The US or actually any fucking where but here.

There's utterly nothing new in weaponising religion.

A cursory examination of history will reveal religion used to frighten the ignorant (and keep them ignorant) and secure the status quo.

No matter how shit your life, follow instructions and you'll get pie in the sky when you die.

Very nice.

@Spoon I've always liked the lyrics to "The Light On The Hill" from the musical "Keating". Sort of a Politician's Lament.

Here are the lyrics in full:

@simonwilliamson

A very thoughtful and interesting post.

Just one thing though, if they dissolved the people, would they elect another?

They don't seem to need any.

Shout out to the (approx) six million voters (so far) who preferenced Labor first.

You'll have to go back and have another go.

Andrew says you got it wrong.

Benjamin Netanyahu has begun calling up tens of thousands of Israeli reservists ahead of an expanded offensive in Gaza. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/05/04/world/israel-reservists-gaza-offensive/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #israel #hamas #gaza #middleeast #israelhamaswar

I'm really sad for all those fine LNP candidates that lost their seats last night.

No I'm not.

Suck shit you smarmy bastards.

Given the rather disastrous results, particularly for Peter Dutton, I have these specials for all my LNP friends for the next few weeks only.

1. Nooses tied
2. Undetectible poisons sourced
3. Knives sharpened

#DuckFutton

Harry and I have quite a bit in common.

The bastard won't speak to me either.

The Genocide Red Line Package

Thorpe and Payman doing the heavy lifting on what should be a business as usual process ..... if only the #Australia govt were not captured by foreign multinationals, the US Defence Industry and Zionists.

"By the end of 2024, a range of human rights organisations and prominent commentators had concluded that Israel’s conduct in Gaza was genocidal, including Omer Bartov, Amos Goldberg, Lee Mordechai, the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention, Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International. Last week, Prof. Daniel Blatman and Prof. Amos Goldberg of the Holocaust and genocide studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem argued forcefully and definitively that the action of the Israeli Government in Gaza is genocide."
