Labor have lost me as a voter, forever. They have lost touch with their voter base. So disappointing and watery, at best.

Thanks team 🎉

The third eye was symbolic of higher intelligence, definitely not happening in the fossil fool environment of hypocrisy.
-
Her quip at the end about McBride not being a war crimes whistleblower is wrong. He was complaining about soldiers who weren't responsible bring held responsible over soldiers who were apart of the branding and protected by the command structure.

Good show. Maybe soon you can go weekly? And later in the day if you'd like live participation? People don't get home till 6 or 6.30pm

Hasn't the Government expressed concern over the civilian death toll in Gaza? What more can Australia do that would placate the protest apart from magically stopping the war?
-
Yeah. You can protest as long as you do it at home so that nobody knows that you’re protesting and you don’t inconvenience anybody. Those types of protests work really well. /S

Who is doubling our donations?

The Australian public saw the problems to racial tensions less than 2 weeks after the terrorist attack of October 7 when Hamas supporters chanted Gas the Jews on the steps of the Sydney Opera House. The problem has been that the media and political parties in Australia have taken idealogical differing stances to appeal to their voters. Should have been dealt with sooner.

The producer's is a musical about the nazis and Hitler. The song Spring time for Hitler and Germany is very appropriate for the zelinsky and Netanyahu.

I feel like if the Liberals were serious about nuclear they'd be touting the efficacy and safety of Gen IV reactors. If we're going to get involved in nuclear energy, why should we be sticking with old technology?

Strike 3 against Australia Institute state of parliamentary positioning bulletin sheets, b-s.. The primary advancement of energy management was supposed to be by maximizing efficiency, specifically roof top solar, but the Australia's most effective "parliamentary" liar for f-f anti human protection rackets overrode the democratic process. To be effective at all politics should be the form recognising thermodynamical real-time function of energy production/usage. "Nuclear" terminology is a wave-particle approximation of actual holographic positioning nucleation and "in common usage" is overloaded with poisonous propaganda. It's easy to lose your head over protecting a status quo you think you understand, but it is simply a synthetic fantasy loosely associated with incompetent politicized delusions of "honor" in faked-up heirachical dominance structures, not confirmed by Observation, QM-TIME Completeness cause-effect of Actuality in Principle. You could do a LOT better.

Yes. I deliberately let the mistakes in my comment pass because I am trying to f*ck with the algorithm.
