next step we re-Unify Korea
Tu-pac brother I know you tried to get peace in the Middle-East by writing poems but we have a real chance now.
Shine upon us so California can Party again

Huh
Itโs almost like they have cognitive dissonance
They knew!
Oy vey
"some sort of an MMA thing"
Dude sounds very knowledgeable.
Very intellectual.
Picking fight on a manlet like Shapiro
That's like asking Ted Cruz if he's Canadian
He's obviously Cuban
I mean Texan

Shooter is white

Shooter is not white

>Shooter is Islamic

Wrong.
Shooter is Muslim
> won't somebody please think of the Muslims, they're the real victims here.
But but
THE CRUSADESSSSSSSS
muh crusades
"Jihad means peacefully converting infidels to Islam"
Islam most feminist religion, wokest counter-culture of 2017 yolo
"Islamic Reliel USA" I can barely contain my laughter
kek
>islam
>feminism
wait
feminism loves islam
duh
JBP's theory on that is that feminists lack a strong male figure of dominance in their lives since they're surrounded by betas and omegas, and Islam is that dominant force they desire
At least he's brought it up that way before
^
Kek
It seems plausible
They want what they donโt have and what they donโt have is strong men
Nah, he quite clearly said, the alliance with Islam is purely ideological, to bring down what they consider the target of their hate: patriarchy a.k.a. western civilization.
^
But what happens when there isnโt western civilization to protect them?
^
Oh wait, it implies theyโre intelligent and know what theyโre doing
Which they arenโt
Theyโre retards like @โฟ Mittens โฟ
The point of an ideology is so you can act without having to think.

