Anyone else on UpScrolled? It was designed by a Palestinian-Australian, and supported by Tech for Palestine incubator. Easy to create an account and get posting. Looks like a mix between Instagram & Twitter, but without shadowbans. No Bluesky or Mastodon scolds in sight. Already has edit function!

Senator Penny Wong is “loving” representing us to the world and claims we are defined by courage and kindness so I will be taking a moment to reflect on those two words and their decisions around the ongoing genocide being committed by Israelis as we speak.

This is truly a slaughter of the Libs. Thought Labor would win, maybe get a majority. But cripes.

Then you see James McGrath in the ABC and you understand completely why the LNP are so shite

How delusional are they? Still forcing the ideology of centre-right party as being the answer instead of adapting to changing needs. May they long be in the wilderness of political theatre.
The Liberal's representative on the ABC panel, James McGrath hysterically telling everyone that we need to wait until the pre-polls come in and Peter Dutton will still be the Opp Leader, might now to choke on a very large serve of humble pie

Anyone who thought Dutton was viable PM material is delusional. Faith based in the LNP brand. They need to accept reality that the LNP is not what it was.
Spent tonight at a blue blood Liberal party in the Victorian western districts … fair bit of incomprehension at the results

Ali France just became the first person to unseat an opposition leader at an election. Despite Peter Dutton’s fear-mongering and culture wars that strategically and deliberately harm minorities, Australians didn’t buy it. And a woman with a disability showed him the door.

"The evidence shows that Labor’s official policy platform is correct. Mandatory minimum sentencing is unlikely to help solve this issue – or any other issue for that matter. It has a poor track record of reducing crime" #auspol

The decision on mandatory minimum sentencing is contrary ALP Policy
“Labor opposes mandatory sentencing. This practice does not reduce crime but does undermine the independence of the judiciary, leads to unjust outcomes, and is often discriminatory in practice.”

Mandatory minimum sentencing is proven to be bad policy. It won’t stop hate crimes
Extensive evidence shows the government’s plan to legislate mandatory minimum sentences for hate crimes, including antisemitic acts, won’t be effective. Here’s why.

Dutton says men are 'fed up' with being overlooked at work

Women have been locked out of work opportunities for decades, denied their potential

Slowly, it's evening up & already men are fed up?🙄

When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression
