On Sunday, we had a wonderful time in Traralgon; hearing from various candidates standing in the state election. Many common themes. Most of us want, & have a right to expect, govts to provide UBS (Universal Basic Services) etc. And sharing thoughts and ideas with each other was good for the soul

🇧🇷🇵🇸 Brazilian President Lula publicly shows solidarity with Palestine by holding its flag alongside supporters at a public event. 👏🇧🇷👏🇵🇸👏🇧🇷👏🇵🇸👏🇧🇷👏🇵🇸

“The principal purpose of Carbon Capture & Storage has never been to tackle the climate crisis. Instead, CCS serves to align public opinion & government policies with the fossil fuel industry’s plans for unrestricted expansion under the cover of “net-zero". www.nationalobserver.com/2022/04/06/o...

On Google Killing 400,000 Trees To Build Data Centers In Finland That's how things work under capitalism. The law primarily exists not to protect people or the environment, but to protect the interests of capital. www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/on-google-...

David Shoebridge calls out Jillian Segal after she admits she failed due diligence with CAM—hosts of the antisemitism summit she’s speaking at—as Shoebridge reveals CAM awarded a racist US Republican who called for Gaza to "overflow with blood” Who is she partnering with? 🚩

The blistering @franceskalbs.bsky.social UN report you won't see much in the media. Captured media/journalists complicit in Gaza genocide Story by Aleta Moriarty #ABC #BBC #CNN #NYT #Murdoch #Israel michaelwest.com.au/un-puts-medi...

What happens if the budget ignores Britain's real debt crisis? If you listen to what he will say, you'd think the national debt is our problem. It isn't. Private sector debt is three times bigger - and that is where the debt crisis will happen. youtu.be/szmZZwwtAm8?...

The 140 seats won by the student opposition against Serbia's nationalist government party will be taken up not by students, but by academics, professors & public figures from pre-chosen pool of 250 experts, selected by student plenums.

Australians, are you listening? Do you realise the Australian dictum "we don't talk politics or religion" is for the benefit of the top 1%. From the success in Serbia.

The Tech Bros want to strip-mine Australia for their AI. Govt is letting them. Monte Dwyer reckons some serious oversight is in order. #auspol #Anthropic michaelwest.com.au/anthropic-ai...

In the last 24 hours there has been much focus on the unexpected victory of Lula in Brazil. But as a signal of hope for a more participatory democratic future, Serbia is the real beacon.

"The calls for civility only ever come in response to legitimate democratic pushback – not the issues fuelling dissent."

Politicians telling us to ‘turn down the temperature’ is peak hypocrisy, @amyremeikis.bsky.social writes. "Why is it the people pointing to the fire are those being told to stop being so vocal about it?" www.deepcutnews.com/p/politician...

The ombudsman agreed that the government failed to learn the lessons of #robodebt. But it's the opposite. For #agedcare, #NDIS, #jobseeker payments & employment services, the Albanese govt has learned precisely how to apply cruel, arbitrary & dehumanizing policies to the most vulnerable. #auspol

Exactly 5 months ago my fastest-selling, most reviewed, most loved and most hated book was launched. Thank you for diving into The Biology of Collapse - don’t worry, you won’t drown. Truth floats.

The French government’s brutal response to legitimate anger is only raising the temperature in a country simmering with rage, writes a French analyst. "Protests were a predictable consequence of a population ignored by its political elite." www.deepcutnews.com/p/frances-pr...

All of this being exposed before our eyes. Will anything be done? Unlikely. They will go merrily along with their corruption while we all suffer the consequences.

It is painful to witness the images coming from the West Bank. The Israeli destructive machine stops at nothing: it uproots entire olive groves, erases years of labor, and devastates what for Palestinians represents life, history, and identity. The Zionist entity be forever dammed 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Doug Cameron:”In my view it is now clear that AUKUS is about militarising Australia in interests of the US, ensuring the grifters in defence and the arms industry are well fed. It is an act of self-harm and madness on the part of the Australian government.” pearlsandirritations.com/post/2026/10...

Why do shareholders get the rewards when workers create the wealth a company generates? Is it time to rethink just what companies are for and to require that the rewards be shared more fairly? youtu.be/15r28WaimP8?...

Is this a joke?!

To make us more resilient and self-sufficient, the move to electrification should have happened years ago. Sadly, the two major parties have steadfastly ignored the experts. They have been busy gorging on the donations from fossil fuel related companies.

Important to recognize that this is a common view in Israel; one increasingly held by younger Israelis, who are turning further hard right, like the rest of that society. Western politicians advocating a two-State solution should note that no candidate in the coming election is talking about it.

"If Wilson is genuinely concerned with fighting antisemitism, she should explain why her party has not ruled out doing preference deals with One Nation, which has run holocaust deniers for Parliament and has extensive links to neo-nazis and white supremacists.” 💥🎯👏👏👏 #springst #auspol

These guys have made some great videos in the past, but surely, this is the all-time planet-applicable GOAT.

More detail: A case of Jillian undertaking confidential soundings to pick Yaron Finkelstein's Society Advisory. ...to deliver PR support All legit 😜

Way back in 2007, Kevin Rudd framed climate change as a long-term national security/economic challenge. He won the election. Since then, the disinformation campaign by the top 1% vested interests & corrupt governments means we are ignoring our ongoing dire threats.
