Remember how Republicans accused Obama’s healthcare plan of having “death panels”. Turns out it was their private “healthcare” 😬 corporations that were intentionally killing people’s grandparents.

So the gist here seems to be that two political advisors in Netanyahu’s inner circle have a comms business and are working to encourage far right politics in Europe & steer economic dealings at national levels. In consort with Axel Springer (Germany’s Murdoch) & with tech fash.

1/ Kaum ein Tag, an dem Springer zuletzt nicht an Kanzler Merz sägt, Wüst wie Günther als mutmaßliche Königsmörder des Konservativen isoliert & Spahn weiter gepusht wird. Journalismus ist das nicht – Bambi für Ronzheimer hin, Freiheits-Gerede von Döpfner her. Worum geht’s dann?

Dammit. In concert with. Lol. Spent so much time on google translate and trying to exhume long distant German lessons that I lost my English 🙄😂

AIPAC acting all class over on Boomerbook. 😬 Apparently people objecting to genocide are the bad guys 🙄 Not sure what this was doing in my feed.

Well will you look at that. The group supposedly run by a John Grimwade (which seems to have people auditing media & commerce so they can flag anything annoying the pro-Israel far right) is setting up a campaign against ABC’s Raf Epstein. #Auspol

International #Networks of #Fascism, like #AtlasNetwork, are well documented. Please follow @jeremywalker.bsky.social and @lucyham.bsky.social for much more information.

I'm going to try to do this cleanly. Today's right wing governments are networked to each other. Those networks are well-documented. You can read about them in books. Following the elections in one node of that network is good practice for understanding the U.S. node.

As @thejuicemedia.com illustrates coherently, the protests around the world are echoing each other because multinational plutocrats have screwed us over in almost the same ways, and tried to crush our ability to protest it. Watch & share. #Auspol Me glaring at the “neoliberal thought collective”

the Juice Media@thejuicemedia.com

The Government™ has made an ad about all these protests happening around the world, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

Folks will recall Sen David Pocock asking how Yaron Finkelstein's firm - Society Advisory - was awarded a contract by Jillian Segal's office. This was answer.

For Africa, climate change is not about the future. It's about now. Our crops failing, our lakes shrinking, our people displaced — while boardrooms thousands of miles away count record profits. We don't have a climate problem. We have a justice problem. #ClimateJustice

"Australia is facing a truly frightening moment. We see the Silencing Squad all around us. Will we allow the Make Muslims Hated Mob do to Australia what they have done to the UK?" One key Silencing Squad protagonist is Jillian Segal, the PM's Special Envoy for the Israel Lobby. #auspol

My hope was in giving nicknames to the two main strategies that license fascistic crime by Israel (and oil, land theft), people might better be able to see them in action? What do you think?

Can’t stress how important @lucyham.bsky.social work is

Lucy Hamilton@lucyham.bsky.social

It has taken decades of work and funding to make Islamophobia almost the last tolerated bigotry. It’s unutterably dangerous. But it serves a range of purposes in making Muslim lives *value* less, and their resources free to steal. See the game. theshot.net.au/uncategorize... #Auspol

Hey #NZpol 🇳🇿 Any word on far right preacher creep Brian Tamaki being one of Rebel News’s people like Tommy Robinson, Avi Yemini, Katie Hopkins, Ben Shapiro, Laura Loomer?

"the combination of universities’ self-image as incubators and world-leading labs of climate action and innovation, paired with the obscene energy bloat and fossil fuel hunger of generative AI [is] something a little worse than mere hypocrisy, more in line with betrayal and treachery." #auspol

💯 “The attack on Helen Haines has been presented as a singular tragedy, a shocking departure from the ordinary, rather than as a manifestation of a problem that Australian women have been describing for generations.” Thanks for naming what I’ve been thinking this week @ronnisalt.bsky.social #auspol

Words matter. Not only on social media but in the way MSM platforms idiots to spew their discrimination. The media can’t play the sympathetic soul when it comes to the shocking Helen Haines attack & then promote the behaviour of the haters. Some people respond to the prompts & act accordingly.

"The PM is right that we should turn the temperature down, and that starts with parliament. That means not calling for people to be stoned in the square, or making fun of a female politician's health issues." - Andrew Wilkie on the attack on Helen Haines. #auspol

Meta encourages right-populist narratives against those of us in vulnerable/marginalised groups, whilst simultaneously suppressing our voices, preventing us from presenting alternative narratives. This is the reality of Meta's 'community standards'. [h/t @whoa-magic.lol ] #auspol #lgbtqi #lgbt

Zuckerberg & co should have their mega-corporations broken down. Unfortunately, the US is in the Robber Baron era again. Democracy is an impediment for the tycoons.

Scott Horton@robertscotthorton.bsky.social

Zuckerberg's own employees confirm that he directed an intentional effort to throw the Brazilian election in favor of Flávio Bolsonaro, apparently because he understood this is what Trump wanted. www.reuters.com/world/americ...

Lucy Hamilton: When someone tells you that One Nation is for battlers, remember that the latest name announcing themselves set to stand for the nativist, faux-populist party just appeared as a panel moderator at the international home of neoliberal money and networking, Mont Pelerin Society. #auspol
