Today in dispatches from the wild world of The Australian‘s opinion section. Jennifer Oriel, political researcher and occasional apparatchik of free market thinktank Institute of Public Affairs, has written a fun screed about the immense discrimination faced daily by society’s most victimised demographic: heterosexual white males. It was so good, obviously, that the paper’s editors catapulted it onto the front page:

Any doubt that Labor is captive to neo-Marxism was dispelled by its campaign to enforce compulsory queer political programming of schoolchildren under the misnomer “Safe Schools”.

Oriel is a favourite of the newspaper and one of its most baffling demagogues, is completely obsessed with the concept of ‘neo-Marxism’, as if Frankfurt School rejects and Karl Marx fans have anything but the barest influence on how politics is done in this country.

Clearly, a relatively innocuous anti-bullying program for LGBT kids in Australian schools being decimated because of pressure from the newspaper and a couple of conservative MPs is clear evidence that Marxists are the ones with their hands on the levers of power.

The rest of her output swings wildly between auguring the complete disintegration of Australian society by the sword of LGBT children, and the imminent death of European culture at the hands of refugees and migrants. It’s all very good, as you might imagine.

She writes:

“The racial classification “white” is attributed generally to people of Celtic, ­English or European descent. In academe, it is common to find statements about the group that would be classified as hate speech if applied to any other. When I was an undergraduate, the phrase “the only good male is a dead white male” was ubiquitous in the humanities.”

As economist and writer Tom Westland, writes on Twitter, that particular turn of phrase is so ubiquitous that Oriel appears to have coined it herself:

And in true, shining form, the piece ends with a reference to ‘Animal Farm’, because conservatives appear to not have read any books that aren’t critiques of the Soviet Union published in 1945.

A big thumbs up for The Australian and all the heterosexual white males of the world labouring under the cruel whip of, y’know, gay kids.
