The Greens warned the hate laws were biased and would target the wrong people. It took less than a month for police to raid Dissent Bar and prove every concern right. Laws supposedly about antisemitism are being used against anti-fascists.

HOW IT STARTED, HOW ITS GOING: IPA founded in 1943 by Murdoch Sr & the owners & CEOs of big mining corps. The same Melbourne Club elite formed the Liberal Party in 1944. In the 1980s, the IPA joins the #AtlasNetwork. The party of big oil, coal, gas & nukes, until all our kids are cooked.

Srsly?! There are Australian citizens serving in the IDF?! If there are Australian-Israeli dual citizens serving in the IDF, will they be interviewed on their return to Australia to ascertain if they've participated in genocide or war crimes in Gaza? My guess: no. #auspol #IsraeliTerrorism

Zionism has done for the Star of David what Nazism did for the Swastika. For many Australians, myself included, the Israeli flag is a hate symbol. While Australia maintains diplomatic relations with Israel, banning its flag would be problematic. We should reconsider the one, so we can consider the other.

Come the next election, a politician who supports the genocidal state of Israel will not have my first preference. Palestine must be decolonised.

Tom Silvagni files application to appeal rape conviction Lawyers for convicted rapist Tom Silvagni, the son of AFL great Stephen Silvagni and TV personality Jo Silvagni, have filed an application for leave to appeal.

β€œHis parents, AFL great Stephen Silvagni and TV personality Jo Silvagni, had previously flagged they would be investigating appeal options.”

Perhaps it’s time to accept the reality that your son committed rape.

Writers' Week under threat of collapse as list of writers leaving nears 100 - News | InDaily, Inside South Australia A multitude of high-profile authors has joined the flood of names demolishing the Writers' Week lineup.

One hundred writers withdrawing from Adelaide Festival Writers Week is an important stand for free speech, and against the racist targeting of Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah.

The question now is not so much who else will join the boycott.
But who remains? And why?

#Albo has bowed to the right-wingnut/Israeli pressure to hold a #RC into #Bondi. Commonly a RC is good @ revealing long running systemic corruption & mismanagement. The ability to generate understanding of, & determine individual motivations for, random acts of violence appears problematic.

This attempt to strip Australians of freedom of speech & freedom to protest, in Israel’s name, is repellant.

No country (including Australia) can be immune from criticism.

Specious conflation of Israel with Judaism makes the situation worse, creating unfair blaming of Jewish people.

🧡 Authoritarian letter-writers for a solely Israeli narrative need to understand that their work is backfiring.

Murdoch’s audience is a minority.

The rest of us are becoming galvanised by disgust at the people who would deny us the right to speak about Palestinians as a people & as fully human.
