“A video shared thousands of times on a Chinese (#CCP) #SocialMedia platform claiming a re-elected #Albanese government would adopt “the far-left agenda” of the #Greens and potentially seize vacant homes was created by a member of a #WeChat group campaigning for the Liberal party in a marginal Melbourne seat.

The six-minute video, narrated by a woman who refers to herself as #AuntieGuoer, also claims any minority Albanese government that might rely on the Greens would “crackdown on the #MiddleClass” and lead to the #decline of “traditional #SocialStructures”.”

I see this is happening in the seat of #Aston and past Liberal seat of a political favourite of mine, #TudgyFudge 🤪🤣☺️ Given the subject matter I’d lay a bet this is the work of ex AFP Officer, #SandraBourke and #MatthewSheahan who now has removed all biographic links. Why?

"When a #disruptive entity like #Google or #Facebook becomes an #institution, it’s incumbent on us to build systems that can monitor their behavior and hold them #accountable.

As #democratic institutions of power change, #counterdemocratic systems have to change as well ..

[We must understand] the way in which political and civic power are changing, so that the #press/#media can continue to act as an effective counterweight."
