"Undue support for the notion of antisemitism in Australia and its conflation with criticism of Zionism is at the heart of the problem here. Hence we have a press club in Australia that doesn’t want us to know about the slaughter of journalists in Gaza." #NPC

Cancelling Chris Hedges: What price balance?

On its homepage you will read that “The National Press Club (NPC) is a vigorous champion of media freedom and a home away from home for journalists”.

It's obvious Trump's trying to start a Civil War, just how long it takes before the guns come out during these ICE raids and the interstate National Guard's terrorising communities, because communities will have had enough and start shooting back

Medics and paramedics are still being killed, injured, detained and tortured by Israeli forces.

More than 1,700 health workers killed.

Yet still, Australia has failed to place sanctions for Israel's genocide in Gaza.

IDF’s bombs and ground offensive have killed tens of thousands of people and reduced entire cities to rubble

This didn’t start 2 years ago.
The world has watched decades of dispossession, occupation, and genocide - in silence, in complicity.
End the genocide.
Freedom and justice for Palestine.

A textured protest poster with bold, hand-cut lettering lists: “77 years since the Nakba, 58 years of occupation, 18 years of blockade, 2 years of genocidal escalation.” Behind the text is a brown silhouette of Palestine. Below, a large pink watermelon slice fills the lower half of the poster, its black seeds forming the word “Resist.” A white dove carrying an olive branch flies across the watermelon.

PM @albomp.bsky.social's statement 2 years after the Oct7 attacks is vomitous. No mention of the historical context: the Nakba, Israel's illegal occupation of Palestine, Israel's illegal blockade of Gaza, or 2 years of genocide. Not a single mention of ANY Palestinians being killed at all. 😔 #auspol

Australia and Papua New Guinea have been unofficial allies since PNG got independence from Australia, before that Australia had responsibility for the safety and freedom of PNG that's why Australia recalled our troops from the Middle East during WW2 to come back to defend PNG from Japan during WW2

What is wrong with our ABC News? Twice today I’ve listened to the news & heard rubbish from Scott Morrison, the Worst PM Ever, interviewed on #Murdoch’s Sky commenting on PNG & a Trump Peace Prize?!

We voted him out of office.
Why are we STILL getting “Morrison says…” on *our ABC*?

Please stop.

Oh look the party that screams “family values” every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But they’ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.

Chris Bowen taunts Dan Tehan following his visit to Nuclear sites in the US saying Tehan’s post-trip YouTube video shows “he did not visit any small modular reactors, advanced modular reactors or micro reactors, perhaps due to the small technical detail that none exist”🔥🤣 #QT

The Carbon offsets were a giant SCAM from the minute they were announced by the Fossil Fuel Industry, near me the owner of a farm is getting paid by 1 fossil fuel company for credits for a massive Gully on his property that is unfarmable and will never be cleared
