I'd donate money for programs to wipe Australia off the face of the earth.

trashy :'(

If I wanted to give money to poor people I would have been doing it already.

People in aboriginal communities didn't ask for kangaroo convicts to come a squatting. :yeshrug

I wish there was a metal scour course enough to scrape my tainted white skin clean of it's sin. I wish I could be as pure and innocent as you Americans, but I can't okay. I hope you can forgive me for being Australian.

I forgive you, trashy :'( but please stop killing abo's!! :maf
-
That's a slightly offensive term by the way. It's like a 3 out of 10. It's not like saying "Jews" to refer to Jewish people.
I don't make the rules

Abos is still better than what Aussies call them

What do they call em?

I was trying to poke holes in the application of collective responsibility, personally I think the sentiments expressed in the OP will make the coming decades more miserable than they already have to be.

To be honest i've never heard a native Australian called a racial slur (and I had never even heard that one), but I don't get out much, and I especially don't hang out with racists.
Anyway lets get this thread back on topic:

OP is spot on. These donations are bandaids for cancer. One of our prime minister's election platforms was "if you vote for the other guy, they're going to take your truck away".

So we cant hold ourselves accountable for this shit? Its time to wake up and start acting, starting with ourselves.
I see fucking people applauding the Hemsworths donating a mil to fight the fire while on the other hand they are pocketing millions encouraging people to fly intercontinental to Australia lol.
-
Always wanted to move and settle down in Australia. Fuck if I ever want it now :lol
New Zealand is pretty nice I hear.
-
I dont think it can be stressed enough that Australians elected this government that doesn't acknowledge climate change.
Not all Australians sure, but they have to take responsibility for this.
-
What? I don't recall this :lol
-
I mean, their country is burning to the ground. I'm not about to judge people on their governments because governments don't reflect or act on the will of their peoples.
Begrudging them aid reminds me of people during droughts that say 'well move closer to a river then'.
It did make watching SummerNats mad awkward though. Not the best time to be generating 1500HP clouds of smoke.
-
But the country has the recources to put out the fire. They just choose not to use them for this.
Or is the state of Austalia bankrupt? I don't get it.

I have two stupid things I'm confused about:
- Part of being an adult is that you don't have to accept responsibility for your actions. You're past the point of learning any moral lessons, but you may accept the blame if you need to get money in your pocket. I don't get why you keep harping on this point when we all know, especially a Polish-Dutch sir like you, that Germans never took responsibility for shit until they got that check from the Marshall Plan.
- How do you donate money for a wildfire? Is there so much property damage that it overwhelms the governments own coffers?
Personally, I think Transhuman should take responsibility for his long wavy mane of hair. We can all pitch in a buck or two for a haircut and I will offer nudes to a few select members if they go above $5. This is the real bush fire.
-
Unlike maintaining my hair, cattle farming is a horrendous waste of water.

Similar fires happened in the early 70s and mid 40s, just in different parts of the country. The difference now is that there are more people, more property and more assholes intentionally setting fires to cash in on insurance claims. Also, you didn’t have a global media to broadcast it 24/7 to the doomsday cult.
Also, it’s not surprising you express this viewpoint. It’s the same kind of myopic shit that wacko Christians do when a natural disaster strikes a community/area of the world they view as “sinners”. Repent for your carbon sins, eh?
-
Yes because believing in god and sin is the same as science :lol
If you drive your car into a wall drunk its not God doing it.
If I tell my daughter not to jump on the couch and she does and she falls I tell her "I told u not to jump on the couch", this is whst can happen , give her a hug and maybe she will learn for next time. This is science.
Christians would claim her falling from the couch is because she didnt go to church or whatever nonsene Christians think.

I don't know how to reply because its a bit like if we were talking about free healthcare and I said that was a good idea and you told me socialism caused the holocaust because nazis were national socialist so everything taken to extremes can be bad snd thats why we cant have free healthcare.

So the temperature rising and the rain season shortening, nah, nothing to do with it?
It did. The changing of weather patterns due to ENSO has caused the government to fail repeatedly in meeting their goals over controlled burns in the past decade, feeding more fuel into these fires. They failed to adjust their planning or even extend it into the usual "winter months" even though those months were warmer and had less precipitation.
Now that they know of how dangerous it is to be so lax with their land management, they should take it more seriously in the future. You would hope.

Right now they're shooting camels out of helicopters in Australia because they're drinking all the water. I didn't even know they had camels in Australia.

