Attitudes are NOT changing!

Documentary on TV just had the tagline ..

“WILL WE EVER CONQUER THE ARCTIC?”

Seems the mentality is to destroy everything

Here is Jamal from Gaza whose family lost everything and he is trying with all his might to rebuild their lives and help them with the crazy costs in Gaza and travel outside Gaza when the crossings open. I hope you support us. Your little support, even if it is $5

I had the pleasure of interviewing prominent Chinese academic Zhang Weiwei, a brilliant political theorist.

He discussed how China’s political system, and socialist market economy actually work; and how China sees democracy, the USA, and Trump’s trade war.

She's a treasure in a time of journalistic mediocrity.

albanese knows the duopoly is ending and the puppet government with it. He had a choice to do a Whitlam, and probably be sacked like Whitlam, and go out with some dignity. But he's lying with the CIA/UK snakes.

Massive crowd in Melbourne/Naarm today (in case you thought this movement was going to be placated with more colonisation). Until the occupation ends. Until Western war criminals and their enablers face justice. Until Palestine is free.

The Albanese govt’s first term was the second most secretive on record.

Rather than changing their ways, they’re doubling down and tightening our FOI system to make it even harder to get information. Not a single expert or member of parliament outside of the Labor party has backed their new bill.

Folks gotta figure out what actually hurts the oligarchs. Many people don't understand how unimportant money is to oligarchs compared to power. Musk never cared about losing tons of money on Twitter because the power gained in destroying community and communication was much more valuable.

Shame and harm at every JobSeeker turn – and now added AI slop

The system is so convoluted and stacked against people that even if it worked as intended, it would still be not just harmful, but useless.
