Ditch the Witch: When Political Satire Meets Selective Outrage in Victoria
But which witch should a witch ditcher ditch?
Ditch the witch? Well, sure. But which witch should a witch ditcher ditch?
Should we ditch the witch who added gender identity to the Sex Discrimination Act, thereby dooming female spaces?
How about the witch who remained silent when Moira Deeming was labelled a Nazi for advocating on behalf of women and girls?
What of the witch who slams as “hateful” the parents concerned about the influence of gender ideology on their kids?
And then there’s the coven of Karens casting their spells within the Federal Office of the Minister for Women… cackling “what does that even mean?” when someone dares mention “biological women”.
When it comes to choosing witches for ditching, Australians do seem rather spoiled for choice at the moment.
‘Sexist’ Claims from Those Who Won’t Define ‘Sex’
I only ask because Victorian Premier Hexa Plenty is in a tizz over billboards depicting her as a witch.
Hexa Plenty has labeled the ads “sexist”.
“People are entitled to disagree with me. That’s democracy. But I care that this attacks women.”
Wait. What?
Suddenly Hexa Plenty is worried about women’s rights?
Where was this concern when men identifying as women were barging into female only bathrooms and sporting competitions?
Where was this concern when women’s rights activist Sal Grover was being taken to the cleaners by someone who — in my sincere and honest opinion — is a man in a dress?
Hexa Plenty was mute on all of that.
But now that a scallywag with a mobile billboard has likened her to a spell weaving hag, she thunders…
“Nothing about this is normal!”
Her detractors would counter that nothing about Victoria is normal.
Not the crime.
Not the homelessness.
Not the drug injecting rooms, nor the taxpayer funded overdose medicine vending machines.
Not the trillion dollar debt.
Not the potholes.
Not the treaty.
None of it is normal.
But what vexes Hexa Plenty is being called a witch. And that tells you everything you need to know.
A “Ditch the Witch” billboard targeting Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan has sparked debate. Allan condemned the imagery as sexist, while One Nation Leader Pauline Hanson dismissed the complaints on Sky News, telling the Premier to “toughen up”. #auspol pic.twitter.com/tdrcvox3HC

Gillard and Albanese “Disgusted” by Billboards
Julia Gillard and Anthony Albanese have both run to Hexa Plenty’s defence.
Gillard said she was “disgusted” by the slur.
She said the signs were sexist and called for them to be removed.
I have questions.
How can you cry “sexism” when you refuse to define sex?
And how is it that Gillard — with all of her concern for women — demands the removal of a billboard but not the removal of gender identity from the Sex Discrimination Act?
Which is more vexatious to women?
Are the witch billboards currently circulating Melbourne polite? Of course not.
Are the witch billboards what we want to see? Not really.
Are the witch billboards the least of the problems facing women in this country? Absolutely.
That a coven of Karens are attempting to cast a spell convincing us otherwise is something we are well and truly awake to.
Whatever you think of of the Ditch the Witch billboards, someone needs to take a broom to Victoria!
