They keep telling us how much they hate women and expect the worst of "humankind' of them.

Can journalists stop labelling politicians like Hastie, Joyce, Canavan, and Antic as "conservative".

They are the opposite:
radical right misogynist ideologues following American christo-fascist campaigning to strip women [and anyone else who isn't a straight white man] of their rights. #auspol

New Australia Institute polling shows most Australians, regardless of who they vote for, think cash-for access payments represent corrupt conduct.

“Politicians could improve public faith in democracy by ruling out taking money in a way that most view as corrupt.’

Australia is one of the sunniest places on earth.

Cover every car park with solar panels. Provide shade and cool the cars at the same time as producing electricity.

Election of Zohran Mandani as New York Mayor, on a socialist agenda, is a salient reminder to @australianlabor.bsky.social that unambitious, small ideas aren’t what people crave.
Big, bold transformational policies are a must…as is a new generation leader.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.

Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.

But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.

Remember this.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

And once again it’s fucking entitled men thinking they have the right to impose laws on women’s bodies and women’s choices. Just shows what truely despicable people they are.

If 'just doing your job' involves splitting up families and kidnapping people based on how they look, your job isn't really a job, it's a crime, and you've been recruited because you're a thug who is not capable of drawing that distinction.

Every country has a powerful right wing that argue “if you tax the wealthy, they’ll leave”

We need to start calling their bluff.

We need to make it so the ultra wealthy either contribute enough to be a positive part of society, or be globally shunned and unable to extract further funds from us.

A true visionary with genuine empathy who believed in trying to make society better for everyone.

He was cheated by our equivalent of the grubby republicans, and we’re worse off for it.

So yes, I agree!

I hate it so much. They will take us down with them.

Why have so many people debased themselves to service one cruel, weak, narcissistic man?

All these (mostly) men with endless money and power, and not a fucking spine between them.

And for what?

Apropos of nothing:

One of my pugs got off the lounge and went down the hallway. Then the other one got up and followed her.

After a couple of minutes they both just came back.

And I have to live with the knowledge that I’ll never know why.

Trump has now murdered 34 people in international waters.

No one has any idea if any were criminals, and of course it doesn't matter, because it was a war crime to kill even a single one of them.

Drug trafficking is a felony, but it's not a violent crime and isn't punishable by summary execution.

Considering the ALP win was a rebuke of maga/trump, I’d say that most Australians are *not* ‘all in on AUKUS’. Just my opinion though!