exactly
it's for people like @โฟ Mittens โฟ
@โฟ Mittens โฟ is a soyboy
Pretty interesting how the NN nerds are going about their campaign. http://www.pewinternet.org/2017/11/29/public-comments-to-the-federal-communications-commission-about-net-neutrality-contain-many-inaccuracies-and-duplicates/
"In total, 21.7 million comments were submitted electronically and posted online for review."
that's a metric fuck-ton of comments
"Of the 21.7 million comments posted, 6% were unique. The other 94% were submitted multiple times โ in some cases, hundreds of thousands of times. In fact, the seven most-submitted comments (six of which argued against net neutrality regulations) comprise 38% of all the submissions over the four-month comment period."
so it was basically a clusterfuck of who knows?
"The most common โnameโ... in nearly 17,000 instances ... [was] โNet Neutralityโ"
"โThe Internetโ also appeared as the name in almost 7,500 submissions. "
As a seperate name, "net neutrality" also had about 5,000 submissions.
I've been on the end of this. The campaigners were quoting 100ks of people had written in but we binned 90% of them cus they were cut paste
cut and paste ain't YOUR opinion
a whole load more were edited versions of a template they posted on facebook
didn't bin those but still....
So NN was full of shills?
Of course
What a shocker /s
This is why theyโll never get anything achieved
It can just be flagged as a bot shitting out spam and the lazy congressmen can just ignore what ever emails were unique
you know.
I was reading something unrelated to NN, yet it summed up why... or at least one of the reasons why, I am so skeptical of it
Many people seem to point to Australia as having a great healthcare system because of the mix between private and public
Just like the UK ๐๐ฟ
thus assuming it has a good balance between 'the big three' (that you supposedly can only have two of), being affordability, quality and accessibility
howeverrrrrrrrrrrrrr
what they don't tell you
Is that the government has bulldozed it's way into private health insurers and how they can provide them to their own customers
Let me find the relevant page on the Gov's DOH website
a'ight.
"Lifetime Health Cover is a Government initiative which was introduced on 1 July 2000, and designed to encourage people to take out hospital insurance earlier in life, and to maintain their cover over their lifetime."
sounds good, right? Get people off of public healthcare and into the private sector, save taxpayer dollars
"What is Lifetime Health Cover?
Lifetime Health Cover (LHC) is a financial loading that can be payable in addition to the base rate premium for your private health insurance hospital cover."
But how does it compel people to get private health?
"How do I avoid paying an **LHC loading**?
To avoid paying a LHC loading, you need to purchase hospital cover by 1 July **following your 31st birthday**. If you purchase hospital cover **after** this date you may be required to **pay a LHC loading** โ **2% for each year you are over 30**. The loading is **removed after 10 years** of continuous hospital insurance cover."
wait, *what*?
"For instance, if you **wait until you are 40**, you could be paying an **extra 20% on the cost of your hospital cover**. If you wait until you are **50**, you could pay **40% more**. And so on, up to a maximum of 70% more."
This is for the **next ten years**, btw
but what does this have to do with NN?
"In Australia, **private health insurance is not โrisk-ratedโ like most forms of insurance**. Private health insurers **cannot refuse to insure any person**, and **must charge everyone the same premium for the same level of cover**, despite their risk profile and **likelihood of using health services.**"
Look after yourself?
Eat healthy?
Sleep well?
Don't smoke?
Don't drink?
fuck you, pay the same as the guy who does
What the actual fuck?
Thatโs retarded
Even if the company would be willing to offer you a better, more appealing deal
they cannot
*E Q U A L I T Y*
Why should you charge the guy who **ABUSES** his body the same as a guy who takes care of himself?
Thanks @Reaps
That just proves liberal college students donโt know jack shit when they open their mouths here
MUH AUSTRALIAN HEALTHCARE
I suppose the argument is "what if there's only one health company that will cover you? Then they'd have a monopoly and charge whatever they want!"
If the government is swooping in and forcing all companies to fix their prices at a set rate, how is that any better than the monopoly?
So because they canโt charge the abuser more because of his risk, they just charge everybody more right ?
Well, that would make business sense
To cover the cost n shieet
Help pay for Peter's broken body with healthy Paul's money
Christ this shit sounds very Soviet
Price fixing
Noone even bats an eyelid
Are most aussies fucking statist sheep?
Neither did I, except I knew I had to take out insurance before I was 32
And that was only because of the threat of loading
I didn't actually look into it any further than that
Jesus Christ this is unfucking believable
theoretically I could just not take out private health insurance
*e v e r*
and never have to worry about the loading fee
Kek
and just rely on medicare
But
Why is it theoretical?
I can only assume I'm missing something there, because that seems like a painfully obvious choice
I'll need to dig into it some more
Exactly
It was my insurance company telling me over the phone about this, then they sent me the gov info on it
Why work when you can get money for free
Wow
written by the gov, so not 'spun' by the insurance company
What a nice fucking insurance company
Iโm compelled to like the company in this case
wow
But thanks for giving me fire to hit back with @Reaps
I just went to the page
It was 'updated' on the 7th of Dec
Yesterday ?!
wish I had archived it
Fuck
instead I just have a .txt document
here's what I copypasted at the time
When did you copy and paste?
the 7th ;p
they changed it a few hours after
anyway
Lifetime Health Cover is a Government initiative that started on 1 July 2000. It was designed to encourage people to take out hospital insurance earlier in life, and to maintain their cover.
In Australia, private health insurance is not โrisk-ratedโ like most forms of insurance. Private health insurers cannot refuse to insure any person, and must charge everyone the same premium for the same level of cover, despite their risk profile and likelihood of using health services.
LHC is a financial loading that can be payable in addition to the base rate premium for your private health insurance hospital cover. If you purchase hospital cover earlier in life, and keep it, you will pay lower premiums compared to someone who joins when they are older.
LHC loadings apply only to hospital cover. They do not apply to private health insurance general treatment cover (also known as ancillary or extras cover).
Wait
Dude
To avoid paying a LHC loading, you need to purchase hospital cover by 1 July following your 31st birthday. If you purchase hospital cover after this date you may be required to pay a LHC loading โ 2% for each year you are over 30. For instance, if you wait until you are 40, you could be paying an extra 20% on the cost of your hospital cover. If you wait until you are 50, you could pay 40% more. And so on, up to a maximum of 70% more.
If you are a new migrant to Australia, and are aged 31 or over, you will not have to pay a LHC loading if you purchase hospital cover within 12 months of being registered for full Medicare benefits.
If you delay purchasing hospital cover for more than 12 months after your registration, you will have to pay 2% more for each year you are aged over 30 when you purchase your hospital cover.
Any LHC loading that you pay will be removed from your hospital cover premium after you have held hospital cover for 10 continuous years. However, if you cancel your hospital cover after the LHC loading has been removed, you may become liable to pay a LHC loading again in the future.
If you were born on or before 1 July 1934, you are exempt from the LHC loading. You can purchase hospital cover at any time and pay the base rate premium.
Copy it again, put it in a new txt file and use file compare
See which parts have disappeared:
I already know what's been 'updated', believe me
maybe someone was like 'oh shit, *that* sounds bad'
ooo
someone archived it back in 2012
Hold up Iโm on mobile i canโt do it right now
let's see what it said then
yeah
I was implying they removed the bits about private companies being compelled to charge the same rate regardless of the individuals health risk
however
archive.is 2012 version appears to be nearly identical, save for a phone number and other minutae
Pretty annoyed at myself tho
Using archive.is is just not a habit for me
forcing companies to give products to people that don't meet their criteria always goes well ๐๐ฟ
google cahce has saved me
cached on 3rd of Dec
bahahaha
gotcha bitch
Hahahha
Noce
@Broo TulsiGang 2024 ๐ฌ๐ง ๐บ๐ธ yeah, it just results in shitter products or no products
Still puzzled why they'd randomly decide to remove that, though. I mean, it hadn't been updated since June, and those particular sections hadn't been touched since at *least* 2012
And I'm not tinfoil-hat enough to believe some gov employee saw someone access that webpage and then copy the text from it, and suddenly had an urge to scrub those particular lines
Yeah
Really makes you think
๐ค๐ค๐ค๐
<:think_cartoon:378717098618388491>
anyhoo
yeah
that concludes my presentation for tonight
Very interesting reaps
Very fucking interesting
anyhoo, next time you hear someone go 'yeah but what about Australia' let them know that private healthcare... isn't exactly entirely private
thanks for that reaps
you da best
pham
Meanwhile at Commmonwealth Headquarters naniPvp

