Lord Downer’s brain…

… is there anything there to find!

We’ve all got friends or relatives, is my guess, that we reckon aren’t wired quite right. Right?

People who think reality shows are real. That Dave Hughes is genuinely funny. Those who believe Pauline Hanson is a battlers’ champion, despite the overwhelming evidence that she’s not. That we’re all going to be able to use AI for free for ever more.

Those who say blindingly stupid, logic-free things that have you suspecting at least part if not most of their brain is not functioning terrible well, to put it mildly.

Which is why I’ve often thought over the years that some people’s brains really need forensic examination by specialists to try, at least, to fathom how they turned out that way.

Example? I’ve always thought Ted Bundy should never have been fried and he’s still in a maximum security institution somewhere in a vegetative state with more probes attached to his noggin than Barnaby Joyce has had one final palette cleanser after a long lunch.

And that’s a damn fine reason why I think the brain of Lord Downer of the Adelaide Hills needs such a microscopic, long-term analysis.

Now hold on! I’m not a sadist. I’m talking about when the good Lord of Pout House in the Adelaide Hills passes, and only then should what passes for his brain be examined by a phalanx of psychiatrists and psychologists and sociologists and maybe some veterinarians as well.

Well, unless a majority of these mind whisperers explain that the Lord’s brain would disclose much more useful information if living – and only on that basis would I say: “Let’s get skull cracking then!”

So what’s the latest piece of nonsense from Lord Downer that has sparked this rant?

Here it is. In a commentary piece in a recent edition of The Australian broadshit, Dear Old Curly argued that the result in Israel’s general election undermined claims that Israel is a genocidal or non-democratic state.

Breath-takingly stupid, isn’t it? A record turnout of Israel’s Arab-Israeli voters – about a fifth of the electorate – has Curly claiming “a genuine democracy holding highly contested, high-turnout elections involving its minority populations directly disproves the genocide and apartheid labels frequently used by international critics and UN bodies”.

That we now have 19 future Knesset members as kingmakers who might be able to decide which of two Jewish groups opposed to a two-state solution should govern and that’s proof positive in Curly’s brain that the razing of Gaza and the killing of tens of thousands of innocent civilians including 20,000 plus kids was not genocide, the ongoing murder of West Bank Palestinian home owners is not ethnic cleaning, turning southern Lebanon into a Gaza-strip lookalike is not territorial expansion, the … ah, fuck it! I’ve bored you BUGgers with enough of this already over time. You know drill.

And speaking of drills, let’s all hope that surgical cranial drills appear shortly in Aldi’s bargain bins! Who’s with me?
