Love a good folly.
Nice mossy rock waterfall grotto surrounded by topiary bunyips?

US military seems to be completely independent of politics.
I suspect it really is. They have even less fucks to give about Aus than they do about Americans.
I think boat rockers are weeded out of our politics pretty early and all we have left to vote for is the spineless besuited gutter monkeys.

Most of the software tech infrastructure can be re-coded pretty easily. A working bit of software is the ultimate tech spec. The trick is to get Good software engineers, not profitable bums on seats. This requires tech savvy leadership, which is rare as hens teeth.
US tech is monopolies and lawfare

It's a character building moment, that's for sure.
I got a line wrong, really wrong, by running straight into an immovable rock. The subsequent acrobatics were only funny because I had taken the advice of an old rider and got armour *before* The Crash.

Full moon setting over old gumtrees and a green grassy hill

Moon was nice enough to look half decent in a crappy phone photo! Dawn today.

Yeah. It's all very Project 2025.
Sadly, I think these people are too stupid to realise what they have broken and what they have unleashed in doing so.
The orchestrators, being foreign, don't really care, but you would think anyone wanting to grow old here would think a little harder.

Thanks. It did look more like an oversized paintball gun than a shottie!
I bet it's still bloody dangerous.

The Government justified a clamp down on freedom of information requests by claiming an increase in malicious and automated FOI attempts. Only problem is, there's no evidence of such a thing.

Our research showed that the number of FOI requests has not increased, but processing time has. 🔗⤵️ #auspol

So, another case of blatant dishonesty from the government.
What else are they hiding? They want to ensure you can never know, using lies.

Once you install a fake anti corruption farce, and supply weapons to a genocide, I guess there is no moral bottom.

Same in Aus too.
It's just so *easy* to steal from kids using housing and credit.
The inevitable economic collapse due to mis allocated resources can then be blamed on your enemies.

Murdoch has been doing this for decades.
Buying politicians is WAY more profitable than running the propaganda.
There's laws protecting widget manufacturers from dumping and anti trust deals, but not strategic political lies!

I hope US cits will have a more sympathetic view of the nations their military usually treats like this.
(Constant war for decades now)
Yes, it's bloody awful behaviour. Imagine a foreign bunch of thugs invade for reasons you know are made up to justify theft.
There is no honest reason for it.

It’s been hard to watch Australian National Broadcaster, ABC, being torn apart by neoconservative forces like IPA’s Tony Abbott, James Paterson, Advance, Jillian Segal’s Israel Regime, Atlas, Heritage Foundation network of networks behind the Trump Regime US.

Their Western Civilisation makeover.

The ABC goes to Hungary: the culture war battle between "Christianity" and "woke" is a con - The AIM Network Some of the most dangerous people in the world right now are those normalising and sanitising fascistic politics. It was not just in the banal [...]

Lucy Hamilton: “Some of the most dangerous people in world right now are those normalising and sanitising fascistic politics. It can be found at ABC, including on Radio National lifestyle programming.”

Murdoch rags are desperately trying to pin this on Dems to hide the real reasons for the shutdown.
There's no credible way they can do this, but bullshit is their business!

US$ losing value fast as the nation is demolished by criminals.
Murdoch laughing his arse off.

If we had a functional legal system, the Murdoch rags would be sued for gross misinformation causing human loss of life and economic loss. LibLab gronks too.
The denial propaganda is by folks that know damn well the science is sound.

I think it's the same as climate change policy. Recognition would harm the wealth of VIPs.
The myth that democracy prevents this sort of thing should be dead now. LibLab, the brands, is treacherous to Aus just like Trump is treacherous to the US.
The Z and P25 conspiracies need to be addressed.

This imbecile must have hit his head on a boat as a small child and this has dominated the mental vacuum ever since.
How to solve unemployment, poverty, IR issues, energy policy, climate change...
Tony: "Boats. Gotta stop em" (munch, munch)

"They was commin right at us!
We had no choice but to mag-dump a bunch of kids"

If it's good enough for the old Nazis, it's good enough for modern times.
"Every accusation is a confession" is one of their few common defining traits of the P2025 arseholes.

Complaining about kids playground noise just proves you are a really shit human being.

Wtf sort of weapon is that?
Is it for "non lethal" ammo or just large bore stopping power?
(Non US person here, not used to seeing anyone armed in public!)

Yep. Orchestrated mass control.

How can the Law be phrased to remove their influence?
I feel that they are leveraging "free speech" way too destructively to be allowed to continue, yet real freedom is kinda important.
How do we legally distinguish between rant rights and costly foreign propaganda?

If he would only smear shit all over his face like Matt Canavan so folks *know* they're looking at comedy.
Suits, alas, make idiots seem credible, although due to exposure, I check my wallet when fancy suits are nearby.

Why is he still being reported?
Is he still sucking the Aus taxpayer teat, or are our media hard up for colonial fuckwits to quote?

The scope of this headline has a stench ...

Were it only American support lacking - it is global condemnation, as it should be for GENOCIDE

Australian news papers unable to boldly tell the truth, in an age where self-censorship fits the current hidden govt agenda with Segall and "Schultz"

Aus media will mercilessly judge and deride any poor folks, but simply can't bring themselves to tell the truth about Israel.
Utterly useless as a source of info, and zero ethics (-ve, arguably).
Same pricks are trying to justify war with China atm and fostering WW3.

Never forget.

The media is working very hard to make sure folks never know this, nor the origins, nor military power of Hamas.
The outrage over Oct 7 is never directed at the many, many IDF murders, because it has nothing to do with actual outrage.
It was always part of the propaganda used to justify sadism.
