Just published an article on Medium around JK Rowling and the Transgender Community.

My thoughts as a response to JK Rowling's blog justification of her beliefs around transgender women. https://t.co/aA8qihyt39

This is not Gaza.

This is Lebanon.

THIS IS GENOCIDE!

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul: Our support for Israel and Ukraine was one of the main reasons behind Germany’s failure to secure a seat on the UN Security Council.

I had 20 patients in my Pediatric War Injuries Clinic today, for follow-up care.

Of the 20 children, Israel had killed one or both parents of 19 of them.

[Paul Bongiorno @PaulBongiorno]

My thoughts exactly. The silent complicity of so many democratic world leaders is a dreadful cover for cruel totalitarianism in the US and the Middle East for starters.

Our government is supplying Israel with white phosphorus bombs that melt human flesh to the bone. These bombs are targeting civilians, schools, hospitals, and places of worship. The U.S. must end its complicity in these war crimes, and pass the Lebanon War Powers Resolution.

Retweet if you believe Netanyahu is a war criminal.

HORRIFIC: Israeli settlers attacked the village of Baytin in the West Bank, setting tens of olive trees on fire.

The Israeli army is blocking fire trucks from reaching the site.

@Mon4Kooyong Australia needs its own government-funded drug manufacturing facility, given the lessons from Trump and COVID.

My POV is that any pharma co that withdraws drugs from the Australian market loses patent protection for Australian manufacturing.

WATCH: Israeli jets drop American

Everyone in government must be punished.

@AngryNana4 @BonesIITaz @SenatorWong Their boss, the PM of Israel, informed them that he would look after any inquiry.

[AngryNana #Difficult#TeamBear @AngryNana4]

@SenatorWong When 13 Australian women were subjected to invasive internal searches in Doh Airport in 2020 , you demanded action by the Australian government to identify those responsible for the incident.

Now, an internal israeli investigation is sufficient?

Shifting standards

Wondering if second hand US subs under AUKUS will be top notch products? Maybe let history be your guide and google “seasprite helicopter Australia cost” followed by “HMAS Kanimbla Australia cost” - then let me know your thoughts.

This is a lie. You cannot by law (Gender Recognition Act 2004) ask someone what sex they are.

Baroness Falkner once again demonstrating her blind bigotry and hatred of people who are born trans. @RidgeandFrost

8 billion people in the world, yet no one hears their screams.

No one even speaks of our genocide in Gaza.

[Bridie (EBK) @EmergencyBK]

Oh I see, Wong acknowledges Australian women were sexually assaulted and abused by Israeli soldiers but we're letting Israel investigate it. Fuuuuuck!!

We broke significant national news this week and not a single mainstream media outlet wanted to cover it or follow up.

It isn't surprising, but it is illustrative.

Put simply, they're all owned and operated by Zionist billionaires.

This is why indie media needs to exist.

[John H aka Corvus coronoides @knarfnamduh]

Maybe it's time to deal more appropriately with a rogue nation @SenatorWong ?
It's not actually "very complex" at all! Especially genocide, murder of an Australian citizen, abuse of Australian citizens, destruction of war graves, false flags & lies!
ACT!

I am absolutely fed up with the relentless targeting of Grace Tame.

Let's be clear. There is a difference between fair criticism and a public pile-on. What we keep seeing directed at Grace is not constructive debate. It is constant scrutiny, personal attacks, outrage cycles and a level of judgment that seems reserved for women who dare to speak too loudly, too honestly or too unapologetically.

Grace Tame survived child sexual abuse. She helped change laws. She gave a voice to countless survivors. She has spent years doing work that most people would never have the courage to do.

Yet the attacks never seem to stop.

A few weeks ago it was the Prime Minister taking aim at her. Now it's Charlie Pickering. Before that, countless commentators, columnists and social media critics. Different names, same pattern.

And frankly, it disgusts me.

No, women in public life should not be immune from criticism. Nobody is. But there is a world of difference between criticism and the kind of sustained public hounding that seeks to diminish, discredit and exhaust someone.

As someone who has experienced public judgment and media attacks, I know how destructive these campaigns can be. They reduce human beings to caricatures. They erase context. They encourage outrage while ignoring the very real emotional toll on the person at the centre of it.

What troubles me most is that women who survive violence are so often expected to be perfect. The moment they become angry, outspoken, political, imperfect or inconvenient, they are treated as fair game.

Grace Tame has contributed more to the conversation about sexual abuse and survivor advocacy in this country than most of her critics ever will.

Maybe it's time some of the men lining up to take shots at her stopped and asked themselves a simple question:

Why are they spending so much energy attacking a survivor instead of supporting the change she helped create?

Enough. #gracetame #charliepickering

Hard-hitting address from Sydney University Staff for Palestine member Jason Todd on the 5A network's persecution of Palestine advocates on campus. At USyd alone, they have made hundreds of complaints against us.

[Solo Monk @JJKALE2]

Shoebridge:

"Why did you not declare your conflict of interest forms?"

Jillian Segal:

"Well, um, um, I, I, because I dont believe they're called 'conflict of interest forms'."

Shoebridge:

"Did you support the refusal in having this disclosed?"

Segal: "Yes"
