There's a reason why we say ACAB.
The cops showed up today ready to crack heads, and took every opportunity to show protestors who's boss.
The ones not actively salivating at the prospect were nonetheless standing directly behind their compatriots.

Can anyone explain why NSW Police all have Thomas Sewell style NSN moustaches?
I get some of those who work forces, are the same that burn crosses but this is a bit blatant.
Injuries here and clear footage of police brutality.

The Israeli president Herzog gets asked a straight question about the protestors who are concerned about 70,000 dead Palestinians, and in his answer managed to both accuse those protestors of wanting to destroy Israel, and avoid mentioning the Palestinians at all. Absolute gutter politics #auspol

Please, please, media outlets, remember the C word: context. You can’t discuss Trump’s apes post - or his ‘blame a staffer’ excuse - if you’re not also factoring in and reminding your viewers/readers about his birtherism, his ‘send her back’ remarks, him calling Somalis ‘low IQ’.

It's such an interesting feature of these times that fantasised paedophilia is constantly invoked by reactionary conservatives as a boogie-man (eg to demonise trans people) but actual predatory child sexual abuse is always downplayed as a moral panic. Speaks to a deeply internalised conflict.

"The (UN) commission of inquiry has found that Herzog has incited genocide... Someone who incites genocide does not satisfy the good character test for entering Australia. On the contrary, a person who incites genocide should be arrested on arrival and tried under Australian and international law."

Anthony Albanese should recognise he made a terrible mistake in inviting the Israeli president to Australia and put a stop to this divisive political visit

Right-wingers are always whining about George Soros this and that, but as of today, Elon Musk had 104 times Soros's wealth, and spent more money to sway the 2024 election than anyone has ever spent on any election in the history of the world. So all those Gomers can fuck right off.

Next time someone asks you about energy and land use, maybe remind them that the ~35 million acres that currently grow corn for ethanol in the US could produce ~15 PWh per year of electricity from solar photovoltaics. That's ~3.5 times more than *total annual generation from all US power plants*.
