@Parsifal; you're overthinking my comments on this thread - I'm not deploying tactics of any kind whatsoever and as I posted earlier, I just call 'em as I see 'em. Nor am I trying to second guess what's in your head or contend that there's something wrong with your thinking; indeed, you're the one at risk of projection.
In the schema of things Lidia Thorp's gesture that some found provocative neither offended me nor scored as either significant or extreme.
My very long career in public school teaching taught me to look through gestures such as that of Lidia Thorp for its deeper meaning and root cause.
That's why I referenced Morrison's behaviour as PM - IMO Thorp has a blunt but transparent message she's screaming at us, Morrison's message is well known to me but his sycophants are totally blind to it.
Disclosure & Clue: I have tired of having to rescue people close to me from what the Pentecostal 'Church' does to them - to quote from Lethal Weapon, "I'm too old for this sheet!". After what's happened to the Liberal Party in WA, SA and NSW I'm wondering what it will take for that political party to recover.
