This prison sentence is great to see. I hope the thousands of other trolls who abused Brittany Higgins while she was suffering the traumatic aftermath of being raped consider the damage they did. Their only interest was defending a rapist.

The one area where this site is inferior to Twitter is the volume of this kind of defeatist bullshit
This is the zero introspection, couch-keyboard-warrior crowd that cannot realize the obvious: your performative online cynicism about liberal democracy is possible only due to its resounding success

What’s this stale romanticization of patriotism and liberal democracies supposed to accomplish, I wonder. The liberal democracies you revere are responsible for countless deaths. And its impossible for you to care for lives that are inconvenient for your politics.
My parents’ generation fought for the liberal democratic society you people despise out of privilege and complacency.
One side failed, the other side succeeded. Democracy is a foundation of a civilized society.

Good morning and Happy Thursday to everyone who agrees with General Milley that Americans do not owe our allegiance to a King, Queen, or a wannabe dictator. We owe our allegiance to the Constitution.

Quick thoughts on some really encouraging new numbers on jobs and wages today. Average full time earnings are now $11,000 higher than when this Albanese Labor Government came to office. More to do, but making good progress together. #auspol #ausecon @australianlabor.bsky.social
