The genius of the Australian political system is to channel votes towards the centre via preferential voting. It may be the single greatest piece of democratic engineering in the history of the free world.

The oligarchs are far more vulnerable than they realise. They have a lot more to lose than the rest of us. These guys are all leveraged to their eyeballs. They have to avoid pissing off the public or their businesses and their fortunes can evaporate quickly. Just look at what happened to Musk.

Good on the QLD police for NOT fining homeless people as directed by the government. 👍
They already have nothing. How do they think fining them is going to work? When they can't pay, what happens next? Jail is the most expensive accommodation you could provide 🙄🤦

Not a single homeless person evicted by police after mayor's threat
Not a single fine or move-on order has been issued to homeless people in Brisbane, one week after Brisbane City Council declared it would evict campers from its parks.

@elonmusk It's simple. People will keep destroying what you love as long as you keep destroying what they love.

He's an idiot, sure. But the problem is he's a puppet of people who are idiots. The mega-rich have become so disconnected from the common experience of being human that they have lost touch with reality. When you hoard wealth to the exclusion of 99.99999999% your quality of life will be temporary.

Russia is in the wrong. They deserve to pay reparations to rebuild Ukraine and pay the money back for all the bullets that the Ukrainians were forced to kill them with. That would be fair justice for what Russia has done.
Now this is the part where simps for Putin tell me how wrong I am.

Since it was Russia who sent 100,000+ troupes over the border on 24 Feb 2022, perhaps one workable peace plan could be that they eff off home.

The only thing that has stopped the Western European nations from openly sending troops to repel Russia back out of Ukraine has been the threat of escalation to nuclear war.

The Fox media empire keeps the masses asleep. Or rather, mind controlled. And it's so effective that they have millions of people convinced that being 'woken' from their dictated dream-state is the worst thing they can image.

Just a reminder that 8 guys now have more money than 4 billion people combined. Each of them individually could probably solve hunger or access to education for everyone on Earth. But they don't. There has never been wealth disparity this extreme in all of human history.

Trump and his cronies never graduated from the lowest form of morality.
Iron Rule – "Might makes right."
The rule of power and dominance, where the strongest impose their will, often at the expense of fairness or justice.

The golden rule is not the highest standard.
Platinum Rule – "Treat others as they would like to be treated."
This emphasizes empathy, understanding, and respect for individual preferences and needs rather than assuming that what you want is what others want.

After purging top military leaders and lawyers, then siding with Russia & North Korea at the UN to prolong the war in Ukraine, the Trump regime isn’t just corrupt—it’s cartoonishly villainous. All that’s missing is a mustache to twirl. #Trump #UkraineWar #USA

I hope there's a very well-funded group of scientists out there getting to work because this nuggety football is coming in HOT, and none of the pro-sports-ballers will be taking this spicey catch.
