"Iran has been at war with us for 40-some years" is only one step removed from "we have always been at war with Eastasia"

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - being against Zionism IS not anti Semitic.

Anti-Zionism means that you are against a political ideology that thinks it is ok to brutally murder tens of thousands people and steal their land, because they think they are superior to those people.

Powerful stuff!

I've driven many, many Fords. Not one has consistently gone where I pointed it!

Cartoon of a computer user encountering a CAPTCHA that says 'To prove you're a human, click on all the photos that show places you'd run for shelter during a robot uprising'.

I disagree - it's possibly a bit disrespectful but not particularly offensive.

We will decide where you protest against unreasonable actions of the state and the places in which you do it.

How prescient. It was relevant then and it is relevant now. The world is so much poorer for his loss.

Live: Minns admits clashes 'don't look good' but defends police after Herzog rally clashes Twenty-seven people were arrested, including 10 for assaulting police, on Monday night at a demonstration against Israeli President Isaac Herzog's visit to Australia.

Do. Not. Let. Them. Minimise. This.

Armed state violence against peaceful prayer is peak Islamophobia and vicious racism and. We have very few codified constitutional freedoms and this is almost certainly unconstitutional. They are officers of the law.

So the PM wants us to believe that "healing" and "social cohesion" after the Bondi massacre will be best achieved by the state visit of someone who is not only a genocide enthusiast,
but is allegedly an associate of Epstein's.

Poor judgment does not begin to describe Albanese's craven stupidity.

Should Australia rethink its alliance with the United States? As Donald Trump’s military threats and trade wars unsettle allies, some experts are calling for a rethinking of Australia's long-standing alliance with the United States. The debate has been sharpened...

I love Caramello 🐨s! We're going to have to find a viable way of removing some CO2 from the atmosphere. In the meantime, we need to reduce greenhouse gas pollution to the absolute minimum (not 'net zero', which is a scam).

Countries including UK, Norway, NZ and South Africa called on Australia to implement an Australian Human Rights Act last night. They heard 150+ Australian orgs calling for human rights at the heart of our laws so everyone can enjoy their rights.

This is important. We need one!

Presumably he did as he was lawfully directed; that doesn't necessarily mean he wanted to. I'd so much rather have a former career public servant as ambassador than a politician (or a sportsperson or former singer, as has been suggested).

The tweet reads: Today, I want to be very clear - The more than 40,000 who served our nation in the 20 years of the war in Afghanistan did so with extraordinary bravery and made our nation proud. The 47 who made the ultimate sacrifice will forever have their names etched on our nation’s most sacred roll of honour. For those who were injured physically, and mentally and emotionally, our nation remains in your debt. The brave deeds of each of these people now form part of the history of our nation. And in thanking them for their service, all of us- in knowing they carried our flag- feel an immense sense of pride.

Is there anything more modern-day-Labor than Richard Marles defending Australia troops against slander without mentioning the slander was committed by Donald Trump?
Surface level concern underpinned by utter cowardice and complicity.

BOVINO: With those inner city residents, what we're seeing is fantastic public support. Here in Minneapolis a lot of thumbs up and a lot of 'good jobs.' Now, a lot of it is under their breath because they are afraid of that 5 or 10% of agitators are rioters


VITTERT: Come on, commander

In a few years, Australians will look back on the #AUKUS debacle as a horrifying example of stupid, dangerous and secretive policy.

It will be one factor hastening the death of the 'two party system', as people realize that neither LNP nor Labor can be trusted with our national security. #auspol

Under the government’s hate-crime package, a Palestine solidarity group could be proscribed on the basis of past lawful advocacy alone, without conviction or hearing, and that proscription would then criminalise future membership and support. gregdare.au/chatgpt%20ou...

Australia's road toll is rising, but not for the reason you think A grim year on our roads, especially for pedestrians.

TAX. THESE. OUT. OF. EXISTENCE!

These monstrosities should be illegal! Large vehicles are markedly deadlier for pedestrians. Being struck by a large SUV raises the risk of death by around 40 per cent compared with a smaller car; for children, the risk is up to eight times higher..."

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.

The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.

But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.
