Unserious People In Serious Times

Have you ever met an unserious person?

I have.

Plenty of them.

What characterises an unserious person?

Professionally, someone unserious is unable to grok the seriousness of their role, unable to take accountability for their actions, and is unwilling and unable to lead their people in times of hardship towards ‘true North’. 

Indeed, not only do they not know where true North is, they instead stumble around in the dark. 

First West, then South, then they double down in the exact opposite direction to where they should be going, and when they arrive they triumphantly frame it as a victory even though no one agrees with them.

Unfortunately, Australia is led by fundamentally unserious people, and we are at the beginning of serious times. 

Serious times?

What does that mean, RA?

It means the Australia you grew up in, and your place in it, is on ground that is moving beneath your feet, and instead of being able to stop the ground moving, the people in charge are trying to use a sledgehammer to make you fall through the cracks whilst pretending they are blind to it. 

Let’s get specific here.

The most famous beach in Australia, and arguably the world, just suffered one of the worst terrorist attacks in modern times, caused by radical Islamic extremists. 

So you would think, if we had a serious government led by serious people, the first thing they would do is ask:

‘Why are there Islamic extremists in this country?’ 

Then they would ask:

‘How do we get rid of the ones already here, and stop more of them from coming?’

That’s it.

That is your starting point for beginning a serious investigation into why dozens of innocent people were injured and murdered in Bondi.

What do we get instead?

Instead, we get the same corrupt government that has led us down a dark path, doubling down in the dark… no, sprinting in the dark, towards a direction that only they know - one that benefits them, and allows them to regain control of the ‘frame’.

What is ‘frame’?

Frame is when someone accuses you of something, and tries to bully you into a corner by forcing you to agree with presumptions you don’t agree with by framing them as statements. 

‘You must agree to this, right? Or you’re a bad person’ … that type of vibe.

The Australian Government is trying to get everyone to fall into their frame, which in this case is:

‘You’re a bad person if you don’t agree we should strengthen hate speech laws, ergo you must hate <insert religion here>!’

In response to the Bondi Terrorist Attack, the Government has done everything to make you look the other direction.

Anything other than turning the torch inwards on themselves to question their own legitimacy. 

They’re strengthening hate speech laws, they’re saying we don’t have free speech but we instead have a multicultural society (wow, that’s great, thanks Chris Minns, who made you the moral philosopher of Australia - can we put that to a Referendum mate?), they’re strengthening gun laws…

Notice what they’re not doing?

They’re not talking about mass migration and they’re not talking about Radical Islam. 

No, no, how could they talk about that?

You see, the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was making Liberals think that everyone is the same.

Everyone is not the same, and anyone who has met more than just a few human beings could tell you that.

Do you have any idea how stupid you have to be to fall for this propaganda that everyone is the same therefore we can import them from anywhere and they’ll just slot right into our beautiful, beaming multicultural society with infinity languages, several religions, and God knows how many blood feuds imported across history right into our borders?

How many decades of propaganda and fear does it take to convince a human being to ignore their own survival instinct?

That is how patently ridiculous the situation has become.

You’ve got bollards in major cities now, increased public police presence, cancelled Christmas events, yet you allow these radical extremists into the country and criticise the very people who have been warning you about them?

Now you want to ban those people from even speaking about the situation via de-facto censorship laws?

WTF.

How weak have we become as a society that we are unwilling to say ‘No’ to anyone.

How about a simple ‘No’.

No, we don’t want these people here.

No, they don’t represent us.

No, ‘modern’ Australia doesn’t want infinity languages and cultures.

No, the government’s response is not good enough.

No, multiculturalism is not worth sacrificing free speech for.

No, this is not the Australia we grew up in.

And no, these are not serious people in charge.
