I think most people on here and yourself but not all on here get the wrong end of the stick for the reasoning behind why we might call you J and others commies at times. Communism can come in many forms, it's not just some Commie dictator that kills millions, starves his people and makes everyone work for the government like earlier communistic models have done, politics including Communism evolves and reshapes itself, Communism is more about centralizing money flows into the hands of a fewer and fewer people.
Also Communism doesn't start with the wave of a magic stick, over time it gets worse and worse for the people and as they over tax and over regulate each and every industry the people become more and more reliant on the government, it turns into a slippery slope, Argentina is a good example of what was a rich nation that got sent broke because of socialism, socialism is communism, in both of these markets are not free, they are over-regulated, in the begining of the socialism in Argentina things would have been good for the people because they were robbing the wealth Argentina had previously created, 50-100 yrs later they ran out of other peoples money to give away and have now voted for a President in Milei that will eliminate the high regualtions, high taxes and way oversized government and Argentina will start to create wealth again rather than destroy wealth creation like the socialists do or commies do.
We in Oz are going down the same path as socialist Argentina and if people keep voting for it in our two parties we'll end up like them thus those that vote for these policies which require more and more regulations and bigger and bigger government would logically be a commie because the path we are on only ends with one destination. China have been smart enough to reverse it's socialist/communist goals economically at least and has policies that make it economically competitive in the world so it's people can make a profit and create wealth for themselves.
Did you know our commie Australian Government employs more people in our government than China does? China employs 28% whereas we have 28.9% from the 2020 data and with comrade Albo we now in 2024 employ many many more, government employees do not create wealth Dex, they spend the wealth that others create and eventually a tipping point is reached and inflation rises which is what we are seeing now.
We should as a country be aiming for under 10% to start with if one was sensible, if you have a look at the list in the link you'll see Australian Government is nearly the biggest one there is yet you try and tell people theres no commies in our Government or Oz Gov commie agenda!!
Just look at the numbers, they speak for themselves!

And i don't think 310 has ever said not to have a social policy and Yes of course there needs to be a safety net for when people fail, i'm also reasonably sure 310 would have liked Maggi too and most likely has liked one or two women in Oz gov through his life too, i don't take him as anti women.
I don't think calling out Trump as a dangerous narcissist is very nice and is a ratbag kind of statement imo, i don't see why you see him as dangerous, he's already done four years and the galaxy didn't impload, quite the opposite, not one new War under Trump which is a first for a President in my life time, economy was cranking, inflation was low, lowest wages were increasing at the fastest pace out of all the wage brackets, much lower more competitive taxes, US was an Oil exporter giving less power to Saudi's and Putin, petrol was much cheaper.
The world was good under Trump Dex, i get that a few mean tweets and how the MSM always made him look maywell have houdinied/deceived many people like yourself into thinking he's dangerous but just look at World when Trump was in power and now look at it, actions and results speak louder than words or they should when judging people and companies for that matter and it shouldn't be hard to see the World was in a much better place under Trump compared to now under the Demoncrats and Biden, they came in and changed all Trumps policies and now look at the mess the world is in.
One of the things that should stand out to people when it comes to peace when Trump was in power was the fact that for the first time in all our lives peaceful progress was made with North Korea, none of us have ever seen that and as soon as Trump was gone North Korea was straight back in the bad boy bin just like they've been all our lives so people should ask themselves WHAT was different.
The difference was and is Trump policies, his global policies are not the same as the old duopoly of Democrats and Republican, Trump's policies are for peace not for War and dominion.
