I remember it well. Sad day. Back then I thought we would have fixed this by now, which is even sadder because we have doubled down on making it worse.

The Prime Minister just shut down the House of Representatives to ram through a Bill weakening our environmental laws with no debate. This contempt for our democracy beggars belief. This was a deplorable move by the Government and I condemn them wholly for it.

JobKeeper was designed to reduce inequality. But some firms are using taxpayer money to pay massive executive bonuses. In 90 seconds, I listed the worst offenders https://t.co/zbWfA7eiD6 #auspol #ausecon @OMgovernance

The negative reactions, false beliefs and “human rights” criers against wearing face masks in the community is astounding. I assume you accept the social construct of wearing clothing in public? It’s the same fucking thing. Just wear a mask. It’s not hard.

I want you to meet the Liberal-National Coalition members who were at uni while it was FREE. Instead of making corporations pay their tax and making uni and TAFE free for all, they're doubling the cost of humanities degrees. Thread 👇🏽

Is there a statue in the world of a person that by today’s standards did not carry out or believe in something we find abhorrent? Should we do a statue audit, throw them in the bin & just start again?

Crazy to think the giant tortoises alive today were born before WW2 but did nothing to stop it.

We should all think back to the kind of things we found funny 10, 20 or 30 years ago and save a lot of time by just cancelling ourselves.

America’s inability to accept and address systemic racism in its history, society and governance is its greatest weakness. One exploited from both outside and within to devastating effect. We look in horror from Australia but fail to understand it’s our greatest weakness, too.

How embarrassing. “People in Australia doesn’t have the understanding of the history of Police killings here”. No; WE definitely do understand. We also have our own history of killings at the hands of police. What ignorance.

Striking how some prominent women have said some ugly things online, apologised immediately and are yet to return. Others say reprehensible things—seniors should die for the economy; Aboriginal genocide would’ve happened anyway—with a tie on, never apologise and get syndicated.
