The illusion is Left vs Right.
The reality is Rich vs Poor.

So it has always been.
So it shall always be.

The greatest threat to the powerful, is a people united
in knowing who their true enemies are.

He’s weaponizing starvation — using the hunger of the American people as a bargaining chip. This isn’t leadership. It’s cruelty. It’s inhuman.

Generative AI being 'wrong' in the information it produces, and being unethical in how it steals human labor are both overlapping issues and it's important to show a bit of damn solidarity even if you're not a scientist, or information worker, or a writer, or an artist, or a photographer

In case you missed it… Tony Armstrong ex AFL on ABC on researching efforts around counteracting racism in Australian sports. I’m no sports fan but I found his series on ABC quite positive & interesting.

National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Legal Services (NATSILS) Chair Karly Warner called the proposal “controversial” and said it is “an unprecedented attack on fairness and due process which will shake public confidence in our legal system.”

The duopoly just joined forces in the Senate to vote down an #AUKUS inquiry. Never mind the political, technical & management risks associated with the program, or the $365B price tag - the two major parties are happy sleepwalking with your national security and money. #auspol
