🚨: In 1900, 1 in 4 American children died before age 5. Today, only 1 in 250 die. Modern medicine did that — largely thanks to vaccines.

Fascinating seeing all the "anti-establishment" One Nation fruit loops who apparently want to "tear down the system" suddenly fighting to keep the same decades-old system and status quo in place that forces taxpayers to give handouts to wealthy investors. 🤔 #auspol

@MFWitches In the UK a display of art by Palestinian children was removed from a hospital after a group of lawyers complained it would upset the Jewish parents and children. The display had been there for a long time and the hospital said no patient or parent had made any complaints at all

@MFWitches Oh suffer another chant of "From the River to the Sea". It must be more painful that watching your family incinerated alive by IDF bombs. Really?

How the fuck do we live in a country where Pauline Hanson has successfully convinced people to hate immigrants, feminism and climate action instead of fascism, media magnates and billionaires?

How the fuck do we live in a place where people at the anti-Semitism RC are today claiming they’re “suffering” from being forced to look at a Palestinian flag or hear someone say “Free Palestine” while actual kids in Palestine are being buried alive or shot in the head by the IDF?

The rain added an insane amount of Aura to this whole performance.
The crew wanted to cancel the show to save the audio equipment worth thousands. But the lead singer refused and put on one of the greatest performances for a song of all time and this video will go down in history hundreds of years from now!

@lesstenny Proud to be a bloody lefty. If we want the chaos of Trumpland, vote with One Notion or other r/w nutcases.

Time the ABC and other media took notice and enquired into David Farley' s background. Turns out to be very interesting. Eg Ex CEO of Australian Agricultural Company - the company involved in $80m invisible water deal? https://t.co/IueXeK36uc

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.

Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”

The saddest advisory: after at least 100 Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon, advice should you come across a parentless child. It says stay calm and reassure them, take them to the nearest rescue centre, call the authorities
