Mediocrity - Australia says "sure, why not?"


Why does it have to be 'Australia' says no?

Why can't it be 'human beings' say no?

It's as though we can only influence the behaviour of people in this country through jingoistic references.

"Better not beat up your wife - it's not very patriotic."

Guh.

    Yes, Sam, it's terribly wrong.

    Violence against Gays
    Violence against refugees
    violence against animals
    violence against Howard*

    The ad is interchangable.
