ANDREW BOLT|Old Dog Thoughts |
News Corporation employs Andrew Bolt and provides him with a platform ensuring the inequality of speech. Bolt's Blog not only advocates conservative, right wing and Tea Party views it moderates out most opposing opinions which he is entitled to do. However Andrew Bolt simply lies when he says he provides an arena for fair and balanced discussion in a no spin zone. He doesn't it's all spin.

Andrew Bolt's Blog,16/3/19; Waleed Aly worth listening to; The world of Brentan Tarrant and the preachers of right-wing thought; Fraser Anning was given air time on Sky; Gun laws in an extremists world;
As far back as Cronulla, 2005 our now PM Scott Morrison was promoting the benefits of using division for political opportunity. The division of telling them from us and who the real Australians are. Abbott put the operation into full force telling us we weren't safe and Murdoch Media was entirely behind that call. We have seen and heard Andrew Bolt cherry picking events to let cry "Who let them in" a disgusting slogan to denigrate Australians, Multiculturalism and point specific groups as dangerous. When he, in fact, is one of the most dangerous voices in this country. The only reason we haven't seen white Nationalist terror in this country inspired by the likes of Andrew Bolt on the scale of NZ are our gun laws. Anning, Hanson, Abbott Morrison, 2GB, and Sky can't back away from the fact that for the past 6 they have pushed the accelerator pedal on the political ploy of using anti- Multicultural rhetoric as a means to create fear. Trump I believe saw how it worked in Australia and followed suit and experienced the same results. They don't deserve to run this country, and it's time all advertisers abandoned Sky. (ODT)
Brenton Tarrant grew up in rural Australia before leaving for New Zealand in 2011.
Mr Tarrant said he did not identify as an Australian despite being born here. He described Australia as a lacklustre, apathetic offshoot of Britain.
"The origins of my language is European, my culture is European, my political beliefs are European, my philosophical beliefs are European, my identity is European and, most importantly, my blood is European," he wrote. "What is an Australian but a drunk European? Kidding, but Australia is a European colony, particularly of British stock and thereby an extension of Europe."
The prism he saw the world through we've heard before in the whining and cringing negative thinking of Australia-haters like the UPF, Reclaim Australia and particularly the voices we hear on 2GB, Sky and read in the Murdoch mastheads. For years Andrew Bolt has spouted his multicultural hate declaring has diluted the essence of his Australia and Abbott's Team Australia. What has happened in NZ should come as no surprise to any of us if this is what's preached by our current leaders. It'been an event waiting to happen but it's happened in the reverse of what the ultra-conservatives wanted (ODT)
"The remarks by Senator Fraser Anning blaming the murderous attacks by a violent, right-wing, extremist terrorist in New Zealand on immigration are disgusting," Mr Morrison said, just hours after addressing the media about the massacre which appears to have been carried out by Australian born Brenton Tarrant.
"Those views have no place in Australia, let alone the Australian Parliament."
Unfortunately, there are others in Australia that readily support Anning and more that hoped an incident could be encouraged so that those against multiculturalism could happily say "I told you so" Andrew Bolt one of those. On the flip side, his anti-immigrant stance against Muslims Africans and Middleasterners was there to politically encourage White Western Nationalists to come out into the open. Intentionally or not that encouragement could easily spark radical action as it did in Cronulla or worse. It's about time that hate-speech hiding behind the claim speech is free ought to be curtailed as treasonous.
Anning blaming Immigration is wrong it's the public and open hate of Immigration by conservative politicians coupled with the same sentiments of Conservative racist media, talking heads that fuel the murder and mayhem we saw yesterday in NZ. Congratulate Andrew Bolt he stands wit Fraser Anning.
Morrison's Panic as far back as 2005/6 he was promoting division as a political tactic promoting the likes of Milo
Milo Yiannopoulos banned from entering Australia
By Bevan Shields
The Morrison government has banned Milo Yiannopoulos from entering Australia after the controversial right-wing commentator responded to the New Zealand mosque massacre by describing Islam as a "barbaric" and "alien" religious culture.
The ban will be the third position the government has held in as many weeks on whether to allow the controversial figure to travel to Australia for a speaking tour later this year.

The Morrison government rushed to review the future of Mr Yiannopoulos, who has a history of attacking Muslims, after he used an overnight Facebook post to claim assaults like the one in Christchurch happen because the establishment "mollycoddles extremist leftism and barbaric, alien religious cultures".
The massacre prompted a tightening of New Zealand's gun laws, which were first passed in 1983. However they are still considered more relaxed than many other countries outside the United States.The reason for this is that, unlike Australia, there is no system of registration for the majority of guns in New Zealand.
There are believed to be 1.5 million guns in New Zealand, one for every three people. In Australia, there are 3.15 million guns - one for every eight people.