-Spends tens of millions each year enticing people to fly intercontinental to visit
Being fair: This isn't exclusive to AUS. You could say that about any country due to tourism boosting the economy.
The major problem for AUS is that it's been in a drought for a while. The same shit could happen in California if they didn't do preventive burns.
BTW camels are not Australia endemites so fuck whoever imported them to the continent.
Same could be said for exotic pet owners in Florida or "exotic"/invasive plants in other parts of the world. Thank you so much for the Burmese Pythons invading the Everglades, whoever in Miami decided to flush their pet down the toilet or release it into the wild. Now they're basically killing the ecosystem there if eating Gator's doesn't rupture them in half.

that it's so commonplace in straya is more that a lot of people are fuckin twats than it being only slightly offensive to aboriginal peoples

saw an aboriginal get chased off bondi beach by a bunch of burly twats for simply walking around with a dslr. straya is pretty cunty

:'(
in melbourne airport only a month or so back the intercom was reading out peoples names and some se asian sounding names were read out and the person couldn't pronounce them properly and they actually laughed over the speaker at the end. one guy exclaimed w a thick australian accent "jesus, those names gotta be a joke mate", nearly everyone waiting to board except the indian family started cracking up and talking about foreign names... feels almost lauded to be an ignorant cunt in straya.

Have you guys ever read outside the leftist lines and realize there is more to these brush fires than CLIMATE CHANGE AND EEEVIL GUBERMENT.

because it's asinine to blame the 150 or so raging fires in nsw with arson when only 24 or so have been criminally convicted by the nsw police per your source you fucking twat

Really? One person can't set multiple fires? Also there are people that never been caught. For fuck sake go back to reading your comic books and spanking it to anime man child.

From the CNN article you were all too lazy to read.
In November, the NSW Rural Fire Service arrested a 19-year-old volunteer member on suspicion of arson, charging him with seven counts of deliberately setting fires over a six-week period.

climate change means it may get a little warmer and things change a bit leading to some minor changes on a planetary scale
minor changes on a planetary scales might mean a little hotter and drier in some places, like places with loads of flammable material
which could result in something going from shitty to really shitty for living in the area
but to avoid meandering, it means even if the fire starters are people, the conditions shifted to make the outcome worse
-

Impressive. Because arson is the only way to start a brushfire. Go back to your superhero movies on Netflix, it would be time better spent.

If you wanna blame a person instead of climate change fucking us, maybe instead of buying into Rupert's Greens party eco terrorists lighting fires to spruik their global warming conspiracy and destroy the enviroment, native wildlife for (?) reason, one should look at the LNP, in power on a state level in NSW and federal level for almost a decade doing nothing but cutting environmental spending wherever, fucking over this country for corporate intrests and sitting on their bad dragon.com horse dicks with squirty cum lube.

If a fire can spread uncontrollably it will, regardless of how it was started. Hotter and dryer means the fires are going to get worse and worse. It won't be this bad next year because eventually there will be nothing left to catch fire.

Yes, all conservatives think alike. ::)
Let me in on a little something that would help the cause. Find a better spokesperson for climate change. Not a teen girl who skips school and yells at adults far more intelligent than her. Not a celebrity, because they are the biggest hypocrites of them all. Not Al Gore because he is another limousine liberal, see below. Remember this one? Long time ago but a reminder of that liberal adage. Do as I say, not as I do.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/tale-two-houses/
I even used Snopes which leans far left.
Also stop publishing doom and gloom every 10 to 15 tears. How many years were climate scientists ranting on about an "Ice Age?"

Why would they try to motivate people like you, no offense? If you don't care by now, you probably never will. I find twitter/facebook activism very self-laudatory and it makes me feel very embarrassed for the people who are into it. But at the end of the day if it works, it works.
Your "I bet we will be too long gone to say I told you so" statement says it all. Why talk to people who don't give a fuck unless they see benefits for themselves. If safety, cheap electricity, clean air, and the continuation of the human species isn't enough motivation, well...

Eight independent investigations of the allegations and the emails all found that there was no evidence of fraud or scientific misconduct by the scientists. One report, by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), considered detailed petitions raised by conservative activists and business groups with reference to the emails: the EPA examined every email and concluded that there was no merit to the claims in the petitions, which "routinely misunderstood the scientific issues", reached "faulty scientific conclusions", "resorted to hyperbole", and "often cherry-pick language that creates the suggestion or appearance of impropriety, without looking deeper into the issues".

