I just keep thinking of the heartlessness of going to an election promising to sack 41,000 people just because they’ve chosen public service. The LNP talks of small business owners going out of business as a tragedy. How is sending thousands of people into unemployment not?

If I could speak to the heads of big law firms, I would ask: Is the risk of losing some clients worth betraying your oath to the rule of law?

To everyone nodding but refusing to take a stand, I say: You are ignoring Martin Niemöller’s message. It is you that Martin Luther King Jr. was condemning.

Pete Buttigieg breaks down DEI for everyday folks…

“The opposite of diversity is uniformity. The opposite of equity is inequity. The opposite of inclusion is exclusion.” @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

Our problem: too many value uniformity over inclusion and they’re the ones running the government.

“Are you worried?” That is always the first question.

“Of course I am worried,” I respond. “The president of the United States considers me an enemy and has promised retribution. I would be an idiot not to be worried. But I am not going to give in. I will continue to fight.”
I Worry, but I Fight
From Marc | Despite that worry, I cannot stop standing up for what is right. I cannot turn a blind eye to injustice.

These circumstances justify an independent public inquiry, because the unjustified social harm it has all caused is dramatic.
All of these attacks were used by politicians on both sides and basically every media outlet to justify attacks on pro-Palestinian campaigners, pass repressive new laws and criminalise the anti-genocide movement. Now it’s revealed they were all orchestrated by one criminal syndicate
