We turn to academia & the fourth estate for scientifically rigorous, evidentially based, objective & unbiased knowledge. The reason very few right wing attitudes are found in universities or quality journalism, is because most RW ideas aren't scientifically rigorous or evidentially based.

This is on you @albomp.bsky.social constantly making decisions that undermine our democracy by always favouring the wealthy elite over the bottom half of society!
The US is reaching pre-French Revolution levels of #inequality.

The Australian govt could continue down the American path, and give more fuel to One Nation and the far-right.

Or do the necessary policy reform.

If the govt is serious about 'social cohesion', *this* is where to focus. #auspol
Mark Zandi: The K-shaped economy is becoming more K-shaped. That’s the message in our updated estimate of personal outlays by income group. The share of total outlays going to those in the top 20% of the income distribution—making over $175k per year nationwide—increased to nearly 60% in Q32025.

Now Diaper Don wants Albanese to give him 1 billion dollars in 3 years time to let Australia join the Gaza peace plan, I'm sure all our homeless and poor people will be ok with this extortion and will have forgotten about it by the time our next federal election comes around, good luck with that 🤔

Dear Prime Minister Anthony Albanese @AlboMP, the biggest promoters of hate speech are Rupert Murdoch and Lachlan Murdoch and politicians.

Will they be covered by the proposed hate speech laws or be exempt as they were in the failed misinformation/disinformation laws?

These so-called "patriotic" 🇬🇧newspapers who brought you Brexit were never really patriotic at all.

They are driven by a disdain for Britain's European neighbours, and a fawning obsession with America.

They do not really want 🇬🇧 to be sovereign. They're content being a 🇺🇸vassal.

Trump ended US taxpayer support for a European ally fighting an imperial invasion - and then charged those same taxpayers additional tariffs to support his own imperial aggression against another European ally.

We get it, Newsom sucks.

The cure is too find another candidate to back because right now what’s breaking through is “Newsom President.”

You need “AOC President” or “Pete president” to be popular.

A lot of voting is word repetition. Elevate others instead of the person you hate.

Investigating elected officials for speech is not law enforcement but intimidation. If governors and mayors can be investigated for criticizing federal actions, neither elected officials nor anyone else is truly free to speak. #holdfast

“don’t give them an excuse, they’re waiting for a reason to invoke martial law” too often sounds like “dont make too much trouble or they’ll do to the rest of us what they’re currently doing to brown folks”