But a Rural Fire Service spokesman told Sky News on Wednesday that the majority of the larger fires in the state were caused by lightning, and that arson was a relatively small source of ignition.
thought i'd leave this here since this cunty fuck has muddied the water despite nobody falling for his shit
-
and fuck it, here's a science lesson that even maybe a wanka such as himself can understand:
so now that we know that the vast majority of the larger fires that are ravaging the bushlands are due to lightning storms, let us try to understand why.
As the air over a fire becomes intensely hot, it creates an upward-moving rush of wind called an updraft that funnels smoke into the atmosphere like a smokestack. As the air rises, it cools and condenses, forming clouds. The higher it lifts, the more likely it is to form a thunderstorm, says Flannigan.
“These storms create their own wind field because they have such a violent updraft. It’s a very turbulent environment,” he says.
Once formed, pyroCbs can look similar to intense thunderstorms, but they have key differences. They tend to produce lightning with positive, rather than negative charges, which lasts longer and allows the strikes of lightning more time to set the ground aflame. Fire storms also tend to stagnate, staying parked over the fires that create them. And perhaps most notably, fire storms rarely produce the precipitation desperately needed to squelch massive fires.
now this source didn't go into great detail in explaining why positive charges are more deadly than those that are negative but you're in luck because i am often curious about everything i read!
Positive lightning makes up less than 5% of all strikes. However, despite a significantly lower rate of occurrence, positive lightning is particularly dangerous for several reasons.
Since it originates in the upper levels of a storm, the amount of air it must burn through to reach the ground is usually much greater. Therefore, electric fields associated with positive Cloud-to-Ground (CG) strikes are typically much stronger than those associated with negative strikes. The flash duration is also longer with peak charge and potential up to ten times greater as compared to negative CG strikes; as much as 300,000 amperes and one billion volts!
curious, now that we know the number of amps in a positive lightning strike, we can compare it to the number of amps in say a car lighter... and a quick google search reveals that it is about 15amps which can help explain why...
The average lightning-caused fire burned 402 acres, nine times the average of 45 acres seen in human-caused wildland fires.
you can google each quote for their respective sources or you can just read this excellent article i just finished digging through earlier this morning that highlights how the aforementioned pyroCbs, or fire-induced lightning storm, are a little-known phenomenon that scientists have only begun researching in 2013 are becoming increasingly more common due to FUCKING GLOBAL WARMING, which should alarm everyone not only in drier climates "because they have as much energy and impact as a moderate-sized volcanic eruption". but you know, environmentalist terrorists who are setting off multiple fires each are to blame for these unprecedented fires.

I don't even understand why environmentalism in any sense is so... triggering for some people.
Like if you lived somewhere depending on coal industry and you lived all your life in said industry I can understand why you'd be emotionally invested in phasing out coal. But this?

Why are conservatives mongoloids (sorry it's my black and white thinking!) whose only response to anything cultural are gotcha points and LA LA LA LA LA-hands-over-ears-ism? In what way could environmentalism be bad? 30 years ago America was a polluted pit and we've worked hard to fix that. What the fuck is the negative? Why are conservatives so fucking against any progress at all even if it's revolved around issues that are decades years old? Why are they suck backwards fucking fucks?
Sorry for the rant, it's on my mind and how I feel about the issue.
-
I think its pointless trying to convince deniers, waste of energy so to say.
Better to influence passive believers. That means being supportive of what they do, not being negative about what they don't do.

So why on earth would a conservative mongoloid like me try to help a transsexual to get help with their medical condition.

Just because I do not share the same opinion as the majority of you does not make me a bad person or have hate in my heart for others. You folks go find a forum where the majority disagree with your every opinion and see how well that discussion goes.

Also, the "hockey stick fiasco" was typical right-wing FUD taking something tiny out of context and using it to make a broad sweeping generalization that turned out to be totally false.

Believe what you will. I can posts articles showing the hockey stick graph was fraudulent, to which you would all claim are BS sites and then you have climategate which also involved the creator of the hockey stick graph Michael E Mann. Penn State exonerated him just as tried to do for Joe Paterno until the walls came crumbling down and they had to act. Of course Joe's son, who was a defender of his father was elected to the board of trustees in 2017 (how quickly the forget). You just keep believing what you want.

Greetings, liberal. Allow me to briefly strawman you to death with Greta Thunberg.

Penn State University global warming researcher Michael Mann is lawyering up to counter attacks by conservatives who have referred to him as the “Jerry Sandusky of climate science.”

