Why was it so much of an issue for Lidia Thorpe? Hmmmm

iirc she was acting like a massive twat during the whole thing, then she twated about with the King
What a legend.
and then she said proudly that she said the oath wrong (she swore an oath to the queens hairs not heirs or something) and then it became an issue
Oh no a First Nations woman is protesting incorrectly. Call the protest police before somebody gets upset. Oh, oops too late.
all in all, she was an attention seeking twat and got what she wanted…
You know you come off sounding like a misogynist twat when you use the language of misogynist twats right?

Could be worse, could come off sounding like Lidia Thorpe by thinking everything is racism and/or sexism.

I don’t mind knowing lots of shit is racist and sexist instead of hating on a First Nations woman all the time.

Good thing katter has a clean slate and definitely never did anything crazy or attention seeking.

I think you’re forgetting how uniquely annoying she was being at the time, she quit the greens because she was voting no for the voice (now who’s the racist?) and relationship with biker gang ex-leader, never ending drama

Do you hear yourself?

I guess not.

Oh, did she also try to weaken gun laws so her son-in-law could import automatic shotguns? How about suggesting that we conscript 13 year old and give them all guns? Maybe run a campaign ad that depicted her shooting rival politicians dead? I’m not a fan of Lidia Thorpe, but I think you’re missing the point that the media routinely portrays Katters “antics” as that kooky old guy, but actively demonises Thorpe. They’re both bloody annoying and crazy, there’s just a narrative being pushed.

Complete mystery, I guess we’ll never know.

Hmm 🤔

Its the reason why he disapproves of Charles being king.
Conservatives have an incredibly stupid reason for their disapproval of Charles - it because they don’t want Camilla, a divorced woman, to be queen.
Side note, these same idiots conveniently ignore the fact that Charles is also divorced.

Racism. The answer is racism.

Whoa, don’t jump to conclusions, it could just be good old fashioned sexism, hard to tell sometimes
