Forget first impressions. Whoever you are, you need to watch this. And I get it - first impressions, but You seriously need to watch ALL of this if you want insight into the Epstein/Maxwell thing. NO. Not if you want. If you have an opinion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSkz...

as we mark 18 years since Closing the Gap was launched with the National Apology to Stolen Generations and their Descendants, know that police routinely target and brutalise Aboriginal people including children and then charge them with offensive behaviour, resist arrest, and assault police.

You cannot sign bombs to slaughter Palestinian children with one hand and high five Australian children with the other you utter scumbag. #Herzog #auspol #FreePalestine

Here's me. "Why the fuck would we 'socially cohere' for monsters?"

"Social cohesion is a scam, a strategy employed by the powerful to delegitimise and suppress the voices of the less powerful... If you are othered by powerful groups, you become the victim of cohesion, not the beneficiary; what you get from social cohesion is a punch from an armed official."

We knew from the moment we heard it that “social cohesion” would be one of those Orwellian terms which would be used to cover all manner of state sanctioned abuse and deprivation of civic freedoms. It fuels the very unrest it pretends to seek to quell.

one of the few outlets to publish an accurate account of NSW police brutality. Most media seem very confused by the fact that police blocked the exits and then police attacked people with pepper spray, fists, and steel cap boots. michaelwest.com.au/this-was-pla...

Isaac Herzog, special guest of the Australian government this week, is in the Epstein files. It appears he went to the pedo rape torture island, alongside Ehud Barak, former Israeli PM, in 2014, long after Epstein’s conviction and outing as a predator.

"The future of our democracy is at stake" - Nick Hanna, the lawyer challenging Chris Minn's anti-protest laws. For that interview and a discussion about our fascistic shitshow w/ @emmashortis.bsky.social, @marquelawyers.com.au, @instanterudite.bsky.social, check out this episode. We're back.

Here's me. "It's only terrorism if they're not white"

The guy who signed bombs before they were sent off to kill Palestinians. Rewarding genocide with a state visit is sociopathic.

“To understand what’s happening in the Coalition, you have to understand Queensland,” writes @amyremeikis.bsky.social, Chief Political Analyst at The Australia Institute. Read Amy Remeikis’ full piece on The Point: https://theaus.in/4k7F9by

White racist literally threw a bomb at black people to kill them, apparently not a sufficient cause to have a moral panic, special envoy, national introspection, royal commission, terrorism declaration, new laws, 1,000 op-eds in The Australian. We're struggling to identify why that might be.

How is this not terrorism?

Whether it's illegal to say it or not (?), Israel is quite clearly committing genocide in Palestine. The Australian government (but not the Australian people) is quite clearly supporting it. And our farce of a democracy is being further eroded so people don't speak this truth.

Your HYPOCRISY is off the charts, @albomp.bsky.social. Where's your condemnation for the Israeli regime and demands for a democratic Israel that respects Palestinian human rights? AND as far as we can tell, the unrest in Iran is being orchestrated by Israel and the US. IOW, fuck off. #auspol

I am heartened by all the solidarity shown to Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah. At the same time, if all of those ABC journalists reported truthfully on the Gaza genocide from the beginning, none of this would have happened. Zionists would not have had impunity to destroy culture here.

A must read. Brilliantly written. theshot.net.au/uncategorize...

Media really pretending USrael didn't just try to murder Greta Thunberg because she's trying to feed starving kids, fuck all of you sick fucks

Israel has attacked five different countries today: Lebanon, Palestine, Syria (3 locations, including the ancient city of Palmyra), Yemen, and a boat carrying activists and food in Tunisian waters. That's a wholllllle lot of defending itself, ey??

What are Victoria Police doing by allowing Neo-Nazi Thomas Sewell to interrupt the Victorian Premier giving a media conference this morning? A Neo-Nazi forcing the Premier to abandon the press conference is unacceptable! He should already be in prison for attacking the peaceful Camp Sovereignty.

Another brilliant read. theshot.net.au/uncategorize...

Not once, but twice & Rudd kicked out an Israeli Diplomat over it, as did UK & Ireland. Gillard (lauded for some unknown reason) & Dreyfus, lobbied against it. Rudd had a spine. Albanese is a shiver looking for one. Apparently committing war crimes is cool & normal by comparison? #auspol

Scene of the most Aussie protest sign ever

I mean, I don’t know, but if you can’t protest against the deliberate starvation of an entire population of people, what is even the point of calling yourself a democracy?

As far as I can tell, the one true claim Israelis have to being "the chosen people" is that Israelis were the people chosen by the West and Europe to erase the Palestinians. Good luck proving me wrong. #GazaGenocide #FuckIsrael

Zionism no longer has influence on alp government, zionism has a seat in cabinet and decides government policy.

Here's @ronnisalt.bsky.social. 'Israel: silencing dissent everywhere'

Where's the report on islamophobia?

The way our Western politicians are tying themselves into pretzels to ignore the blatant war crimes on show daily is sickening. And yes, fuck Hamas as well.
