I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

michaelwest.com.au/pay-per-show... Shock that a Labor government would introduce a program that charges pensioners for a support worker to help them take a shower. I can only imagine what Hawke would say seeing his beloved Labor Party travel this far down the neoliberal rabbit hole.
Pay per shower: fully-funded aged care turns market-driven aged support - Michael West
The new Support at Home Program for the elderly is introducing a 'free market' transactional aged care system. It's a retrograde step.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

Anything Hastie, Canavan, Price, Taylor or Joyce put forward can be ignored for a variety of reasons, but the main one is they represent a minority, fringe ideology hell bent on division in service of rich wannabe oligarchs.

I'm not gonna lie, y'all: even nearly a decade into this, it still feels surreal that a sitting POTUS can do one long, bizarre stream-of-consciousness ramble about whatever silly shit happens to pop into his head on national television, and political media still shrug their shoulders + write it up.

The gas industry has had higher profit margins than ANY other sector in Australia over the last few years.

That's unsurprising when you know how little tax they pay. A THREAD (1/5)

Convenient how the CEO of Woodside thinks that young people calling for a livable planet are the problem.

Not the oil and gas corporations pumping millions of tons of CO2 into the atmosphere, boiling the world.
