My take on last night: "Compared with Labor, who ran a brutally cynical campaign to cement themselves in power using every lever of government largesse, the Liberal Party appears to have forgotten its reason for being and who it is supposed to represent." https://t.co/XZOrsjjwUB

This is very good.
“Australian beach culture relies on several social phenomena, all of them fragile: a nonsectarian commons that is freely accessible to everyone, regardless of ethnicity or religion; a culture that permits women to dress scantily without fear of harassment; and a tacit system of

The great contradiction of Chris Minns' view of multiculturalism is that it is on the one hand this fantastic virtue but on the other requires all sorts of rules and restrictions on speech and gatherings and behaviour to keep us all from killing each other.

One doesn't book in to a Philippines terror training camp like it's a wellness retreat. How much wider and deeper does the network go?

"Astoundingly, Albanese believes he has a good shot of using a terror attack to shut down the rise of the new right and boxing out the Coalition, while using his own deliberately low energy style to cast himself as the everyman hero of the day." https://t.co/FabUNFrGbN

Precisely this.
On 14 July 2016 a Tunisian Islamist drove a 19-tonne cargo truck into crowds celebrating Bastille Day along the Promenade des Anglais in Nice, killing 86 people and injuring hundreds before being shot dead by police. On 3 June 2017, three Islamic terrorists drove a van into

The gun thing is so impossibly cynical, in one fell swoop the side of politics that normalised river to the sea bridge marches etc has taken the focus off Islamic radicalism, migration, assimilation, etc, and in the process set the 'right' up to be the straw man enemy of reform.

It’s just insane what is happening to travellers heading to the US under Trump over their social media posts … oh no wait sorry, this happened back in 2012 when Obama the Lightworker was president.

Why is it impossible to build nice things like this in Australia? There would be a lot less NIMBYism if local development proposals didn’t come with a punitive edge of enforced ugliness.

I argue that the real crisis facing Europe is that remilitarization requires identity, purpose, and legitimacy & these foundations are eroding. Eastern and Central Europe have begun to rebuild them under the pressure of war. The rest of Europe has not. https://t.co/ee3ZRxYacA

There’s a new serif in town.
The latest strike in the Trump administration's war on "woke": @SecRubio orders the State Dept. to abandon using the Calibri typeface and to go back to Times New Roman. Blinken had State adopt Calibri since a sans serif typeface is easier for people who have a hard time reading.

A recent newspaper report suggests Sydney is to grow by one million people over the next two decades. Does anyone remember us having a discussion over whether that was a good idea?

Fascinating piece.
I've waited nearly ten years to tell this story: In 2016, I developed a source in Iranian intelligence named Mohammad Hossein Tajik. He told me he came from a politically connected family. That he had led Iran's cyber army. And that he had secretly worked for the CIA. 🧵

Nuclear energy is still regarded with skepticism. But nuclear power’s critics wildly overstate its dangers, and preserving and expanding this energy source is essential to a just green transition.
