Ley's found her perfect wedge; the royal commission, and she'll drive it into every household, every workplace, into Australia itself. This is ALL the Libs do - divide, divide, divide. Well, we're divided. And we're sick of it. We're sick of being pitted against each other so others can benefit.

Being tolerant isn't a choice, it's a responsibility. Humans don't like each other. That's the bottom line. We don't seem to like or value anything, including our own planet. We may never find our way out of conflict, and if that happens, we'll probably wipe ourselves out at some point.

Tolerance doesn't mean blindly loving everyone. It doesn't even mean you have to like them. Just ask a misanthrope.🌼

The amount of damage two people did with rifles is horrific. When you think of the number of people who were shot, it's hard for me to get my head around.
Let's never forget that two members of One Nation went to America in order to solicited donations of up to $20 million from the NRA -

The bot, fake and overseas accounts are busy on Australian social media pages today, while certain politicians are barely able to contain themselves. But Australians are saying the same thing. No, we won't divide for your benefit.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.

How do people come up with dates for raptures? What is the notification process?

The determining factor in autism is the same factor in non-autistic people being born. Your parents, your grandparents, your great grandparents, your great, great grandparents ...

He talked about removing rights from every single group of people in America except his own. He told said group of the same people they were the 'right' people, with the 'right' morals, the right god, blah blah blah. He trained his followers to delete empathy (because you can't have empathy for

Being an autistic Aussie is saying you like Ford's AND Holden's, and feeling the weight of the awkward pause that always follows.

Watching Australian politicians gleefully lie about what WTC is, telling us it's A Very Important Issue we all need to be incredibly concerned with right now, and insisting an ancient tradition about respect and welcome is ... bad. How does ANYONE fall for this BS? 😡
