Sydney Mardi Gras is one of our community's most powerful shields from visibility. Its scale protects us. The more visible we are, the harder we are to kill.

Vale David, what a legend. His reviews were important in opening up the wonderful world of international cinema to so many. Yes, definitely five stars.

Turns out I have misunderstood the response to my tweet 😂

I think you have missed the point of my tweet

It is so important that those speaking out be clear that it is not Israelis or Jews that are criminals. It is those who pursue this illegal and genocidal war. Just as it was not Palestinians or Muslims who were to blame for the murder and kidnapping of October 7.

I didn’t say that lol

In my mind, a civilised democratic process is one where people elect leaders to lead, represent and make decisions - then hold them to account.

Factions deploying brute force to elevate & cut down allies according to tribal allegiance & favour is unedifying & centred in self-interest.
