I love the naked mole rat. Did you know it's one of the only (if not the only) mammalian eusocial species? Meaning it has a similar social structure to ants. A queen, workers etc. The Greater Blind Mole Rat is beautiful though, even though they're not eusocial.

[@markcarey67]

The amazing thing is that the criteria for a eusocial mammal was predicted before one was ever discovered by evolutionary biologist Dick Alexander....then it was found: "Richard D Alexander made a prediction based on first principles of the evolution of social behavior. Although common in social insects, eusociality-the social system with a queen and sterile workers-was unknown in any other taxa. Under the appropriate set of conditions, Alexander predicted, evolution ought to produce a eusocial vertebrate, even though eusociality in the naked mole-rat (or any other vertebrate) was unknown at the time."

[@markcarey67]

Parenthetically I disagree with some of the common stricter criteria of eusociality although I'm in allegiance with E.O. Wilson on this - I think it is indisputable that humans are eusocial - if you have cities, armies, agriculture trade and free movement of people and information between unrelated colonies then you are undoubtedly eusocial unless you want to invent another name for something beyond eusociality.

Nothing right wing about our Liberal party. The two parties are left or far left. There is absolutely nothing 'conservative' with the way the liberals have been running the economy. Printing, borrowing and spending endless amounts of money as well as shutting down the economy for no recorded effect (with all the world wide lockdowns, 95% of the world population caught the '19, and they got told this would happen regardless of lockdown, but they knew better). All this behaviour is leftwing, and a more socialist style of running an economy and society, and it is exactly why inflation and interest rates are sky rocketing, death rates from cancer and unknown causes have exploded and are far higher now than at anytime over covid, way higher. Nobody is talking about that though, because they don't give a sh1t about the lives of citizens, they just say they do because dopes fall for it. I will repeat, there is nothing conservative about the Liberals.

Jordies, long time watcher first time commentator (probably have commentated a few, but the whispers of alcohol can give a young man length, depth and breadth of confidence). I speak to you not as the lone journalist but as the team of people that through the voice of one can shine a light on the darkest parts of our local society and political system. The gap between comedic relief and true journalism has thwarted the tards we get on Aussie TV (i.e. The Project). I find it, in honest words, fucking beautiful how you can now tailor a small segment to our American friends who now can see the influence that the grey crusty ex-Australian leather (he shall have no name) has on their media. Just keep doing what you've always done. Alas I'm not in a financial position to contribute to patreon as of date, however I hope my words can offer small credence to all of your work. P.s as a studying scientist I'd love to look into more of the push for STEM in schools. It seems the only way to make "money" in those fields is to contribute to the defence/fossil fuel force.

i'm trans and queer but absolutely hate when people use those terms as guilt smearing, "envy me for my endured hate, anyways here's my biased story about something entirely unrelated to that which furthers my own agenda" I am in no way dunking on those who fight for rights, and these things do happen a lot, but guilt and clout farming is simply gross and undermines the actual advocates. as Fahrenheit 451 said, the first means of mass oppression is the minorities being able to unlist any media because it's vaguely offensive to them, just because Shrek 2 made an aged joke once about a cross dresser doesn't mean it needs to be hidden from the eyes of the people. so this man saying he's gay for empathy (using his opinion to further biased media and by extension sway people towards unreliable information) only to do things like throw a pity party about a family needing to get basic employment and contribution to society is just gross. it's a problem in media everywhere, especially within some LGBTQ people, and I don't think people are called out enough on it. it even gives queer minorities a bad rap for a few bad accounts infesting Twitter and things like this, and it's not okay! thanks for reading my vent comment, and please remember that it's okay to call these people out and that they do NOT represent their community as a whole. people who use these tactics on a bigger scale such as this are disgusting individuals, and I hope they get what they deserve one day.

