For me, fighting fascism has nothing to do with thinking I’ll win. I don’t fight because there’s an inevitable outcome, I fight because I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t do something.

Controversial opinion but I like Australia’s entry for #eurovision. It won’t win (the jury vote) but it’s fun

Charging someone because you insulted them definitely sounds like something a fascist would do

The government is freeing up around 1,800 dwellings from pesky foreign investors or around 0.25% of all properties sold annually. This will obviously make a lick of difference. 🙄 No tax changes, no massive investment in public housing, no restrictions on domestic investors.

I already had low expectations for American civil society, but I have to admit being surprised by the sheer number of people and institutions who seem to have decided to sit out the next 4 years in the hopes that fascism blows over. They're going to regret not having done more when it was easier.

On one of those hot days last month I went to the beach with a friend. We were chatting with an older local gay guy for perhaps only 5mins before he said all Muslims should be deported and supported what Israel was doing in Gaza. I just walked away into the ocean.

It’s bananas that both major Australian political parties want to continue tethering ourselves to the US, even when it’s quickly descending into fascism and isolationism.

Americans love to tease Australians for how we pronounce “no” but ask them to pronounce “mirror”, “squirrel”, “caramel” or “Craig” and it will never stop being hilarious

More people (mostly middle aged / elderly men) should be using their WWII knowledge to stop the bad guys earlier, not to ensure the bad guys win this time around

"We're going to have to be our own leaders now. The ones we hired are broken." [This is also what I think - most of the time - about Australia's political leaders.]

We are in the Dumb & Dumber timeline… We badly need to untether ourselves from the US, it’s phoney culture wars and the Anglosphere’s weird obsession with trans kids. Let them be.

Elections in Belarus are in no way “free and fair” and I would urge all media agencies to reflect this in their headlines even if they do write about it paragraphs deep in the article. There are a handful of truly evil leaders in the world and Lukashenko is near the top.

Why would the mediocre men in the Liberal Party be scared of women taking their jobs? Oh right… the 2022 election when 5 teal independents replaced incumbent male Liberals.

Having visited Auschwitz myself recently, I don’t understand how anyone can leave that place not saddened, not angry, not moved in any way. E*on is truly a psychopath.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

So far Cheeto Fingers has declared everyone is female and given diplomatic immunity to all “illegal” immigrants… and she’s only been President for 2 days.

A reminder that sometimes the most ethical decisions may be illegal. That may include hiding people from authorities, unsanctioned protesting, damaging property of the state if it is being used to hurt people, disruptive activity that thwarts state or mob harm and armed resistance.

If you rent and you want to rage scroll, I suggest looking the Airbnb “entire place” listings in your area. If you recognise any of the places and can pinpoint the exact address, you can always enquire with the local council to see if they have planning permission.
