Follow up to, Rudd’s “Blasphemy Laws”
The magazine that raised the matter is Adnews (16/5/08). The article is “Adland under siege”. The measures Rudd is preparing will not be in one Bill. They will be spread out through a number of Bills and amendments to a number of Acts. What is proposed is still in Committee stages. Taking these points together, we have the explanation of why it is possible to miss the fact that Rudd is preparing to impose a broad censorship Bill.
To re-iterate, certainly it is immediately aimed at advertising but, the impact hits manufacturers since advertising is part of the logistics expenses of taking products to market. As remarked, an objective of the measures is to damage companies. Then there is the bound force, ‘censorship through the backdoor’.
The article states: ‘regulation does not work for us (advertising firms) and the economy’. Of course it doesn’t. It doesn’t work for producers either, and means in the end Australians are poorer than they need be. Regulation is a tax and it hits capital and not simply advertising firms.
It also opines the links of many in advertising with the ALP should have sheltered them. what drug are this lot on? It describes Rudd as another Tony Blair, as in Blair’s ‘third way’, which the ad-men misconceive as some happy go lucky wonderland. Blair’s third way was a fancy name for destructive socialism. Between them, Blair, Gordon Brown, and their colleagues have ‘progressively’ converted Britain into a hell hole and the Brits are being flushed down its sewers.
The ad-men are whining. Why? Because they were too stupid to hire guns who could fight against censorship and the extensive body of regulation loaded on advertising. This is why they face life on the streets as tramps. Mind, there is no point in turning to the IPA and the CIS to save them from wearing “opp-shop” pants. Apart from their non-existent free market grip, the CIS and IPA made it their forte helping governments to impose mountains of regulatory burdens; before the CIS’ full support for carbon taxation is taken into account.
The article bemoans Philip “Phuc Phil” Adams wasn’t invited to the “20/20 summit”. How dumb can a chap be? Do they really believe Rudd’s fascist ‘lurve’ fest was anything but that? Apparently so. The notion that Adams is a free market warrior is a joke entirely lost on them.
Do they honestly believe a treacherous leftist such as Adams, and any other wealthy communard in advertising would fight what they are about to be hit with? That advertising has been hit with heavy burdens and controls over the past 15 years should tell them something about how effective their leftist top ad-men are, and how ineffectual non-leftist top ad-men are when it comes to economic warfare against marauding politicians and bureaucrats, but apparently not.
What has to be pointed out to ad-men is, it takes brains, principles and sound economic theory to fight. Their predicament is evidence of absence of all three requisites. Look at Statist Jeff Kennett, he was an ad-man and he was the man who with Alan “Stockers” Stockdale converted the STO into a crime syndicate and wanted to set up the criminal fraud of ethanol production in Victoria on a large scale. The upshot is Brackistan.
The stupidity of the ad-men is complemented by another of their whines. They whine that their opponents are well funded. What! And, though they are paid hundreds upon hundreds of millions of dollars in revenues, they can’t find a cent to fight back? Are they serious or were they just stuffing around all the time like a pack of juvenile schoolboys?
They need a gun. They won’t, contrary to their hopes, get one from the Left. They are oblivious to the apparent subtlety the treacherous Left are all about destroying free markets and capital. So where did they get the notion Rudd and his “comrades” are going to be nice? Oh, I know, from one of their juvenile ads for Rudd’s election campaign. Fools do test the milk of kindness.
Neither will they obtain them in the CIS and IPA. Off the top, right now, I recommend they contact Mr. Jackson of Brookesnews. However, given the admen have let things come to such a pass, because of their indolence, believing rotten leftists such as “Phuc Phil” are capitalist heroes, and general stupidity they have ensured much of the carnage they complain of. Any guns they might hire will have their work cut out sorting through a complete mess they and no-one else created. They complain but spinelessness, treacherous lefties in top positions in advertising, and economic illiteracy is the sort of cocktail that blows up in your face and it has.
What makes it all the more hilarious is that Philip Adams himself has attacked advertising firms. Not simply attacked them, but told the very lies Rudd is using as the excuse to impose the measures he is preparing. Either the ad-men are unbelievably naive, or thicker than a concrete plank, or due to their leftist leanings have been deliberately silent about a few home truths that have blown back in the hot wind and hit them in the goolies. Yet, how can they be blind to vicious, treacherous leftists such as their No.I Advertising Guru “Phuc” Phil? Oh, I know, because he was one of them; it’s right out of Yes, Prime Minister -”But, he is one of us!” Yah, sophisticates on show.
Paedophilia is a nasty activity that means the sexual abuse of children. This is something that every ordinary person understands and, with the exception of child molesters, vigorously condemns.
But it takes a rancid socialist like Philip Adams to accuse companies who produce goods and advertising that target the youth market of “corporate paedophilia” (Paedophilia Inc, Murdoch’s Australian, 21/6/03). This is not the first time that Adams has made such loathsome accusations. He did the same thing in a speech he gave at Curtain University in October 1996.
According to the deep thinking and ever so caring Mr Adams kids are not only “seduced” by corporations they are also “manipulated” etc. Therefore, Adams believes that creating brand-names and attractive products puts corporations like Nike and Reebok on the same level as “paedophiles”. Thus he felt able to argue that “corporate paedophiles have kidnapped an entire generation of kids, holding them for ransom that many parents can’t afford to pay.”
