To recap—the only nation that’s ever used nuclear weapons on civilians, is backing a nation that has 200 nuclear weapons yet denies their existence, to threaten a nation that doesn’t have any nuclear weapons with annihilation if it doesn’t unconditionally surrender its sovereignty

If you've ever observed a flock of chooks/chickens in a mob fleeing hysterically from something that actually isn't there, then you'll understand the recent behaviour of the ABC, Creative Australia et al.
Jumping at shadows, the lot of them.

Chicken run - The Shot
We are not so much being led by donkeys, as led by chooks. And these events have highlighted, we’re probably being led by a foreign country.

It's odd that Elon Musk's emulation of the Nazis stops short of creating reliable cars and rockets that get to their destination.

The government boasts that emissions are now 28.2% below 2005 levels.
Sounds great, except that is only when you include the very dodgy "emissions" from land clearing and land use (there was massive land clearing in 2005).
The fall of "actual emissions" is a mere 1.8%.
