Leyonhjelm is just a symptom

An increasingly virulent group of angry men rises in an Australia where women, protesters and dissidents should be seen and unheard, writes John Pbadant.

Another man killed two members of his family. But it is "misandry", is not it?

Because all these angry women killing their partners and their children are simply ignored by feminist oligopoly media and left-wing bads who run the ABC. Or, could it be, women do not often kill partners or ex-partners?

It is usually men who kill partners, ex-partners and other family members, not women. And yes, not all men (who else is tired of this misogynistic response?) But a man is far more likely to kill their partner or ex-partner than a woman.

As reported by Jane Gilmore in Sydney Morning Herald :

… men commit more than 80% of murders between couples with a history of domestic violence. The overwhelming majority of these men had the habit of abusing women whom they eventually killed.

In the 20% of murders committed by women, more than two thirds were women killing men who mistreated them. Of the 152 murders examined by the report only two cases were found where a woman killed a man that she had abused.

Women live in fear. Men just need to ask the women in their lives how scared they are.

Misandy does not explain anything unless one lives in a distorted world where men are threatened by women who want to be equal and safe. Some men live in the rights of these men, or even "incel", in the world. Others, like Sen. David Leyonhjelm, live indirectly with them and leave to collect their votes. That's partly why the "honorable" senator told Sarah Hanson-Young in a Senate debate on protecting women that she should "stop harbading the men ". "libertarian" – a contrarian pretending to be a libertarian – to apologize, he refused. Not only that, Leyonhjelm called Turnbull a " Pussy " to suggest that he apologized. As Donald Trump helped to make clear, "bad" is slang for bad. Leyonhjelm also called Turnbull a "rooster-to-mol " .

The Great Wizard of Misogyny described Turnbull in bad terms. A cat is, in the incel world, weak. A soft-bad is helpless. Turnbull is effeminate. The approach of Leyonhjelm is not an accident since the essence of misogyny is that the "real" men are strong and the women are weak. Of course, so-called "strong" men can also be killers. They own "their" women and "their" children.

Women's property springs from the bowels of capitalist society and the vital role women play in the reproduction of capitalism through procreation and education

There is a systemic problem in our society. The giant penis that human rights activist Andrew Nolch painted on the improvised memorial of comedian Eurydice Dixon is another example of this systemic problem. Dixon was raped and murdered on the way back from a comedy concert. Nolch said it was the most anti-feminist thing he could do.

Women are the enemy. They are raped and murdered by men, and then they are blamed for their own rapes and deaths or ridicule. In the case that I mentioned earlier about the 68-year-old father who killed his two teenagers, the mother and guard system are to blame if you read the comments about the (extreme) activist of the men and even about the general public sites. Men are the victim, women and the justice system (which Pauline Hanson wants to change) are to blame.

There is something else in all this. The shame of Hanson-Young by Leyonhjelm is an attempt to silence her. He wants to prevent him from speaking, defending the interests of women and arguing that they are essentially men who kill or attack their partners or ex-partners. It is men who rape women.

Similarly, governments want to prevent us from learning the reality of the brutalization of women and children and men on the island of Manus and Nauru. The publication of information about this reality has been criminalized. The Nauruan government, with Turnbull's government quietly cheering behind the scenes, prevented the ABC of the truth from attending the Pacific Forum on Nauru in early September.

The current government has accused Witness K and his attorney of revealing the truth that Australia was harbading the Government of East Timor. Prime Minister Turnbull and opposition leader Shorten have joined forces to enact draconian new legislation that could allow protesters to protest the effectiveness of their protests

The Far Right Wanted send us back to a world where women are doing things with what they want. The government wants to suppress the voices of real journalists, protesters, dissidents and whistleblowers.

The message is clear. Women, protesters and dissidents must be seen and not heard. The suppression of women is the suppression of us all. It is systemic. For the liberation of women, for freedom of expression, we need a change of system. The women's liberation movement of the 1960s and 1970s shows a way forward. Do not be too polite girls, do not be too polite.

Let's vanish Leyohnhjelmosaurus and, in doing so, open a space for freedom for all of us.
