I've seen some egregious misrepresentation in my time, but how many mules would have to kick you in the head to draw the imputation cited from Saleh's post?
On 7 October 2023 Dr Riemer reposted the following tweet on his Riemer X account: 

Sarah Saleh: 

"If you're upset/shocked by images of Zionist bodies bloody & attacked & never shown a fleck of concern for the thousands of Palestinians who are under attack daily & murdered in cold blood, some whose bodies are held hostage as bargaining chips by Israeli occupiers - SPARE ME"

45. As at about March 2024, Riemer’s 7 October repost had over 42,000 views.
46. The post (endorsed by the Repost) proceeds on the basis that the Jewish people and/or 
Israeli people who had been murdered, maimed, kidnapped, raped or sexually abused
were Zionists by virtue of being Jewish and/or Israeli. 
47. The 7 October repost had the following imputation: 
a. There is no basis or reason for anyone to be upset or shocked by the murder, 
maiming, kidnapping, rape and sexual abuse by Hamas of Jewish people and 
Israeli people on 7 October 2023.

Albanese’s an insular, deeply institutionalised apparatchik who has spent his whole adult life in service to ‘The Party’.
ALP is his principal loyalty & focus - instead of people of Australia.
He is emblematic & stereotypical of the ‘political elite’ & lacks a scintilla of real world life experience

I'm just one person, and my programming needs are somewhat unusual (building various kinds of statistical forecasting models). But I'm just not seeing the consistent productivity gains from LLMs that I would have expected if you'd asked me 6 months ago.

The Albanese govt’s first term was the second most secretive on record.

Rather than changing their ways, they’re doubling down and tightening our FOI system to make it even harder to get information. Not a single expert or member of parliament outside of the Labor party has backed their new bill.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

it's beyond fucking tiring that a party with an obsession for holding people accountable for every single cent of welfare payments is handing out "how to crime" guides to their fucking employees #auspol

Because only the Antichrist would be so evil as to ask a billionaire to pay his fair share of tax…

Thiel said that international financial bodies, which make it more difficult for people to shelter their wealth in tax havens, are one sign the antichrist may be amassing power and hastening Armageddon, saying: “It’s become quite difficult to hide one’s money.”

As I argue in #PlatypusMatters, Australia has the world's best mammals, but is sadly the worst place on Earth to be a mammal, with the planet's worst #extinction rate.
The Christmas Island shrew is now the latest species to be officially declared extinct.

And then there were none: Australia’s only shrew declared extinct
The tally of Australian mammals extinct since 1788 is now 39 species – far more than for any other country

Warnings about how to avoid a paper trail that might later be accessed by an FOI request are part of the induction kit for new political staffers. Even the acronym has its own crude nickname in the ministerial wing: “FOI. Fuck Off Idiot.” satpa.pe/zPB9QFA
Inside Albanese’s FOI reforms: ‘He hates transparency’
Labor’s reforms to freedom of information laws are opposed by every public submission made to the Senate, with the government’s record on secrecy worse than Scott Morrison’s.

over nine thousand Palestinian people - around 9,570 people, on these figures - are incarcerated while presumptively innocent and subjected to extraordinary acts of violence by Israelis who literally rioted when there was a suggestion that prison rapists may be held accountable.

It really does say something when an article about reactions to a coal power plant continuing to operate says nothing about climate change, the existential threat it poses and the need to phase out oil, gas and coal.
