Didn't see this but it's no surprise it worked.

Australians are TERRIFIED of Dloe bludgers ripping them off. There's this feeling that there THESE EPOPLE ALL AROUND US, GETTING MONEY FOR NO REASON and they're fgoing to make society CRUMBLE AROUND US and we should force EVERYONE WHO CAN WORK TO WORK! MAKE WEFARE DEPENDENT OF GETTING EDUCATION!! MAKE THEM DID WELLS IN AFRICA!! OR JOIN THE ARMY!! IF THEY REFUSE, FUCK THEM! THEY CAN ROT IN THE STREETS!!!!

Even rational, intelligent people will turn into knuckle dragging bogans when this issue pops up.

QuoteBTW, today tonight is the fox news of the australian world.

Except Fox has CONTENT even if its wrong. Half of TT is advertising.
The worst part is they advertise a lot of things under the guise of being 'outraged' about it. "There is a TERRIBLE service MANIPULATING poor women to give lapdances, you can CONTACT them at OZLAPPY.NET! for REASONABLE prices"

The super-aggressive 'China is Communist Utopia' sentiment in the comments bug me.

I used to have a big interest in the 'underground community/people' idea, and forgot about it.

Very sad situation.

Follow Nigel's link. I'm talking about the nationalistic tone of the comments on the page.

The cave people kinda remind me of Kowloon Walled City (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kowloon_Walled_City) in China. Except that was a fortress and not a sewer.
