My article on AUKUS.
AUKUS is about madness, militarism and money. Turning Australia into a US military base, sacrificing our sovereignty, and enriching retired politicians, military and public servants while battlers struggle to put food on the table
Wow. I never thought I could get ok with conversations within conversations revealing truths because that shit is confusing. But these two beautiful people (or maybe more, I've only seen the first half) NAIL IT.

The most effective thing the dark has ever done, is to corrupt the meaning of the word "forgiveness".
If this resonates for you, please tell me what it means to you.
For Americans struggling to get through Monday, I'm here with you at 2am, trying to get my anxious brain to stop worrying about you all.
This aussie is lying awake hoping and praying (take whichever you prefer) for you all to become free and safe, like you've never yet been.

The viral footage had the wearer of the glasses describe the 'discrimination' he faces as people ran away from him at his local park. chaser.com.au/general-news...
RJ Mitte was a fierce advocate for disability justice.
He had cerebral palsy and his disability was a central part of his character on Breaking Bad.
Despite the shows success, Mitte lost most of his earnings due to an unscrupulous business manager.
The “crip tax” is real.
RJ Mitte, like every disabled person, should have been given all the supported needed to live his best life.
Instead he found himself living in a country where disabled people struggle to survive financially and are treated as having no value unless they are "productive". A country that plans to
LIVE STREAM the execution of a disabled man. Where the meagre supports that exist are being stripped away and the nation is heading down the same path as Nazi Germany, where disabled people were some of the first in concentration camps.
Now I don't know what the motication was for RJ Mitte. But
You are not defined by your worst decision, biggest mistake or most embarrassing day.
You’re more than your health issues, job status or ability to produce for capitalism.
We’re all doing our best to survive… and you are worth it just as you are.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-ZQ... we need to hold these corporations accountable for the worldwide harm they have been doing for years.
We also, dare I say, need to take public ownership of food and water to ensure a fair distribution in the coming shortages. We WERE producing much more than needed
so we SHOULD be able to weather this without anyone dying of starvation in the "richest country in the world". But not if we allow the status quo of profiteering corporations to continue controlling our vital resources.

Anyone who has been shocked and surprised by the Trump regime's actions in the last 2 years:
There are probably people you know who were not surprised at all and tried to warn you. Please go and find them and ask them what they are doing to prepare for a potentially stolen election.
Then go vote.
Who decides how many "servings" per packet? I swear someone is just using a random number generator for even numbers between 2 and 12.
Is this just an aussie thing?
Just ate the tiniest packet of biscuits claiming to contain 4 servings. It's all gone now.
If everyone had food, water, housing, education and healthcare … we would all be better off.
When basic needs are met, people flourish.
Health and happiness improves.
We could easily provide for everyone by demanding the billionaire class pay their fair share.
"self identifying as mainstream media, what message do I not want to hear?"
Well shit Sarah, where do I start? Nice of you to self identify with the corporate media though, as if I couldn't tell. You know the ABC used to be actual journalists, right?

WOWSERS. I had a sense that the ABC, once a trusted source of news in Australia, had been corrupted. But just listen to how this woman interrupts and uses adversarial questions. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwZl... wtf happened ABC? (rhetorical...they got raided and subjected)
Question for all my fellow autists: are we lucky because we can tell how messed up society is and dream of something better? Or are we the cursed canary in the coal mine here?
(my answer to this question is "both"..... I'm just curious what you all think)
Feeling hopeful about Australian politics for the first time in a long time. It seems like The Greens are finally working out how to speak to a wider audience about how they can solve real problems. #AusPolwww.youtube.com/watch?v=gOwZ...

I don’t believe the U.S. taxpayer should continue to arm Netanyahu’s government with deadly military equipment.
I believe Netanyahu is a war criminal and that his government has committed genocide in Gaza.
This doesn't make me antisemitic. (I’m Jewish, by the way.)
PabloReports: Donald Trump says we’re in a golden age. Do you agree?
Frost: Yeah, if you’re a billionaire, you’re in the golden age. They’re taking all of our money and giving it to them.
This is everything Ed Sheeran needs to read to understand why his decision is wrong. And quite frankly ANYONE with a platform who isn't speaking out yet. We see you there, trying not to be noticed, you cowards.
The thing is, it's not even controversial to say that a Genocide is happening in Palestine. The UN has issued a report confirming this. When the massacre started, it was somewhat controversial but at this point, it's a fact. Opinions are not facts, regardless of what the opinionated would say.
Not so much "pro-prostitution" More pro exploitation and trafficking.
Sex work is real work and sex workers should be protected.
Kraft on the other hand, should be in jail along with at least 99% of all billionaires.
All of Ed Sheeran’s opening acts and his touring band have dropped out of the remaining dates of his ‘Loop’ tour in solidarity with Palestine and Macklemore.
NFL owners, led by Robert Kraft, banded together to blackball Macklemore over a “Free Palestine’ chant.
Meanwhile, raging antisemite and Hitler lover Kanye West is touring the same stadiums.
This was never about antisemitism
www.sportspolitika.news/p/macklemore...
New: Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran.
Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.
