Was foam pie attacker Jonnie Marbles a Rupert Murdoch stooge?

July 21, 2011
Fellow travellers, I'm sure that many of you share my disappointment over the recent Murdoch hearings. It looked like we might have finally had the Evil Emperor on the ropes! But sadly, it was not to be. There seems to be a widespread feeling that he acquitted himself well. And then there was that foam pie "attack" on him by comedian and activist "Jonnie Marbles". That has resulted in even more sympathy for the old tyrant.

But was the attack genuine, fellow travellers? As we on the left know only too well, eeevil capitalists have vast resources at their disposal, and have long been known to manipulate events to suit their diabolical agendas. Take the framing of Lee Harvey Oswald, for example, or the "decapitation" of Nick Berg by "Islamic terrorists".

Much has been made about how quickly Wendi Deng leapt to her feet to "protect" her husband. I have watched the replays of the incident over and over again, and after much forensically detailed and completely objective analysis I have come to the conclusion that her reaction was unusually swift. She clearly had prior knowledge of the man's appearance on the scene.

Similarly, the police reaction was unusually slow. Of course right-wingers are claiming this was due to the bad training and general incompetence of these "plods". But watch the video. It's pretty clear that they delayed their reactions for fear of spoiling the theatre of Deng's robust "defence". They were obviously in on it -- as were the police who let Jonnie Marbles into the building in the first place.

Then there is the attacker's history. He's been widely reported as having links to the activist group UK Uncut. But that's just the kind of thing we would expect from such a "ratbag" isn't it? He is also a comedian. Well of course! He fits the stereotype perfectly, doesn't he? A little too perfectly, any rational person would surely suspect ...

Remember also that "Jonnie Marbles" is merely a persona created by Jonathan May-Bowles. That hyphenated name sounds a little posh, doesn't it? Hardly a name suited to the working class hero that he makes himself out to be.

And remember that this was the same Jonathan May-Bowles who attended this school near Slough. Readers will note with alarm that it is a Catholic school. And we know what sort of pro-capitalist indoctrination occurs in such places, don't we fellow travellers, hmm? Not only love of God, but also love of Mammon!

The issue is beyond doubt. The seemingly random attacker was actually a small cog in a vast conspiracy designed to create sympathy for Murdoch. And it's a conspiracy that has succeeded completely.

This is disturbing, fellow travellers. Deeply, deeply disturbing. Still, it's just the kind of thing we've come to expect from this utterly diabolical man and his appalling henchpeople. Murdoch really will stop at nothing in his relentless quest for world domination.
 

"Brown Town" song parody proves right-wingers have no sense of humour

July 1, 2011
Well, fellow travellers, it's not surprising that planet hating reactionaries who lurk in the right-wing reaches of the blogosphere are all howling with laughter at this parody of Petula Clark's "Downtown". It just says sooo much about these nasty Gaia-phobes and what goes on inside their tiny minds.

Well, apart from being a complete misrepresentation of what Bob Brown and the Greens stand for it's also not at all funny.

And I am an expert in these matters, you know! Not only have I written an...

Herein I calmly respond to a right-wing blogger's death threats

June 24, 2011
In response to what were perfectly reasonable observations from myself and fellow traveller Jill Singer about the planet-killing behaviour of eeevil climate change denialists, the appalling Iain Hall has responded with something truly vile. In that offensively arrogant and sanctimonious manner that all conservatives seem to have, he has argued that we on the green left should "name our poison" and either neuter or kill ourselves to "make a real difference to the environment".

Needless to say ...

Thoughts on Carnita Matthews, burqas and balaclavas

June 23, 2011
Now that justice has actually been served in the Carnita Matthews case, the right-wing racists and xenophobes are using the decision as justification to launch a new hate campaign! They have renewed their demands to have the burqa banned. Really, the gall of these Islamophobes is almost beyond belief.

Often, they cite the argument that it is oppressive to women. Excuse me! These are the same people who openly tell (and laugh at) blonde jokes! Can you believe the hypocrisy, fellow travellers? T...

Jill Singer's final solution to the denialist problem

June 22, 2011
Fellow travellers, as you well know I write this blog out of love. I selflessly offer my deep wisdom for the good of all humankind. And while knowing that I am making the world a better place is deeply fulfilling, there is a downside. Being so far ahead of my time and so spiritually advanced, I do suffer feelings of isolation from time to time. It's lonely at the top, as they say.

That's why it's nice to know that there are others who share my deep compassion, and visions for a kinder, gentle...

Leave Anna-Maria Arabia alone, Andrew Bolt!

June 20, 2011
Why am I not surprised that the appalling Andrew Bolt is still beating his denialist drum against respected scientists fighting valiantly to save the planet from catastrophic climate change? Now he's attacking sassy sister Anna-Maria Arabia. And he's doing so with even more vitriol than usual. Perhaps it's got something to do with his obvious Islamophobia. Her surname just too much to bear is it Andrew, hmm? Hmm?

While there's probably some submerged racism in his latest bit of hate speech, i...

Dalai Lama's visit to Perth, Fremantle provokes right-wing sneering

June 18, 2011
His Holiness the Dalai Lama is now here in Fremantle, and will speak in Perth tomorrow. While his visit to Australia (and previously, the USA) has been met with much love, joy and celebration from the more compassionate among us, hard-hearted right-wingers and conservatives continue to find fault with him.

For example, they really pounced on his admission that he is a Marxist. They despise that compassionate ideology anyway, and also seem to think that being proudly left-wing is someh...

Professor Bob Carter is a climate change denialist

June 6, 2011
Sassy sister Cate Blanchett recently, and quite movingly, said of her activism on the issue of climate change: ''I can't look my children in the face if I'm not trying to do something in my small way and to urge other people."

I applaud such courage and conviction. But for me, the sense of urgency is even more immediate. If I were not waging a (peaceful) war against the denialists and alerting the world to their appalling lies then I wouldn't be a able to look Gaia Herself in the face (and I ...

The Bushby-Wong meow-row and the barbaric sexism of the Liberal Party

June 2, 2011
Fellow travellers, I'm sure you have all heard of this latest appalling act by the Opposition, in which the vile David Bushby meowed at sassy sister Penny Wong. Of course the right-wing knuckle draggers in the Liberal Party have argued that it was a comparatively minor insult, and that Labor politicians are capable of vile attacks as well. Their media apologists cite Mark Latham's use of the insult "skanky ho" against Janet Albrechtsen, and Julia Gillard's description of Christopher Pyne as a...

Gail Dines, Leslie Cannold and pornography on the ABC's Q&A

May 25, 2011
Both my feminist cat Jocelyn and I were over the moon knowing that two of the world's foremost feminists would be making a TV appearance last Monday night. Yes, the sassy Gail Dines and Australia's own patriarchal-paradigm buster Leslie Cannold were to be panelists on our favourite show, Q and A. We were so excited, we danced a dance of empowerment and joy!

But sadly as the debate wore on it became apparent that there was more than a little enmity between the two notable thinkers. It pains me ...
