@mattwebbdev well I think we can agree US liberalism is built on colonialism and if I may expand upon the connection neocolonialism is a means of obscuring the master-slave dynamic and likewise (human-centric plant based diet activism)(a bit verbose)? obscures the abuse of non-humans by removing them from the conversations around their own liberation that they can't participate in themselves and sidelining important aspects of their exploitation (such as in entertainment, vivisection, fashion, manufacturing):
• A "health" vegan might revert to eating fish (the largest category of non-human kills) the moment they are convinced it isn't unhealthy
• An "environmental" vegan might still use leather products and such because its durable compostable and to not use byproducts of slaughter would just be a waste of resources and emissions
And just like liberals will excuse colonialism in return for liberal domestic policy they will excuse non-human animal abuse that doesn't affect them (unless of course its one of the pre-approved causes for species favoured by a speciesist society)

What piece of shite to start the day on social media with. I ask you, what kind of #Grifting brainless entrepreneur would think that there is any sense in sucking up 40,000 megaliters of #water a year from an #aquifer in one of the driest parts of the land on the driest #Continent on earth to stand up an **Intensive** #horticulture business there?
We haven’t seen anything as brainless as this since the Ord River Scheme and cotton industries up North in WA. What kind of madperson even think it is a responsible thing to do? The people behind *Future Agribusiness* are nothing but #NeoLiberal predators looking to profit while raping the land. They don’t give a toss about *Country* and the fragile *ecosystems* on land *Never Ceded* . But I do. In fact, the mojority of this society does care about the land and what is bieng done to it in the name of #NeoLiberalism and #NeoColonialism.
Where is our *Environmental Protection Agency* in all this? Recovering from #Labor Govt death blows no doubt. There is no coming back from this kind of #pillage. Good grief, this is just insane. Here’s hoping the Courts (in reflecting the will of the broader society while adjuticating) will see true justice (in #fascist NT) applied to the benefit of all and not just a few madhats looking to cash up.

This is not **News** per se, by which I mean this is not a new development. In one form or another, precarious agricultural workers have been take *to the cleaners* over the centuries (from Australia’s colonial past to the present #NeoLiberal #NeoColonialism). Wherever there’s a buck to be made by skipping around laws and regulations, there is sure to be some clever arsehole that comes up with a scheme to vaccum up easy cash. That, is the state our society has come down to and some of the worst perpetrators of this *financial fraud* are #LabourHire companies. They provide nothing that can’t be had by other more equitable schemes and skim the cream off the top for the privilege of screwing workers. ** A pox on all their houses.**
“Australia's growing reliance on temporary migrant labour has fuelled a booming labour hire industry, with contractors sitting between growers and workers, often recruiting, transporting and housing them.” (Source: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08-04/australias-hidden-modern-slave-labour-workforce-exposed/106968610 )
