This is a great approach that could really apply to so many different movements or even to life in general
Yes, we have to resist — but we can’t live in panic 24/7.
My friend Gina’s rule: 15 minutes fighting fascism, 15 hours seeking joy.
Joy is an act of resistance.
Refuse to let them take that from you.
Do something today that makes you feel alive.

Amazon workers in Quebec unionized, so Amazon closed all their fulfillment centres in the province.
7 centres shut down. Almost 2,000 people out of work.
This is a massive violation of labour rights.
It’s also an excellent reason to boycott Amazon.

Electricity prices! What a shemozzle!
I can't flick a switch without thinking of former LNP PM John Howard's:
"We are firmly of the belief that services are best provided by private industry."
Can you think of 1 instance where privatisation has worked for consumers?
Labor started it in 1991.

There's the list of who needs to be Sacked right there, get some young Detectives into the NACC who can investigate fraud and other crimes and give them the power to Prosecute, what we have now looks more like a retirement home with massive pensions

Opinion | One Nation won’t actually help aggrieved middle-aged men facing real or perceived financial stress. It’s a game Barnaby Joyce knows well, having similarly played rural voters at the Nationals.

This is so true; we've been conditioned to "believe" with childlike thinking since we learn to walk and talk, that the mind has been trained like Pavlov's dogs. Schools don't teach us to think; they just repeat old data.
