International Women's Day. Never closer to equality, nor closer to losing it. - Michael West
Women's rights are rolling back at the exact moment women are being pushed closer to war, poverty and public violence. IWD
"Women's rights are rolling back at the exact moment women are being pushed closer to war, poverty and public violence. This is not drift. It is design"
#IWD is tomorrow.

I donβt know about you, but watching the price of fuel rise at the bowsers over the last week has left me feeling like fuel companies are taking Australian motorists and Australian consumers for mugs.

Unfortunately I have to concede that you are right David.
I'm sure I'm not the only Labor person to say so.
@albomp.bsky.social is all the way with the "Trumpet for War". He is incredibly disappointing.

It took two hours for Albanese to declare support for the latest US/Israeli war crimes.
How long has it taken the Labor Party to consider raising the rate? To halting fossil fuels? To seriously address the racism to First Nations and Muslims?
The ALP in your head is long dead.

President Macron is working with partners to keep the conflict from spreading.
Anthony Albanese is leaving it to his fascist friends in Washington and Tel Aviv to sort out the legal technicalities.
While refusing to tell the Australian public how far our bases and personnel are involved. #auspol

It's a smugness that infuriates me.
Their selective recordings and broadcasting is where historical research is drawn from, by future generations.
So often, it is the history of wealth, power & the greedy, not of the proletariat & cultural minorities, which I find to be much more interesting.

Good media coverage I suspect. Same reason the Epstein crowd are still at large, despite the FBI admitting that the ritual torture and murder was too hot to add to the rape of minors, espionage, etc.
The media is insanely selective about outrage. It's their job.

Below is a list of dangerous cults in the USA.
I suspect affiliates of these cults are also active here in Aust.
Why Zionism is not on this list as a dangerous cult is beyond me, they are the most insidious of all the cults & have usurped the Gov'ts of many Western Nations, including Australia.

How to fund WWIII in one easy step.
Where do they find these witless fools?
Why do omnipotent billionaires spend so much time looking for intelligent life elsewhere within the universe when we have this level of intelligence here on Earth?

"For all its talk about the rules-based order, the Albanese Government has capitulated to MAGA values of violence and brutality, 'without mercy'".
Australia has clearly traded in its sovereignty for the AUKUS deal, we are now an appendage of the USA's Department of War machinery.

This whole anti immigration talk is boosting racism and division within our country.
Any attempt to suck up One Nation oxygen by negating their policy and rhetoric just stokes further grief for non white people and sets a tone of discrimination not seen since the 1950's and 60's.

How to divide a nation
Australia needs a mature, balanced debate on immigration and it needs it as an urgent priority. Unfortunately, it is a policy area too easily abused by political opportunism, misinformation and emotio...
John Hewson: Taylor insisted he is βnot seeking to be One Nation-liteβ, as Coalition bleeds voters to anti-immigration party. Iβm not so sure. He has reinstated to his front bench 2 colleagues notorious for their outspoken views on immigration: www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/share/22740/...

This whole saga makes @albomp.bsky.social even less credible as Australia's Prime Minister.
I am so, so disappointed in this man.
The killing of 15 people at Bondi Beach by 2 Islamist fanatics was terrible.
Revenge killing of Palestinians & Iranian citizens by the thousands is much worse.

Are Billionaires Evil? Wealth Ethics & Inequality Data
Analyze billionaire ethics with hard data: US top 10% own 67% of wealth while bottom 50% own 2.5%. Explore whether extreme wealth is inherently unethical.
Without a doubt the USA committed war crimes, it goes without saying.
The war against Iran by Israel & their sponsor, is a UN gazetted illegal war of aggression on a sovereign Nation.
USA is a dangerous & lawless Country & has tumbled into a hell of greed & power.

U.S. May Have Committed War Crime In Sinking Of Iranian Ship
The Geneva Conventions say nations have a duty to βtake all possible measuresβ to help rescue victims of shipwrecks. A U.S. submarine left that to Sri Lanka.
βThe 312-foot Dena and its 130-member crew, many of them musicians in the Iranian navy band, had just finished participating in an Indian government naval exercise and cultural exchange that the U.S. Navy had also participated in and were on the way home on Wednesday.β

Push for gas tax as LNG exports reap huge profits after one week of war
Gas prices tripled in 2022, which was the last time an international conflict hit energy markets. Experts say it may happen again due to the Iran war.
In 2022 oil prices doubled and gas prices quadrupled after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Australian govt needs to act quickly to ensure that domestic prices are protected from price spikes internationally and that we get a fair return on windfall profits from multinationals' exports of our LNG.

And it is both this Government and their political opponents who are stoking racism, except where antisemitism is concerned.
Islamophobia, Sinophobia, Indophobia and racism against First Nations people has risen exponentially this year and the smug media continue with their pro Zionist approach.

Some racist Christofascists laying on of hands to a paedophile "Trumpet of War" President.
History can surely not see this any other way.

Just a reminder for those of you who still, for some reason, think Winston Churchill was somehow not a corpulent piece of garbage.
The UK and US deposed the democratically elected Mosaddegh in 1953, because he was impacting BPβs profits. The PM who initiated this was Churchill.
