Good breakdown of the Peter Dutton's proud moment of buying his first home at the age of 19 (actually he was 20), compared to repeating the same today. We can thank the LNP (especially Howard) & Labor for the policy settings that have got us to where we are today. www.tiktok.com/@getrichwith...

Jillian Segal, the AUS Govt's Special Envoy on Anti-Semitism, said she thought Trump's idea of removing Palestinians from Gaza has merit. Is she supporting land theft & ethnic cleansing?! Imagine the anti-Islamophobia Envoy had said removing Jews was a good idea. #auspol #USPolitics #FreePalestine

Journalists. Editors. Defy your bosses. Report the facts. Destroy all biases. Now is NOT the time to line the pockets of your employer by towing the line

Fuck Murdoch should not be something to be outraged about. Fuck Murdoch should be our national slogan

Out of patience with people twisting themselves in knots to justify Australia Day remaining on the 26th January. Just change the fucking date. It'll mean fuck all to you but mean a lot to many Aboriginal Australians.

Don't know the original source but so very accurate.

For no particular reason, here is Orson Welles reminding you to apply critical thinking to the media you consume. The dominant broadcast mediums change over time, but the relevancy of the message will remain as ever.

Almost zero tolerance. My @smh @theage cartoon.

This is the only flag I’m flying today. For Janey. #Trumpisacunt Let’s make it trend.

The reserve bank has made it clear, for a healthy economy we need a certain percentage of unemployment, the unemployed are therefore providing an essential service for the economy and should be rewarded as such. #RaiseTheRate

I've published a research paper with colleagues arguing that News Corp used reporting and commentary during the Voice referendum to advocate for and in concert with the 'No' campaign. It is an open access paper, available and summarised here 👇 Please share! independentaustralia.net/politics/pol...

Dutton hates being called this. We know what to do. #auspol #ausvotes

Today’s devastating news about the L.A. fires, in the middle of their Winter, should serve as a timely reminder that Australia cannot risk electing another Fossil Fuel-owned LNP government. Ever. #ClimateActionNow

Anthony Albanese has called for fixed four year terms. Makes sense to me. If you agree, RT. Disagree, "like"? #auspol

Meta quietly updated its hateful conduct policy to allow users to refer to "women as household objects or property" among other offensive language.

A regular reminder that there's nothing we can do about the US. They're about to experience exactly what they voted for BUT... There's a LOT we can do here to ensure we're not Trump'd Start by supporting the 21 community indies running in seats Aust wide #auspol > linktr.ee/CommunityInd...

It’s an important day for journalists writing about Dutton’s nuclear costings 💩. Today is the day you show if you’re a: 👉🏻propagandist for fossil fuels 👉🏻a stenographer who platforms manipulative lies unchecked, or 👉🏻Ideally, a watchdog who fact-checks and holds power to account. 🧐 Which will it be?
