“Infiltrate”? They’re in lockstep. On the very best complexion, these Marchers for Australia are useful idiots for the Nazis.

There are multiple examples in this thread of TikTok censoring videos of Minneapolis and commentary that is critical of the Trump regime. This is why Trump had it taken into the hands of his technofascist friends. Delete it!

Or how drivers who’ve maxed out their demerit points can stop their licenses from being suspended.

Excellent primer on the Atlas Network and it’s impact on Australia www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...

This is a brilliant essay. The only mystery is how Hutchens persuaded the ABC to publish it.

Not to diminish the active genocide currently underway in Palestine, but this cartoon depicts a regular occurrence in contemporary Australia. Imagine the Israelis doing ‘acknowledgements of country’ in 100 years time.

Is this supposed to be some kind of antidote to Isaac Herzog visiting in the previous month? “Canada's Carney to visit Australia in March”

The death star is real and it’s funded by the most grotesquely evil oligarchs in the universe, just like in the movies. But it’s not a spaceship that shoots lasers. It’s a think tank that spews hate-filled propaganda and buys off politicians and media outlets. It’s the Atlas Network.

Happy Arseholes Day to all those who celebrate.

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Translation: If you’re an educated working-class person capable of identifying how society is structured to extract value upward and concentrate wealth, the state increasingly treats that political awareness as a security threat—criminalizing your existence by labeling you a domestic terrorist.

This is psychotic.

This perfectly demonstrates the pernicious nature of BBC two-sidism. It almost always benefits the side with the most power. In this case that's the side which is murdering peaceful protesters in the street, on camera, and then lying about it

Mafia goon: Nice house you got here...it'd be a shame if something happened to it Media outlets: Mafia goon rules out use of force. Expresses regret at the mere thought of it

We told you they were Nazis. We told you it was fascism. We told you armed regime militias would be on the streets of multiple cities within the first 12 months. We told you there would be forced disappearances. We told you there would be public executions. But you kept both-sides’ing. You cowards

Is there anything more modern-day-Labor than Richard Marles defending Australia troops against slander without mentioning the slander was committed by Donald Trump? Surface level concern underpinned by utter cowardice and complicity.

Marles momentarily switching out of arse-kissing mode to quietly note the 47 ADF personnel who died in Afghanistan, days after Starmer demanded a public apology from the Trump regime. 3 weeks earlier: “Australia quietly sent non-refundable $1.5 billion to US for AUKUS ‘down payment’ last month”

I’m trying to recall Secretary Greg Moriarty’s finest hour. Was it signing the $45B (up from $35B) contract for 9 Hunter Class frigates (downgraded to 6 frigates for the same $45B) OR his judgement in hiring #RoboDebt’s Kathryn Campbell for $900K p/a👇? #auspol

This goes for all people everywhere. Political regimes are the variable, not the people they govern.

As of January 2026, the Australian government has paid approximately $3.1 billion to the Trump regime

Really looking forward to Taika Waititi's gritty sequel to Jojo Rabbit, where he plays Alex Karp as the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler. If anybody on here knows how to get in touch with Taika, please let him know I'm open to advising.

This image has popped up in my feed a few times now so I’m calling it out. A White fist over a colonial flag with the words ‘free Australia’? Yeah, that’s fascist iconography. It’s so obvious it doesn’t warrant explaining. It doesn’t matter what text is added to it. I’ve marked it up accordingly.

There’s always Moriarty’s Australian Submarine Agency that has a $400m budget (and sends billions more overseas to the UK and US) with 700 staff, two secret reviews into the internal mess, high turnover and excessive costs, and … checks notes … zero submarines.

In the Commonwealth under Labor and the Coalition, if you are a senior mate, you always fail upwards. Defence Secretary Moriarty has overseen procurement disasters and scandals, the AUKUS debacle and recruitment fails - so next stop Washington of course.

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

As of January 2026, the Australian government has paid approximately $3.1 billion to the Trump regime

Damned right. Teams should withdraw, and we should all boycott World Cup coverage. ✊

Poor old Bear Grylls. Imagine making a living eating elephant shit.

For as long as Australia continues to give money to this regime, irrespective of what that money is ostensibly for, Australia is complicit in the regime’s actions.

It’s too late for this kind of response.
