Nobel Peace Prize winner Maria Corina Machado has heaped praise on Benjamin Netanyahu's "resolute actions" & condemned Venezuela's socialist president Nicolás Maduro as a "terrorist."
The Nobel Committee is nothing more than a front for the oil lobby readying public opinion for a right-wing coup...

They just murdered another six people in the Caribbean.
They didn’t even know the names of the people they just blew up.
Obviously there is no evidence of drug trafficking.
They could board the boats.
But no.
They murder people without any due process and then they celebrate their heinous acts.

So then we all (the locals kids) went and got 27MHz CB radios and soon had our own network across Greensborough, Montmorency, Eltham etc) Channel 18, on 27MHz CB 'the Greensborough' channel.
When we got cut off we kids found a way around it. That was the 1980s and 90s. Social media ban? lmfao.

Think we need to ensure OUR BOM that has been struggling funding cuts and climate pressure for years is supported in serving US and learns to consult about how they communicate. #auspol

We need to be building MORE public housing NOT tearing it down.

'Til the landslide brought me down
A parable in two parties
It’s very clear that Labor UK and Australian governments have moved far right. You can no longer tell the difference between the party of Labor vs party of capital.
Labor no longer serves workers, nor has Labor a progressive or socialist agenda. tdunlop.substack.com/p/til-the-la...

All this time, no-one realised just how ephemeral were the silk ties holding democratic institutions up, even during a world war against fascism they thought that they had to fight to get it
Turns out it needed just a few Neoliberal nonsenses tossed around for a few years, then they just walked in

That is sad. I think this is less about him though, and more about how widespread and normalised Zionism is here.

Yep. When I left Murdoch and became a (then) unemployed freelancer, yes, I went on 'the dole' for a while.
I had to sign up for a Sarina Russo job agency and meet the mutual obligations crap. So we saw an opportunity to both 'flip the script' and continue being a journo.

End all funding every single private employment services provider.
Salt the earth so those in change of them never get any public money ever again - run them out of the country.
Get rid of mutual obligations
Bring back the CES
Raise the fricken rate
Ain’t hard.

They Tell Us To Fear Muslims While The US Empire Terrorizes The World
Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):
They Tell Us To Fear Muslims While The US Empire Terrorizes The World
The empire we live under is everything we’re trained to fear. Our own rulers are the murderers. Our own rulers are the terrorists. Our own rulers are the tyrants. Our rulers are the problem.
