If we really cared about babies (or anyone, for that matter) then we would protect them from COVID19 (as well as other diseases, of course).

Very important proposal for bus signal priority in Vancouver by Mayoral hopeful @wazaroff.bsky.social running for @onecityvan.bsky.social. Transportation equity means prioritizing transit that’s moving a LOT more people in a lot less space. That’s ironically better for EVERYONE, including drivers.

Text from the Prime Minister defending inviting Herzog to visit Australia

You cannot build social cohesion by inviting one of the unrepentant proponents of genocide

Just your regular reminder that John Howard never pushed back against Pauline Hanson and One Nation policies. He embraced them, which is how he outflanked them, while also setting the stage for what the Liberals are today. The myth that he 'pushed back' truly needs to die.

Add Your name: First Nations communities deserve safety and justice The Invasion Day rally in Boorloo / Perth was subject to a hateful and racist attack. Right now, we need our allies to speak up with us: for safety, freedom and justice. Sign the open letter to Home A...

On 26 January, a man threw a home-made bomb into a crowd of First Nations people & allies. Australia has new anti-hate laws. Will they be used to truly protect, or as an excuse to censor marginalised groups? I just signed the open letter to @tonyburkemp.bsky.social - will you join me? bit.ly/46gnJnp

You have plenty of support from people in other countries too.

Care about improving Canberra?
Care about community?

Come help Living Streets Canberra shape what it does next to improve Canberra for people when walking (or wheeling) and build community:

So much for the 'sustainability' and 'care' claims that supporters of native forest logging use.

The demolition of Roe v Wade, legislation that assured a woman's right to make her own decisions about her own body, was allegedly America's first step into neo-fascism. Until those rights are restored, America will continue its descent.

After Bondi, calls for a Royal Commission appeared overnight, delivered by rotating groups using identical language. That is astroturfing, a PR tactic that simulates grassroots demand to manufacture urgency, crowd out scrutiny, and lock in policy before evidence is tested. More on YT

It’s important for the international community to boycott America

That includes the World Cup and Olympics

Refuse to support fascism

Refuse to support a country that’s targeting all marginalized people, killing & detaining its citizens and threatening its allies

It’s not safe. It’s not worth it.

If there is a Royal Commission into Bondi and anti-semitism, you are all allowed to make submissions you know.

I stand with Randa and everyone standing against hate, genocide, oppression and terror. In all its forms.

Instead, I commend to you the caring and balanced position of the @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social and its petition calling for unity:
jewishcouncil.good.do/unity/jewish...

Any #RoyalCommission looking at what happened at Bondi would, of course, need to wait until after all legal proceedings involving the surviving shooter have finished (so as not to prejudice them).
In other words, no #RoyalCommissionNOW

If there is to a #RoyalCommission then it should either be:
. very narrow (looking at failures of laws, their enforcement, and security intelligence) or
. very broad (looking at biases and hatred against all racial and religious minorities).

There are a raft of reasons why a #RoyalCommission responding to #BondiAttack should not proceed.

I am, however, aware of political realities.

The Bondi shooting was a tragedy and needs a sympathetic response to the people affected.

However, a range of actors are milking it for their own political gain - at the expense of the broader Jewish and non-Jewish community.

The best illustration of astroturfing I’ve seen.
Bravo. 🙌

Correct, the criminal trial needs to be concluded before an RC so the criminal trial isn't prejudiced. We know from experience, high profile criminal trials take years. The recommendations groom an RC would be years away.

Cathy. Simply perfect. I hope that @albomp.bsky.social sees this.

You have to give credit to the pro-Israel lobby. They’ve managed to push murder of non-Jewish civilians by Israeli soldiers & settlers off the front pages of our legacy media. If we must have a RC let’s cover the causes and correctives needed for all the “anti-isms” & phobias poisoning our society.

Thank you for this brilliant cartoon sharing the truth.

Send some love to Cathy Wilcox. Screw the Zionist bullies and their opportunistic supporters. #IStandwithCathyWilcox

More record-breaking heat, floods and storms. The media holding the line- to not say ‘climate change’.
