If the conservatives in Australia don't pull back their culture war bullshit over this, the Australian public will blowback. I've been involved/done polling on how ostensibly foreign issues debated in Australia are politically perceived domestically for 30 years. (1/2)

Yes, all English speaking countries suffer from bad journalism, but Australia does seem to have the lead for the most ignorant and stupid.
It comes from being so often rewarded for being so easily played by political forces.

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.

As I understand today's discussion, we can stop an ISIS cell by policing the speaker list at writer's festivals and the BA syllabus at Unis. And by "stopping demonstrations." This is madness.

The idea that changing a definition to include criticism of Israel as being anti-Semitic and cracking down even further on anti-genocide protests would have in any way made anyone safer is madness. That the Coalition have so comprehensively jumped to blame here is insanity. Who is this speaking to?

The symbolism of Australians racing to donate blood to help the victims of the antisemitic terror attack in Sydney should not be underestimated.
This is a people saying: I give of my most inner self to help you, unknown friends. I give without credit. I recognise that humanity is one body.

Where I live, there are enforced rules about what colour you can paint your house and about a kid wanting an Insta account but my neighbour could own multiple rifles.
As I understand it, legal gun ownership requires a licencee to demonstrate a "genuine reason" for such ownership. But a 50'ish suburban man can have 6?!!
The 50-year-old Bondi beach terror suspect who died was a licensed firearms holder, and had six firearms, NSW police say. Police have the six firearms from the scene yesterday. His 24yo son is in police custody in hospital in a critical but stable condition.

We refuse to let them divide us.
Australia will never submit to division, violence or hatred - and we will come through this together.

it's really sad that going on any of the major platforms in 2025 after an abhorrent event like last night's shooting means accepting that you be exposed to some graphic content. some platforms are worse than others, but it's remarkable that it's unremarkable.

Butt out Netanyahu. Ugly political point-scoring follows Bondi Beach tragedy - Michael West
Israel’s Prime Minister should butt out of Australian politics. The tragedy at Bondi Beach must not be exploited for political points.
