I've been thinking about the NBA betting stuff and maybe it's because I'm in Aus, but the seriousness of it just isn't really hitting. I'm seeing the white house getting partly torn down and amid the symbolism of that it's hard to get fired up about a dodgy poker game (oversimplifying yes).

So will a single Australian journalist ask any politicians whether they consider expressing anti-fascist sentiment is terrorism, or should I just assume I'll be thrown in jail eventually for saying "I resent autocracy"

You'll note from the footage that NSW Police officers saved their most extreme violence for the women in attendance
As CCTV footage reveals lawyer Hannah Thomas was punched in the face by a NSW police officer, the call is to drop charges against her and book the officer responsible for grievous bodily harm

This is what Australia's "envoy" wants - regular people to be confronted by police, threatened with arrest, and be accused of associating with terrorists. Albanese will forever be a traitorous fraud if he goes ahead with her plan
Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.

America is a fascist nation and the UK looks like they're right behind them
The police (wrongly) inform a peaceful protestor that holding a Palestinian flag and signs deploring genocide is an offence under the Terrorism Act. This is the deranged policing environment the government has created.

Such a shockingly transparent right-wing project designed to worsen racism, hate and abuse. I cannot imagine how it could get any more transparent than this.
It is not possible to be this ignorant.

Australia's antisemitism envoy has praised how platforms like Elon Musk's X are using AI to fight hate — days after X's AI bot Grok was taken offline for antisemitic posts.

Love that our labour government seems set on entering a security deal with these crooks
If that’s what they do to a US Senator with a question, imagine what they do to farm workers, day laborers, cooks, and the other nonviolent immigrants they are targeting in California and across the country. Or any American that dares to speak up.
I will not stop fighting to demand accountability.

why everything sucks online:
1) online ads used to pay for everything until companies realized that ads didn't work that well
2) the companies that owned the ad systems need something that makes money since ads are working less
3) the people making stuff still needed the money that ads gave them

You cannot be friends with me, you will not earn a shred of respect from me, if you can't call this what it is, fascism. Time to pick your friends carefully.
I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.
