Shameful. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Arts Minister Tony Burke made some remarks earlier this week about Creative Australia’s decision to ditch Lebanese Australian artist Khaled Sabsabi as the pick for the 61st Venice Biennale. They didn’t get much coverage but I can’t get them out of my head. So here you go.

Health care peak bodies are criticising the 2 nurses for their abhorrent behaviour but have been silent while their overseas colleagues and their patients were assassinated by Israel. We can see the hypocrisy.

Cisco enables Israel’s crimes against Palestinians. @cisco.com powers Israel’s surveillance, military networks & genocide in Gaza—while claiming to stand for "equity & fairness." 📢 Let’s expose its hypocrisy! Join the BDS campaign to #DumpCisco. loom.ly/4blNmoU

SCOOP: We've learned at least three individuals closely associated with Palantir or its cofounder Peter Thiel were involved in an online recruiting effort for DOGE late last year. Step inside the recruitment effort that helped build Elon's DOGE army:

#temutrump is a very appropriate moniker for a certain someone

It's not a demolition site it's a mass grave. It's not a demolition site it's a crime scene. It's not a demolition site its a homeland. It's not a demolition site it's Palestine. It's not a demolition site it's a genocide.

If Americans don't take to the streets to protest in big numbers, then it's all over. Look at what they've done in just 2 weeks.

You only need to look at the Liberal Party's FB and coverage by the media to know this election is going to be a flood of racism and some of the grossest criticism possible of anyone against the genocide of Palestinian people. Being timid and hoping rational argument will win the day is deluded.

Tech is in league with both authoritarianism and the fossil fuel industry www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/busines...

Prof Jeffrey Sachs lays it all out youtu.be/0Bl6_MAhg_4?...

Power corrupts. That is all.

"The US is on the cusp of a natural gas power plant construction boom, as Big Tech turns to fossil fuels to meet the huge electricity needs of the artificial intelligence revolution — putting climate targets in peril" www.ft.com/content/63c3...

What has surprised me most about academics and researchers? How many are ignorant of world events and history, and how many are apathetic towards the plight of the marginalised and exploited. It's so disappointing.

The US is a rogue state.

Just to repeat what I've long said about this man: 1. Almost everything he says is a lie. 2. Nothing he says can be trusted. 3. His whole life is constructed as a long con. 4. Anyone who trusts him will ultimately be hurt. 5. He will say anything to acquire power and more money. 6. He is dangerous.

Who thinks killing children is absolutely fine? Israel and the US.

The billionaires got scared because people online noticed they’re taking over the world. So in response the billionaires will silence all those people talking about them online so they can more easily take over the world.
