The Australian appears to have made itself the official channel for ARC speeches into Australian civic debate. It has long been unofficial, regularly platforming people in that movement. #Auspol open.substack.com/pub/lucyham2...
The Australian: tool of the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship?
In February, leading figures at Australia's only national broadsheet, Rupert Murdoch's prize masthead, went to the ARC conference in London. The newspaper gave many column inches to celebrate it.

It’s worth reading Ahmed (and me on the Australian relevance) on this body which is part of Abbott’s efforts to drag LNP to MAGAus.

This article focuses on Peter Thiel background to Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) as Christian Nationalist (& race science) body. Also substantially fossil fuel funded. Andrew Hastie is on that board with Howard, Abbott, Anderson & Stoker. #Auspol
Nafeez Ahmed develops his research on tech-authoritarian Peter Thiel’s “race” “science” work in UK. Cites PT as funder of Aus publication Quillette, tool of “human biodiversity” movement by Aussie Claire Lehmann.

'Blue Labour' and the Thiel Effect: How MAGA Is Making In-Roads Into British Politics
The ideology of the ‘Make America Great Again’ movement, which has transformed politics in the United States, is having an impact in the UK. But how is this influence being transmitted?

"The reluctance to acknowledge Roberts-Smith’s gruesome record, the dumping of Australia’s Frontier Wars into a collection of imperialist ventures, and the fetishisation of Western military might in the new imperialist ventures
...are all consistent with a relentlessly white-armband view" #auspol
Opinion | For the Australian War Memorial, atrocities committed by our forces — including Ben Roberts-Smith — appear to be the stuff of caveats and footnotes, all while our imperialist heritage is celebrated, writes Bernard Keane.
The Australian War Memorial's refusal to nix murderer Ben Roberts-Smith speaks to its deeper rot
Roberts-Smith's crimes are a stain on the honour of the Australian Defence Force and emblematic of a military culture of lawbreaking, thuggery and tolerance of atrocities.

Jane Caro has highlighted school funding inequality for a long time now and it’s about time we and politicians gave this issue considerably more attention.

It’s not difficult to see the emergence of fascism in the USA was born from the dissatisfaction of the working class unable to voice or obtain their needs.

What staggers me is centrist Govs around the world are not working extra hard to help this group when their democracies rely upon them.

The South Australian Labor Party used to be the stronghold of the vile Catholic Right. Now apparently they also have the Greek Orthodox Right?
Labor MP Tom Koutsantonis, South Australia's new treasurer, has told The Australian he is "very worried about that type of woke agenda"

"Young men used to make up a big cohort of Labor voters...a lot feel as if they have no voice representing them from any party," he said

Motherfucker, all their schools have been blown up! And they are not taught to hate – they grow up in a concentration camp that is routinely exterminated, and then learn lessons accordingly. They are the victims of genocide, perpetually tortured by a Nazified Israeli military.

Dems are weak as piss

Full of powerful, very wealthy, white, selfish conservatives

Self interested

No one cares

Especially the Dems

Otherwise they’d be far more aggressive in their responses / actions

Be like Gavin Newsom

Hell…..be militant!!!

One has to ask why the Executive Council of Australian Jewry is having a huge tantrum about the progressive Jewish Council of Australia being “disingenuous” and “fringe” when they’ve never had a similar outburst about their far-right friends at the Australian Jewish Association.
