  1. The #JCA ought to be given more oxygen as it represents the Jewish people who do not necessarity support the current government of #Israel, its policies or #Zionism. The Council is highly critical of the #AntiSemitism definition currently adopted on the grounds that it conflates anti-Semitism with #AntiZionism and #Anti-Israel. Despsite, or in spite of, #Murdock editorial policies.

    “On the one hand, News (Corporation) has attacked Schwartz for being supposedly antisemitic. On the other, it has criticised her for calling out the antisemitism she’s been subjected to by her Zionist opponents. But when you’re always right no matter what, this is not an inconsistency at all.” Says all that needs to be said about the #Fascist #Murdochmedia

  2. CW: A note to non-Australians about Australia Day, 26 January

    @futzle Every year, the 26th January sees Invasion Day protest marches and other events mourning genocide and dispossession, celebrating the survival of many of the oldest continuous cultures in the world, and expressing ongoing resistance led by local Indigenous peoples across the continent.

    In Gadi (Sydney), most years see tens of thousands of people march from the city to the Yabun festival in Vic Park.

    This year will be especially important, given the NSW government's efforts to suppress protest in the name of 'social cohesion' (because denying people a voice has always turned out really well for long-term cohesion, right?). Organisers are planning to march, even if the government extends the anti-protest laws for another two weeks. The more people show up, the less likely it is that the authorities decide to cause trouble.

    No surprise that evil #police are using social media and #cellphone apps to hunt dissidents. And those #covid19 trackers, a good faith project afaik, in the Western democracies are an obvious #securitybreach P.O.I.N.T. being: -- -- maybe, just maybe we can build a bridge of #reconciliation with the #rightwing wingnut space cadets if we acknowledge that their overblown paranoia about the so-called "deep state" is not lacking a kernel of truth.
