I know you came here for the profanity and disturbing metaphors but indulge me while I do a little bit of actual jernalisms. Lets look at this week’s Lady Budget. Because to accept the endless fanwanking of the professional kommuntariat that the budget was indeed a cunning plot to rescue the government’s cratering vote amongst the non-male demographic, was to agree with the deeply clueless muntwaffle of pundits like the ABC’s Andrew Probyn that the collapse in that vote was a piddling thing, easily dealt with by giving the little ladies of Vegemiteland some extra pin money.
"Pelvic Pain Foundation" are we sure these aren't the same crew as the Great Barrier Reef Foundation who saw a quick 444 million quid from this LNP government in 2018. Apologies if they aren't and they an NGO who are doing genuine engagement work
John: I knew this praise for the womanly re-set of Morrison/Frydenberg in this Budget was way beyond the truth - but this one point savages all those complicit in the whitewash. You strike a note in this focus on endometriosis which goes back beyond 30 years to the loss of our family - a daughter and then twin boys - due to not-diagnosed-until-after-the-second-loss endometriosis - just then coming into view as the culprit - and in other terms - too late. A niece-in-law has the same - though her twin boys and a daughter are with us... Much gratitude for this essay - and its deservèd skewering attack on the greedy/selfish/do-nothing action re this affliction.
First question - who is on the board of the foundation? Does sound rather like thge barrier reef foundation. And how does this help women who have endometriosis? Well of course it doesn't. Because 'awareness raising' is what you do when you don't want to actually fix a problem. It's cheap, it doesn't require highly skilled professionals and it's impossible to evaluate so it's got a 'feel good' element even though it does nothing. A whole lot of Morrison apologists will be saying " well at least the govt is trying" and miss how deeply cynical this is.
I hope endometriosis support groups do some awareness raising of their own in response!
This cynical nothingness is so typical of Scumnuts; using a women's health issue, one that is devastating for most who suffer from it, is just more abusive, misogynistic crap! #mormates #EnoughIsEnough 🤬
Get ASIC investigating endometriosis. Cliversaurus Max will run a $billion campaign in the dailies, open Cliverversity Max and find a cure mid next year.
