Since migrating here (not yet fully), I’ve been considering quitting SM all together I have a Wife, young family & some work I can focus on, so I’m sure I could have a good crack Also feel deflated by us as a species Anyone else? I understand everyone is here for different reasons

“The Australian has pumped me up as a billionaire Palmer-like figure…” simonahac.bsky.social tells @rachelwithers.bsky.social why he’s no Clive, and how it suits both parties to paint him that way.

Does anyone know who these profits and whose economy it is that we are always told it is so important to grow? I'll give you a hint, it is the 1% or the 0.01%. But it ain't you, you're paying.

Quick plug for Rick Morton’s book on Robodebt — Mean Streak. You may think you know the Robodebt story, but this is the first time it has been laid out so thoroughly. Rick focuses on the human side of the story — the victims, but also the perpetrators www.harpercollins.com.au/978146071744...

Dutton using the word ‘politicisation’ to describe robodebt report into politicians’ mishandling of the scheme is really weird.

Bridget ‘Rorts’ Mackenzie who refused to appear before the Sports Rorts enquiry for more than an hour now talking about personal integrity and accountability. How she does it with a straight face is really a wonder. #senate

Make no mistake, this is not a failure of legislative passage, it is a failure of policy design (again). The govt seems incapable of creating legislation that gets to the heart of the issue it says matters most. You can’t carve political parties out of misinformation laws. Full stop. #auspol

A government run by billionaires will never be for the people.

Dear @safety.bsky.app, If the @albomp.bsky.social #BlueSky account is maintained by an ALP staffer then it's legit. But if it's being maintained by a well-intentioned anonymous stranger copying tweets from Twitter, it really shouldn't claim to be "authorised" by the PM. That's fraud. #auspol

Weak as piss The decision to axe it as well as the Bill

We have to have a Universal Basic Income Whether we like it or not, AI will take over some artists, and to reverse it would be a fight with the top

Why not? #pronouns

The number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills. Norway - 0 UK - 0 France - 0 Spain - 0 Portugal - 0 Denmark - 0 Australia - 0 Iceland - 0 Italy - 0 Finland - 0 Ireland - 0 Germany - 0 Netherlands - 0 Sweden - 0 Japan - 0 Canada - 0 United States - 643,000

Dear @albomp.bsky.social, With respect, your Govt needs to: • Oppose Israel's genocide in #Gaza, the #WestBank & #Lebanon • Protect the #environment, act on #Climate, promote #renewables • Withdraw from #AUKUS • Fix the #NACC • Abandon #SocialMediaBan Do this. Or Dutton will win. #auspol #AusVotes

'The major parties are stitching up a massive increase in public funding for political parties, while it will still be perfectly legal to lie in a political ad' #auspol My Canberra Times column on the donation laws being rushed through parliament www.canberratimes.com.au/story/882652...

This is blood boiling

Everything that’s bad must have at least a little, tiniest something to do with 21 of the last 27 years of conservative neoliberal LNP rule You’ll recall they had 2 x near decade stints! Will you ever hear the LNP or any of there supporters take any responsibility for it, no!

The Libs will destroy Australia with anorher decade of structural inequality after Albo finishes warming the benches Get this. Won’t be the first time 👍🏾🤦🏾‍♂️

Laura Tingle today: "A government that doesn't want to upset people finds itself outgunned by a man with simple, angry messages." The rumour mill is spinning that mid-late March could be election time. If it is, Albanese needs to get serious help - and listen to it. www.abc.net.au/news/2024-11...

What mandate?

Need to get out of my echo chamber and live every day having 100 blue-tick accounts calling me a dirty Indian street shitter every time I post charts about climate and energy

Finland, Finland, Finland 💙 take note @albomp.bsky.social education, not prohibition #auspol #NoAgeBan #insanity

48/6 replying to India’s 150 Who’d have expected the Aussies on this score, in Perth! It’ll need another Cummins cameo #INDvAUS

Yes, they are this stupid. This is one of their memes... in support of a candidate who received 49% of the popular vote.

The richest 0.01% are 40x richer now than in 1970. Everyone else got just 8% richer. The rich need to be taxed into oblivion.

An international arrest warrant has been issued for Netanyahu. If you want him arrested, Like. If it needs to be right now, RT.

How many of these do we have?

I made a blocklist for some of the new showing up to troll anti trans folks. No oxygen for these schmoes! bsky.app/profile/did:...

Why wouldn't you go with renewalbles after reading this Unless you are beholden to some mining magnates..
