    A succinct crie de cour from David Shoebridge, stripping the political bs to the real issue: How the major and worsening problems facing us are caused by the machinations of the wealthiest 1%. And how they are gaslighting us into blaming migrants or trans people or ‘woke’. If only One Nation voters could read this!

    It&amp;#39;s a great day for Australian Jewry with Steven Lowy and Labor&amp;#39;s Josh Burns appearing at the Royal Commission into Antisemitism and &amp;quot;Social Cohesion&amp;quot;, bringing prominent coverage from the ABC to The Australian. Both men describe a litany of attacks, Lowy harking back to the brutal murder of his grandfather by Nazis at Auschwitz. Strangely, neither has mentioned Israel&amp;#39;s own ongoing holoucaust against Palestinians or their own full-throated support of i...

    As China brings in new ‘Ethnic Unity Laws’ I’m sure Pauline is cheering on. Yes? #auspol

    Pauline’s ‘monoculture’ semantic about the Socceroos is laughable given that she would have barred entry to the country for half the team if she could. And if she got into power the hater-morons she marches with would demand they were deported. #auspol #onenation #socceroos

    Driving into Athens. In Greece I found there were always clouds but they were always somewhere else. But the foreground of the motorway and the distant city makes this picture IMO. Locking in the 16:9 frame ratio on the iPhone comes in handy for shots like this. #travel #photography #Greece

    Is Liberal Senator Sarah Henderson our most stupid politician? Fresh from falsely accusing SBS of stacking the Eurovision vote against Israel, she now admits to making false calls to 000 during today’s Telstra outage to ‘test it’. But no. Today Barnaby Rubble has suggested the outage was caused by China’s ballistic missile which landed 1,000 kms north of the Solomon Islands. Is he a lunatic?? #auspol #onenation #Telstra

    Grrr. Antisemitism Envoy and Advance donor Jillian Segal is trying to gaslight the Royal Commission by accusing the ABC and SBS of bias against Israel. Her example was the ABC quoting a UN spokesman who said 40,000 children had been killed in Gaza. Turned out this figure was wrong and the ABC corrected it. The generally agreed figure is ‘only’ 20,000 children killed. 20,000. But as Israel keeps journalists out of Gaza while regularly killing those in the strip, hard numbers are hard to come by....

    One Nation&amp;#39;s resounding win in Farrer is a clear marker of the accelerating collapse of civilisation and the planet. It&amp;#39;s a victory for racism, xenophobia, climate denial, gun culture and outright delusion. Its people are proud enough of these primitive vices to gleefully vote against their own interests. They tout the win as a victory for democracy, yet their polity is one of exclusion and oppression. They apparently adore Trump even as his narcissistic ideology destroys global...

    OMG I just heard the very average singer/songwriter Deborah Conway whingeing to the Royal Commission that she had lost gigs because she was Jewish. I for one didn&amp;#39;t even know she was Jewish until I heard her interviewed on Radio National, reciting the Israeli/Hasbara justifications for the genocide. I was swearing and throwing cushions at the radio especially when she was asked: &amp;quot;But what about all the children who have been killed?&amp;quot; She replied: &amp;quot;If you call a...

    Apparently the cross-eyed One Nation cooker Senator Malcolm Roberts refused to rule out that the Bondi massacre was a false flag operation. His views on climate are similarly cooked. They walk among us! #auspol #onenation

    Apparently Angus Taylor will focus on bracket creep in his budget reply tonight. This is slightly bemusing because that happens only when wages rise. But the LNP when in power suppressed wages as part of their economic strategy, as admitted by Mathias Cormann before he departed for greener pastures as director-general of the OECD. That&amp;#39;s one way of dealing with bracket creep! #auspol #angustaylor #budget

    Interesting hearing Angus Taylor propose that permanent residents are welcome to work here and pay tax, inc. the Medicare levy but receive no benefits. He just burned all the migrant vote.

    “When the patriots are back in control” Australia will become richer and unified ‘like never before’, said Matt Canavan at an anti-immigration rally today, wooing One Nation voters and channelling Trump. No effing way, Matt. Your faux patriots are morons and if you think America is more ‘unified’ under their ‘patriots’ you are a moron too. #auspol #immigration #onenation

    Just be absolutely clear, Albo’s rejection of the gas tax reveals who runs this country and controls our politicians: Big Fossil companies who are destroying the planet’s survivable climate while keeping our government too poor to look after its citizens.

    The white supremacists loudly booing welcome to country at ANZAC Day dawn services today are traitors wearing Australian flags. I&amp;#39;m no fan of the day because of its jingoistic, nationalist overtones but recognise that it honours soldiers who risked or gave their lives fighting against racist, fascist dictators to defend democracy. The ignorant haters polluting this solemn and sacred commemoration with their toxic ignorance are precisely what we fought against. They bring great shame on...
