CPAC? Is it code for HATE!

The Catholic Boys Daily relied on a great deal of xenophobia in the olden days just to keep the circulation going. Cos foreigners pose an EXISTENTIAL THREAT!.

Bloody hell, since they closed down “Der Sturmer”, its been hard these past seventy five years to get a gig where you can preach with some passion, your entitlement to destroy untermenschen. But we’re impressed with the Conservative Political Action Conference. 

We need more conservative political Action. Preserve the right to be a BIGOT! And learn with all your heart to HATE!

Not much has changed.  We need to be warned of foreigners infiltrating and destroying our sacred way of life.

Just a snippet, with a clinical analysis from Pat Dodson. He needs to be told no one is listening, and he should stop complaining.  And a reminder that it’s entirely fair that George Christiansen charge the taxpayer to attend this hate speech filled cauldron of entitlement. Cos he’s a middle aged white male, who knows an awful lot about travel to the Phillipines. Do you think he’s ever heard of Julius Streicher? Or is he tutored in the Fraser Anning school of “I had no idea that final solution could be an offensive term”? Strange times, and credit to the Catholic Boys Daily for giving it the publicity it deserves. Over to you Pat. 

Pat Dodson has also spoken out in the Senate against the Cpac conference speakers:

This could be a pantomime. This is a serious matter for the integrity of Australia.

I stand in support of my colleagues Senator Wong and Senator Keneally in expressing concern about this conference, CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference, and about the standards that our leaders, particularly the Prime Minister, need to make clear when it comes to the participation of leaders from this place and other places.

In the US, CPAC is an annual political conference attended by conservative activists and elected officials from across the United States. CPAC is hosted by the American Conservative Union. Now we have CPAC down under, with a conference in Sydney from 9 to 11 August.

George and Pauline know about the threat posed by foreigners with evil agendas. Who….. LURK IN OUR MIDST!!!

What’s this about? Is this a sign that our fierce Australian characteristics of independent thinking are finally capitulating to rejected offerings from overseas?

There was a time when we were concerned about how our national discourse was informed. Now it looks like we’re submitting to poisonous ideas without reflection. You can buy a Reagan VIP Freedom Pass to the conference for $599. No one from Newstart will be there; that’s more than their fortnightly allowance. The one-line blurb promoting CPAC in Sydney bills the conference as a chance to ‘learn’, ‘have fun’ and ‘protect the future’. Learn – what are they going to learn? What do those attending hope to learn from rightwing proselytisers from other hemispheres?

Andrew has warned us and warned us again, about the EVIL and INSIDIOUS influence of Foreigners! Onya Andrew!

Why should our political discourse be polluted by imported poisons and propaganda? Fun – locked up in a conference room with a clique of visiting rightwing nutters who shouldn’t be allowed in the country. Protect the future – God save us, if all of those that are in this bunch see themselves as our protectors.

Mr President, I invite you to go to the Cpac website and take a look at the line-up of visiting speakers. Some of them shouldn’t be allowed in this country.

They obviously have not come by boat! That should not be the reason for them being banned from coming here – they are more likely to fit into an ‘intellectual terrorist’ category than that of a tourist. Their demagoguery is a danger to democracy.

Australia is so intent on protecting its borders from refugees, but how about protecting our borders from prejudiced zealots and intellectual terrorists?

Why do we need to hear the US congressman with a questionable record, Trumpified and infecting Australian politics?

And what’s there to learn about rightwing Americans? Or why do we need to hear from someone who is promoted as a ‘British political activist’–someone who is really a racist bigot?

Don’t we have enough homegrown fascists and fanatics? We already have too much homegrown bigotry and racism in our country. Cpac has taken to social media to defend their invitation to this man. Apparently Cpac is proud to have him at the Sydney conference, arguing that free speech is at stake here.

Like both of my colleagues, I am a strong defender of free speech, but, like my colleagues, I reject any right to hate speech.

This is the EVIL that WILL DESTROY our Society!!

We already have enough homegrown bigots and racists in Australia. Extremism should not be allowed into our country. And if Cpac sees itself as the exemplar of Australian conservatism – look out, everyone. It’s time for the Prime Minister to act on this matter, as it is a threat to our nation.