[@penispensar9071]

I think this is a topic that is hard not to polarize on. On one hand, dark humor is a perfectly permissible thing, but on the other, straight up making insensitive jokes with the punch line being somebody’s existence is pretty damn cringe. A cross dresser joke in a Pixar film isn’t worth cancel culture, plus a lot of jokes like that ARE funny. However, I think it’s also okay to express annoyance or anger at genuine attempts to harm. Me personally, I wouldn’t take someone I don’t know well making homophobic jokes at me. Or a politician known for campaigning against queer rights. But I do find those jokes funny with peers. Issue is, people see “cross dresser joke in shrek movie not big deal” and equate it with “people should be allowed to make any insensitive joke with no repercussions”, and the other side sees “politicians shouldn’t make demeaning jokes about trans people” with “no dark or edgy humor or anything construed as anti-trans should ever be uttered”..

The saddest part about this is that he connected four twice, and they will still say he's payed by labour. At least he will always have a smooth transition into a patreon ad

[@ResonanceSD]

Ja Rule's Funktime Spooktacular has really taken a turn.

[@volpe7436]

Ya know Jordon can i just say i'm glad you do video's like this I never would of known public executions are still legal in this day and age

[@edwardfletcher7790]

If Rick's parents had a "Governess" how the Hell is he working class ??? But I guess like every stereotype he loves Mummy the most.. LOL

[@85inexact]

Went to school with Rick, couldn't have happened to a more deserving bloke.

[@selbie]

'Bunyip Aristocracy' - I'm stealing that one. I can picture a bunch of swamp creatures in top hats and monocles complaining about the woke mob.

[@Charlycakes]

So hard being a child of a single parent who cant afford parking in the city... My mum was a single mum of 6 kids and found a way to get us fed and housed, while we pretty much had to fend for ourselves. We have all made a successful lives for ourselves and never whinged or complained about it. This man is so far removed from actual struggle and hardship. Yea our lives weren't easy but we are grateful we won the birth lottery being born in Australia, not Afghanistan or China. What a Narcissistic, oblivious, and entitled fool.

[@majorscenery1394]

Another fine entry for the 'friendlyjordies scorched earth' catalogue

[@acenio654]

The connect 4 showing you had already won this but went on to double destroy them is quite the touch

[@martinalovett7581]

I had an argument with my boss today, this made me feel better. Really it was an out and out yelling match. I won.

[@Jack671975]

Thank you Jordan. Listening to you and Keating take down the so call journalists brings a tear to my 47 yr old eyes.

[@ALargeMammal]

Holy shit what a thumbnail. That's some of the most eye catching and funny baked meme type stuff. Great work.

[@skylar5257]

Been watching since you talked about your house being burnt down. This has been a great pastime seeing someone be able to be an actual journalist.

[@ravenwaves6785]

The childhood described in the podcast (?) is the childhood of 7/10 kids at my rural public highschool, with 2 of 10 probably being worse off than that and 1/10 being secure. I'm not saying it's not tough to go through the loss of a parent (family breakdown, divorce, addiction, neglect, suicide, etc) and financial stress but I don't consider that degree of disadvantage to be exceptional. It was and probably still is just that common.

[@hoilst265]

It looks terrible and unique because in Rick's journalistic milieu - as Jordan says, Melbourne Private School girls whose first car was something made in Germany with leather seats - it is UNTHINKABLY impoverished. In that they've never had to think about it before. It's a new concept to them. "UNABLE TO AFFORD STUFF?!" "NOT LIVING IN MELBOURNE?!" Oh my god, the tragedy of it all! Source: am a rural kid who is...yeah...a journo and a writer and am *constantly* asked to mine my childhood trauma for the feckless urbanites. I know *exactly* the types Jordan is talking about.

[@Einherji81]

love your work Jordie, I am rooting for you from Iceland your work is very imporant. Watching you destroy all the tools like that is poetry

[@SiRPLUS328]

Jordies giving Rick Morten the Amercian history X gutter head kick lmao

[@Silkysime]

He'll write 3 more books from the trauma out of this video

[@jeffkaplentm]

Over 30 mins of jordies, I can't wait to get home from work

[@sylviahawthorne8745]

Its incredible how his ‘trauma’ in housing commission (for two minutes) is the average lower class experience. Why are people like him talking to and for the nation??

[@TaureanTrish]

I am stoked you have a new fan base from the States! Loving reading their comments too. It seems you hit the political mark in a LOT of places. And thanks for the 'bunyip aristocracy' reference. Never heard that before so I had to look it up. That and 'squattocracy' absolutely ring true for the history of our colonisation. Nice dig....

