state." Now let's look at a definition of conservatism: "any political philosophy that favours tradition in the face of external forces for chance, and is critical of proposals for radical social change." Notice any overlap? You seem to imply safe spaces are crucial planks of a progressive platform. This isn't the case at all. I'm obviously left-wing, and I'm indifferent to them. They're a fringe issue at best. Frankly, it's an oversimplification to assert that free speech is an absolute rule that means people can say whatever they want. Many here (possibly even you) would agree that Rebecca Wilson shouldn't have published the list of fans banned from A-league matches. It's a commonly-accepted view that freedom of speech doesn't permit defamation, and I'd suggest it needn't cover baseless abuse either. As mentioned above, I have no personal attachment to safe spaces. However if someone wants to set up a room that's explicitly free from abuse based on race, gender or sexual orientation that's their prerogative. It's hardly the society-wide death of free speech you're portraying it as. On the other hand, many conservative politicians pose a genuine threat to freedom of speech. You only have to look at the LNP's repeated attempts to influence the ABC's editorial tone, or assorted Trump quotes (e.g. when he said burning the US flag should be punished by "loss of citizenship or year in jail!") to see this is the case. Explain how setting a fire in public, using the flag of your forebears as fuel constitutes free speech? Zzzzzz A genuinely thoughtful and honest answer that completely obliterated the village idiot that is horto and that's what you pick out of it to bring your ridiculously childish arguments on the other forum over here. However, carry on as it's a Friday afternoon!!! Obliterated? Yeah. A genuinely ill informed and ridiculous answer laden with hypocrisy you mean. Hes in denial. Hes playing the lesser of two evils. Hes assuming my political leanings. Hes confusing breaking the law with free speech. Youre clearly too daft to extrapolate the obvious. As far as calling me the village idiot, i challenge you to a debate any day of the week on any topic. I will show you to be the narrow minded cretin you are. admittedly not a difficult task. And Youre the one who makes "idiotic" claims on this site...like your intellectual gem that italians assimilate into australia better tham greeks or serbs, a patently idiotic and discriminatory thing to say......but im the village idiot. ok davide, go back to sucking at music and working a dead end job. Ps. Youre just pissed i made you take the grosso test, and that you failed it, hypocrite. PPS. pepe the trump is right. Suck it up. Aha I am so sorry I missed this when it happened and I was in the mood. You are so far off the mark on so many things(and irony is clearly not your strong point) but the fact you care so much tells me I should let you have this one because you can't have much else. You are a gem. Enjoyed the cartoon too

+x+xThe Hans Moleman Gallop :laugh: Legit Lol'd as loud as it gets on the quiet carriage of the train Yep I lol'd as loud as it gets too in what was a very quite office this morning haha. That is a great comic today. The whole boo-zanis channelling of the Simpsons boo-urns is just classic. Then add to that the weetbix ambassador and mad Matt Simon and it is just one of the best.

+x+xThe increasingly ubiquitous David Squires has been interviewed by Brogan Renshaw who has made the ep available already from various feeds but who has not as yet got it in his ep list at http://www.behindthegame.com.au/blogs/podcast?page=1If you can't figure out the XML feed and don't subscribe to Itoons I guess BR will have the ep up sooner or later. In the meantime there's other good stuff there too. not up yet mate Non-bogan Brogan has fixed the site see http://www.behindthegame.com.au/blogs/podcast/football-illustration-david-squires

However, carry on as it's a Friday afternoon!!! free speech. Didn't follow the convo, but whoever was involved in the convo, do you know the Australian constitution has nothing in it concerning free speech? That's the American one...... Yeah, I knew. We have the implied freedom of political communication though. It’s not explicitly stated in the constitution, but is implied by sections 7 and 24.
