'Monsters' are emerging.
Hanson is not in the same league as Smith but, imo, she aspires to be & talks the 'talk'
"Trump ... is a prototype - demonstrating how democratic systems can be hollowed out from within. Itβs not hard to draw parallels between Smith & Trump, a man she has openly admired."

Can we impose a "levy" on everything that comes out of his mouth, then?
"No country is immune from this conflict β¦ It is having a massive impact on the global economy."
Chatted yesti with someone who just got back from Paraguay. Filled his car with unleaded before he left - $1.26 AUD p/l. Gobsmacked by prices here.
Anyone else think we're getting conned & scammed.
Well ... yep. But ... deeply, deeply concerning that this absolute clusterfuckery makes perfect sense. Of course it does.
This says it all ... a cartoon, but not one bit funny.

The absolute arrogance ... actively targeting consumers - who keep their business going - by duping them, lying to them & arrogantly assuming they 'wouldn't notice'.
"Price drop" Woolies? Mic drop, more like it. Hopefully, you're goin' 'down down down' with Coles, you thieving pos.
"Trumpβs damage is likely irreversible. (He) does not negotiate in good faith any more, as the Iranians have found 3 times over nuclear issues."
"We mustnβt waste a good crisis ... (it's) an opportunity to lay down new markers."
We need new boundaries with the US, and we need to exit from AUKUS.
Exactly ... if you're competent - without also being a snivelling, fully compliant sycophant - you don't even get through the door in the first place.
Let's trust Crisafooli's DIVISIVE new 'laws' are ruled unconstitutional too.
π ... trained negotiators ... like 'Hogsbreath' or 'Krushner'? Not likely, not enough billions in it for Kushner. And, Hogsbreath must surely have run out of Pulp Fiction 'scriptures' by now so he's got nothin'! (Not sure what he didn't understand about the word 'Fiction' in that titleπ€·ββοΈ)
The 'illustrious' AFR doesn't know what it's talking about? Or, it does & it's full of mistruths (or the stretching of them?) And/or their platform is used to undermine ALP financial policies & to 'manufacture fear'.
As if there's not enough going on already, they weigh in with manufactured sh*t.
Hear, hear. Tax big business heavily, bring in the gas tax we all want levied against the fossil fools destroying our planet & start 'serving' the people in the capacity they were elected to. Defence spending and warmongering is the last on the list. And de-ally us from the US.
Ah 'capitalism' ... what a cracker of a 'system', eh? How's that obsession with "buyin' shit relentlessly" goin' on, Australia?
Ooops, wait upβοΈ ... we can barely afford to 'breathe', let alone eat or travel to our workplaces to earn the money to do so.
"Big business says a blowout in untargeted government spending supporting higher & middle-income earners via the National Disability Insurance Scheme ..."
Shut up, 'big business'. Just shut . the . fuck . up.
Ah ... the calibre of leadership by the so-called "leader of the free world" ... threatening to drop bombs - and, 'a lot of them' - as part of his strategy in 'peace talks'. Utterly contemptuous. And, contemptible.
fs, make it make sense.
I hope this trend becomes a pattern, then a standard and then a part of everyday life such that fossil fuels are soon relegated lower than the 'relevance' dumped on renewables by the fossil fools who lied repeatedly and with full knowledge of the damage their industry was doing to the entire planet.
Sound familiar, Australia? She's a regular old 'thong' is our Pauline ...
"... at times ..." (plural)
And it's not our fellow creatures who've set the 'time bomb' off ...
Such a magnificent planet. Such malignant and at time malevolent ignorance to have completely disregarded that ...
ππ ... how about ...
What's the bet all the fossil fuel fossil fools are re-jigging their portfolios to include renewables ...
cos . they . know ...

Mamdani 'weightlifting' kids ... & the kids 'weightlifting' Obama ...
too cute.
That's how it's done in China ... an extraordinarily & glaringly clear 'message' that children, females, victims of sexual assault will be protected & their perpetrators punished.
I doubt they do. They likely just follow trump on "truth" social to keep up with the latest round of clusterfuckery.
Yes! And, not just short term. We need to actively disconnect & de-ally from the US 'regime' which is nothing more than a 'warmongering machine' AND we do not need Marles squint-focussed on our defence budget. Our policy should be as China's is: "We dialogue first, & we defend if dialogue fails."
It's terrifying that they're actively trying to keep the world 'the way it was' and we're all trying to move forward, wanting to create it to be what we want. The only thing that gives them any leverage is our vote ... or not. But then ... there's Hanson, & her henchmen, Baaaaarnaby & Anguish.π±
IKR. And Marles knows that too. The brainless, baked on "Uncle Sam saved us" diatribe ... when "Uncle" is just a dirty, old, rapist paedophile.
Oh look. Marles has no spine either. No idea why you have him on a political 'talk show' like Insiders when he would nor - or could not - answer one Q., completely ignored the US role in the Hormuz disaster & inferred that China's a threat when it's the US who is the biggest warmonger on the planet.
