When politicans fail, police go rogue, justice fails to protect - Michael West
Herzog has departed, leaving behind anger and less social cohesion, while politicians, justices and NSW police have many questions to answer.

Absolutely!! Right on the money. As an ex far-right Fundamentalist, I can tell you that while they don't like to look at the "White" element, it is there in practice. And the rest is just, well, fact
As I keep saying, performative “Christianity” is part of the radicalised Right’s shtick. If they pretend to be Christian, we have to “respect” their “beliefs” (bigotries) because God & “nature” made the White man all powerful & the rest his servants. It’s uniting a fractured, fractious bloc.

So according to the NSW Police Minister, the cops lack the emotional maturity and training to be trusted near crowds, and people should be gentle with their precious little feelings. I mean it's something we all knew, it's just bracing for them to admit it.

The 'hollow myth' of Australia's defence.
Australia's defence strategy (if you can call it that) has been to rely on great powers to protect us.
That didn't help us in WWI or WWII. With the US sinking into fascism, it's a dangerous strategy.
