Continued escalation of house prices is at crisis point in many countries. Wage earners enslaved by their mortgages. Banks earning interest on money they never had in the first place. Policy settings yet again encouraging the siphoning of money from the workers to the corporate sector.

Isn't it funny how the same people that keep saying "Get over it he won," have absolutely lost their shit that someone won a Mayoral race in a city they don't even live in?

AI and robotics under the wing of Elon Musk 🤔 I have visions of a mercenary robotic army. A dystopian army of Musketeers.

So true. But would be nice to see democrats not only gain power but maintain it for decades cos people feel genuinely content with their lives.

Was a truly invigorating day. Dick Cheney dies. Zohran Mamdani is delivered.

Democrats pay attention. You may well regain power now the voters have seen the toxic nature of Trumpism. But delivering nothing beyond the status quo is not what people want. People are demanding meaningful change. Enlightened politicians like Mamdani will deliver that change.

We haven’t only just seen a brazen attempt to wind back transparency from this Gov, it’s been much more insidious than that. And it’s eroding trust, building community frustration & weakening our democracy. #politas #auspol

Also worth noting that sometimes, the cheapness of renewable energy just helps pad out the profits of utilities and other corporations instead of flowing through to consumers

Disinformation is obvs part of it but it's worth noting a lack of regulation of corporations too1

Simon Holmes à Court has launched a new fundraiser - ‘The Canavan Climate Trust’ - by cataloguing all the “climate-denying” nonsense from the Nats over the last few weeks, & “every dollar donated” is going to be put towards Ads highlighting their “most unhinged comments”👏💥 #Abc

Your point is logical and applies to all religions. There is no logical basis for an individual’s religious beliefs. This disregard for critical thinking provides a fertile ground for the proliferation of religious sects.

Wild how a poor person buying a $1 can of soda with food stamps sends you into a moral panic but not billionaires writing off private jets. Your outrage is as cheap as that soda.

A word to the douchebags:
Food stamps don't keep people from going without mocktails. They keep people from starving.

"I’ve been to arms fairs where companies like Elbit sell their weapons as 'battle tested' on people in Gaza, Lebanon and Yemen. They show snuff videos as a sales pitch to the Australian Government"

Oh she so went there 🤭🤣🐥

Is it going to be a ballroom? Or a Vegas style casino?

I think he made his position perfectly clear.

A free campaign ad for Mamdani.

So incredibly delusional.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.
