  1. The royal commission is about one group of gentiles feeing like they did something and another feeling aggrieved by the Jews. Like holocaust museums, antisemitism trainings, etc.

    Will we ever stop begging for love?

    "For a long time I assumed #Australia’s greatest challenge was recognising #antisemitism.

    I’m no longer convinced that is the problem.

    I think we recognise it.

    What we struggle with is allowing it to stand on its own. We seem uncomfortable confronting antisemitism without immediately searching for context, qualification, or another way of understanding it. If that’s true, then acknowledging the problem is only the beginning. We also have to ask ourselves why we are so reluctant simply to accept what #Jewish #Australians are telling us.

    Perhaps that is what the #RoyalCommission is really revealing.

    Not only the experiences of the Jewish community, but the habits of a society that still finds it easier to debate those experiences than to sit with them."

  2. #60MinutesAustralia

    My fear with this video is that millions of #Australians & people abroad will use this episode as an excuse to be #transphobic.

    The real & obvious takeaway: 1. #Gender is internal and from the person themselves.
    You can't force a 🏳️‍⚧️ #transBOY to be a girl, you can't force a cis boy w/a botched circumcision to be a girl either

    2. penis doesn't make the man

    Let trans, cis, nb, genderqueer , GNC kids be themselves

  3. This is what #tRump the Pedo King, convicted rapist, Russian asset, thief and a cannibal, traitor and diaper defecating fatberg wants to take away from #Australians

    He wants to kill #Australia people like he is killing Americans

    We have a medicine scheme called #PBS
    Where Government negotiates direct with #pharma to buy medicines.
    We still pay the high price ($3000) but the walking fatberg "thinks" its somehow unfair.

  4. PSA for #Australians with access to #Britbox

    #DoctorWho … all the classic episodes - all of them - Doctors One to Seven - they are all there on Britbox now.

    I have no idea how long they will be there, but knock yourself out while you can.

    * apologies if this has been posted recently - I am still only part time on the #Fediverse and may have missed it.

  5. Where do y'all #australians buy #masa? I got a little bag from the IGA to make fresh tortillas. Now I'm addicted to fresh corn tortillas but these little bags aren't very economical, and I don't like the plastic packaging.

    Woolies sell polenta, which isn't the same, apparently.

  6. Any #Australians have a good weather app for android? One with a working rain radar, unlike the BOM one?

  8. @Jinjirrie

    There are " #Australians " going to commit genocide in #Palestine all the time. Last time the figures were published, about 20 of them went to IOF, were identified and not a single one of them was punished under Australian law.

    There is one law for Australians.
    There is another law for "social cohesion" folks.

  9. I prefer to hear from #indigenous #Australians abt this issue, than the news.
    Are there any indigenous Aussies whocwould like to comment here?

  12. John Clarke

    #Australians and #NewZealanders , at least may still be missing this blokes brilliant , unique Satire.

    Here is one Mr Clarkes "small noting" definition of Satire itself:

    satire
    Noun:
    a reaction to the process whereby
    politicians and public figures
    hold the community up to ridicule
    and contempt.

    -- John Clarke
    Satirist, Comedian, Great Bloke.

    Here is an excellent reissue of an article / essay written back in 2017 or thereabouts.

    insidestory.org.au/john-clarke

    It has some 2026 observations backed onto the end so that the front bit wont fall off.

    Including this lift.

    "Clarke thought that a satirist should think about solutions as well as problems. He never kicked somebody because they were down, but he also thought there was little point kicking somebody simply because they were up."

    If your into actual satire and comedy ... have a geek.

  13. #AusPol

    With 'feta' on the block, what new name should #Australians use for a white soft sheep / goat milk cheese, stored in briney solution, that's good in a frittata and a rocket salad?

  14. Do you want to know how dumb #Australians are?
    Our strategic oil reserve is...

    IN FSCKING TEXAS!!!

    Our diesel reserves are only 22 days, and farmers are already not allowed to fill up machines...

    But hey... The rest of it is in USA!
    NO WORRIES!!!

    "As of March 2026, Australia maintains a strategic fuel reserve stored in the
    U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) in Texas, initially established in 2020 to meet International Energy Agency (IEA) 90-day obligations. This stockpile, comprising roughly 1.7 million barrels initially, remains in the US due to limited domestic storage"

  15. CW: sweariness about dollars per litre and murder

    You know what, #Australians? When you bang on about #petrol prices, while people are being atomised, well call me harsh, but I _do_ lose some sympathy for you.

    The "fuel crisis" is caused by your government selling its soul to #Woodside, #Santos, #Glencore and #Chevron. Your "LPG" is not fueling your car because it is fuelling their bank accounts. Their friends, also billionaires, are profiting from the weapons atomising people.

    Dollars per litre? Fuck right off.

  16. CW: A little everyday #USA #sweary

    #microsoft just forced me to read this. It is apparently relevant to the Job I Do For Money:
    ---
    Learn about new commerce

    Partners now have a choice:
    + They can continue to purchase traditional, license-based services.
    + They can purchase through the new commerce experience.

    Partners who decide to transact with the new commerce services need to familiarize themselves with how the new commerce license-based services work.
    ---

    #Australians. Do one thing everyday to rid yourself of USisms. Step away from these moron fascist dickheads.

    When someone brings you printed #American #horseshit, take out a crayon, scrawl "horseshit" across it, and hand it back. Don't waste more time. You can mutter darkly if you want, but it'd be better to spend the freed-up time going outside for a walk.

    Aaaaaaand, just in case some #MS flack is forced to follow Mastodon (the fuck, you poor bastard)

    'Transact with' is not a phrase any human uses, you are possibly looking for 'buy'? Though who the fuck knows?

    'Partner'??? We pay you money. That doesn't make us 'partners'. If we shared a house, bed or bank account, maaaaaybe. Otherwise? Ewwwwwwww, gross me the fuck out.

    'Familiarize'? Shove your Websters dictionary up your quoit. Yes, the 1944 war-paper one has blunt corners, you can make it easier on yourself I *suppose*. All of it in one go if you please. Need a mallet? Fair enough.

    'new commerce license-based services' I just have no fucking idea what this means. I am replacing it with 'hernhernhern' in the hope that it makes more sense. Ah that's better.

  17. 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.

  18. 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'???

  19. 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.
