Be pretty funny if it was “white bastard”.

(Not sure if the Sam Kerr story has made headlines outside of Australia? If not my comment is in reference to that.)

Ah yes, Reddit, the epicentre of all wokeness.

The mainstream media picked up on it when actual intelligent games producers chimed in to try to defuse the situation you fragile little man babies were trying to stir up.

It is nothing but conspiracy theories.

If you buy into the bullshit conspiracies then you are a hater. Or a moron. Or both. All 200,000 of you.

If you think the curator isn’t a bigot and/or racist and/or misogynist you’re a fucking idiot.

The CEO of SBI being full of hyperbole doesn’t change any of that.

You say you can “decide for yourself” and then list a handful of links to people pushing their own agenda.

Electricity. Lots and lots of electricity.

Look at that, it didn’t require a whole-ass article.

Australia checking in. We love our pies. Pop potato on the top? Potato pie. Chicken instead of beef? Chicken pie. Lamb pie. Curry pie. Etc.

We also have shepherds pie but frankly that’s just a shitty potato pie without the pastry.

(Tongue in cheek, having some fun at the expense of the Poms getting all hot under the collar that someone mislabelled a cottage pie. Almost as bad as the yanks.)

The same mum who said this is also now upset that her 17 year old daughter is planning on doing OnlyFans porn. Pretty soon mum won’t get the money for pimping her child any more and now she is horrified at all the pedos.

Mum also says if she knew then what she knew now she would never have pimped her child on the internet. Kid is 17, so we are talking about maybe 5 years ago? Back in the olden days of 2019, when the internet was a safe fluffy warm place for children.

Give the cop a break. That fork could have had an acorn on it for crying out loud.

Or possibly we should focus more on helping the victims and then once they’re properly sorted out we can start looking at how to further assist the perpetrators.

If situations like this, and more generally movements like metoo, have taught us anything it’s that men in positions of power can make it difficult or nigh on impossible for women to be heard. Let’s help them first.

I shouldn’t have used your specific circumstance as an example and I apologise for that. I have absolutely no idea what you’ve been through and shouldn’t ever have made assumptions or attempted to use it to try to make my point.

More women would definitely help. Cop culture is massively macho, male dominated, even if there are some women in some positions of power.

Someone who decides to hit their spouse or child is a piece of shit. Someone who hurts any other innocent person intentionally is a piece of shit. Drug dealers are pieces of shit. The list is endless.

If someone with a drug dependence hurts another person while intoxicated then that’s a criminal matter. Part of their sentence would undoubtedly be rehabilitation, as it should.

If someone hurts another person then that’s a criminal matter. Part of their sentence would undoubtedly be rehabilitation.

If someone hurts a spouse or child… etc.

I don’t think singling out one group of criminals for special treatment is the answer.

No one wakes up one day and decides to be an awful human, for sure. It takes time and practise, and people around them ignoring it or even enabling it.

What the reddit is this shit.

Firstly the article doesn’t say that.

Cops are mostly men and yeah they fucken do hate women. The stats back that up. So changing the “system” (ie the way police forces deal with abuse to get more women involved and in positions of power) is absolutely a brilliant idea. Cops also (statistically) hate their kids so it’s a double whammy.

Pieces of shit that beat their partners and children don’t get a pass because no one gave them a sympathetic pat on the hand and a cuppa. Very few people alive today believe it is acceptable to beat their spouse and kids. They do it because they can, and because they get away with it.

If the court appointed a psychologist to your father then the system DID help him. Too late, obviously, but that suggests to me the issue was with the (almost certainly male) cops not stepping in sooner to get the court involved.

I’m sorry you suffered abuse as a child and I hope your life has been safe and full of love since then.

I’ve played both and I wouldn’t say the sequel looks worse, no.

At least someone is trying to help rather than trying to be “funny”.

Unfortunately some chickens are just arseholes. Sometimes getting another chicken can help (changing the dynamic of the flock) but usually it’s simpler to re-home the nasty chook.

Edit to make sure OP has done the basics like ensuring the flock has enough space, enough room at night to roost, enough food etc?
