Day five: Multi-cultural bullshit

“Chinese language #influencers who mostly post lifestyle content are interviewing election candidates on the social media app #Rednote, allowing politicians to bypass an apparent “shadow ban” on #campaigning by the app and reach a disengaged but vital audience.

The interviews with influencers who usually post about food, real estate and shopping have been published on a platform that is not actively monitored by the Australian Electoral Commission due to Rednote’s scale and the commission’s resources.

#ScottYung, the #Liberal candidate for the ultra-marginal Sydney seat of #Bennelong, where almost one-third of residents have #Chinese ancestry, has featured in multiple interviews shared by #Mandarin speaking influencers on Rednote in recent weeks.”

I note Scotty (another Scotty) highlighted himself due to State campaigning irregularities in 2019. Johhny (War crimes) Howard is all over the #Bennelong campaign. Howard, one step away from #CCP influence campaign. Handy Andy Hastings will be in fits.

This isn’t a “Chinese thing”, this is a “Politics thing” where a multicultural background is weaponised for candidates against the rest of Australian #voters.

If an investor sells their property, that same property becomes available for purchase, likely to a new homeowner or another investor. Either way, it doesn't reduce the housing stock—it just shifts it from one owner to another. So, the argument that selling properties would lead to a reduction in rental stock doesn't hold. Also, it's worth considering that the publisher of this article earns 90% of its profits from property advertising. That raises questions about potential bias in their reporting on this issue.

“Without property investors in the market, there won’t be enough stock of rental properties, and you’ll see a massive increase in rent because the people who do have properties will be looking to positively gear them, and other people won’t be buying them.”
