Pauline Hanson has yet again walked into the #Senate wearing a burqa in another attempt to insult Muslim Australians. Senators call out her Racism.
Not sure how this helps Hanson’s appeal against a finding that she is Racist.

Blaming the migrant: Inside the Liberal Party’s new strategy. But don’t worry, it’s a pitch to the far right and it’s a recipe for disaster. In the meantime, we all have to suffer.

Blaming the migrant: Inside the Liberal Party’s new strategy
A party that forgets why it wants to govern, loses the public altogether. That’s what’s happening to the modern Liberal Party with its descent into an inane brand of retail politics.

Pay attention to how men speak about the women in their lives, especially women who are doing better than them. Notice how he adores the women who serve his needs but despises those who excel without giving him a second thought, or no longer abandon themselves to fulfill his needs.

👇👇👇 “… the move from immediate reaction to sustained campaign”
The genesis of hate is rarely monolithic. It often has proximate causes that are ordinary – economic insecurity, perceived disrespect, competition over scarce resources, contrasting identities stressed by conflict. When these proximate causes intersect…

A thought on the endless cycle of hate
The origins of hate, tied to fear and a lack of understanding, can be overcome through mutual recognition at the personal, social and institutional levels.

You might not have caught what just happened on the Senate floor, but the Senate just “deemed as passed” the Epstein resolution.
That means as soon as it arrives from the House, it automatically passes the Senate (with no amendments) and heads to the President’s desk.
Wow.

Jess Wilson interview with Raf Epstein - the same blah blah blah motherhood statements of what we’ll do but so little of how we’ll do it that we’ve heard for decades. Hard to think it’s nothing more than rearranging deck chairs.

As a teacher I very much second this. Whether its a difference of wealth & privilege, or ethnicity, language & culture, neurodivergence or neurotypical, disabled or able bodied, and queer or cishet; living with difference gives kids their best chance to be excellent humans.
Aside from safety and gentleness, the biggest thing I think kids need is contact with people who are different to them. This is why private schools are such crocs of shit - these kids never learn that other kids aren't as well off as they are, never have to confront their own privilege.
