You can vote your way into fascism but you have to fight your way out. One democratic socialist isn’t going to save you. First and foremost because democratic socialists are half-measure pushovers anyway.

Bonnie Parker was a good writer. She could have been a great writer if she’d had half a chance at life. The role of poverty in Bonnie and Clyde’s lives cannot be overstated. Media representations of them tend to soften it, to heighten the romance, but life was relentlessly hard on them.

Is Australia in a youth crime crisis? Here’s what the numbers say
State governments across the country have brought in harsher laws to deal with youth crime in recent years. But do the stats justify the punitive measures?

Labor stands for subservience to the US and the almighty profit motive. Just like the LNP. LNP is far right, Labor is right-leaning centrist AT BEST.
Sean Kelly’s The Good Fight asks an important question: does Labor still know what it believes – and is it willing to act on those beliefs under Albanese? #AusPol #Labor #Albanese #Inequality #Politics
What does Labor actually stand for in the Albanese era?
Sean Kelly’s Quarterly Essay The Good Fight asks a harder question than whether Labor is governing competently – it asks whether it still knows what it believes, and whether belief is translating into action.

I think Australia’s problem is that we’ve never beheaded a monarch. We don’t have a monarch on hand, but we have to grow up and overthrow some leaders so they stop treating us like garbage that they can just continually dump shit on while squeezing us for every cent.

Treating adults like garbage doesn’t work either. Turns out if you take people already struggling to behave in a pro social manner, throw them in a cage, treat them like dirt, strip them of what coping and decision-making skills they have by taking every choice away, they don’t come out ‘cured’ 🤷♀️
Treating children as adults in the justice system breaches international law and ignores decades of evidence on rehabilitation. Punishment entrenches harm, writes Annette Alexander-Fliegner. #YouthJustice #ChildRights #HumanRights #AusPol #VicPol #CriminalJustice #Rehabilitation
Trying teenagers as adults won’t fix youth crime
Victoria’s proposal to send 14–17 year olds into adult courts ignores international law, expert evidence and decades of failed policy. Rehabilitation, not punishment, is what reduces future harm.
