Also, on topic, I see a lot of the #FeelTheBern hashtag through my feed, from the Americans... and quite a few non-Americans too, lol? I've been recently told that he has no chance though, despite topping polls. Because your elections don't work that way.
In Oz politics, there has been some pretty funny stuff regarding our recent change of Prime Minister though. I have lol'd on many occasions.
For people not properly versed in Oz politics, you vote for a political party, and not a person, like in the US. The elected party can vote and throw out the leader if they get the s with him/her, so you end up with a new "leader" (Prime Minister) running the country. It's happened quite a bit.
Oh Tony, lol. |

| like TA, i dont care as long as the position is considered and reasonable. i realise im an intolerant cunt, but some of the i have to put up with makes me judge my friends to the point where i hope they suffer. if you don't wish to be crushed by my greater experience with idiots, don't ing post stupid ; likewise stop getting stroppy when i point out your errors. if you're so ing afraid of reality stop celebrating your ignorance to the world. |

The first person to get filtered out of my feed was a high school friend who posted nothing but Bible verses, links to religious books, and his commentaries about how Obama and liberals are sending the country to hell. |

A Malaysian friend of mine is a huge Bernie Sanders supporter, I love it!
I WOULD support him if the US had a multi-party system (much like I think Jeremy Corbyn is great) because he could enter a coalition with a junior partner who would eventually bring them more to the centre ground.
So, yeah, Clinton 2016!

Australian politics is great! I won't even lie, I still think Julia Gillard is a FPMILCW (Former Prime Minister I'd Like to Cuddle With).

Hallelujah!
The only person I've ever blocked is a ultramontane Catholic who posted nothing but Bible verses, links to religious books, and his commentaries about how Dilma and The Workers' Party are sending the country to hell.
