Australia Day is such bullshit. NSW proclamation day at best. At worst a celebration of the crimes of colonisation.
If you have to acknowledge that the day is a source of pain for many, thatโs a damn good sign itโs a shit day to have as your national day.

Mourning Bondi. Australia's hierarchy of grief - Michael West
Australia suffers from selective empathy. And nowhere is that clearer than in the way our political and media class decide who can mourn.
"Australia does not suffer from a lack of empathy. It suffers from selective empathy. .. nowhere is that clearer than in the way our political and media class decide who is allowed to mourn"

The fact that Isaac Herzog has to be snuck into Australia tells you that Alboโs government is willing to burn political capital to get him here.
Why?
Because ๐ฎ๐ฑ & ๐บ๐ธ tell ๐ฆ๐บ what ๐ฆ๐บ must do.

Why would anyone be a member of the Australian Labor Party? It now answers solely to the US and Israel and represents their interests. It stopped representing fair minded Australians a long time ago. For more than 2 years it has supported genocide through silence/inaction. We are governed by evil.

Labor is passing laws that are more extreme than what Trump has attempted, on immigration and speech, largely at the behest of the media. But if Trump tried to do it, the same outlets would say they were bad, fascistic overreach. Insanely dumb country.

How can that happen when the ALP and LNP provide unwavering support for the US and Israel? Our craven politicians are sycophants of the 2 most evil regimes on the planet.

Albanese and the ALP wholeheartedly support the genocide carried out by the terrorist State of Israel, which is entering its 3rd year. They act in the interests of Israel above those of humanity and decency. No doubt protests against this genocidal psychopath will be banned, as Zionists rule.

The Greens cannot support laws that could be weaponised to shut down legitimate political protest.
Labor must make it crystal clear that criticism of Israelโs actions, just like those of Russia, China or Australia will not be criminalised.

Israeli president Isaac Herzog's visit a good thing' despite backlash from Labor party members
Follow updates live
It's "culturally unsafe" to have a Palestinian Aus author advocate against the systematic slaughter of hundreds of thousands of her people, but it's
"a good thing" for the president of apartheid Israel, which has committed daily massacres and mass starvation for 2yrs, to visit us. Unbearably racist.

Add to that why are we inviting the President of a terrorist State carrying out a genocide? We are governed by truly toxic people.
