The suppression of #Palestinian and pro #Palestine voices is systemic across #BigTech. When will the @EUCommission use its #DSA powers and protect people's right to #FreeExpression and Access to Information?

Australian PMs
We went from Tony the phony, to the more trendy version, Anthony the show pony.
In the mean time the lies and corruption continue morph into business as usual.

Australia - Democracy?
There is probably more than a strong correlation between restricting free speech and the rise in Authoritarianism.

Australian housing
The story should be about why the PM denies people the same opportunities his family were given. A time when invalid pension, public housing and free education were available.

Australia
Fans who remain welded to their failed political parties are helping the decline.
A huge problem for Australia is the total lack of talent and concern where it is needed.

Un santo! Un apostolo!
A un anno dalla morte di Charlie Kirk, mentre una parte dell’estrema destra occidentale lo trasforma in un idolo, in un martire e ormai quasi in un santino, sento il bisogno di ricordare che prima di diventare un’immagine sulle magliette e un nome da pronunciare con commozione alle convention c’era un uomo. E quell’uomo aveva delle idee. Parecchie. Alcune perfettamente legittime in una democrazia, altre decisamente meno presentabili.

The Trump administration warned Britain not to force social platforms to boost traditional media in their algorithms, calling it a censorship risk. Apparently America’s newest export is unsolicited advice about everybody else’s internet. #FreeSpeech
