@Elanora_Dreamer@MikeCarlton01 I've finally caved & opened a Bluesky account - held out until now, hoping x might improve. Please follow me @Kelanoa.bsky.social and I'll follow back. The next few years are going to go from bad to worse here.
Trump came to power partly by a spineless, toe licking media that sane-washed his every utterance and treated him like a normal person - now look at him
Australia - we're in deep trouble
This is Australia's legacy media today, right down to the ABC
Sane washing a maniac

Ahead of Pauline Hanson taking the microphone at the National Press Club, Australians should know this
Journalist Margo Kingston was organised a few weeks back to ask the first Q - then was phoned yesterday and told she could no longer ask any Qs because they "had no time left"
Police have confirmed a homicide investigation after the body of a 35-year-old woman was found by the road in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, on Friday. A man known to the woman is in custody. She is the 32nd Australian woman killed this year. Last year we lost 79 women to violence - the year before 106 women were killed. Her death marks three femicides this week. A woman was murdered by her son on Monday and today a man murdered his seven-year-old daughter. Both deaths occurred in Sydney.

❤️ABOUT THE COUNT❤️
I document all Australian women & children lost to murder, manslaughter, neglect and other unlawful acts regardless of perpetrator gender or relationship to the victim. This means not all women and children killed are lost to domestic violence. They are also killed by people known to them (ie friends) or by strangers. My work includes Australians killed overseas. Every death is documented at https://t.co/DW9BTHwqhk (link in bio).
After fusing its military with Israel, the US is looking to bind American and Israeli intelligence.
That means Australia has bound its military and intelligence to Israel too.
If it’s as illegal as breaking the rules of engagement and genocide as per the Geneva convention and the ICC, it shouldn’t be too hard to repeal one day, right?
Richard Marles chief of staff has disclosed a long-term de facto relationship with a lobbyist who works for a subsidiary of an Israeli government-owned weapons manufacturer.
Richard Marles is Australia's biggest security threat. He must go.

A fantasy of freakish size, that would cost our sovereignty, is unlikely to be realised. Oh and no plan for nuke waste disposal. AUKUS is cactus. As it should be.
How the fuck do we live in a country where Antoinette Lattouf was fired merely for repeating credible peer-reviewed research but Charlie Pickering gets off scot-free for happily participating in an interview with a known neo-Nazi wife-basher?

Former Labor Foreign minister rips Albanese a new one:
“Belief US would defend Australia in event of an existential attack is a ‘ludicrous delusion’.”
Aukus is among Australia’s worst foreign policy decisions and requires ‘heroic’ optimism: Gareth Evans https://t.co/vOTiMjSw62
@MarilynRaven6@TheNoisyTrunk@lynlinking Bet they don’t realise. Drumpf was quite honest about some of things he was going to do, but they cheered & voted for him anyway. And now some of them are wondering what hit them.
Apparently they want “change” & think ON will give it to them.
Apparently criticising the fools who are pressured by the lobby is ‘antisemitic’ now.
“What Wilcox’s cartoon did so brilliantly was to highlight how astroturfing works.
“Hers was a classic political cartoon.
“In the wake of the Bondi massacre in December, Netanyahu had gone so far as to blame our Prime Minister for the killings.
“In the cartoon, he was beating the drum above the grass, the astro, where the Israel-supporting celebs, sportspeople, and politicians were clamouring for a Royal Commission.
“Below the turf, Murdoch, Segal, Howard, et al., holding up the charade.”

Prof Jeffrey Sachs, American economist and public policy analyst. Columbia University:
"AUKUS is designed to bill the Australian taxpayers and enrich the US military industrial complex. You have been had Australia, sorry to tell you. And your politicians should own up it."
One of the main problems Americans face as the Empire declines is that we are ruled by grifters and idiots. When the British Empire fell, it slowly disengaged with its more imperialist impulses. The American Empire, on the other hand, has both of its political parties ramping up the nation's militarism, and as a result is inflicting massive suffering on the global populace as it falls.
Haha, hilarious.
The con is exposed!
The whole #AUKUS scam is now stripped bare.
It has always been a con to enable the US to get its hands on more Australian territory for their US military bases.
Bases for their subs, ships, bombers, marines, drones, spy bases, weapons storage, and getting an extra flag for their forced anti-China alliance.
Australia has been conned big time — and was taken there by a pack of traitorous collaborators. You know who I mean.
#AUKUS is dead in the water — but the occupation of Australia continues.

It's easy to point at Jillian Segal and make fun of how crazy and stupid she is, but the Albanese government is the only reason her craziness and stupidity is a problem.
The thing about Segal and all these "antisemitism advisors" they're setting up in western governments is that they're just random people with strong political opinions who are being elevated to ridiculous levels of influence. They're not experts, they're just people who happen to hold the political opinion that it should be illegal to criticize the state of Israel.
Which wouldn't normally be an issue; our society is full of individuals with terrible political opinions. The problem is that our government has selected these cartoonishly ridiculous Zionists to help shape policy in immensely consequential ways that erode the civil liberties of our nation. Our leaders are the ones to blame for these inept lunatics wielding absurd levels of influence; left to their own devices they'd just be harmless idiots. They're only harmful because they're being given the power to do harm.
