What is your primary goal?

Ok make those exceptions. My point was to somehow either force or at least incentivise some actual real world experience. Looking at history, many great leaders first had lives and careers and then become politicians. Actually even true of many of the excellent independents we have now.

This is the problem with most of our pollies now. Dutton was basically the same (in this regard). There really should be a minimum 10 years working in the real world requirement for anyone aspiring to be a cabinet minister or PM.

The Rich, The Powerful, The Cowardly We are witnessing media companies, journalists and billionaires bowing down to Trump and his hostile takeoverโ€”seeking access, favors and security. They are doing us a favor.

โ€œCount me among the proud and grateful opposition. May our community grow stronger and stronger.โ€

This is how I concluded todayโ€™s essay. I hope youโ€™ll consider subscribing to my America, America at a time when independent media has never been more important.

100 / 100 to Albo for at least being consistent about one thing โ€” the lack of any backbone or the courage of his convictions to call out Israel for war crimes. Instead all he has is this tokenistic bullshit. Anti-semitism and Islamophobia should be treated equally seriously. Neither is acceptable!

Same vibes here! The comparison with last month is killing me so far!

lol ok bro. I assume youโ€™re also one of those people supporting the Russian invasion of Ukraine because Putin is also innocent until proven guilty? What about Adolf? At what point before or during WW2 would you have decided this has maybe gone too far? Guessing neverโ€ฆ

08.12.2024 08:50 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

No. They should not. But at this point itโ€™s like those people whoโ€™re still arguing that this is not โ€œtechnicallyโ€ genocide so itโ€™s all goodโ€ฆ

Do you have eyes? I see some tens and tens of thousands of people being blown up in the name of โ€œself defenseโ€ and itโ€™s pretty damn obvious.

08.12.2024 02:35 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Ok so how many tens of thousands of additional innocents would you like murdered before you think it would be appropriate to hold the person in charge accountable? Or do Palestinians not count as people as far as youโ€™re concerned? Whether convicted or not, he is clearly a war criminal.

How long are we going to keep subsidising these palaces of privilege?

Absolute garbage propaganda. Please donโ€™t sink to the same level as everyone in the established media. You can do better! We shouldnโ€™t be quoting war criminals that are literally required to be arrested if they enter our country.

There is only one appropriate choice. He wonโ€™t need to pretend either.

As if there wasnโ€™t enough evidence already that the cost and timelines even upfront are just not feasible for Australia, let alone the cost of ongoing generation being higher than renewables, hereโ€™s yet another data point on why nuclear doesnโ€™t make sense for us! We have so many better options.

As leaders around the world give in to and become part of a moral and ethical decay, and as charlatans and liars gain power, it is more important than ever for good people to act and become active and engaged any way they can to counter this. The very concept of democracy is under siege ๐Ÿšจ ๐Ÿšจ ๐Ÿšจ

Twenty private schools with wealthiest parents received $130m total in Australian public funds in 2023 Data comes as education minister remains stalled in negotiations with states and territories over contributions to Schooling Resource Standard

As you read this appalling data, please remember that every public school in Australia, bar a handful in ACT, is underfunded. Also remember that public schools educate the vast majority of our poorest & neediest kids, who are the most expensive to teach. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

But how we do stop Bluesky from becoming a cesspool of the same BS if it does achieve critical mass? Most social networks started out with good vibes and great interactions and then devolved into just the same old shit or never got critical mass.

Nah man. Weโ€™re going to enforce this. We canโ€™t have him attempting to enter Aus! Although if Dutton wins next year heโ€™ll roll out the red carpet for this rapist criminal.

โ€˜We learned the hard wayโ€™: Samoa remembers a deadly measles outbreak and a visit from RFK Jr A few months before the outbreak in 2019, Kennedy travelled to Samoa and met with anti-vaccine figures, contributing to what health experts claim was a โ€˜significant disinformation campaignโ€™

Yeah but I hope the people running @bsky.app donโ€™t get caught up in just pushing user numbers up as the main metric. Of course they need a critical mass of users for it to work but we really need a genuine twitter replacement with good vibes and enough interesting people, with less propaganda!

lol would be even better if we added a few trillion dollars to it from resource royalties. There is no reason this shouldnโ€™t be the worldโ€™s largest sovereign wealth fund. Except for government incompetence.

Running a business that works for you and your lifestyle is underrated. So are ideas. You can build a business in almost any area using what you know best and have a sustainable business that is profitable, enjoyable and works for you. More people should try it.
