AUKUS is worst decision from our political duopoly
Exorbitant, unexplained & unjustified
Commits Australia to
1.Australian bases for UK & USA nuclear submarines
2.Becoming a target in USA/China confrontation
3.Being a repository for high level nuclear waste requiring security/storage >100,000 yrs

you can feel that loss in things like AUSKUS.
what shouldโ€™ve been handled with candour and respect for the public has turned into quiet manoeuvring โ€” detail buried, trust frayed.
itโ€™s not just policy opacity; itโ€™s the sense that moral courage left the room. #auspol

The US government has no interest or conception of a world order that does anything other than bend to their whims. That's it. That's the logic. Can we stop being shocked by this and just get on with opposing it?

Iโ€™m not a religious person but I did go to CCD. Anyone remember 2 Chronicles 26:16โ€“21? Thatโ€™s the Bible passage where King Uzziah becomes powerful, oversteps his authority, and God strikes him with leprosy after his pride gets out of control. Just saying

Whatever moron is US President, whatever idiotic war he starts, Europe will come running to save him.

It is idiocy.

Analysis: Trump said Iranโ€™s nuclear program was โ€˜obliterated.โ€™ So why is he looking to strike again? | CNN Politics In March, the US intelligence community assessed that Iran was โ€œnot building a nuclear weapon.โ€

In summary: AI rots critical thinking, hallucinates, is shaped by the hyper-wealthy pedos that own it, its data centres guzzle water we can't spare, it will help lay off millions, we can't trust photos anymore & it keeps recommending nuclear war. But yeah, nice memes, dipshits!!

The Playbook, The Platform, and The Press: Ten Days in the Life of Australia's Shadow Treasurer Six articles in ten days. One politician running a misinformation playbook. And a mainstream media that keeps amplifying it instead of scrutinising it. This is what uncritical access journalism costs

Six articles. Six letters. Ten days. One question.
Is Tim Wilson a protected species at Nine Media?

The media response? Silence. Sympathy. Another platform.

This is what that costs democracy.