Penn State University global warming researcher Michael Mann is lawyering up to counter attacks by conservatives who have referred to him as the “Jerry Sandusky of climate science.”
“Mann could be said to be the Jerry Sandusky of climate science, except that instead of molesting children, he has molested and tortured data in the service of politicized science that could have dire economic consequences for the nation and planet.”
-National Review
Yes, him being slandered by was "a thing", in the same sense that Pizzagate was a thing or that Climategate "was a thing". It doesn't mean any of these "things" have any truth to them.

Where do you first read these conspiracy theories. Youtube? Conservative print media? 4chan? Genuinely curious.
-
Believe what you will.
It's not a "believe" issue, it's facts issue, breh. Two reviews by Penn State found that Mann did nothing wrong. The EPA found no evidence of wrong-doing. The IG of the Commerce Department found no evidence of wrong-doing. The OIG of the National Science Foundation found no evidence of wrong-doing. No actual investigations into the matter, as in not simply right-wing hit pieces, found there was anything inappropriate done. On the other hand, Mann's conclusions have been generally confirmed by multiple reconstructions in the years since his original "hockey stick" graph was published.

Pluto, planet? Not a planet? How hard is this?
Woah, it's almost like what is and is not a planet is based on a definition determined by scientific consensus and Pluto has more in common with the dozens of dwarf planets, trans-Neptunian objects, and other minor planetoids that exist in the solar system than it does the 8 traditional planets therefore it makes more sense to classify Pluto differently rather than arbitrarily continuing to call it a planet when multiple other objects in the solar system end up being left out of that classification.

So why the dissent? Debate? It's all so confusing.

-
Pluto, planet? Not a planet? How hard is this?
Yes, because a small change in a completely arbitrary classification system based on more planetary bodies being discovered and highlighting that such classification system may have been slightly wrong is the example you want to go for here to argue that global warming isn't a thing, you muppet.

This is all conservatives ever do.
Whataboutism.
Always deflect.
Always point.
Always suggest.
Only ever be about "owning the libs".
Anti-intellectualism for the sake of it. They have no points, no arguments, no solutions WHAT SO EVER.
A barf bag of ideology that sees itself to have the depth of Kantian ethics.
People whose philosophy is to always stick their fingers in their ears and are seemingly PROUD of it. Good God, I loathe them. The six or so months I interpolated as a conservative were some of the worst months of my life. Such backwards, bottom feeding, shit eaters.
The dog poop of political spectrums. Put it in a paper bag and set it on fire, PLEASE.

I don't understand why people from overseas are donating?
We are a first world country and people have insurance. We have well funded emergency recovery agencies and most charities are well supported already.
It's all just performative bullshit.
If you want to donate to a good cause, find a charity that supports people in the third world or something.

It's more donating so you get water/etc. for the firefighters. So they don't have to pay for it while combating the fires. Similar to how folks donate to hurricane relief to get water/food/etc. there for folks that need it.

I think the Firefighters would prefer the government ensures they don't keel over from thirst rather than leaving it up to the kindness of strangers to be honest.
The more this hurts the government financially, the more they'll do to prevent it happening again.

*shrug* I'm just giving the logic.
Hurricanes, for instance, take a shit ton of money in regards to building places, food, shelter, etc. Insurance alone (and the Government alone) won't cover all of that. So providing water for the firefighters out of donations in theory allows the government to pay for the funerals of the lost fire-fighters, compensation for the family of said lost firefighters, and the like.

Interesting story about the fundraising
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-01-14/celeste-barber-facebook-fundraiser-is-complicated/11861146 (https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-01-14/celeste-barber-facebook-fundraiser-is-complicated/11861146)
Asks and answers lots of relevant questions like:
- Where will the money go?
- What do donors want dome with the money?
- What did people think they were donating for?
- Can the money be divided up among different charities? (This is a really interesting question, because the deed of the trust says that it can't legally pass money on to other charities)

Crowdfunding water for firefighters? Read the article I posted to see how absurd that comment is.
There is not a single firefighter in this country who has been left wanting for drinking water or food during this whole episode.
This is not the US, where people affected by natural disasters are abandoned in football stadiums and then arrested when they take food to stop their families from starving.

So if you think arson was the cause of so many fires in Australia, isn't then the response is to help mitigate the effects of climate change so people can't cause such a massive fire to destroy thousands of people lives?

No, the fires being caused by arson means that climate change isn't real so let's roll some coal, baby.
