So The Age has churned out "special series" on exclusive men's clubs, then private golf clubs, now restaurant tycoons. All suitably fawning over supposed powerful elites. Tell you what, why not just save time and do one called "Rich arseholes, and why we suck up to them".๐

The LNP, after drifting further to the right following the Morrison defeat by listening to Abbott, Credlin & the Sky โNewsโ bubble with Dutton as leader get a smashing at the ballot box & their solution is to do the same thing all over again. Bold strategy Cotton, letโs see if it pays off #auspol

I donโt think the Liberals will win going full MAGA-anti-immigration. Australia has compulsory voting which buttresses against extremism. However, they will and already are doing a huge amount of damage to the migrant community in the meantime, and everyone should care about that, including media.

We cannot ignore what we can see
with our own eyes.
This was state violence.
And the blame lies with the NSW Labor government for attempting to shut down legitimate protest, and the federal Labor government who invited the head of a state committing
genocide to our shores.
Shame on Labor.
Shame on the NSW Police. The Greens remain in solidarity with the thousands of peaceful protesters who turned out across the country yesterday to say Australia stands
against genocide.
Photo:
The footage out of Sydney overnight is
abhorrent. Peaceful protesters set upon by an army of police, punches thrown at people with raised hands, people
praying ripped from their knees. Is this violence the social cohesion that
Labor wanted?

Excellent words, great article. Social cohesion isnโt a buzz word, itโs a political tactic.
โIf you are othered by powerful groups, you become the victim of cohesion, not the beneficiary; what you get from social cohesion is a punch from an armed official of the state, not protection.โ

Assistant police commissioner Peter McKenna: "It was really quite precarious at times for our officers who were significantly outnumbered by the protesters and the people who wanted to act in a violent and offensive manner."

Iโd wager so. Sometimes apples donโt fall that far from colonial trees.
Also the fact that the Murdoch media and facebook have rotted their brains, which Iโm sure is another thing we have in common sadly.

The NSW cops are being so overtly aggressive it would almost seem like they were under orders to make sure the protest became violent.

Disgusting behaviour by the NSW police. I havenโt been this ashamed to be an Australian since the No To The Voice campaign winning. Which isnโt that long ago, but still. @albomp.bsky.social is the most disappointing PM Iโve seen in my 45 years on this planet.

BREAKING: New Image that Epstein sent himself confirms that in 2015, Epstein went to dinner with Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk and Peter Thiel.
Why the hell was he invited to dinner with these three men, being that he basically plead guilty to being a p-do in 2008?

"Labor still has a chance to shape the future, and history wonโt look back to discuss whether or not modern Labor was โmoderateโ or โcentristโ enough. It will judge it on whether it met the moment and the times. The verdict from those flocking to disruptors is that no, it is not."
