Definitely not a bot. Australian. Worked and lived in Australia, Britain, Germany and Malaysia. Retired teacher. Vehemently anti fascist. Born when Jews and other minorities and political opponents were being gassed and their bodies cremated.
Where is Premier Minns when it comes to protecting the social harmony of Muslims in Australia and particularly Lakemba against the vicious, vile, hateful and Islamophobic Pauline Hanson?
Silence is not the answer. And his new hate speech laws. Where are they?

How can Bupa afford to sponsor Nine's Winter Olympics coverage, but it is compelled to increase its health insurance rates by 5.5%.

I know lots of Muslims.
All of them much more welcome to enter my home than the vile, hateful, attention seeking, Islamophobic, dog whistling, go anywhere, say anything moral vacuum that is Pauline Hanson, who wouldn't get past my front gate.

Throughout all this, has anyone ever heard Trump utter a single word of sympathy for Epstein victims?

Crazy that we don’t even bother asking ourselves anymore if the President of the United States has any basic humanity.

These are the oligarchs who seek to rule every aspect of our lives, and the current US regime is doing everything possible to facilitate that because it is owned by them.

ALFORD: We're not doing the drop boxes, which led to a lot of mistrust during the 2020 election

BORIS SANCHEZ: Well, a lot of that mistrust was sewn by the president, who made repeated false claims about widespread election fraud when there was none

"Restore Australia's way of life" is as vague, meaningless, hollow and impossible as "Make America Great Again" from which it is stolen.

Exactly when is Angus Taylor referring to?

"A way of life" is not static or concrete. It changes with time and events. You can't reverse it.

It's BS.

One thing the right-wing media will not report about ICE is the fact they have arrested almost a million people in various processes of migrating to the U.S. and place those people into prison.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

The beauty of Taylor's immigration proposal lies in its moral simplicity. “Good migration” strengthens Australia. “Bad immigration” weakens it. Good migrants lower inflation. Bad migrants apparently raise it.

Australians often define ourselves by who we are not.

The Immigration Door: Open, Closed, and Very Australian
New Liberal leader Angus Taylor has announced a bold new plan to restore “Australian values,” reduce cost-of-living pressures, and reintroduce a door policy at the national border. “It is clear that n...

Get out the dog whistle.
“Our borders have been opened to people who hate our way of life,” Mr Taylor has warned.

This raises an obvious administrative question: how, precisely, does one measure hatred of a way of life? Through opinion polls? Social media posts? A failure to appreciate Slim Dusty?

Rather than using their success at the last two elections to advance a genuinely progressive agenda, Labor has chosen to take a managerialist approach to politics which is failing to satisfy community needs across a range of areas.
