The performative mourning driven by social media, was from blueprints sitting there in large conservative think-tanks like the Heritage Foundation, waiting to be deployed
The alleged outrage was at its core, manufactured recreational grief-bait

You’re being played – your part in the culture wars - The Shot
When Zack de la Rocha told you to rage against the machine, he didn’t mean take it literally. Agitprop. Fury bait. Yes, you feed it too.

When it comes to the horrors of genocide we say these words with an ironic frequency. How do we short-circuit the re-run of this pitiful, shameful cycle?

Not a single crate has been allowed through, despite the urgent warnings from the world’s humanitarian organisations and the screams of Palestinians. There is nothing normal about the silence in response
No baby formula has entered Gaza for four months because of Israel’s genocidal blockades. There is nothing left to feed babies and their mothers can not produce milk as they themselves are starving. There is no defending what Israel is doing. No justification.

1. One of capitalism’s greatest successes is to shut down our imaginations. With the help of its favoured tools - neoliberalism and fascism - it persuades us that “there is no alternative”. Our first task is to re-ignite our moral imaginations and name our alternatives. 🧵

I just keep thinking of the heartlessness of going to an election promising to sack 41,000 people just because they’ve chosen public service. The LNP talks of small business owners going out of business as a tragedy. How is sending thousands of people into unemployment not?

There's obviously so much more that needs to be done, but you can't realistically unravel 10 years of corruption in 5 minutes.

While more still needs to be done, efforts to combat severe disadvantage in Australia are working.

This Lino print was one of the first prints I created 10 years ago when I finally had the courage to call myself an ‘artist’ and the courage to offer my work for sale (and public scrutiny!). ❤️
