Considering almost half Tasmanian adults are functionally illiterate that seems like One Nation is doing pretty poorly in their core demographic. Maybe if more mining kicks off in Tassie Gina will give enough fucks about the balance of power and buy some electorates for her sock puppet party.

You still don't know what a communist is. I don't know what upsets me more about people like you, that you might be dumb enough to believe the shit you dribble, or that you are disingenuous and self loathing enough to confidently and stridently shout this shit knowing it is, in fact, shit.

Either way I think I am done with you, I have consistently delivered reasoned and cogent arguments in all of our interactions, you have dribbled shit. I already have a full time job I can't hold down another one shouting you down. So farewell, I hope one day you can reach a place of understanding that society needs to exist for the benefit of the most people not just the boot that's currently stepping on you.

Classic lost the argument projecting.

Nope. Just listening to the advice, often attributed somewhat dubiously to George Carlin, about not arguing with idiots.