What are these companies supposed to do? Make unattractive goods? Make inferior goods? Abolish their trade marks? Stop advertising their goods? The more one thinks of what Adams says on this matter the more ridiculous it sounds. Not that he is totally unaware of it. He knows that a good way to attack companies is to accuse them of child abuse. He also knows it diminishes the suffering that children of real abuse undergo and makes a mockery of their plight. But hey! Somebody’s got to break the eggs. Right, Phil?
This is the sort of “man” that infest the advertising and media world and Adnews seriously believes such types will help defend them from Rudd’s totalitarian measures.
The rotten upshot is: due to their cowardice and sloth, they have dragged down with them those who pay their backsides, entrepreneurs and the firms they run. Also, Australians in general, because Rudd is using a sly, backdoor approach through advertising controls to impose general totalitarian censorship controls.
One measure raised is; advertising will have to be “vetted” by the Government before it can be printed/broadcasted. This suggests: men, women and children flooding Rudd’s office with material to “vet”:
“Deah Maximus Leadah Big Kev,
I’m not sure whether this is ideologically correct, so could you censor my school essay/shopping list/ business report, and can you advise me if my paper sexualises me? Please find my paper attached for your approval.
Sincerely, another dumb oaf who grovels in the dirt before thee.”
Being a control freak, Rudd will “burn the candle” and attend to his duty to 20 odd millions of Australians.
The article, as mentioned, cites ‘community movements’ that are in fact Government fronts. Taxpayers’ money is shovelled into their coffers. One of them is “Parents Jury”, some of the others are “Let Kids bfree to be kids” and “Choice” .Choice and freedom of consumers are the last thing they are concerned with. They are little jackbooted dictators. Bracks set up “Parents Jury”, with very generous transfers. Brumby continues to truck stolen private property into their bank vaults.
Parents Jury is not a ‘spontaneous parents movement’ at all. It is understandable why Bracks and Brumby set it up to real taxpayers’ misery; it fits their aim to impose undiluted neo-Marxist hell. Bracks advises Rudd. Oh they might have had sincere but deluded parents join who don’t wish their children to consume certain goods, nor watch advertising. Fine, but what gives them the right to dictate what others may or may not do? It is a political front, it is vicious, it is totalitarian.
Other fronts include “the obesity Society”. Well, yes, it is an obese society. It is obese with nasty jackbooted cretins. These societies are tied together. They are not independent and they are agents of the thugs in Spring Street. Bracks and Brumby have committed another fraud, out of vicious motives. It is a deliberate deception of the public, and theft to fund what is nothing but a political front for those trampling over Victorians and Australians.
The matter is now at such a passe that it is a fight for liberty. It is time the admen realised this and instead of whining about their predicament, get serious and hire guns who can fight, instead of listening to clowns such as stuff the IPA and CIS, and pr men/lobbyists who are just as incompetent and dead between the ears. Guns have the guts to fight, the brains to fight, and the principles to fight. But, my suspicion is the ad-men will stick with duds, and gurgle and bulge their peepers as Rudd strangles them to death.
To ram home how stupid some of these ad-men are, here are articles profiliing their leftist colleagues cum heroes:
How the diseased left see the world
For leftists Philip Adams is an intellectual icon. A man beyond reproach. A man who provides an excellent example of how the left view the world. Behind Adams’ avuncular appearance there resides a vicious totalitarian mindset that can justify any atrocity so long as the perpetrators are progressive thugs. His influence within the ABC and the Australian Labor Party is such that not even his boss Rupert Murdoch can muster the courage to show this two-faced liar the door.
I have on numerous occasions pointed out that one of the things all lefties share is an inability to keep their ideological prejudices out of any subject in which they become involved. This is why they politicise everything they touch. This brings me to 1999 when Adams…
he still had the nerve to assert that though “Communism was bad enough, free market forces have been every bit as ruthless and carnivorous . . .” (Murdoch’s Australian, 6 February 1999).
That’s right, folks, Mr Adams, believed — and still does — that free market policies are no different from the Marxist-Leninist ideology that tortured and murdered scores of millions of people? Not only that…
Adams at his most bizarre asked “who suffered the most. . . . The Cambodians as victims of themselves”. Does he think they committed mass suicide? More than 2 million Cambodian were murdered by communist fanatics. One of the worst crimes committed in the twentieth century and one that only a totalitarian ideology could inspire. Yet Adams…
Why are so many journalists like Phillip Adams out and out bigoted liars? Contains a list of linked, telling items.
Philip Adams, child murderers and paedophilia
For the benefit of Adnews: the reason why the likes of Phuc Phil infest the advertising business is so they can make themselves wealthy, while contemplating immiserating millions of Australians, lying on behalf of Stalinist thugs, without having to get their hands grotty in the driver of advertising, capital, production for markets, and serving nasty little scumbags called the modest consumer.
Mind, for altogether different reasons, the Right and the Liberal Party is stuffed with and wrecked by types who want to be wealthy but without getting their hands dirty in production too. This lot of retarded oafs is ably served by the CIS and the IPA, with the HR Nicholl’s Society also doing their bit to completely destroy free markets, and great genuine Liberal causes.
Splendid, splendid, just spiffing splendid.
