CV and mad panic behaviour

We are, but that story about Paw Petrol has nothing to do with political correctness. It's standard issue social media idiocy. It's a trap people fall into all the time, conflating what they think is "x" with what is really "x".

I guess we have to turn to your expertise to draw that line?

I don't think any expertise is required in order to draw a distinction between fluff on social media and genuine attempts to create a more inclusive, tolerant and accepting society, ideas which lie at the heart of political correctness.

Yes, well, when I refer to political correctness, I mean properly researched, properly debated, scholarly ideas that have merit and substance, not gossamer nonsense from twitter.

Seems you've picked your side already.

I guess identifying the genuine attempts can be a bit tricky?

Just a matter of time. The quarantine seems to have been a major stuff up.

I hope they didn't hire those useless "crowd controller" (I think that's what they're supposed to be)  clowns in hivis vests that pollute AFL stadia on game days... The clueless cretins who spend the day on their phone doing F knows what.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

I think the police are involved this time,  at least at the tower blocks.

I know one thing for sure, the guards they hired were dumber than the doors they were guarding. I mean they had one job, guard the doors, no one in or out. They took people shopping FFS! I would take away their security guard registration and ban them from working in the industry because they are just too dumb. That might qualify them as Carlton Footballers.
