These are the ones who believe in the new neo-feudalist future the PoMo, faux Marxists preach. These are the ones who believe in the evolutionary differences between the 'aristocrats' and the 'peasants' and who believe that the world would be a better, happier place if we all just accepted our place in the global society and let the 'ruling class' rule:
"...consider the Utopian ruminations of Guardian columnist George Monbiot, whose urge to romanticise The Other - especially if The Other is brown and poor, and unable to challenge his bizarre worldview - is a thing to behold:These are the folk who occupy the high peaks of the political, academic, media, police and educational class:
It is impossible not to notice that, in some of the poorest parts of the world, most people, most of the time, appear to be happier than we are. In southern Ethiopia, for example, the poorest half of the poorest nation on earth, the streets and fields crackle with laughter. In homes constructed from packing cases and palm leaves, people engage more freely, smile more often, express more affection than we do behind our double glazing, surrounded by remote controls.
That’s right. Forget about sanitation and drudgery, and the limited options in life. Think instead of how happy these Ethiopian peasants are, these beings we should emulate, with their quaint little shelters made of leaves and packing cases. It’s just so adorable. And not a single remote control to harsh the egalitarian buzz. Like his Guardian colleague Oliver James - another anhedonic hypocrite stressed by the contradictions of being a well-heeled middle-class lefty – Mr Monbiot wants us to believe that “wealth causes misery.” Yes, wealth is bad for “us” – by which of course he means bad for you."
The current Australian Liberal Party’s inability to form a unified, while still-broad church is instructive. When Yassmin Abdel-Mageid slags the Anzacs, appalling anyone with a streak of decency, and is allowed by Foreign Minister Julie Bishop to keep her nice little sinecure as the token tame Muslim at Foreign Affairs, you know your father’s Liberal Party is dead, buried and cremated.We are living with the consequences of this 'vision' in South Australia; highest unemployment in Australia, lowest jobs growth, worst medical and family health results, worst schooling results, highest electricity prices in a State with the greatest share of natural resources etc, etc.Victoria is still catching up regarding time spent ruling, but they are surpassing us in imbecilic, Utopian ideals.
The Pynes, the Brandises, the Turnbulls, and so on, stick their elitist noses in the air and avoid even contemplating those of us who simply want jobs, decent organisations to work for, family, shared values, stable virtues. At a risk of offending Quadrant Online’s policy against salty language, the yen is for no-bullshit normalcy – a life in a community, in other words, that somewhat resembles the happy times we grew up in and still remember fondly. [Paul Collits]
The Victorian state spent more than a billion dollars paying NOT TO BUILD THE FREEWAY.
They spent a billion or more on a water purification pant they have never used (ditto SA), while water falls from the sky in such quantities that is causes destructive floods all over the state.
The jolly Green fanatics make sure no one burns off the undergrowth between the seasons and as a consequence they have one of the deadliest fires in their history and who do they blame? Why global warming of course.
Its like a bad movie but its real. And these 'benefits' are still in their infancy. Just watch and wait for the full impact of the socialist, Utopian dream to unfold in its entirety upon the average Victorian. The switching on the air-conditioning will be the least of your worries.
Unfortunately for our children, by the time the deliberately educationally bereft 'normal's' catch up to the real plan, it will be too late to do anything about it.
But looking on the bright side, its fools like this that will be the first to go in the new 'order'; history is proof of that.
