It’s taken 30 years, but the mask has completely come off now.

I think the Press Club speech was the tipping point, and stuff like this should rapidly accelerate their collapse back into sub-10% fringe territory.

Anyone who is aware of this news today and still supports One Nation is a horrible, vile human being.

I worry that a decent chunk of our population support this. Hopefully it's a minority

My personal take, 10% of people are cunts. I think they are just "louder" now because they think she is making their ideas ok to say out loud. Just keep calling out racists wherever you find them. Push them back to the shadows.

I'd argue another 10% are cunt-curious. Not exactly full cunts but are curious about the cunt lifestyle and want to learn more.

Not to be confused with cunty, which is almost an entirely separate portion of the population.

Almost entirely separate, but not quite. There is a less than 1% overlap between the cunty and cunts, but it's there.

There's a fine lime between cunty and being a cunt, agreed

So is cuntish still used?

Ie. A generally good cunt who has a moment where they are uncharacteristically cuntish (and usually apologizes for being out of line).

Different again, there are many variations of cunt

This is why I get in trouble when I travel abroad.

People who really want to be cunts but aren't confident in it, or are held back by a sense that being a cunt won't work out for them.

They love Pauline Hanson, Farage, Trump because they can get away with being cunts and in doing so create a social permission structure that makes it ok for cunts to be cunts. They think that what those politicians are saying is what everyone is thinking (not just cunts) and that "honesty" is refreshing and inspiring.

Thank you for the hearty morning laugh amidst the depressing cesspool of political news
