If you want to have fun, go back a read the speeches by Liberal MPs during the Racial Discrimination Act 18C debates
eg "If we have the state regulating our speech, you also have the state regulating our thought, and I think that looks a lot like 1984".

I've never been more convinced Australia has the worst mainstream journalists in the world. Simple, thick, racist, ahistorical, bootlicking dipshits that lie and screech more than they think and feel. This weaponisation of a tragedy against anti-genocide voices is grotesque.

Justice Rangiah in his own words in Lattouf v ABC penalty decision.
The broadcaster has been ordered to pay $150,000. I was previously awarded $70,000 for hurt and distress.
ABC has spent in excess of $2 million on legal fees.
The real cost to Aunty is immeasurable.

Israel destroyed a Palestinian seed bank today. This is such a specific kind of evil, targeting literal hope for the future. Attempting to further alienate Palestinians from their home and land. So much destroyed just for the sake of destroying. It's awful.

Amnesty International, as the world’s leading independent human rights group, is deeply careful (and often criticised as being slow) when it comes to its research findings. It has now found with painful clarity that Israel is:
1) An apartheid state; and
2) Committing genocide against Palestinians.
