Ugly tangled web

Could One Nation suddenly do better with an articulate, leader? Some may be considering this very question.

Enemies within. Today’s Age cartoon

Horrifying! Unbelievable

When you drag a woman by the hair, beat her and force her to kiss your flag, that’s how you tell the world you are the Good Guys

Two-star major general irony. Today’s Age cartoon.

Where is the opposition? Where are the people willing to fight back?

Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

One of my favorite moments in the history of free speech: Larry Flynt publishing a satirical Campari ad featuring Jerry Falwell Sr. as an incestuous drunk who first had sex with his mother in an outhouse. Falwell sued. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court found that satire is protected speech.

Creepy and low conduct. Shame Meta shame

Single frame. Title: Exodus. Trail of humanity bearing their belongings streams from distant left to foreground right, across wasteland with smoke puffs in the distance. Road sign mid-way pointing in both directions of the human procession: GENOCIDE ; GENOCIDE.

The march.

Why is this immigrant still in Australia, @albomp.bsky.social?

Two frames. Top: March of black-clad ultra nationalists with Aussie flags, placards saying “IMMIGRANTS GO HOME” “AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE” “TOO MANY INDIANS”, facing lone reporter who says, “But aren’t you all descendants of migrants?” Lower frame, same scene with marchers with fists raised replying,”DON’T SAY THAT, BECAUSE IT IRRITATES ME…”

Sore point.
My @smh @theage cartoon.

Four frames. Title: Round and round table. Three people along table with paper and pencil. 1. Guy on left: “Right. We really need to do something about intergenerational wealth inequality.” Woman in middle: “Yes! Well for starters we could fund education equitably.” 2. Guy on right: “Not if it means taking anything away from private schools!” First guy: “ok. Then we should make housing more affordable…” Woman: “Not if it reduces the return on my investment!” 3. First guy: “Well, at least we should tax mining resources properly for health, childcare, aged care…” Guy on right: “But if we tax them, they’ll go elsewhere (and stop donating to us)!” 4. First guy: “So, what do you propose we do about intergenerational wealth inequality?” Woman: “The young people are resourceful. They’ll think of something.” First guy has put question mark on his paper; woman has scribbled on hers; third person screws up his paper.

Round and round.

Palestine wouldn’t have many more hospitals left for yet another Israeli ″⁣tragic mishap″⁣ to occur would they?
John Cain, McCrae @theage letters

Constant discussion of a meeting between Donald Trump and Anthony Albanese is nonsensical. Our PM is right to stay as far from the Oval Office as possible for as long as he can. Genuflecting to a peacock who changes his mind every few minutes is pointless.

How many Americans don’t bother to vote??

Single frame. Netanyahu looking at himself in the bathroom mirror, pointing the finger. Reflection says, “YOU’RE A WEAK POLITICIAN WHO BETRAYED ISRAEL AND ABANDONED THE WORLD’S JEWS.”

Any help for the heavily burdened families with young children and enormous mortgages who were fleeced by the banks during this last ghastly stage of interest hikes??? Banks are swimming in money sucked out of the pockets of these hard hit families

Foreign-owned gas corporations are getting over half the gas they export from Australia for FREE.

The gas industry is ripping Australians off, and our governments are letting them.
