Australian politics: Wear a t-shirt, watch the news cycle get hijacked for a week.

How “Joy Division” is antisemitic I don’t know. The actual joy division women were not Jewish.

The ICE Shooter’s Motive Joshua Jahn's friends speak

“Their accounts paint the picture of someone with a vaguely libertarian bent who despised both major parties and politicians generally (including Trump) but who didn’t engage with politics beyond that. He preferred edgy humor, video games and the message board 4chan”

Seriously, I didn’t get the joke for a full 2 minutes. I was thinking “what the hell is this” then it clicked. Alanah’s got serious acting chops & perfect comic timing.

That article has been changed to include the case engravings a definitive symbols of the Groyper movement. The original version only mentions Pepe the Frog. I agree the engravings are more indicative of the shooter being a Groyper & not Antifa but this article cannot be used as a trusted source.

Actor Mandy Patinkin’s plea for Jews to consider how what Netanyahu’s Israeli government is doing to Gaza is not just harming Palestinians and killing kids — but also endangering Jews across the globe.

That’s basically GTA Online.

You know what works better than thoughts and prayers? A functioning government.

We already know the government is building a surveillance state by stealth & has been for 2 decades. The problem is Australians happily accommodated it by freely uploading our lives to social media & acquiescing to every piece of draconian “anti-terrorism” legislation.

Sheridan the dumb fk doesn’t know that Ukraine’s “swarming drones” are DJI & made in China!

"Back in the early 1950s, Germans who lived through the Nazi era warned Chicago journalist Milton Mayer that they had “become used to being governed by surprise” and told him how each step toward Hitler’s eventual tyranny was incremental." www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...

I agree and the Greens are now in the strongest position to ensure that accountability. This is why they need to act seriously and leave the cheap political point scoring to the irrelevant LNP.

Senator why go for the cheap political point that undermines your valid point about public accountability? The Greens are basically the opposition now the LNP is so weak. Act like it! We need a mature discussion about AUKUS & the viable alternatives. Smart arse digs at the agency achieves nothing.

Credibly defending ourselves, while not threatening our neighbours, without being dominated by the US or any other power is well within our capabilities. We need to overcome the cultural cringe that keeps us holding desperately to a great and powerful ‘friend’.

The PRC is normalizing the situation with Taiwan. However, every attempt is thwarted by the US. China has conducted military exercises in the Strait for decades & is almost entirely directed at the US not Taiwan. China’s message is not “we’ll take Taiwan by force”. It’s “US stay out of our affairs”.

You’re absolutely correct Senator so please prosecute the case against AUKUS seriously & respectfully. Grandstanding & political point scoring won’t achieve anything. We need a sensible debate proposing serious alternatives such as UAVs, long range missiles & enhanced cyber capabilities.

The idea that China would invade Taiwan without provocation is ludicrous & fundamentally misunderstands China’s reunification goals. The primary of which, is “peaceful”. Taking Taiwan unilaterally by force would defeat that purpose & seriously threaten the legitimacy & stability of the CCP.

How do you not mention @skillup.bsky.social’s review? It almost singlehandedly destroyed what little chance Veilgaurd had of success. His astute summation of the dialogue sounding like “HR was in the room” was game review gold.

Their core problem of course, is the Liberal party have no idea who they are

They sincerely don't

All their bluff and bullshit about "our values" and "broad church" obscures the fact that they're bitterly divided & will end up like the Victorian branch - riven by years of disputes in opposition

The only thing the Liberal Party stands for is the transfer of public money into private hands. From its inception, the party’s only purpose was to oppose the labour movement & the Labor Party. Talk about family values & aspirations is complete bullshit rendered meaningless by their every action.

This moment when the penny drops that trying to implement bathroom bans is an impossibility for the former Tory Chief Secretary Simon Clarke is delicious.

If Jesus had focused more on kitchen table issues and less on unpopular outcasts like lepers and prostitutes, he might have won more support from white working-class Judeans.
