This is becoming a common pattern worldwide and if you're wondering it's because facism and patriarchy are twins.

Incredible gender difference in voting intention in Brazil.

As someone who covered Robodebt in part, it's clear nothing has really changed. Worse: the politics of federal Labor on social security are baffling. We keep hearing about how people have "lost trust in institutions". Wiping these debts seem a simple answer to help. Instead, they rewrote the rules.

This book proposes a different thesis: that the EU’s current incarnation is not a deviation from a previously positive path, nor from its founders’ intentions, but the culmination of a project that was elitist, anti-democratic and authoritarian from its inception.

There was the person who went to Poland as a child and came back wondering how anyone could do such things, then went and did it himself saying now he understands how. Some governments have worked hard to prevent global cooperation on genocide prevention, particularly Israel and the USA.

i would like to think they were just avoiding accountability. now i think it's a bit more dangerous, they honestly think it's only the bullet that kills. it's much easier to join the kill-chain off you think you're only making pancakes.

Demonstrations were hijacked by rioters backed by the US and ‘Israeli’ terrorist regimes, who incited vandalism and chaos. Of the 3,117 deaths, 2,427 were civilians and members of security forces. Many were killed by foreign terrorist groups, which western governments & media falsely blamed on Iran.

"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

We condemn the political threats made by Opposition Leader Jess Wilson on Sunday and reject her misleading connection between protest of Israel’s genocide and the horrific Bondi attack. Protesting a livestreamed genocide is not antisemitic. Our release: www.jewishcouncil.com.au/2026/10/jewi...

"'Social and economic exclusion often becomes civic exclusion – and civic exhaustion' he said. People are too tired and busy trying to keep their heads above water that they don’t have the time or energy to speak up about issues and hold those in power to account." That's sadly the aim. #AusPol

Instead of the “would you like to round up and donate…” screen on the self serve checkouts, there should be a button you can push to drop the CEO into a tank of water.

Just went to see NAZA. "My role was technical." "Just trust the system". Two awkward "I was just following orders" quotes with a strong Nazi vibe. Then some explicitly genocidal talk: "It's so insanely fun." Just horrific.

The Palestinian “protestor” Albanese’s staff called the police on was grief-stricken and concerned about family members in Gaza. She felt powerless at the lack of response. I’m sure this can be verified.

He is lying. He is gaslighting us again. And NO ONE challenges him to his face.
