It feels like far too much ink is spilled on the former and we constantly let them off the hook on the later because they are “better than the other lot”

IDK but I think politicians should be allowed to change opinions/plans when facts/circumstances change. And they should be forced to comment on hypotheticals and possibilities. But they should have to follow the rules, tell the truth, be true to expressed values & try to make things actually better

We’re living in a generation of rage‑media-division sells.

I can be offended by Jan 26 & still love my country.

I’m tired of Aboriginal ppl being painted as enemies of the country for exercising our right to protest.

This narrative doesn’t just divide us; it normalises hate towards us.

We built an illness system, not a health system. And we’re paying for it Australia’s health system is beginning to resemble the US. We must change course

This is a good short piece that raises some serious issues but I take exception to "we’ve let the foxes run the henhouse. Policy-making is dominated by the medical profession..."
At it's heart Australia has a fee for service system that privileges inpatient care episodes...that's the original sin

Chiropractors have been banned again from manipulating babies’ spines. Here’s what the evidence actually says A large survey found many Australians take their young child to see a chiropractor, and most are happy with the results. But is it safe?

Good news follow up though

We need to make people reflexively assume if it’s AI it’s not true. Somehow make it a baseline assumption. If it was real they would have real world “proof” if they have to get a computer to say it = it’s a lie

(I know actors and cartoons exist but roll with me here)
