When this blows over I might have to share some of the emails I’ve received over the days which really make me wonder why I am the one accused of hatred. There is deep unresolved trauma being spewed by some of these people and we cannot consent to living according to their warped reality.

Here’s a task for every Australian resident/citizen to do as soon as possible.
Write to your MP & tell them this is totally unacceptable & that wish-washy fence sitting responses from PM Albanese, Dep PM Marles, Foreign Min Wong are inadequate & help tyrants like Trump+Putin break international law.

I will be writing to my Federal MP in the morning to state my horror at the actions of the US in Venezuela. I will be demanding that Australia distance itself from the US. I want the US Ambassador to be called before the PM and be asked to explain WTF is going on and to explain how a democracy works

Why is our Australian mainstream news media not reporting (or downplaying) the violent openly Islamophobic attacks on Muslim Australians that have occurred in recent days? The racist pro-Israel anti-Muslim agenda of our media is blatant and abhorrent. And our Govts are complicit. 😔 #auspol #nswpol

Shame on Segal. Directly linking peaceful protests against Israel's genocide in Gaza with the atrocity in Bondi. Disgusting.

If anything good could come out of this evil day, it's the unhesitating bravery of Ahmed Al Ahmed, who's in hospital himself with gunshot wounds.
Nobody should be in hospital with gunshot wounds in Australia, or anywhere for that matter.
Nobody should have to bear-tackle an armed mass murderer.

Quit Amazon and all of their affiliates now! They have already started replacing workers with robots. Their goal is to replace half a million workers with robots. Their reason? Humans are inefficient and cutting into their bottom line. But they need humans to buy their products so stop buying them!

Editorial: Monique Ryan’s bill would stop ministers and senior staff from working as lobbyists for three years after they leave politics. It would reveal who lobbyists meet and force ministers to publish their diaries. The reforms are simple and effective and will not pass. satpa.pe/qBKzq4W

Christopher Pyne was still a cabinet minister when he met with EY to discuss taking a job with the consultancy. There was no confusion about the purpose of the meeting.
