This is why I've quit legacy media and I doubt I'll be back. Muslims attacked by cops in the streets for PRAYING is the expected outcome of the racist reporting and discourse around the Gaza genocide. Every Palestinian silenced and every Zionist lie amplified helped pave the path we're on.

“It’s an entire nation.” That’s how collective punishment is rationalised. The ICJ took note. So should Australia. No red carpet. Accountability.

hard to overstate how typical it is to open the newsfeed or switch on the radio or TV/ABC and hear white males who were not there talking to white males who were not there dominating the discourse. This is completely routine in my personal 56 years lifetime experience in Australia.

Watching the footage emerging of the police brutality from Sydney last night is truly sickening. People have a right to peacefully protest. And shame on the media for framing this as 'protesters clashed with police' when from the footage it was clear that 'peaceful protesters were bashed by police'

"[D]o you fundamentally achieve public safety by trying to repress protests, by trying to prevent street processions, by creating a legal regime where there’s no independent arbiter or are in fact those things potentially quite dangerous to community safety?" Good questions.

It's pretty neat how just *checks notes* 'three months ago' NSW Police gave a Nazi protest demanding 'Abolish the Jewish Lobby' the green light, while a protest against the visit of a foreign President -- guilty, according to a UN Independent Commission, of inciting genocide -- is verboten.
