Today I was in Maldon & overheard a woman planning to get firewood home. She said: Where are the men when you need them? I said: You don't need men when you've got a lesbian. Then I honest to god flexed my arm muscles for her. And you bet I loaded the car easily. #lesbian

We have a world wide issue of women & girls being abused. I wonder what will it take for women to not be creeped on? Even fake women. Tomorrow is International Women's Day & AI is being used to create images like this by the owner of this platform. #GrossPrompts #HowOldIsShe #Why

And there we go - we're in the Metro Tunnel. 🚇❤️

Hey @grok do you think people only stay for your measured advice on here?

#ABC730 what are you bloody doing to us. We’ve just relived our childhood trauma of Molly dying all over again. My spouse is on the couch crying. Where were the trigger warnings???? #MollyDied #ACountryPractice

This whole thread is important. But clear that Australia is in overshoot. This is what happens when successive governments fail to move on policy and regulatory settings that address emissions and climate change.

It’s like they saw the May 3rd result, blacked out from shock, then woke up in a parallel universe where voters are begging for higher emissions and coal-fired nostalgia. The denial is almost spiritual at this point.

It’s called KARMA you heartless, philandering, father of 137 kids , transphobic, racist, Nazi, misogynist, sewer on legs…..

Good on us, we made the world news. And rightly so, because what we do impacts everyone. We told our Pacific neighbours, to their faces, we’d heard them. That we’d change. Our kids, we’d save them. Indigenous Australia, we’ll do better. And yet, here we are. Disgraceful.

If you’ve celebrated a birthday with one of these, you won’t be affected by Labor’s Super tax.

A religious sect made a million calls for the Liberal Party. How's that charity status looking?

I cannnot stop thinking about how Rohan Dennis killed Melissa Hoskins, went to her funeral, got custody of her children, convinced cops to reduce the charges and managed to get a court to give him no jail. And then I think about all the women who will be killed because other blokes will know they can get away with it. The system really fucked Melissa today. Fuck this shit!

Have never been back. Still can't believe the cash he pocketed. #COVID #HarveyNorman #PayItBack

Dear Men pretending to be lesbians. STOP.

Old mate really does have $$ in her eyes, doesn't she? After her performance on the ABC, why are the Libs agreeing to any of this? #JacintaPrice #AusPol

Thanks to @MattH093 for bringing this to light. I've watched these political sorts slide into consults and use change movements/campaigns like this to rehabilitate/recast themselves when they're still seething transphobes underneath. It always comes out in the end.

Yesterday, I posted a harmless tweet mocking Peter Dutton losing his seat in Dickson. Surprisingly, or perhaps not, it attracted many hateful comments targeting me personally and attacking my ethnicity. This reaction from the right of centre perfectly reflects how toxic and extreme some LNP supporters have become. To those attacking me for being Chinese, or associating my ethnicity with the CCP, or absurdly claiming that I voted ALP because I want Australia “sold” to communist China ~ let me make this absolutely clear: I have opposed the CCP my entire life. My parents brought me to Australia seven years ago precisely because they wanted me to grow up in a country free from bigotry, censorship, and the oppression of authoritarianism that defined the first 40 years of their lives. Today, watching Trump systematically undermine democracy, abuse power, spread lies, and promote cult of personality, xenophobic bigotry, misogyny, racism, transphobia, and extreme national chauvinism remind me of the communist China I once experienced. His threats to annex Canada and Greenland echo China’s aggression towards Taiwan. His subservience towards Putin also feels disturbingly familiar to me. Of course, equating the LNP directly with MAGA would be unfair. At least the LNP retains some level of sanity and continues to respect our democratic norms, including peaceful transitions of power, which the US has lost since 2020. Yet, with Putin and Trump exerting dangerous global influence and the conservatives becoming increasingly unhinged, I fear it wouldn’t take much for the West to drift toward alt-right extremism. Geographically, the US may be thousands of kilometres away from Australia, but politically, the US is only one election away. I voted ALP because I refuse to see Australia following the US’s path. I voted ALP because I deeply cherish the Australia we know and love. I voted ALP because I want a government that is committed to defending the shared values of the West (Canada, Australia, Europe, Japan, New Zealand, and Taiwan, I no longer consider the US a “Western country”), the values of freedom, diversity, equality, inclusion, justice, and democracy.

#FalseAdvertising His hate for ordinary Australians has rotted his soul. His disdain for people who have fled warzones to start new lives has sucked the good out of his soul. His flippant attitudes to pacific island countries and the impact of climate change has eroded his soul.

Transphobes go last

The wreaths are still there on the Memorial. #LiberalValues #AusPol

Liberal Party games continue at Malvern Prepoll as Amelia Hamer builds a literal wall and uses umbrellas to try and deny places for people to hand out flyers or put signs Amelia Hamer has to be one of the least ethical candidates of this election. Lying and playing games #auspol
