can we not fucking rediscover how prevalent male violence is again today and instead just go ahead and provide the income security and affordable housing that women and children need to get away from violent males.

and while we’re handwringing about young people apparently developing fully formed values independent of society, let’s pause to remember who grew up watching Australia endorse, amplify and reward a violent misogynist creep attacking the prime minister, a woman, every single day.

a violent misogynist creep who, along with his ideological mate Mike Baird in NSW, smashed women’s refuges, domestic violence services, and community legal centres. Isn’t it terrible about those young people and their *attitudes*.

if you’re worried about the opinions of teenagers around domestic violence wait until you hear about the actions of politicians.

I can promise you that teenage boys have got nothing on the mass destruction caused by police and magistrates and family courts in the domestic violence realm.

but don’t expect a thoroughly discredited organisation that can not even vet its own recruits for violent misogynists to address the problem of when handwringing over *young peoples attitudes* are right there for them to leverage off and rebuild the brand.

fuck white ribbon. They put the focus on young people to rebuild their shitty useless harmful brand instead of working for structural change. Abolish police. Build secure affordable housing. Fuck the patriarchy. Stop. Blaming. Young. People. for the system we maintain.
