If you have managed to ascribe 'legitimate concerns' to people who will march with nazis and think we have too many Indians nowadays, but offered no such extension to people seeking a little less genocide, congratulations you are officially a fucking disgrace

It’s hard not to see it as part of the system of managing things away. Nod soberly until it’s gone. Again.

Entire Aus media in a lather about mushroom woman - a verdict that is no one’s business beyond victims’ families. Meanwhile, Yuendumu coroner’s findings, 600 pages of vital commentary on policing and race, pass almost unnoticed.
