"progressive politics is not just about climate targets and tax reform. It must also be about moral courage: the ability to say, “Not in our name,” when innocent lives are being destroyed and our government looks away."

I finally loathe the Labor party
So Labor and the Liberals teamed up to pass legislation to give police the power to recommend cancellation of Centrelink payments of people who have not been found guilty of a crime by a court of law. It’s discriminatory financial punishment of people in poverty who are already over-policed

Ethnic cleansing of Palestine while the #WickedWesternWorld lies by omission.

A UN resolution built on Trump’s Gaza plan promises a ceasefire, foreign peacekeepers & a new “board of peace” to govern Gaza. But with no real accountability for Israel & Palestinians sidelined, is this an end to the war or a blueprint for a new occupation?

The Take: Did the UN just outsource Israel’s occupation?
Trump’s Gaza plan just won UN backing. What Resolution 2803 means for Gaza, Palestinians and international law.

Electricity is about to become the new base currency and China figured it out
As we accelerate into an all-electric, all-digital age, the ultimate representation of productive capacity becomes the kilowatt-hour (kWh).
