lets not forget that no matter what the power, NSW Police will always, ALWAYS, without exception, use it to target and surveil and criminalise and impoverish and traumatise Aboriginal children. Their core function is colonial control, which is racist violence.

95% of Australian political media coverage is a demand for a dog and pony show.

Something happened, we expect you to respond this way, why aren't you responding the way we expect, oh my god, you are now under pressure to respond the way we expect!

15 people murdered. Days of rolling media coverage of the Bondi Beach terror attack massacre.

400 Palestinians murdered by Israel during the "ceasefire". Zero Australian media coverage.

Israel is a terrorist state. Our politicians and media are complicit. #auspol #IsraeliTerrorism #GazaGenocide

A rabid Zionist is calling me sick and deranged for journaling truth.

My entire year has been getting yelled at by these guys because I dont like kids being bombed.

Sure, the ratio is satisfying, but it means nothing if our PM rolls over for their fascistic demands on our democracy, anyway.

Minns is too partisan ... it will cost him
No @chrisminnsmp.bsky.social you will not authorise a foreign paramilitary group made up of mercenaries & criminals to carry firearms & act as a private police force in Australia

Get a grip. There is no war

Our laws prohibit, explicitly, what you propose. You will be prosecuted, and you will lose

1/2 ABC news again demonstrates why it is losing trust with its audience.

Uncritical quoting of the President and PM of a genocidal, apartheid rogue state as arbiters of Australian political performance is something we've seen from NewsCorp.

From ABC, it is deeply embarrassing. #nswpol #auspol

2/2 The conclusion is as stupid as it is offensive:
"But [Albanese] cannot expect applause from the Jewish community until his words are followed by action."

No analysis of the "action" called for by the PM's critics.

No recognition that "the Jewish community" includes diverse views.

This is obscene. Taxpayers are funding elite private schools/businesses. While state schools remain underfunded.

An irony though is that state schools continue to punch above their weight, add value to students from ALL sectors of society, & state school students generally do better at university.
Private schools’ million-dollar principals.

The government is yet to compel private schools to publish their principals’ salaries, despite concerns that taxpayers are supporting packages up to $1 million a year. # auspol
