It’s hard to take the Coalition’s calls for a Royal Commission into the Bondi incident seriously after they fiercely opposed a RC into their illegal Robodebt scheme, then refused to apologise even after the damning findings confirmed Australians lost their lives. #auspol

How like their oppressors they have become @ivangayton.bsky.social @meckeringboy.bsky.social #auspol #GazaGenocide
MSF (Doctors Without Borders) was born in part of the realization by the Red Cross that they'd failed to speak out against the Holocaust of Jewish people in the Nazi camps. Founding MSF in 1971, former RC medics vowed to bear witness as well as rendering aid.

Racism, rooted in “otherness”, is as ancient as humankind. Anti-semitism, like Islamophobia, or hatred of wogs, dagos, and spicks, is but one form. Rather than privilege antisemitism (especially that conflated with antizionism), “Racism must be stopped at all levels, and in all forms” #auspol
Editorial: Anti-Semitism thrives on avoidance. It is stronger than optimism. This is the reality of a hate that lives in excuses. It must be stopped at all levels, in all forms. satpa.pe/LOn1i2v
The dull crack of anti-Semitism
This is not like other hatreds. It is ancient and particular. It is sly. It has its own tropes and symbols. For centuries it has contorted into different justifications, but it has always been the same.

This PR just gets worse and worse. Can we PLEASE clarify how being against the #genocide being committed by the #Israel government and #IDF is a sign of anti-Semitic #bias. Many #israelis as well as Jewish Australians are also against #genocide. #auspol
Not surprising that Israel’s list of most “antisemitic” Australians is only a list of people against genocide and contains not one far-right/Nazi.

A rise in Islamophobic incidents prompts warnings from Muslim organisations that their communities are at risk of "retribution" and "collective punishment" following the mass shooting.

Not only 'Machiavellian', but with deeply, ugly narcissistic inclinations.
Case in point:
Wilson & his vomit inducing proposal to his partner FROM THE FLOOR OF OUR HoR after HIS party subjected the country to that #SSM postal vote.
The gall!
The audacity!
The people have spoken

He hasn't listened.
