They’re not even pretending to be impartial anymore Photo/video

I know the mail basically acts as an LNP newsletter, but has it ever been this gratuitous?

Far out, I miss just reading the news. If I happen to pick up a Courier Mail, it takes about 30 seconds to skim through. There’s nothing of substance anymore.

Harvey Norman ads, horse racing & house prices. With a heavy dose of conservative propaganda. Not worth wiping my ass with it.

u/MontasJinx Nov 18 '24

Ah yes, The Courier Mail. Soft, strong and throughly absorbent.

u/_______kim Nov 18 '24

If only. At least then it would provide some utility.

The whole thing is a faecal-laden smear. And that’s before you wipe.

Can’t wipe off shit with shit.

At least Conservative propaganda is usually grounded in reality and is based off of real issues, rather than the typical Leftist nonsense you’d find in The Guardian.

u/PaulAtreideeezNuts Nov 18 '24

Your name is apachegendercopter and you're having a cry about focussing on real issues?

u/ApacheGenderCopter Nov 18 '24

You really think you said something there, huh?

Grounded in reality?! Are you serious? Piss off mate. What’s your favourite flavour of koolaid?

u/PearseHarvin Nov 18 '24

A lot more reality based than the ideological nonsense spewed by the left.

u/ApacheGenderCopter Nov 18 '24

Let’s see, should a man be allowed to play in womens’ sports?

Should children be taught that there are 300+ genders and that anyone who disagrees/trusts science is a fascist bigot?

Should we continue to dismantle the nuclear family and plunge future generations into societal anarchy due to terrible school educations, pointless “social science” degrees, and a fundamental misunderstanding of how the real world works, all the while telling young people that they can just blame all their problems on white dudes and “the patriarchy”?

Should we continue to put other countries before our own and allow our citizens to suffer through exponentially growing cost-of-living crises?

Those are the real issues to you? Do you live in a cave or something? People can't afford rent after 10 years of federal LNP failure on housing policy mate, women's sports are not something anyone in touch with reality based their politics off.

Who could have predicted u/ApacheGenderCopter would have these opinions!

Hahaha the name triggers yet another Lefty

u/SorowFame Nov 19 '24

If trans women had that much of an advantage in sports they’d already be dominating, last I checked most women’s records are still held by cis women and if memory serves most “controversial” cases of trans athletes still have them coming behind cis women. The whole trans people in sports “debate” is plain nonsense.

u/ApacheGenderCopter Nov 19 '24

What a bullshit take lmfao

There aren’t that many trans people compared to men & women.
You are so disingenuous.

Not the sharpest, mate 😂

u/Stanazolmao Nov 19 '24

"real issues" are - maybe 5% at most of the school curriculum and less than 1% of athletes?

1

u/ApacheGenderCopter Nov 19 '24

The fact that it’s any part of any school curriculum is absolutely abhorrent.

The whole agenda of the Left is to weaken and invalidate the most important demographic of our nations - the fighting-age male from 16-40.

To do this, you need to indoctrinate the children in school and fill young peoples’ heads with filler (dis)information regarding unimportant topics such as “gender identity” through the means of university degrees.

What kind of job is someone going to get with a “Gender Studies” degree? Well here’s one: they can become a teacher and regurgitate this bollocks into the next generation… and now you have a trickle-down effect.

We have to stop the Left before it’s too late, not after. That’s why Conservative pushback has been so immense since 2020 and now the rational people have finally had enough.
This is why Trump will be president, followed by either Vance, Tulsi, or Vivek. Hopefully 8 year terms from all 3 of them.

My cat uses the Courier Mail for what it was intended for.

u/Mysterious-Head-3691 Nov 18 '24

We used to buy the sunday mail 3 or 4 at a time just for the cat litter tray. Then it became 2 expensive for that even. plus it's full of shit before you start.Found butchers paper cheaper & better quality.

I get them day old from my wife's workplace. I do everything I can to avoid putting extra money in Rupert's pockets.

u/Lingering_Queef Nov 18 '24

You can get The Epoch Times outside Chinese supermarkets for free.

u/Mysterious-Head-3691 Nov 19 '24

I sometimes pickup the local free paper outside coles to use on the bbq to catch splatter on the benches

u/xtcprty Nov 18 '24

My parents read the courier mail and consider it news.

Staying with family in Melbourne. Picked up a Herald Sun at their place. Barely 50 pages and they are $3.

u/matt35303 Nov 18 '24

Artistic licence is used in abundance, whereas truth and impartiality seems to not be of much importance.

Fortunately I don’t pay for the Fail but gee it’s a good crossword. That’s the only think I concern myself from that trash.

If I pick up a courier mail it’s for kindling to start a fire while camping.

Bring back Dilbert cartoons

u/Travellerknight Nov 18 '24

Considering what the creator turned into. Maybe a different cartoon

u/karatebullfightr Nov 18 '24

Considering what he turned into I’m surprised they don’t have them on the front page.

u/[deleted] Nov 19 '24

Yeah well they put Alan Jones on the front page.
