The social media ban doesn't solve bullying, but it does teach kids that govts will go to extraordinary lengths to build & maintain systems to protect bullies rather than solve bullying

Women are very familiar with that scenario.

Australia's mainstream media is obsessed with the colour and movement of conflict.

As 'both sides' support #AUKUS, they have failed to investigate whether it might be a huge, wasteful and dangerous dud 'deal'.

Our media rarely 'speak truth to power'.
They parrot power's talking points.

Can the media reporting on news that the US agrees it is “worth continuing” with AUKUS, stop pretending that it’s some sort of big surprise that Trump agrees it’s worth taking our billions of taxpayer dollars for second rate submarines they don’t even have to provide?🙄

Instead of always attacking the most vulnerable of groups, how about we get an automated tax system for the very rich?

With no opportunity to redress if the computers charge *too much* tax.

Removing all care from the caring industry.

This is going to be soul destroying for clients and staff, such an obviously bad idea.
Wouldn't a decent society be happy to genuinely look after its own?

Social media replicates traditional mainstream media in this way: the “right-wing” ideology is pure poison and in order to have any real hold in the general population requires billionaires to control and manipulate the information sphere to relentlessly distort, fearmonger and warmonger.
The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

Shameful, but not surprising.

Whether it is
- jobs for mates
- failure to fix #whistleblower law
- freedom *from* information under #FOI
- the knackered #NACC
- #AUKUS secrets
- dodgy deals on #Nauru

the Albanese govt is losing trust and credibility. #auspol

Now it's clear why the Albanese Govt was hiding it for two years.

The Albanese government would never allow any Greens or Indies on the #AUKUS committee.

Because it is not about "scrutiny".
It is to rubber stamp Labor and LNP's bipartisan sell-out of Australia to the US. #auspol
