Australian Political Discussion Thread 3.0

[Psycho Doggie]

All politicians are pedo scum *****.

Hope he dies in jail the demon ****.

Not all of them, but definitely far too many of them. Craving for power seems to be part of the territory. But I've worked with people who were falsely accused as pedos, and it destroys lives, so I'm careful with the accusation.

I was with my brother a few weeks back and we bumped into his old neighbour.

My brother had him kicked out.
The guy was sitting with a guy I know trying to use him to start on my brother.

Once his old neighbour worked out the guy he was trying to get on his side knew me, he got up and left.

My friend asked what the problem was?
My brother said he is a peado.
His old neighbour was also with another guy who stuck around a minute longer.

My brother said he used to see him hanging out with my old neighbour and then suddenly he had to leave too.

He gave me a weak bitch handshake before leaving.
I reckon he's probably a kiddy fiddler too?

It was a very weak handshake.
I believe a handshake gives you a lot of information about a man's character.

E.g strong handshake = strong man, independent and a leader

Weak handshake = women and child beater, cruel to animals and a peado etc.

I believe good sound evidence, such as documentation found on hard drives, properly done clinical interviews of victims, multiple unrelated reports, and such, are what tell us who the perpetrators are. I've worked with both victims of this evil, and people wrongly accused of it, and lives are equally destroyed. If we truly believe it to be evil, then we take very seriously the making of accusation, we don't throw it around based on something as weak as a handshake.

A weak handshake definitely means the person is of weak character though in general.

Doesn't always necessarily mean he's a peado.
But more than likely a wife and child beater and cruel to animals at least.

I've researched that one for myself.
I've heard it from older generations too.
A handshake says a lot about one's character.

A weak handshake is definitely a red flag!

Anecdotally, sure, probably the weakest handshake I've ever had was an Anglican priest, who I can only describe as slimey and I'm glad I've never seen him again.

However, I've also worked with people who were at their lowest ebb, and could barely manage a handshake (let alone a smile or look you in the eyes), but who, six months later, and after demonstration of much character and strength, were back on their feet, smiling, looking you in the eye, and whose handshake was impressive.

Should I have been making a report to the Police after that first meeting with them?

Wtf?
If you think you need to then do so?
I never said nothing about calling the police but just to be weary of people who have a weak handshake.

Obviously if someone is depressed or sick they aren't going to be 100%?

You should be able to read that from the handshake anyway!

I try not to read anything too serious from a handshake, that is the point. And when it comes to suspicions of someone being evil, I feel that it is disrespectful of genuine victims, and also of people who have been wrongly accused, to think of someone as evil without some strong evidence.

A weak handshake means weak character.
It's really that simple.

Funny thing is that most social media has a minimum age. Kids just lie to join.

should be up to the parents anyway to do this not the government lol

 

[CroydonDog]

Social media is a fucking cesspool - it leads to all sorts of negative things in kids.

I think its a good policy generally, but difficult to police - I guess devil is, as always, in the detail.

So many parents are asleep at the wheel and wouldn't have a clue about how things like social media can and are affecting their kids. There are a lot of things i wouldn't just "leave up to the parents" TBH.

true but anyone can lie about their age and make an account on social media so it's still pointless

This is also true - i don't know how the proposed ban would work to know if it will have any affect or not.

I saw a 4 corners episode recently on "kidfluencers", ie: kid influencers. Their parents basically managed their IG/you tube accounts to get around age limits. All just seemed so naive/ignorant of the dangers from paedophiles etc. The creepy comments that a 12yo girl would get made sure i would never in a million years do that with my kids (not to mention a kid that young can't provide consent).

They asked one mother of a approx 14 yo girl who did dancing/gymnastics the videos (and so you can imagine what she's wearing), where people could actually also pay for "exclusive content" and she had like half a million, mostly male followers, if she knew everyone who followed her kid. Of course she didn't.

I tell you what, i'm not looking forward to my kids being teenagers. Its hard enough for my almost 7 year old who has discovered roblox.

Sorry, this is getting somewhat off-track

It's a huge problem.
There are so many deadbeat parents.
I'm glad someone is at least attempting to get some control and accountability back into the issue.
It's worth a try as our children are under severe peer pressure, increasing numbers of pedos and just plain sick weirdos on line.
Our kids are worth at least trying something/anything to help with this problem.

Companies like Meta (who own FB, IG, WhatsApp etc) also have a responsibility. They are making billions out of it too.

For sure. Any legislation etc any Govt come up with must fall on them as well.
My point was we can't rely on parents to supervise their kids....most don't have a clue what they are up to on line.

Clover got re-elected. They love her in there even after pulling down an indigenous nominees posters lol
