#Treaty
"As the vote was confirmed, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags were unfurled from the public gallery, where the First Peoples’ Assembly co-chairs, Ngarra Murray and Rueben Berg, sat alongside fellow members and Aboriginal elders. The Labor, Greens, Legalise Cannabis and Animal Justice party MPs who backed the bill turned to applaud the gallery. “This is a historic moment for our people,” Ngarra said after the vote. “We will tell our children about today, and they will tell their children, passing down to future generations the story of how decades of Aboriginal resilience and activism led to Australia’s first treaty. “Treaty marks the beginning of a new era, one where First Peoples’ 60,000 years of knowledge and culture is respected and celebrated. It’s an opportunity for all Victorians to acknowledge our shared history, heal and move forward together.” Berg said treaty recognises that Aboriginal people are the experts on their own lives."

Trump Why haven’t you let them out? Why have you not let them into your society? Turnbull Okay, I will explain why. It is not because they are bad people. It is because in order to stop people smugglers, we had to deprive them of the product. So we said if you try to come to Australia by boat, even if we think you are the best person in the world, even if you are a Noble [sic] Prize winning genius, we will not let you in. Because the problem with the people — Trump That is a good idea. We should do that too. You are worse than I am. Turnbull This is our experience.

'"If you approach a bird that doesn’t immediately stand to attention or go to fly away, or at least hop away, and you know it’s looking at you, then it’s in trouble,” says Bishop.

“It needs you to call somebody to help it.”'

"We think it led to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in these remote areas working more than 30 million additional hours across that entire period," she said.
(And in the meantime yet more coloniser guff ↓)
"Federal Indigenous Affairs Minister and Northern Territory Senator Malarndirri McCarthy said Labor was already fulfilling its promise of dismantling the CDP. "We have invested more than $770 million into our new Remote Jobs and Economic Development Program to give First Nations Australians the dignity of real work, real pay and better conditions," she said. "Our program is a game changer and making a real difference in people's lives. It is grounded in self-determination and focused on economic opportunity and community development." The ABC has also contacted the National Indigenous Australians Agency and the department and minister for workplace relations for comment. The lead applicant is Aboriginal artist Serena Marrkuwatj Bonson, from Maningrida in the Northern Territory. The claim alleged that over five years, she received 17 penalties and lost income for four weeks at a time. Ms Nagy said the consequences of the program remained raw for many families. "Those feelings of shame and humiliation from getting cut off … those feelings are very close to the surface," she said."

"The reluctance to acknowledge Roberts-Smith’s gruesome record, the dumping of Australia’s Frontier Wars into a collection of imperialist ventures, and the fetishisation of Western military might in the new imperialist ventures of the 21st century are all consistent with a relentlessly white-armband view of Australia’s military history. That history was founded on and then explored through imperialism and the slaughter of First Peoples at home and, usually, of Muslims abroad. Our defining military myth of Anzac is based on an unprovoked invasion of a Muslim country, and so it continues into 2025 with the celebration of our incursions into Afghanistan and Iraq. At least there’s a small note about the crimes we committed. Though, as the memorial hastens to add, no-one seems particularly interested in criminal charges."

@prisonculture.bsky.social post from September 18, 2025 at 2.30pm: "I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical."

Vocal proponents of “Pallywood” and “Gazawood” conspiracy theories have also argued that news media workers reporting on dire situations affecting Gazans are themselves Hamas sympathizers and collaborators. Israel, which has systematically targeted news media workers in military strikes and later claimed the slain workers were secretly partnered with Hamas, has cited the same line of attack in its own official communications. Since the war began in 2023, Israel has required international news media entering Gaza to embed with its military and its spokespeople, meaning that independent reporting from Gaza has come exclusively from Palestinian journalists – who pro-Israel advocates have categorically sought to portray as untrustworthy.5 In several cases, Israel and its most aggressive advocates have claimed without hard evidence that journalists killed by the Israeli military were clandestine Hamas operatives.6 By conservative counts, the Israeli military has killed at least 189 reporters and news media workers since the start of the Israel-Gaza war in Oct. 2023. (Many organizations report higher totals.) Even by conservative figures, it has been the deadliest conflict for journalists in recorded history. Across our datasets, mentions of these keywords spiked to their highest recorded levels after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu denied that Gazans were suffering from starvation as a result of Israel’s restrictions on humanitarian aid entering the region.9 Some posts containing the terms “Pallywood” and “Gazawood” echoed these claims, and some questioned whether Gazans were starving at all. One explanation for the timing of this spike could be the existence of a 'Legitimization Cell' in Israel's intelligence apparatus, specifically created to cast doubt on news from Gaza that could harm Israel's image abroad, such as images of starvation. An insider source told Israeli investigative platform +927 Magazine that "whenever criticism of Israel in the media intensified on a particular issue, the Legitimization Cell was told to find intelligence that could be declassified and employed publicly to counter the narrative.”
