    Watch as Morrison Government Senator Ben Small uses the tactic of not letting somebody else speak to prove his point. It's very interesting. If you look closely you can notice how he has literally nothing of substance to add. The audacity, once again, is impressive AF.

    After MP Kate Thwaites shared her disappointing experience on Twitter, she received an influx of support, even from people outside of Australia. You see, mansplaining is universal.  It serves as a constant inconvenience to women all over the world. Isn't that beautiful?

    Let's see more of how Twitter responded.

    Font - St Mary MacKiller @StMaryMacKiller · 2h Sometimes an interviewer or presenter has to make the decision as to whether to intercede, or whether the case is best illustrated by letting the person hang themselves with their own rope. This is one such instance. 27 6 124

    Font - Helen 'Sewer Rat' Robertson @HelenRobertson4 · 1h I did wonder why the host was even there. No word of correction. When people are so rude their microphone needs to be turned off. Just a little button under the desk would be good. 10

    Font - Rodd Clarkson @mrmintslice · 1h ... Replying to @ThwaitesKate Ah #bensmall, how big do you feel right now. Classic example of the #LNPToxicCulture were you spout platitudes and do the opposite. My favourite was you claiming you haven't pointed fingers and then later in the same interview pointing fingers. You can't even hear yourself.
