Will pro Israel lobby groups pay for this? Will Ita Buttrose pay for this? No, we will pay for this. The already stretched ABC budget will fund less local content this year due to political interference and terrible management. #OurABC #AusPol

Justice Rangiah in his own words in Lattouf v ABC penalty decision. The broadcaster has been ordered to pay $150,000. I was previously awarded $70,000 for hurt and distress. ABC has spent in excess of $2 million on legal fees. The real cost to Aunty is immeasurable.

Why the fuck are our ABC regularly inviting and platforming foreign ambassadors and military officials like Huckabee and IDF spokespeople. Unlike American ABC ours isn't privately owned it's owned by us, the taxpayers of Australia. Stop platforming christo-nationalists and genocidal bigots.

They were on the way before Trump’s presidency, the fact that he was able to run as a candidate, rather than being locked up for insurrection, was enough to show that the system was fucked already

Nobody Left Behind Albo is starting to rhyme pretty well with Honest Johnny

Sometimes media and politics circles people question my hatred for live blogs, but this is a prime example of the harm they cause The ABC uncritically ran a claim that a study suggested Panadol causes autism, one Google search would have told them the author of the study says it isn’t true

think that realistically I would have always been deeply, deeply worried about the rise of far-right ideas in public discourse but I truly never expected this level of blithe elite complacency, turns out I do feel worried but mostly I feel like I'm going insane, watching them do.......nothing at all

Anthony only looks like a centrist in comparison to the Lib hate/vomit machine. He's a senselessly cautious right wing opportunist who is granted the tolerance of 'weakness'. He is not a weak implementer of ineffectual policies, he *is* those policies.

Some good news. Belated and so much more to do. But good news www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

I am <this close> to being unabolitionist when it comes to overpaid executives whose decisions kill vulnerable people. Then I remember poverty and centrelink are punishing and punishment by design and figure welp asset forfeiture, lifetime bans, and the centrelink queue until we fix income support.

Instead of charging my car at home from my own solar array for almost free, I'll go to a petrol station to fill up at 100 times the cost so that the petrol can be converted back to electricity to power my car. said no one #ev

Jail the mongrels. Each and every one of them.

Democrats, UK Labour and the ALP love nothing more than inheriting a fascistic state apparatus they can maintain and quietly expand to hand back over to the increasingly insane right.

I’d argue the USA is already the over. A handful of men own most of the wealth and they’re mostly propping up AI with it. They’re all in, gambling on a future where AI will replace human labour, telling themselves comforting stories like they’ll give us UBI in the end.

Middle class welfare increases.

People can save up to $4,300 a year per household. But not everyone can benefit, especially the over 3 million Australians living in poverty due to @australianlabor.bsky.social #Auspol

The solar/battery policy is much worse than merely excluding the renters and the less well off from the benefits. They are actually paying for them. A transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich. Terrible public policy. #auspol

Never underestimate how much of a shock it was for many "elite" journalists to find out they were not worshipped by their audience.

The fact that they’re one election away from authoritarian fascism suggests it isn’t even a problem with who is president anyway. Trump is accelerating, but clearly the core of gov systems is corrupt

As one of the richest nations on earth, our govt is happy to splash $368 BIL on subs and an alliance with an untrustworthy and vengeful partner. But can't can't be arsed when it comes to vulnerable people living in poverty. Our priorities are completely wrong. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Zarah Sultana has brought a motion calling for Landlords to be banned from being MP's. It's commonsense isn't it.

Yep, how sad to lose the #ABC. And, to add insult to injury, on the ALP's watch.

Your regular reminder that this doesn’t matter one iota in terms of the big picture and has no impact on policy beyond what Labor allows. It. Does. Not. Matter. What. The. Liberals. Do. On. Net. Zero. www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/polit...

Deeply disturbed by the apparently normalised class of person that hasn't said anything about 680,000 murdered Palestinians but is very upset about one Nazi podcast host.

