Why is it that religious bodies receive exemptions from criminal laws in Australia?

If it's a crime, it's a fucking crime. Fix this up, @australianlabor.bsky.social @albomp.bsky.social.

NO MORE EXEMPTIONS. REPEAL EXISTING EXEMPTIONS. #auspol

A whole bunch of artists and cultural workers have lost work because of the implosion of Adelaide Writers week — writers, producers, stage crew, front of house. None of this was their fault. Something for the Labor premier to think about

The attempt to now discredit this guy because he didn’t do what Sky News wanted is (in a long list) one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in Australian media. What an absolute disgrace.

I've never been more convinced Australia has the worst mainstream journalists in the world. Simple, thick, racist, ahistorical, bootlicking dipshits that lie and screech more than they think and feel. This weaponisation of a tragedy against anti-genocide voices is grotesque.
