I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

This is the most basic principle of what they call the "justice" system, and they want to strip it away with no scrutiny.

So tell me Terry, if a group of people decide to squat in your Melbourne flat, does that make them your equals when it comes to deciding what to do with the property, or do you as the owner retain certain rights and privileges above and beyond theirs?
The 65,000 people who identify as Aboriginal, out of over seven million Victorians, will be given rights, privileges and institutions setting them above the rest of the population.

Best thing they can do is organise to find & vote for politicians who will act on homelessness - as every homeless person is a sign of political failure
Instead they throw money at perpetuating the problem instead of addressing the problem #auspol

All this, but with the Australian government subbed in for the British government. The LibLab parties of Australia are accessories to an antisemitic genocide. Albo and co should get life sentences.

Sanctions are a start but we need action to stop the genocide - that means ending the two-way arms trade and cancelling the $2 billion of weapons contracts the Australian Government has with Israeli companies

Agree 100%.
I gradually went vegetarian. And stayed that way for several years. Then gradually went vegan. That was over a decade ago. I wish I'd done it sooner, but at least I did it.

Although I stopped eating all animal products at once, some vegans transition more gradually as they feel increasingly comfortable with their food choices. Today would be a great day to start either way and help stop animal cruelty one vegan meal at a time. 🌱☮️

The North West Shelf extension is a disaster.
It will release more pollution each year than all of Australia’s coal stations combined, threaten ancient Murujuga rock art, and deliver $0 to the public purse.
Yet Labor approved it anyway.

Senator Dorinda Cox by jumping to Labor from the Greens has now put herself into a predicament now.
She says her values now align "more with Labor" yet just last Wed, issued a pointed statement against the Labor environment minister about approving the WA north west shelf gas extension. #auspol

And the lines all our nations have allowed Israel to wilfully stomp over will come back on all of us. There is no international law now. No one is safe. Nothing they do matters. You could see 40,000 babies burned in a room and it would barely make a ripple in the mainstream. I’m so, so broken
