I very genuinely do not think that Australia's media industry can be classified as any other than fully supportive of police violence, because you have to actively, consciously and knowingly work to frame what happened as general "violence mars protests" rather than "police violently attack protest"

ICYMI, searing piece from Omar.

If you are in two minds about attending a protest rally later today, this will convince you to go.

The muted response to the Perth bombing exposes a pattern of national indifference
A failed bomb attack in Perth on Invasion Day drew little attention from the media and public. It shows Australia has long been selective in its sense of danger.

If this is the ALP taking our protest rights away, under what feasible scenario will we ever get them back? The Libs in power will push further and Labor will let them through every time. Who needs a Trump? #auspol

In a 24-hour span, Trump spouts vile racism about Somalis, SCOTUS reinstates Texas’s racially gerrymandered maps, the Pentagon murders more black or brown fishermen—makes you wonder whether there’s some ugly unifying principle at work here
They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.