Not chasing Robodebt guilty showed Labor is just the same as the other corporate party.

Bloke looks like an American.

The primary aim must be getting the govt off X. This offers the possibility of a cascade effect taking journalists etc off it. We need to seperate the national debate from the extremism engine.

They've surely got to pull the pin on the World Cup and Olympics being held in the US. It's not safe for athletes and staff.

All of this could be fixed with the stroke of a ministerial pen. A fairer system for those who have been punished too much is easier to do than the current, despicable system. But punishing the poor is the system of government we have chosen.

There’s gonna be trolls, bots, fuckheads, whatever you want to call them, getting on Bluesky now just to cause trouble. Don’t fall for their shit. Don’t engage, just ignore and block.

I'm increasingly convinced the only thing that will destroy MAGA is MAGA. After Trump departs, they will eat each other. It's already happening. The lies, hate, violence, ego, and vanity and inner fighting. Dem leadership won't step up. Corporate America is complicit. Institutions are corrupt.

Labor’s ideology is now mirroring LNP ideology on big issues. Neoliberal/neoconservative/neofeudal model. Predatory capitalism now moved to warlord capitalism by Albanese and Marles. Unmistakably. Their talk of being a worker’s party now mirroring the TrUMP deception. @albomp.bsky.social

Labor have been owned for near 50 years, why would you assume that Albanese is weak & pathetic when he is the leader of the party which introduced Australia to Neoliberalism in 1983, that he grew up in? This #Rustedon myth of Labor being "basically good, but weak" needs to be laid to rest #auspol

Albanese has perfected the art of playing Dead Centre politics. But after 6 years of him, people are onto his deception. Albo’s actions do not match his words and place him into the extreme right camp. #NACC, fossil fuel, AUKUS, Israel Regime/Trump US capture tell different story of intentions.

I am stuck in this habit of checking the abc for news But more and more, it’s just fluff … actual news is demoted and preference given to sub sections like ‘learn some thing new… is the pink mould in my shower going to hunt me down while I sleep’ ( exaggerating but probs a better headline)

Successive governments have totally broken the system and all the public services have huge gaping wounds especially in housing, health, child care, aged care, NDIS and public transport, immigration, etc. The government's solution to these massive problems is a band-aid, an inquiry or a scapegoat.

Who is really killing people in the USA? Oh look it is the Right Wing. What a surprise... not.

Resigns??? Amazed he wasn't promoted. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

It was set up to be knackered. Set up to fulfill an election promise but deliberately hobbled in its establishment to prevent it from being a serious anti-corruption body. Most of these public oversight bodies seem to be vehicles to keep the conga line of privileged noses in the public trough.

Watching the western world tie itself into knots trying to de-feeling itself into some pro-capitalist robotic mould has really fucked us all

The US is way beyond the tipping point that some are claiming this to be.

nobody said she should be rewarded. The fact is she has been punished - by the party - while white males like Abbot and Morrison and Dutton were rewarded - by the party - for anti-immigration rhetoric.

i hope hyundai go to canada or australia

massive subsidies thsat we dont need to pay for oil companies ? or some extra revenue from gas and the rich or wealth taxes for example?

young man, you have killed all your sperms, I said young man, you don’t need to fear germs, I said young man, give your brain some more worms, you can eat 👏 that 👏 whale 👏 you scavenged

These humans are standing in front of a barrier that is in front of a Banksy piece that depicts a judge beating a protester with a gavel. These humans are being paid to stand there and make sure no one can see some graffiti. I wonder how these humans feel about standing there?

Silicon Valley threw all their money at AI, and they’ve invested so much time and research into it, propping the tech up, and it’s not living up to their standards. America’s economy is based on this bubble not bursting. I think it will.

Every single fvckwit shown in that footage who attacked Camp Sovereignty should be identified and shamed widely. They should not be able to operate in society. #SundayShot
