It’s one thing for a social group to think themselves a ‘chosen people’ for religious or cultural reasons. But to enshrine a special status in Australian law is offensive to everyone else, and just plain weird.

This should be a lesson for Americans, apparently everyone (vast majority) is too scared to be uncomfortable at minimum.
Like stop feeding the rich yall? Stop buying stuff you dont require to survive. Its a silent form of resistance but it works.

I already have a counterproposal:
Russia pulls forces/proxies out of Ukraine—all of it—and removes offensive weapons from regions bordering Ukraine.
Pays for all war damage—and reconstruction.
All Russians engaged in war crimes stand trial.
And Ukraine can join any alliance it damn well pleases.

There's nothing inherently wrong with climate change. It's just that the ecosystems and built environments that we depend on as life support systems aren't equipped to handle the rapid changes. So if we want to live, we should deal with climate change ASAP.

One of the most damaging and enduring aspects of the Dismissal, fifty years ago today, was its poisoning of the electorate against the Whitlam government, ensuring that it would lose the subsequent election and creating fear of progressive government.
