If anyone reads Neil Lyndon's 'Return of the Heretic', he documents how he was also scape goated and the inflammatory accusations that were made against him.
More and More I see aspects of "Female Relational Aggression" at play. The HR manager was on a power trip to shame and humiliate the enemy.
He documents aspects of the destruction of his reputation, also his son's mother was an alcoholic who was given custody of him. This article had been deleted from the newspaper site.
I've read it from the link above and yes he talks about his wife and son.
In other lands, such media/journalistic/government reports would be called 'radicalisation' and yet we see it as ?? free speech or honest reporting...
I found it a further eye opener for me personally, but for many things and my associations. To ask questions in general...
Quote from article: "Just before Christmas, in December 1991, she took our son to Scotland, where she went to court and, without my knowing that her application was being heard, obtained a temporary order giving her custody in Scotland. The reason she gave for abducting our son was that I was causing her embarrassment by openly conducting an affair in Suffolk, where we lived. In support of her application for custody, extracts were presented to the court from my writings about feminism, as if these proved that I must be a monster and an unfit father"
Why is it that she could do this without him being involved? There is something seriously wrong with the law here and the Judge!!! I know people might know this, but I'm not in this situation and like such 'ammunition'... to re think things.
Quote: "Angela Lambert confidently informed Independent readers that I was all worked up because my child had been swiped away to Scotland ..." well even if the man was insane, 'being upset' is still a legitimate emotional response for goodness sake!!
I think we can all wake up when reading such articles and what I understand is that we are trained to become 'inhuman' by such responses from people like Angela Lambert..... males and females are/were trained...
From many of the cases covered by Bettina's articles it seems that juries are now throwing out most of these trumped up cases of sexual assault , at last juries are waking up and hopefully police will get tired of losing and change their ways.
Take the case the late Kevin Ibbs, charged and convicted of rape even though the woman had consented but then changed her mind . That was over 30 years ago and the jury could be best described as naive and prudish , poor Kevin had no chance.
But if his case was tried now he would more likely be found not guilty.
At the beginning of the video [2:27] and in relation to the, vote on: ' The Voice in Australia', Alan talks about 'being bullied by the Government, preached, intimidated or silenced by the Sports Bodies speaking on behalf of share holders and employees..., Corporations, etc., etc.,' What I find excellent is the quote by a Brian Barker - “The Constitution of Australia is there for the benefit of the people of Australia, not the Corporations of Australia, so what right do those major companies have, or any companies for that matter, in trying to influence the vote in a certain way on the voice … one would’ve thought they had an overriding responsibility to keep out of such political matters and leave it to the people of Australia to decide. From where do these corporations get their authority to proclaim a position on the voice? Did they seek the views of all their shareholders, people who actually own them?”
This wording can be used as feedback, maybe with some re-writing, for those Organisations that you see as trying to ‘influence’ you or society. Remember the famed Gillette advertisement telling us what a man is! My own example: as a gay man I have benefitted from Same-Sex-Marriage but I totally disagreed with Alan Joyce, CEO and a gay man, of Qantas telling us that Qantas backed this change. If I'd had the above words and courage I would have given Qantas feedback... I just saw his actions as going after the Pink Dollar!!
Have courage, email a corporation/organisation today!
What we need is an information pack and video series to educate all 16 - 18 year old boys on exactly how the system works and how it will treat them. They need to be educated on the reality of modern society so that they can take appropriate behaviours to protect themselves.
What is happening for the last 30 years or more is that men are mislead in their expectations of society and of our systems. We need to educate the next generation on what can and will happen to them if they are alone with a woman or involved in a divorce etc.
Nothing will generate changes in the law and system like an entire generation of women who have to deal with men who are educated on how things really work.
How sad that Senator Stocker was forced into making a statement, even if it was to set the record straight with her side of story. Non the less the media were quite prepared to sacrifice her privacy. As for Lydia Thorpe, I don't know of any other politician who would be allowed to get away with the behaviour that she has consistently demonstrated. Of course the politicians are too scared to do anything - she's a human headline.
I found ex Senator Stockers' statement and admission an interesting case.
She says that it was all cleared and she was satisfied and yet she jumped at the chance to help crucify Senator Van 'without any proof' from Senator Thorpe!
Both Senators have now tarnished Senator Van's name without going to the Police.
We have females in Parliament complaining about the 'conditions' and yet not really doing anything 'legally' about it... equal 'go to the police', go to 'Court'... This is certainly not good role modelling for Australian workers.... not at all...
While ex Senator Stocker might be telling the truth, I consider what she has done 'unethical'...
I'm not sure she umped at the chance Jamie, I think the media would have hounded her until she said something and that may have been more damaging for Senator Van. From what I have read the media were onto it quite early and she was not commenting. It's a crazy world at the moment.
yep.. thanks.. good point and also something I'm starting to think about more.. the Media's involvement in promoting 'stuff' just for headlines and earning advertising revenue... I'm very much on a line at the moment that: the media is interfering with Democracy.. coercive control maybe !! And yes, it's a crazy world at the moment..
Does anyone know of cases of financial abuse being used to obtain apprehended violence orders? Please get in touch with me via my website if you can help with personal stories where this has happened. I am particularly interested in how the banks are becoming involved in this territory.
"Financial Violence" what next? this is the result of allowing the definition of "violence" to be widened to ridiculous extremes, the same applies to the definition of sexual assault.
