Many years ago, before I started following politics, I worked at a winery cellar door. Two women came in for a tasting, one of whom gave off such a creepy vibe (despite being perfectly polite) that I noted her name on her credit card and Googled her after they left. That woman was Peta Credlin.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Take a listen and seriously consider it. While this is not an uncommon practice, I am glad people are beginning to speak up about it.

I am laughing so hard. Australians don’t want AUKUS. The Australian government is too cowardly to pull out. In a wild twist, it seems that the US government might sort it out for us anyway. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

You can feel how you want about spray painted walls or stereos going missing during unrest, but if you're directing *any* attention to that instead of the injustice that the unrest is addressing, then your priorities are out or order and your false equivalence is giving comfort to the oppressors.

For those forever asking is this a constitutional crisis? How will we know? Yes. The military is being mobilized to the 5 largest D democratic cities to quell protest before a military parade to celebrate dear leader. Ok? Got it? Act accordingly.

Wow turns out after 18 months of gaslighting every protestor and activist and saying there was nothing Australia could do, it turns out there’s some stuff Australia can do! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-06...

Yesterday I flagged some solid Australian journalists worth following, but forgot about Crikey! I can’t afford a subscription (broke, disabled student) but the gifted articles I’ve read are always solid. I particularly appreciate their critique here given the absolute bullshit reporting coming out.

What are these 'shared values' with our 'friends' Israel and the US? Is it white supremacy? Genocide? Corruption? Systematically murdering brown people? Or is it the 'democracy' thing, that we have two useless political options, both of which want to make things worse? Explain it to me like I'm 6.
