  1. Looked at joining my #LocalLibrary.

    Read the #TermsAndConditions.

    The #Library seems #StrangelyIgnorant of the deaths of some 2000 #Australians, many after being forced into interactions with #DebtColllectionServices via the #DepartmentOfHumanServices run #RoboDebt program.

    At least I hope they're ignorant.
    And that's why they refer fees for 28 day(?) over due items to a "US based debt collection agency".

    Acting like monsters.

    I decided not to join but to write a short note to council.

  6. Hundreds of #Australians experiencing #homelessness are dying more than 30 years prematurely in a nationwide #crisis fuelled by despair, critical #housing shortages, a breakdown in health provision, violence on the streets and failures of the justice system.

    A 12-month Guardian Australia investigation identifying and examining more than 600 cases has found people experiencing homelessness are dying at an average age of 44, a shocking life expectancy gap that experts say is worse than any other disadvantaged group in the country. #housingshortage #ponzischeme #BetterNotBigger #auspol #thirdworldcountry

  7. Most #Australians remember the frenzied cacophony of #legacyMedia hacks that emerged from the election of Ricky Muir.

    So-called "progressive" outlets lampooned our democratic process that ensured votes for #minorParties were never wasted (unlike in the #USA). A process that enabled people like the once-relevant #NickXenophon to get elected.

    They #engineeredConsent to change our #votingSystem, at every opportunity demonising the workingClass senator.

    Maybe if he called himself 'Richard'???

  8. It's good to see that some in #Australia have been able to identify #JobKeeper as a #scam. Designed to enrich the #powerElite, and the #extremelyWealthy, while regular honest #Australians, #casualWorkers, #unemployed and the #lessFortunate are left behind.

    Good to see people hashtagging #NoWorkersLeftBehind and #WageSubsidyForAll but what did you make of those hashtags?

    Did you actually #organise?

    This is why we need #alternativeMedia and more using Tor and I2P.