I have heard of a few cases here in WA ie. a man cuts up his wife's credit cards because she was spending too much, the woman got a violence order against the man , who was as usual kicked out of his own house by police , but maybe this woman was advised by her bank to do this . I will try to get the details .
The banks have been enthusiastic supporters of the war against men, no surprise since most of their employees are women, and the feminist influence is obvious.
But where is the common sense here? there is no connection at all between a financial matter and a violent act, but in the twisted logic of feminists anything can be violent.
My sons have chosen healthcare and teaching as long term career paths. I am pleased that they chosen to go into such noble professions, but also worried that their lives could be turned upside by a false, even trivial complaint.
I have a good friend whose mantra is : Happy wife, happy life. No wife even happier life, which is sad as he is a most kind and generous person. I also have delightful female colleagues, accomplished intelligent with much to offer, yet lonely for male companionship.
This current silliness is benefiting no one. When the joy and fun, of time honoured courtship rituals have been reduce to procedures and policies manuals in some self serving HR department , I see loneliness and loss of the possibility of something good that might have been.
"asking a female staff member if she would accompany him to the staff social club Christmas party. " What a shitty person she was to do this to him! Honestly...
Anyway, I can personally say that: if you have the courage, always go higher... in fact, if the going gets tougher then go straight to a lawyer. There are some good HR people around and there are some very bad ones. They are really finance people in disguise and only care about money not work place 'loveliness'.
1. A gay friend went to HR to complain how he was sexually propositioned by a married man. Nothing happened and then some time later he found out he wasn't the only gay man sexually propositioned by this married man and when HR did nothing again, he threatened to go to a lawyer - the man was gone within the week;
2. I was receiving 'snarky' performance reviews. Petty stuff. Finally, I'd had enough and a Project Manager friend coached me to say: I want to know instantly if anything is wrong with my performance and not 3 to 6 months down the track, otherwise I'm going straight to HR. I never had a bad performance review again;
3. there are other stories in that company I used to work for. But, something different happened recently where by a friend who helps Refugees here where I live, had approached a company about a refugee not receiving money that was agreed to by this Refugee Handling Company; my friend complained twice to the Admin people - nothing. The Refugee could lose their status. I said: go to the top! He did and all is fixed now.. after 2 or so months.
Got the courage, go higher... companies do not like bad press. Big Telecommunication Companies who boast about Diversity, etc., etc., 'do not like bad press'... threaten these people with 'a news paper' or 'become a whistleblower'.. - contact a journalist anonymously and go from there...
I was advised during my career, to go to the top if there was a problem and it has always served me well. What amazes me is how "watered down" some of the HR rules have become. It is like a minefield in the workforce now, especially for men. No wonder they want to be known as women (only joking).
Yes!! My experience is that the 'policies/rules' were available to everyone via the Intranet but because people were not aware of them or even read them.. then Leaders did what they thought was appropriate. I remember a young woman, many years ago now, talked to me about her manager and the situation was hopeless - when I told her about the Harassment rules - available for all to read - she said: he has never counselled me or any of what I read o the HR website.. it is as if he wants me to resign and I'm out of his hair.. Of course I suggested she go higher or speak to the Union/lawyer..
I love talking about this stuff..I'm gossipy but I really want people to empower themselves.. I've struggled with this myself.. it wasn't until I had read the 'policies' that I realised we fed 'lip-service'. The same office and a female colleague was told by our manager that she had no more sick leave and yet her contract and Policies all stated 'up to the manager'.. but the manager wouldn't say it truthfully: I am not approving any more sick leave. The manager hid behind their own interpretations but my colleague knew her stuff and won in the end...
I know of a Child Safety Officer who was on numerous occasions gave female clients strategies on how to create situations with the ex partner to gather evidence for family court and police complaints.
I find what Senator Larissa Waters wore to the Midwinter Ball in Canberra makes me feel that I would feel unsafe in her presence and is a sexual assault on ALL men, and clearly shows why men are being treated badly - when Government Senators do such thing and show bias. I've emailed Adam Bandt about this.
"Queensland Greens senator Larissa Waters dazzled in maroonish red. Senator Waters wore a earrings with the message 'Stop violence against women' written on them and a badge which read 'Boys will be boys' with the final word crossed out and the phrase 'held accountable' added"
The feminist "use" of this is a disgrace. They know damned well it only ever meant boys will get grubby and skin their knees. One of the things which drove me to become a feminist heretic decades ago was when they had clearly started going after boys with their nastiness. Were it up to me no feminist would be allowed near any boys at all.

Thank you Bettina
My instinct tells me that Lydia Thorpe’s accusations achieved exactly what was intended. And the media lapped it up.
I’m appalled by reading the comments below on shocking injustices to men. Who is working to correct this in the legal/judiciary/court area?
Thankful for Bettina’s work in media

Unfortunately no. Is it looking like the banks are supporting any claim with transactions used as evidence?
nice.. that is a great step sideways to investigate... Corporate interference in daily life...!!
thanks for mentioning the Alan Jones interview, Stephen. I was delighted Alan gave me so much time to explain what is going on. Here's the link. The discussion starts around 11 minutes in. https://watch.adh.tv/alan-jones-full-shows/season:3/videos/bettina-arndt-ted-woodley-tuesday-20-june-2023.
Nice to see you Bettina and giving an overall picture of the Higgins case and now the political in fighting that is going on.
Unfortunately the article in the Australian by Claire Lehmann is behind a paywall so I am unable to read it, but it sounds interesting.
