I’ve lived as a female for almost 80 years and have lived and worked in multicultural environments including education in schools and then as a counsellor and manager of a women’s counselling centre and a refuge. I have lived evidence and experience and don’t need to read a book by a man on this.

Albanese declares he has β€˜nothing but contempt’ for ISIS brides seeking return The opposition said not all Australians were entitled to receive a passport, calling for the government to β€œshut the door” on their attempted return.

Disgusting attitude of Albo. He has no understanding of the control exercised over women, let alone children, within this culture. The Anglo culture is bad enough.

She chooses the target of hate according to her flavour of the month. She is so full of hate and bile it shows in her face and eyes and I’m sure must be erupting inside her body. She must be brought to account for her vilification of other human beings.

There must be an incredible loss of a workforce in the USA. Imagine the huge cost of the abuse of these workers and the k infrastructure set up for this abuse.

Jen and I mourn the loss of Rev. Jesse Jackson, one of America's greatest civil rights champions.

His footprints are found in every modern movement for justice.

Abbott has been a force in the destruction of the Liberal Party. He is self described spawn of Howard and Bronwyn Bishop who are foundational to its demise. He must want to completely finish the job.

Every word from Trumps mouth is a lie. He must have been trained from babyhood to deny everything and tell lies.

Jesse Jackson was a champion for civil rights, economic justice, and world peace.

I have always remembered his moving call for moral clarity at the 1988 DNC.

When anti anything that is organised to assist Australians then anti becomes the policy of these clowns.

China’s now building subs faster than the US - hardly news that’ll encourage the US to hand over sovereign control of some of its subs, even to an ally as obsequiously compliant as Australia. Still, @albomp.bsky.social and Richard Marles blithely press on with #AUKUS πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. #auspol

As can be seen in the USA there is a push to disenfranchise women from voting and control over their bodies. The extreme is the Taliban and even in Australia the ongoing murder if women by men who think they own them- 7 already in 6 weeks. No these women have been socialised as male property.

This shows no understanding of the culture of women and children being regarded as property which was there in Anglo European culture also and with remnants remaining-choice is not there for women. As for suicide bombers a child has no choice.inadequate understanding of coercive control

Australia's #inequality is growing, but not yet as bad as the UK or US.

There are two ways forward, says @garyseconomics.bsky.social:
tax billionaires or blame immigrants.

It's billionaires with their untaxed wealth who are funding anti-immigrant propaganda. #auspol

Even members of the same family do not share the same values. I certainly do not share the same values as Angus or Pauline. I believe in acceptance of people from diverse backgrounds which was demonstrated by my parents always growing up in multicultural Illawarra.

These women and their children would have been subjects of coercive control by their terrorist partners. However I couldn’t say the same for the IDF who engaged in genocide and cold blooded murder

Farage contributed to Britain’s demise with his Brexit rhetoric. He is not a good human being and Britain would be most unwise to give him power.

Anthony Albanese's old friend and recent dinner companion President Isaac Herzog has been a big advocate of this #EthnicCleansing of the #WestBank.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

Our priorities are so fucked.

Israels continues its annexation of the occupied West Bank.

So whats the UK govt doing? Ending trade? Imposing sanctions on the Israeli govt & economy? Stopping all military assistance? Of course not. It says it opposes the annexation but it does nothing to stop it.
