I've been watching the original Prime Suspect miniseries on ABC iView. Season 3 includes a cop getting bitten by a rent-boy with AIDS.
It seems to me that recent TV drama doesn't handle issues like this. What do you think?

In good news, I saw pics today from the Men's Choir my Qigong teacher's husband performed with - all middle-aged & older men. An engineer in the group made them all heart lights to wear 😍 All these rotund, hirsute fellas with glowing hearts on their bellies. They look like Care Bears, says teacher 🤭

I don't think they believe it, they just repeat the bullshit because it serves their (hateful, greedy) agenda
The idea that massive crackdown on anti-genocide protests in universities, and refusing to support Palestinian statehood would have somehow prevented last Sunday's terror attack in Bondi has already infected Aus media so deep that they're taking it as a truism

Data shows the LNP create the most immigration. They want corporate profits, so they want immigrants - as cheap labour and to prop up the economy.
They tell you to hate the people they bring here.

Mentions of government “critics” concerned about Australian immigration levels featured news coverage of the attack even before the immigration status of either alleged shooter was known.
Andrew Bolt instantly blamed Bondi atrocity on immigration. It follows a global right-wing script
While the predictable narrative is pushed by a small group of right-wing voices — regardless of context or relevance — it’s readily amplified to the masses by mainstream media.