[@Raidori768]

Rationalizations that silence your last shred of humanity really got me, good one

[@firaasantar4503]

Friendlyjordies treats politics like youtube drama and i fully support it

[@kemasuk]

I'm surprised you didn't bring up that naked mole rats are the only mammal to have essentially a hivemind.

[@winkle1983]

I’m from the US and know nothing about any of these people…but I click immediately and am a proud patreon bc he is doing important work!

[@patrickwilliamson29]

Australians tip our hats to you sir

[@My_Old_YT_Account]

Inb4 they go full Trudeau and say "muh foreign funding"

[@tbone2646]

Nobody in Australia knows who they are either, they're just nobody hack journalists

[@callummack7098]

I love how every time a journalist complains about a specific aspect of Jordan's comedy he leans into it immediately lmao

[@ThatGuy-mr2el]

I live about 300km from Rick Morton and I can honestly say this is the first I've heard of him. He's written three books about himself? Narcissism in it's most evil form. Imagine if this guy actually held power? Things could be far worse than they have been the past few years in this country!

[@thetruth45678]

As a twice-orphaned and abused ward of the state who grew up in foster care and was put out on the streets at 18 with no experience in dealing witth society having been institutionalized from a very young age, this was glorious to watch. Fuck Rick. Aw, did your parents divorce? Poor boy. Well, at least you had parents.

[@joshpaterson8878]

I'm a firm believer in a whipping and these digital whippings I just as good

[@DavidBirdMcbride]

I’m glad we’re on the same side as @friendlyjordies . He is Attila the Hun when it comes to destroying his enemies! 😂😂⚔️⚔️

[@rio6653]

As a Canadian i have no idea what you’re on about but I’m sure you’re right, keep up the good work man.

[@Stephanie-we5ep]

It's reassuring to see that you can always count on corrupt politicians to be corrupt. I swear there's something in the air

[@kingalphawerewolf]

yeah that thing in the air is the fecal fumes leaking from between the corpo-journalists and politicians ears.@@Stephanie-we5ep

[@Manup2day]

This is undoubtedly the worst journalism I have ever had to witness!...and I fucking love IT!! Subscribed from NZ. Brilliant 👏 👏 👏

[@savage6394]

I find it incredibly Epic that not only did #FriendlyJordies deal crushing blow after crushing blow to the Deputy Premier. Sorry, I mean BRUZ. That it “forced” BRUZ to quit, but also how #FriendlyJordie is such a threat to “Journalists” they have to run completely false Hit pieces about him. You’re obviously doing something right #FreindlyJordie. Keep up the Great and Entertaining work!

[@Lord_Swoledemort]

Oi bruh who the hell uses hashtags in a KZbin comment?

[@Old_Jack_Ketch]

I was like that kid in The Simpsons crying, “Stop! He’s already dead!”

[@koulamused]

Love your work Jordan! And yes newspapers never ‘used to be good’. I grew up in Adelaide, birth place of Murdoch Press, and it’s publications were always fear mongering RW shit.

[@AcidicFilming]

I'm considering moving to Aus and getting into politics just so Jordie can break me down and humble me. Amazing vid even as a Brit that's not into politics

[@fracturedlife1393]

I don't know how I, in Northern Ireland, was recommended this, but damn NI could do with an FJ.

[@tommiemcswizzle1485]

Laughed my friggin head off when mole rats mum had to get a job for the first time and she had to budget for parking meters and Jordies monacle fell into the champagne HAHAHAHA

[@ComicNerd592]

The roasting one liners in the video particularly got me. Laughed out loud multiple times. Absolute arsonist!

[@drifter402]

Jordies Vs Journos never gets old.

[@realkangaroocafevietnam]

When I was with the CFMEU one of their most senior & best liked Journos belted shit out of my reputation during the then Giles Royal Commission into the then BWIU now CFMMEU. I screamed my head off until the weak, bum sniffer agreed to a retraction. I got 3 lines on page 19 & that says it all about the SMH & Brown in particular.

I think you are downplaying Jordies incredible skills at pissing off journalists 😂

I cannot get past the two already pre-existing connect-fours visible in frame as he leads up to the big one. My guy the game was already over
