These tactics are ridiculous Smith. #ashes

@patskarvelas.bsky.social Tim, don’t interrupt PK when she’s parroting Lib talking points. Didn’t you get the memo before you went on Afternoon Briefing?

Anyone still wondering why Adam Bandt wasn’t invited to any leadership debate? They’ve been seen as the frauds they are: never ready to govern and to make actual decisions, just a party of disruption and agitation.

Ffs sake, media. It’s not a culture war. It’s a Nazi-adjacent pursuit of out -and-out racist ends. Stop being complicit.

The outrage over WelcomeToCountry is a cynical ploy by Peter Dutton, exploiting Australia’s racial tensions for votes. It’s laughable that a respectful acknowledgment of Indigenous custodianship has become a political battleground. This isn’t leadership; it’s divisive pandering. Focus on real issues

Americans will destroy themselves with an unnecessary trade war and a potential depression because they can't stand seeing people of color and women moving up a bit and getting a small piece of the pie. Same as it ever was.

@danbourchier.bsky.social please ask cross eyed littleproud on Marco Rubios previous comments about Trumo and whether that hurt his relationship.

I’m as disappointed in the gutless Albanese as anyone, but the idea that Trump-aping opportunist Dutton and his gang of grifters are seen as a viable alternative just defies belief - particularly so soon after the Morrison debacle. What is wrong with his country??

If you care about women's rights If you care about workers' rights If you care about the unemployed If you care about the homeless If you care about people w. disabilities If you care about pensioners If you care about veterans PUT DUTTON LAST! #auspol #AusVotes25 #DicksonVotes #DumpDutton

@patskarvelas.bsky.social and Albo being on the front page of the Daily Telegraph a few years ago depicted as Sgt Schultz ( who was a Nazi)? Or was that just a bit of fun?

@patskarvelas.bsky.social looks like Kieth has been asleep for the past few months. Tell me how the actions of the current US administration align to our values?

@patskarvelas.bsky.social where’s the evidence of indoctrination PK? Fucking ask him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@patskarvelas.bsky.social hey PK; ask Bragg when he was last in a classroom observing. Or, is he just full of shit as usual. You do know your job is to question and challenge him, right?

What a surprise. The media covering a Chinese ship during an election campaign. Their bias is so transparent it’s laughable. I’m so sick of being treated like a moron by an industry full of morons.

NewsCorp's Greg Sheridan is lying. The world knows Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people in both the occupied territories of Gaza and the West Bank. It is abhorrent that The Australian published this blatant disinformation defending #IsraeliWarCrimes and the #GazaGenocide. 😠

Condemn. Start calling it a genocide. Stop the mass gaslighting. Expel Israeli ambassadors. Support the South Africa case at the International Court. Rip up weapons contracts with the genocidal regime. Isolate this apartheid state diplomatically like the world did with South Africa. A million things

Phrases I'd like news reports to use: • "unprovoked Russian invasion" • "Gaza genocide" Instead we get: • "Ukraine's war with Russia" (Russia is the aggressor, not Ukraine!) • "the war in Gaza" (Israel is murdering civilians!) Disgusted by mainstream news media. #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦 #FreePalestine 🇵🇸

So who is the knob hosting Afternoon Briefing today? Hasn’t pointed out to James whatshisface that the Treasurer has actually visited the US recently. Failure again, but it’s what we expect from the ABC these days.

So how fucking foolish is the Qld Premier. Softball interview on Sat night- full of the usual slogans. He has nothing else. A fucking child doing an adults job. Not able to lead in a time of crisis. Sending your kids to school today, Dave? You back to normal yet, Dave? Fucking idiot.

What’s disrespectful is Gina’s greed at the expense of the land and those that live there and her attempt to influence Australia’s elections. PG is right. She’s heinous. www.perthnow.com.au/entertainmen...

Gina Rinehart will be annoyed if: • Dutton loses his seat of Dickson. • More Teal independents are elected. • Labor holds onto Govt. Come on! Lets annoy Gina! 😁 #auspol #AusVotes25 #DicksonVotes

Jesus wept. Trump is in Putin’s pocket and Peter Dutton thinks he can lobby him to change his position on Ukraine. As stupid as he is embarrassing and yet this idiot could well be our next PM. FMD.

This is LuLu. Yes, she always has that worried look on her face. We sometimes call her Matron. 😊

So, just listening to Breakfast at Sweethearts at the mo. Mossy’s solos on Dresden are just the best. Brilliant.

@patskarvelas.bsky.social James McGrath? Why? He’s an absolute waste of space and time.

So, my FB news feed is constantly being taken up by RWNJ posts. Instead of just blocking them, I report them as misleading. Not sure it will do any good, but I feel better for it.

@patskarvelas.bsky.social hey PK: ask Angus how corporate profits tracked over the same time as reduced living standards

So, what are those Israeli fuckers waiting for before they clear up the rubble they’ve left in Gaza?

Diversity is a fact: All kinds of people exist. Equity is a goal: All kinds of people deserve a chance at success. Inclusion is how we get to equity. By including them, they can achieve success. It's that simple.

Oops 😬

FMD! Carrington Clarke refers to it an an “audacious” plan. Not one mention of the illegality of it. Fucking stenographer. Tear the ABC down and start again.

Ita Buttrose is like many women in the Liberal party, Queen Bees that pull the ladder up behind them so other women can't advance and challenge them.

As semi-Canadian (born there but Aus citizen with no real connection to my country of birth ) I say GO CANADA & TELL YOUR SOUTHERN NEIGHBOUR EXACTLY HOW IT CAN ROYALLY GET FUCKED

You listening Australia?

Reframe: Should the ABC be dismantled from the board room to the studio and rebuilt to not be so utterly shit?

@australianlabor.bsky.social FWIW; you’ve lost my vote over your stance in Gaza. Never thought I’d see the day when, not only did you not stand up and fight for the downtrodden and oppressed; but actively supported the oppressor. You’re dead to me.

Grace Tame: "Rupert Murdoch...doesn’t just own the news. He’s an oil baron, sits on boards w/ defence contractors. For 50yrs he has owned...public consciousness & contorted it in his own cruel image. I find [his] assault on democracy far more offensive & disrespectful than swear words on a Tshirt."

I don’t know how many fkn times I hve to say this.. When u have to create imaginary culture wars, lie, stoke division, create hate, fear & blame minorities & vulnerable ppl for your country’s problems.. & use that to attempt to win power & control.. ..u are a gormless knt & not a leader’s toe rag

No notes.

Policy free zone = unfounded insults. Real issues need real solutions. If you want to be the PM, do the work. #independenceworks

Gina’s favourite pet

Many times in my life have I missed out on stuff. Never, ever has it been BECAUSE I’m a (white) bloke. Discrimination isn’t just some life shit that pisses you off.

Israel is a terrorist state. Don’t vote for any politician who supports ethnic cleansing, apartheid, & the total destruction of infrastructure, homes, educational facilities & a civilian society. What’s to say they wouldn’t do it to you. #auspol

The ABC is failing the nation. I have watched and listened to the ABC nearly all of my 49 years. I have never known a time with such selective truth seeking, normalisation of evil and ineptitude and supporting an opposition leader. The Board is a national disgrace.

The same people who say evil billionaires like George Soros control the world elected a cadre of evil billionaires like Elon Musk to control the world.
