There's a problem. The shooters were Wahhabist/Salafists (desert cult fanatics with Saudi oil $) who carried out a targeted attack on an event known to be well attended by supporters/members of Chabad, an actively genocidal cult. That's basic info, or ought to be. After that, it gets worse. #auspol

So Lanyon and Minns have cancelled Sydney's multi-million dollar New Year's Eve, then? "The New South Wales police commissioner, Mal Lanyon, has restricted public assemblies in Sydney for 14 days, under new powers that passed NSW parliament on Wednesday." www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

And yet we turn to our own predators for help all the time. Hospital corporations, massive grocery chains, oil companies, etc.

"As a rule, coverups are difficult in free societies. They are routine for authoritarian governments. The Epstein coverup will be an indicator of how far we are down the road to authoritarianism. The success of a coverup would take us much further down that road." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

MSM reporting 'over a million more Epstein files have been found'. In what sense has the DOJ 'found' them? Haven't the files been in their possession since they were originally identified or taken from his many dwellings?

Over at X, Elon has added a feature that allows you to edit any image anyone has posts using AI I edited an image of a real scientific paper (left) with the prompt "change the title and images to be more fear-inducing" I can envision no ways in which this may be abused. None at all. 🧪

Merry Christmas. Happy Birthday (OberonsGhost). Bah Humbug. Happy Saturnalia. Happy Hanukkah. Merry Yule. Happy Kwanzaa. Angry Festivus. What ever you celebrate, may it be glorious and joyful filled with lots of food and love.

Great news and well done Nasser and APAN! Minns has, of course, got his political PR boost, whether his laws stand or not.

Looking forward to South Park taking the piss out of the 'Trump class' battleship brainfart by using an image as ludicrous as this bsky.app/profile/will...

First they came for the romance writers ...

Everyone who protests Herzog's visit to #bondi in 2026 - at the invitation of Zionists and Anthony Albanese - should hold a copy of this image. #auspol

You might be familiar with Umberto Eco's list of common traits of fascism. Today I want to talk about number 8, "The enemy is both strong and weak," and how it's also one of the core tenets of even the most mainstream right-wing politics 🧵

Don't ppl in custody have bed coverings that can't be used to hang themselves? Aren't sheets/blankets really flimsy so they can't be torn in strips or bear any weight? If so, then how was JE "found on the floor of his cell with a strip of bedsheet around his neck"? www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...

All the branding that Trump has done throughout his adult life, from real estate to Bibles, “is all in service to filling a black hole that is unfillable ...bc he is just a terrified little boy who cannot face the truth about himself [that he is not loved].” www.thedailybeast.com/the-real-rea...

Once this is done Albanese can start on reducing the grotesque amounts handed out of the public purse to ex-politicians in the way of office, flight and other expenses they're allowed to claim.

I find it sooooooooooo weird people are upset "Albo" was booed, and not that his government is eroding our democratic rights to appease the extremist genocidaires that booed him. Big picture. Focus on our democracy and rights, not the pride/image of an individual politician.

Joanne Young - the UK's Gisele Pelicot - was drugged and assaulted by her former husband and five strangers and has chosen to waive her right to anonimity. www.stuff.co.nz/world-news/3...

11 yrs ago Brandis said the quiet part out loud by declaring 'people have a right to be bigots' as Abbott, Turnbull, and Morrison contributed their parts to hoWARd's template of advancing fascism as the governing principle in Australia. www.abc.net.au/news/2014-03...

Ley's vilification of Penny Wong has the homophobic and misogynist subtext that, as a butch lesbian dyke, Wong is incapable of the supposed feminine trait of 'being emotional' and is unwilling to perform public sadness by allowing salty water to leak from her eyes.

The solution, here, if Minns succeeds, is to popularise 'gti'.

Important that Israeli Jewish-supremacists were one of the key factors in the founding of NatCon (“Christian” Nationalism’s faux-intellectual movement). www.influencewatch.org/non-profit/e... In #Auspol, AJA’s founder was also pivotal to toxic disinformation outfit, Advance. So was Abbott.

Once you realize that the AI business plan is how do the world's most mediocre people torch the value of expertise what they're investing makes sense AI has been discussed as a gold rush. It's actually a cotton gin.

“Flock's ambitions go far beyond license-plate surveillance,” EFF’s @cooperq.com told @404Media.co. “Flock's goal isn't to catch stolen cars, their goal is to have total surveillance of everyone all the time." www.404media.co/flock-expos...

Good post on this idea here!

this is terrible framing, tipping has nothing to do with generosity and everything to do with exploitation, poor labour laws, and privilege. it is anti-worker and anti-egalitarian. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-12...

Stuff NZ reporting: "Police found a video that was taken of the men (Naveed and Sajid Akram) in October 2025 on the accused’s mobile phone showing both alleged gunmen in black t-shirts sitting in front of an image of an IS flag, the facts say. 1/3

What do governments mean by 'social cohesion'? It may not be what you think. It may be that the meaning for governments is 'people not complaining, protesting or even noticing that members of the community are being ignored, mistreated or even murdered by the system keeping us in power'. #auspol

This is REALLY important! This should not be allowed to continue - people deserve so much better. Also, Sean Wright is an exemplary human being and most excellent disability advocate www.change.org/p/stop-compu...

I'm amazed how many people don't seem to know when to use 'infer' and 'imply'. To imply means to suggest something is true without actually saying it: she implied he was lazy To infer means to gain an understanding of something by reasoning or evidence: his kitchen sink full of dirty dishes

None of the invasions in the West Bank are 'settlements'. Shame on the SMH for being a Zionist mouthpiece.

They are not 'settlements'. They are invaders stealing Palestinian land.

Albo blamefest should now be derailed (probably won't be) - due to revelations Bondi Shooter bought 3 shotguns, from same gun store, but raised no red flag. @michaelpascoe01.bsky.social #auspol michaelwest.com.au/bondi-traged...

The AJA is responsible for the booing of Albanese at #bondi.

I see a screenshot from the Australian Jewish Association doing the rounds. It’s worth remembering that the AJA is a bunch of fringe far-right cranks. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austral...

Thanks for following me back, @fahad-s-ali.bsky.social 😀

For those asking why it would be that people would have reacted to the Prime Minister's appearance at #bondi by booing him bsky.app/profile/ally...

Minns is taking advantage of people's ignorance to push a right wing agenda. He expects most people hear 'globalise the intifada' and assume it's 'a muslim' saying and therefore a rallying cry 'for terrorists'. It's the opposite. It's a call to shake free from colonial oppression. #auspol

The absurdity is staggering. A foreign state, backed by powerful lobby groups, attempting to dictate what Australians can say, teach, write, or protest about. All while that same state continues to kill civilians with impunity. substack.com/@lizlohtaylo...
