Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

The evilness of the Israeli regime is beyond measure. All this surveillance pre and post October 2023 and we're supposed to believe the Hamas attack came as a surprise. The Israeli government knew it was going to happen. #gazagenocide

Bari Weiss is the logical endpoint of corporate media. This is what happens when people who hate journalism are in charge of it. The only way journalism works is when it’s independent from the power it’s supposed to hold to account, which means ownership can’t have anything to do with those in power

Nothing more than perceived wealth that doesn’t exist for the purposes of taxes, but magically does for the purposes of leverage. Meanwhile, the rest of us pay real taxes on low wages and can’t leverage shit. The game is rigged. Tax the rich.

If you ever wondered how it came to pass that Australia couldn’t settle (and still can’t) on a single railway gauge, remember that in 2025 we can’t agree on laptops in or out at two different X-ray machines at the same fkn airport.

This comment under Tim Dunlop's excellent article on the social media ban is spot on.
The social media ban is highly reactionary (& a result of a wedge) and is 'neat, plausible & wrong'
