Heard today of 3 Australian tourists expelled from the US. Immigration at LAX demanded their phones, didn’t like what they found. Handcuffed them, held them overnight in some stinking room, escorted them onto a plane back to Oz the next day. STAY AWAY FROM THE USA.
I’m getting sick of being served this media slop.
I HAVEN’T had a gutful of Welcome to Country..
I WELCOME Welcome to Country - as I have an understanding of what it actually means - and a deep respect for the oldest living culture on the planet.
I WELCOME learning about this country’s cultural history. Over 60,000 years of it. I am happy to live in harmony with others and am not influenced by racist and divisive rhetoric dished out by daily rags that make rage, hate, division and fear their daily bread and butter.
The silent majority is NOT pale, stale and male..
The pale stale misogynistic male is in the MINORITY.. and they don’t like it. Hence this bullshyte from the pale, stale misogynistic media moguls and their mouthpieces.
Do NOT let their divisive, putrid rhetoric win.
Ever.

Architect of Robodebt. Multiple ministries conman. Shameless ally of convicted felon Trump. Arguably Australia's most brazen political grifter. That Scott Morrison will receive a King's Birthday Honour is a complete mockery of merit. A disgrace no decent person can defend #auspol
Reminder that Jacinta Price does not represent First Peoples.. she represents herself using whatever is at her disposal to advance her own agenda.. & that is her aboriginality when it’s convenient to her
Dame Jacinda Ardern is receiving an honorary degree from Oxford University — and somewhere, a dozen red-faced cookers are furiously typing about “wokeness” while the rest of the world celebrates her leadership, kindness, and global success.

I genuinely don’t understand people’s issues with welcome to country ceremonies. Like, how dried up and petty are you to begrudge an inclusive, warm invitation from our First Nations brothers and sisters? 😭
@mbarnes49021432@deniseshrivell I’d definitely agree about the regional differences. Just moved out of the city and the boomers here are much more conservative. Not me though!
Liberal voters, I dare you to walk into the medical centre and NOT reach for your Medicare card …. And calmly and proudly say “I am happy to pay full price for my consult”
