Does anyone know what good those Australians who support Trump would like to see come from the global disorder he has created?

Smart, grown up govt www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

First, he threatens to take Greenland by force, now he is threatening to tariff anyone who stands in his way. First, he claimed tariffs were a way to fix the so-called trade imbalance. Now he’s openly using them to bully the free world.

If you've ever wondered how the Iraq and Iran wars were allowed to happen, and all the failed interventions since, just look at how fucking distraught the western media is that it didn't get its war in Iran. We are dealing with psychos.

For all the talk about Australian values this absence [bill of human rights] is a telling reminder of the fragility of our rights as citizens and human beings.

"Given that the consensus is that Australian constitutional change is just too hard, a statutory bill of rights could have symbolic as well as practical impact. It would also strengthen Australian advocacy in a world where #humanrights are increasingly derided." @juliannes.bsky.social #auspol

Let me summarise … We voted for IDEOLOGY We all now see the folly of not voting for SOLUTIONS Now we need to call out duopoly GASLIGHTING

We voted for lower taxes. We voted for privatisation. We voted for monopolisation. We voted to remove ‘red tape’. Now we bitch incessantly about the cost of living. We’ve got precisely what we have voted for #auspol

If we survive this, I'll be changed by the fact that I can no longer not know that at any given time, ⅓ of the people are gleeful at the prospect of those they despise getting hurt or killed, and ⅓ of the people are apathetic as long as they personally aren't inconvenienced by the hurting, and your

You thieving pos return all our bus stops now. I notice another one has been closed down on regency road, formerly Irish Harp road, 300 bus stop 16 North side, under some shade. Also stop 18 North side, outside a recreation place for the elderly. The opposite one outside the pub is still open.

And why do they refuse to conduct basic fact checks? If I didn't know about art, I'd at least scan the artists' Wiki pages before splashing my wrong opinions all over the internet.

Stop saying we shouldn’t impeach Nazis because they’ll be replaced by someone worse. We should never stop fighting to remove these evil monsters. Don’t obey in advance.

Dear Mr Albanese, (I refuse to use your self designated, childish, schoolyard nickname to wit @albomp.bsky.social) how do you reconcile your decision for an RC into anti-genocide protest against a religious terrorist cult when the Australian constitution states the following on the matter:

It has been almost seven years since a West Australian coroner handed down 42 recommendations into the suicide deaths of 12 young Indigenous people in the state's far north. Since then, at least 283 young people aged 15 to 24 across WA have taken their lives.

It’s one thing for a social group to think themselves a ‘chosen people’ for religious or cultural reasons. But to enshrine a special status in Australian law is offensive to everyone else, and just plain weird.

Any concern for the climate crisis, even pretended, has now gone in the collapse of civilisation, from here on in it will be full (coal & oil & gas driven) steam ahead off the cliff #ClimateCrisis

The law does not (should not) base decisions on how inconvenient fixing your mistake would be. It's about whether you were legally wrong to do it in the first place. Fixing it is your problem.

Good morning. A regular reminder: a tiny few hoard staggering wealth and own much of the media, while millions struggle to survive. That’s not an accident. It’s a choice made by those in power. Tax wealth. Fund public services. Build an economy for everyone - not the 1%.

If a full-time job can’t reliably pay for housing, food, healthcare, transport, rest, and some dignity, then the problem isn’t individual effort. It’s structural. And when a structure systematically extracts labour while denying a livable life in return, "evil" isn’t hyperbole, it’s descriptive.

Egg boy! #auspol

Francesca Albanese— "Ending Israeli Apartheid will be a rehumanising act - and a liberation - for both Palestinians and Israelis. "No one can treat other humans as the Israeli society treats the Palestinians, and not lose their humanity in the process."

Why has the Murdoch regime never once reported on Israel’s infiltration in Australian politics and democracy? Because his organisation has ONE purpose being fascist propaganda. He is more dangerous to Australia’s sovereignty than any foreign terror organisation ever was 1/2 #auspol