Threasa kike
jfc.
Wow Iโm totally not shocked at all
Of course she faked the shit
two points
1) it's still claimed that all but the small note at the end of the yearbook is still true
2) why fucking make shit up in the first place, especially if the rest of is *is* credible?
_______________________
I read the npr piece, and unless I'm missing something (it *is* super-late here), this really doesn't seem like something someone should feel compelled to resign for
"Rep. Trent Franks, R-Ariz., is the third member of Congress to announce his resignation this week, saying that he had **discussed surrogacy** with two female subordinates.
oh *noooooeeeeeeeees*
Unless the implication is that he propositioned to fuck them and then take the child away from them at the end of it, I have nfi
But the way this reads, it could just as easily have been him simply wanting to discuss the topic *of* surrogacy
CALL AN AMBULANCE!
MAN DOWN, I REPEAT MAN DOWN!
Kek
Madlad
responses are great
What is this? text for ants?
IT'S ONLY FOUR CLICKS AWAY DAMMIT
They're trying to appeal to that significant trans demographic.
Could that be the thing that drives women out of politics? Men in dresses and makeup?
The responses are actually pretty intelligent
Palestinans are dirtbags
And thereโs no point in appeasing any of them
Really wish I'd gotten a copy of that newspaper now
Some 'expert in Islamic affairs' or something was all "zomg what was he thinking?!?!"
Meanwhile even the Labor party in Israel is like ๐ฏ about the decision
kek
fucking retards
Jerusalem already was the fucking capital of israel
no country had their embassy there
because
MUH ARAB FEE-FEES
these fuckers deserve to be defenerstrated
@Deleted User i am looking forward for the 4th intifada
Gaza will be bombed to the ground
Kek
Gaza will be Israeli after that
