Just to reiterate, Anthony Albanese totally and unequivocally supports the murder of 185 girls at an Iranian school.

He wants to make sure you know how much he supports the bombing.

I'll continue to point out that Minns is not a very clever fellow. Just another empty vessel for other interests, almost always connected to his personal/political ambitions.

To wit: Another useful idiot.

Also, since when are we slandering ppl simply bc of their political beliefs? #NSWpol #Auspol

When Albo tells us who he is, we should believe him: a hollow apparatchik who believes in nothing but his own advancement.

Recall studies (from 70s?) showing comic book superheroes being more masculine in tough times?

And that tough times ==> people getting larger, more aggressive times?

Help me find these?

(wondering if @lindaskitka.bsky.social might especially know the papers I mean)

The Advance conference: platforming hate groups and unsavoury international guests Another right-wing conference is on our calendar. This one is titled "Evolve: because being right isn't enough."

🧡Advance has 3 international guests at its conference this weekend. One promotes conspiracies including to Alex Jones. A second conducts messaging for Steve Bannon, ran his β€œgladiator school” in the Italian monastery. The 3rd reps a vile US hate group. #Auspol

Australia is actually pretty shit house when it comes to protecting our citizens abroad. Mamdoud Habib & David Hicks in Guantanamo, Greste in Egypt, Bali 9 etc but abandoning Australian citizens in Syrian concentration camps is *disgusting*. They are Australians. Bring them home.

The only appointment being competently filled is Chester in veterans affairs.

Side note - Jonno Duniam is going to be wearing the immigration track through to the B side so if you don't know him yet, you're sure as shit going to be sick of that guy soon enough.

Shit-for-brains takes like this should disqualify you from having any kind of presence in public life, and yet for 30 years our media establishment has facilitated her rhetoric and has actively rehabilitated her image over and over and over. Why?

This is more dangerous than it is vile, and Hanson's words are putrid.

I wonder if we'll get a response from Anthony 'social cohesion' Albanese.

Angus Taylor caught fabricating immigration numbers in a shocking trainwreck on #abc730 - Taylor’s 500k claim is not only false, but

Arguably, it's been longer than that. Before we had a term for it, HoWARd was employing the cultural dead cat. I think it was around the time of AWB Bribes to Saddam, honest John was screeching about a lack of values in public schools. It completely derailed the discourse about literal govt corrupt

Every week an Australian woman is murdered by an Australian man raised on Australian values. What screening process does Angus propose to stop this ongoing and systemic domestic terrorism? 🀬 #auspol

This is actually the book cover that most (male) observers were warning about back in the day.

*Never* judge a book by it's cover.

Seriously. This is not the 'second hander' you think it is.
