These are just the sort of authoritarian practices and #ZionistMcCarthyism that would be enacted in Australia

This is some background to Seymour & Atlas Network.

So proud of you, @clareheathmcivor.bsky.social 🏆🏆
All courage.
These churches are abusive cults. We must help end the protections that allow children & adults to be abused in secret for years.
We must also block their attempt to win seats/gov. #Springst #Auspol

No one should be without a home in such a rich country as ours. Imagine what the money wasted on AUKUS could have provided.
