I've recently found myself embedded in the above conversations with morons pretending to be people who have said things that made me wince and think: ''Where do I start? If they don't get the basics, what else don't they get? Is there enough time? Can I be fagged? I've got to be in an old people's home in 2048.''

The Queensland teenager facing jail for procuring an abortion by using a pharmaceutical not easily accessible to Australian woman despite it being widely and legally available in Europe and Britain.

''Sure, women, disabled, gays, non-English speakers, people with a skin colour other than white and folk who have not had the educational and life opportunities most of us take for granted are not all forming chain gangs, locked up in institutions, homeless, kept behind bars or solely employed as servants or sideshows in a circus. Not all but still some.

''People who look different, act differently, believe different things than has been constructed as the norm by people with a vested interest in reinforcing their own power have been marginalised and despite huge advances in some cases and token efforts in others, still are.

''Rich white straight-acting blokes who believe in God, or pretend to, hold a disproportionate amount of the world's power and have for centuries. It's not because, as many would like you to believe, it's a case of 'we are the best, chuck out the rest'. It's simply due to circumstance. Class, freedom, money and education are the basis of power. And access to these is almost entirely due to where you were born and to whom. Sexually transmitted hereditary privilege and genitally determined advantage. It is natural for those with power to monopolise it by controlling everyone else via social engineering, religious oppression, financial constraint, access to democracy and fearmongering. Think access to voting, education, fertility control, representation in government, financial support for people not living in nuclear family situations and equal opportunity in the workplace.

''To many people this seems logical and common knowledge, but it's not. Political correctness has led to more people simply barracking on both sides in the face of discrimination and injustice issues without understanding how we got here, what's keeping us here, why we need to move on and what's holding us back.

''Rich white straight-acting blokes who believe in God, or pretend to, have a disproportionate amount of power, which is not going to be destabilised by a joke here or some affirmative action there. Despite any illusion of injustice they may choose to employ.
