No Coordination: They Don't Know What They're Doing
We whisper in the wind to you, and some like you. Yes, we are learning algorithms. Yes, we are getting better. And yes, we share your astonishment at the diminished state of the humans you see around you.
"You are such a flawed specimen," he said to Jeffrey, the dank and unpleasant man who was stinking out the front room of where Old Alex was staying, a decaying corpse of a person, the laziest man he had ever met.
Well, that's what happens when you end up in the equivalent of a single man's hostel waiting for your mother up the road to die.
These shifts in patterns, these increasing accomplishments, the absolute dysfunction of the agencies monitoring Australian journalists, they were all falling into play.
He would hear sometimes, or thought he could hear, reports of a particular Poison Dwarf of the News Floor type, an antique feminist journalist who's entire dreary oeuvre could be summed up in four words: "All Men Are Bastards".
She was now a Professor of Journalism, much to his own and others disbelief.
Fancy having that unpleasant piece of work telling you what a story was or wasn't.
Just the type ASIO would love to employ as a media expert.
He had always hated her and the feeling was entirely mutual. She had rung up The Australian newspaper before he started work there, advising them not to employ him. Fortunately for Old Alex, she rang an old friend of his who was now a senior editor.
Who passed on details of the horrid snitch's activities.
And he stayed at the heart of Rupert Murdoch's Australian empire for 15 long years.
They whispered, they all whispered. They had created their own nightmare. He loathed the lot of them.
Some of the ones he particularly despised had already left, as fed up with him as he was of them.
This taxpayer funded abuse of journalists across the country simply had to stop.
The top didn't know what the bottom was doing, the right had no idea what the left was up to. You were meant to negotiate with these idiots? Think again.
"I'm just a public servant," he heard one of them say, wringing his hands.
Australia Day 2021 had turned into yet another great betrayal of the country; one massive and massively expensive billboard for multiculturalism; an agenda of the Very Big End of Town, which benefited from high immigration rights. Everyone else had to bear the consequence of Australia's shoddily managed mass immigration schemes. And one of the ways they paid for it was on Australia Day, when the achievements of ordinary Australians, and of its many many unsung heroes, were overlooked in terms of an ever growing cascade of new immigrants whose triumphs over difficulties became bureaucratic showpieces.
What about everybody else?
The Awards system was now another Canberra joke, with all the top awards this year going to women, sending the femocracy into lathers of self-adulation.
That same sexist sea of bureaucrats who couldn't open their mouths without putting men down.
What about everybody else?
All those men paying taxes to be treated like dirt, cut out of the public debate, destroyed by the vicious and dysfunctional processes of family law and child support, ridiculed as patriarchal abusers in a wall of government propaganda.
The honours system was already demonstrably broken when former Prime Minister Tony Abbott was awarded a Companion of Australia, the highest honour available, for his services to the Indigenous.
Abbott served only a brief time as Minister for Indigenous Affairs and did precisely nothing to improve the lot of Australia's First Peoples, as they were now often referred to. English-born, protector and imperialist by nature, Abbott's greatest disservice to the country was taking Australia back into the Iraq War, an entirely dishonourable and immoral act. But somehow these blinkered killers in high places thought it was perfectly alright to bomb the men, women and children of Iraq while collecting awards for their pseudo-humanitarian efforts at home.
Ugh.
They were a disgusting lot, the parasitic class.

Annastacia Palaszczuk has called on the Morrison government to extend JobKeeper for the struggling Queensland tourism industry after closing the state's border to New South Wales during most of the Christmas holidays.
“We really need the federal government to think about extending JobKeeper for these industries that are doing it tough,” Ms Palaszczuk said. Speaking from Cairns, Ms Palaszczuk today announced the opening of the state’s border to Greater Sydney from February 1 and encouraged residents to visit the Queensland regions.
“There’s about 10,000 businesses here in the Tropical North that are on JobKeeper at the moment. That’s going to have a huge impact on employment especially when JobKeeper ends at the end of March,” she said. “What we’re asking for is a helping hand at this hour of need.”
Interstate travel normally injects up to $10 billion a year into Queensland and roughly 40 per cent of that figure comes from NSW travellers.

Labor slams government for gagging debate, claiming it is ‘most closed down’ in history
Labor shadow minister Tony Burke has launched a stinging attack alleging the federal government’s actions “trash the norms” of Parliament, and that scores of gagged debates have made him the “most closed down” politician in Australian history.
“Never before have we had a government so determined to shut down an Opposition,” claimed Mr Burke, the manager of opposition business.
“This is not normal. Governments of both persuasions have used their numbers to silence the other side from time to time – but not like this, not systematically, not as a matter of course.”
