Hannah Thomas required surgery after police allegedly struck her at a pro-Palestine protest. She was charged with three offences. She's "sickened" to see the force approve a neo-Nazi rally on the steps of parliament, arguing it exposes "a clear double standard". www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Latest update: Richo is currently being refused admission to hell, lest he do the numbers against the devil’s infernal reign

You have to wonder how many people are disappeared. BTW, they're still looking for parents for some of the kids Trump removed from their parents last time.

Until today, it had never occurred to me to wonder WHAT they were inside of.

Eurgh! Matt Canavan is on Insiders?? 🤢🤢🤢 #Insiders #AusPol #CoalFace

The Qld govt has quietly appointed a series of people with LNP connections to state boards without public announcements in the year since it took office, including at least 10 party figures whose appointments have not yet been reported. (w Julius Dennis) www.brisbanetimes.com.au/politics/que...

How is everyone not sharing this?😍

#auspol I’m arguing with a friend who asserts that there is a “crisis of confidence in Western civilisation often borne of a kind of guilt at its economic and military dominance over the world.” I think this is a RW trope with no evidence. Thoughts?

There are some wild judicial fits in the old Commonwealth. Most of our "Australian" ones have been retired but it's cold in Ottawa. Needs the full wigs "Big Bottom Judges Make The Rockin' World Go Round"

Love to live in a country where 'I'm quitting shadow cabinet to spend more time with my racism" is a clear first step towards party leadership and more puff pieces

Call me a cynic but I think it's more not knowing where exactly on the public Australian racist continuum he will hang his hat.

The ‘dress rehearsal for voter suppression at the next election’ theory holding water here.

One for the “who could have seen this coming “ crowd

Curious admission that being “a conservative, a right-winger” and not-a-racist is a bit unusual………

On FB a friend reposted @realcarrickryan.bsky.social discussing whether #Trump is a #fascist. A RWNJ has responded quoting the (more general) Macquarie Dictionary definition of Fascism as "proof" that the other definition is "embellished to suit the narrative". 🤦‍♀️

Google aiding Israel in putting activists lives in danger with this propaganda, justifying attacks on the flotilla.

Simplest test as to how much this is anything more than an opportunistic swipe at the left is to ask Josh to show us the article he wrote when Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered

1427 SR Will Whitfoot resigns; Samwise is elected Mayor of the Shire.

The article in The Age about Thomas Sewell and the NSN is interesting but the extent it quotes Sewell is ridiculous. It relies on @whiterosesociety.bsky.social for its research then ignores their number one rule: don’t platform the words of Nazis.

The Right are determined to wipe out every good thing that's happened in the last 40 years.

We are posting this statement on behalf of Nathan Bull's family, who reached out to us after receiving abuse and harassment.

Aaaand the Albanese Government has approved its first fossil fuel expansion of the new term. We're all (legitimately) focussed on genocide, while governments like ours are actively pursuing a policy of omnicide. How nice to have a stinking parliamentary majority and use it for ecocide.

If you have managed to ascribe 'legitimate concerns' to people who will march with nazis and think we have too many Indians nowadays, but offered no such extension to people seeking a little less genocide, congratulations you are officially a fucking disgrace

Truly wild the special envoy against antisemitism still has made zero statements about all the Nazis violently running around the streets across the country yesterday.

#auspol Monday fun: asking the folk who were warned about the Nazi rally, who still went to the Nazi rally, and listened to the Nazi speakers, to explain why they are not Nazis.

#auspol I've been "informed" twice in a fortnight that if we don't debate the far right, we will push people towards the far right. This just seems like paradox of tolerance stuff to me. Thoughts?

Friends, I have been elected as a Delegate to the Branch Council of the CPSU (Community and Public Sector Union) SPSF Group New South Wales Branch. Many thanks to my friends who voted for me, asked their friends to vote for me, prayed for me, sent me good wishes, and gave advice.

I'm on another ballot!

93 people killed in Gaza trying to access food, as UNRWA warns that Israeli authorities are "starving civilians" - including 1 million children. The Aus Government must take every action to pressure Netanyahu to stop. Other countries are stepping up action, and we must too.

Good to see governments, journos and large firms still committed to the site that says "our user base turned our AI into Hitler."

This Labor government is complicit in genocide and occupation as long as it supplies weapons to Israel. End the two-way arms trade now.

How embarrassment.

I'm not saying stacking The Age newsroom with ex The Australian and Herald Sun reporters appears deeply ill-advised but I guess I am saying exactly that
