Why do you hate immigrants who pay taxes, but admire billionaires who don't.

[Peter Cronau @PeterCronau]

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.”

The difference between Gaza, Lebanon, and Auschwitz is that the world still has an opportunity to stop the genocide in Gaza and Lebanon.

We have a choice. We either become the generation that stopped two genocide in Gaza and Lebanon, or we become the generation that allowed millions of people to be killed watching it live.

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.

A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.

Hasbara is so gross because it's just Zionists throwing walls of language at you to convince you you're not seeing what you're seeing.

You see raw video footage of the most horrifying thing imaginable in Gaza, and then you see them in the replies going "This is actually fine and normal because words words words words words words words."

You see a news report about Israel doing something astonishingly evil in Lebanon, and there they are underneath it going "There's actually a lot more to the story because words words words words words words words."

You see some far right Israeli minister spouting nakedly genocidal rhetoric, and they're swarming all over it saying "Well this isn't actually what it looks like because words words words words words words words."

You see every major human rights group on earth saying Israel is guilty of genocide and apartheid, and they're running around frantically telling you it's a giant conspiracy to frame Israel and the truth is that words words words words words words words.

You see more and more mainstream news institutions reporting on the mountains of evidence of widespread rape and torture in Israeli prisons, and they saturate the airwaves claiming it's an antisemitic blood libel because words words words words words words words.

The idea is to just pound your intellect with a firehose of verbiage until your inner sensemaker has been shredded and you're too confused to form a coherent picture of what's actually going on. It's a disgusting, abusive, and profoundly unethical thing to do to people.

But the good news is it's not working anymore. Language is immensely powerful, but its power has its limits. Israel's behavior has become so transparently unacceptable that no amount of word magic can manipulate people into seeing anything other than what's happening in front of their face.

A FIFA referee has spent more time in federal custody for being Somali than anybody on epstein's list who raped kids.

@DJH188704373 Thank you for that. The NACC seems to just be a huge, shiny shopfront to placate the Australian public

The problem is, inside everyone's been having a lovely time avoiding doing what the Australian public expected of them

[Ronni🧂Salt-WhoWroteGunnawahYeahThatOne @RonniSalt]

@josiegirl62 @Judith54Nunn The travel expenses for the Commissioner and another NACC person from Dec 11 through to Dec 21 in Qatar.

Return airfares from Aust to Dubai at $11,000 and $14,300 respectively.

How? And why?

Meanwhile - one conviction, zero public hearings.

Israel is the world’s greatest killer and I can’t find a single Western headline about it.

[MFWitches @MFWitches]

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?

#NewsCorpse

[Ronni🧂Salt-WhoWroteGunnawahYeahThatOne @RonniSalt]

The NACC clearly lists the Commissioner's office as based in Canberra

The Remuneration Tribunal (Official Travel) Determination 2024, does not allow for travel expenses to be paid for public servants/staffers from their home to their principal office

Paul Brereton lives in Sydney and yet via the NACC, Australians have funded his commute from his Sydney home to his primary office in Canberra, in breach of the Official Travel determination

Why?

Is this a judicious use of taxpayer's money?

Pauline Hanson has been a senator for long enough to have accumulated a generous parliamentary salary, superannuation, and the benefits of public office, while positioning herself as the voice of forgotten Australians she claims to represent. The contradiction is telling. She speaks the language of the battler while operating comfortably within the very political establishment she rails against. That is not representation, it is performance.
⠀
Her policy priorities do not reflect the daily concerns of most Australians. The things keeping people up at night in 2026 are mortgage stress, rental affordability, healthcare costs, and energy bills. Hanson's agenda, centred on immigration restriction, culture war grievances, and conspiracy-adjacent positions on vaccines and climate, speaks to a segment of the electorate but not the mainstream. Most Australians want practical solutions, not political theatre.
⠀
There is also the matter of delivery. After decades in politics Hanson has not delivered meaningful reform on any of the issues she claims to care about. She has collected a wage, raised her profile, and kept her base engaged, but the structural problems she gestures at remain unresolved. If she genuinely understood the lives of ordinary Australians, she would know that what they need is results, not rallies.

Chill.

Unless you’re a fan whose visa was denied, losing your life savings.

A referee whose participation was withdrawn after a lifetime of work.

A player who couldn’t focus without certainty as to if, or when, you were going to be allowed to play in the biggest moment of your young life, and most precious memory as you will age.

A country that had to change venues because you’re being bombed by the hosts.

A staff member denied a World Cup after years of dedication in qualifying.

A spectator who sold your house to pay for exorbitant tickets.

Aside from that, relax.

Update: Chris Sidoti has again spoken out & called on federal authorities to investigate Australians who have served in the IDF since October 2023 for potential “war crimes” and “genocide.”
“The full force of Australian law should be applied”💥 #auspol

[Peter Cronau @PeterCronau]

It’s time for the Federal Police to investigate Australians who are returned Israeli Defense Force soldiers.

“Any Australian who has committed war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide must be held to account and face justice.

“The international rules-based order must be respected and upheld, and the Australian Government must honour its obligations to bring accountability for perpetrators of these grave crimes.

“The impunity must come to an end.”

@Dazzaat I’ve never seen Pauline Hanson defend women but I have seen her defend convicted rapists.
