PRESS RELEASE - Dangerous Overreach The Australian Lobby Group condemns actions of the Albanese government in its announcement of new extreme censorship laws it intends to force through parliament next week. This egregious overstep threatens the fundamental rights of ALL Australians and their ability to express themselves civilly as well as access uncensored information. A nation cannot claim it is a democracy where the free exchange of ideas is censored. The Prime Minister himself once made a similar statement. The actions of the Prime Minister will result in further damage to the social cohesion he claims to seek to enforce with these sweeping new laws.

I wonder if people have modelled a simple DCA program. What happens when you buy gold weekly? If you accept that we are in an ongoing and arguably accelerating stage of fiat currency debasement, why would you continue saving in dollars?
Liquid Noble@liquidnoblegold

Gold prices continue to climb, reaching A$6,116.81 per ounce on the 7th of October 2025. A reminder of why many Australians see gold as a timeless store of value and stability. #Gold #Australia #PreciousMetals #Bullion

@SmilaZParadis It's a beautiful country. Our political class seems to be working very hard to make life here increasingly difficult and unstable.

@scottjbarr This all exited polish acquaintance started sending me (so many) photos from Australia now. She finally went to visit (fulfilling her dream). So now, admittedly, I'd have a severe problem with what's going on if this was my country!

@SmilaZParadis I love that "nothing to hide" argument. There are many places all over the world where people cannot discuss ideas or share thoughts and opinions with fear or repercussions from authorities. I'm watching the UK with great interest right now. Australia is following.

@scottjbarr Saying that one has ★NOTHING TO HIDE ★ is totally missing the point. Being able to speak privately and anonymously is common nature and happens to be important for the human psyche.

@SmilaZParadis It's a mess. Many people have the idea that debating a topic is a bad thing. An idea that can't withstand scrutiny is weak idea. People need to be able to speak freely, and that necessitates being able to speak privately and anonymously.

@wayotworld That's quite the generalisation. Yes it's tough. Tougher than it has ever been. Boomers are the straw man. A distraction created to keep you in place. For better results, think about directing your energy at the underlying issues. Boomers came from a time of "sound money".

Why can't boomers grasp the fact that every generation that came after them has it far more difficult than they did?

Can anyone build the following smart contract on BSV? The user sends the equivalent to $50 of BSV and receives $50 of MNEE. BSV <-> MNEE

@sabhlok Fair point. Blind support is never going to end well. The criticism here seems to be at Trump. Anyone holding USD (or any other "major" currency) took a massive hit. What specifically are they breaking? DOGE cutting waste? Trying to reduce massive money supply expansion?

HERO WORSHIP IS BLIND: HITLER AND STALIN WERE WILDLY POPULAR DESPITE ACTIVELY DESTROYING THEIR OWN COUNTRIES Just like the leftists of the world had severe totalitarian derangement during covid, the "conservatives" of USA are having severe totalitarian derangement today. - Everything that Fauci said was blindly supported by American leftists during covid. - Everything that Trump and Musk are saying today is being BLINDLY supported by American "conservatives". Not MAGA but DestroyAmerica, is today's actual "movement". There is not one chance in a trillion that Trump's policies will "make America great again". They are breaking all laws of economics - AND THAT'S NOT SOMETHING ANYONE SHOULD TRY.

The sign of an ineffective organization: Managers/leaders don't ask tons of questions. Instead, they spend most of their energy on maintaining appearances

@KarlTheProgrmr Yes skin deep it sounds great. Most people won't argue with "fair". e.g. I agree that "essential" social programs should exist. Socialists bend "fair" until we reach our current state, which is insane spending, broken economies and societies, and the destruction of wealth.

@scottjbarr 💯 Socialism sounds great on the surface and attracts a lot of people who can't see beyond the initial ideal of fairness and equality to the results it leads to. Hopefully it works out in the US and others follow suit. 🤞

What is the argument here? Saying no-one from the executive branch, which these agencies are under, should have access to the data needed to audit it can't be the argument. That is completely illogical. Are they claiming that more than the required amount of access is being given? That DOGE could audit with less access? Or are they just saying that they don't trust Elon and they would like someone else to do the audit?

I want to save billions of your money and make our government more efficient. Rummaging through your personal shit is *not* that. A party of chaos loses—always.

@KarlTheProgrmr You're very lucky. It has begun. Over here in Australia, there is no political will to reduce gov spending. The answer to all spending problems is to spend even more on new and existing programs that don't benefit citizens. Socialism sucks.

@KarlTheProgrmr I love his claim. But, the Dems spent increasingly large sums on programs that dont benefit the US. To be fair, all prior govs had a hand in this. Spending has been unaccountable to citizens, and nobody voted to fund these programs. It's audit time, or become a failed state.
