Let me aske the un-askable question. If respecting indigenous culture is so important, why are white, oppressive colonisers denying indigenous Australians their version of justice? The victim is indigenous, the accused is indigenous, the crime was in an indigenous community, and the mob gathered outside the hospital is made up mostly or perhaps entirely of indigenous people... But we're imposing white-man, colonial, oppressive ideas like... 'innocent until proven guilty', like a 'jury of your peers', like having a day in court and a proper defence and not being murdered before trial by a mob of angry locals. Where are the lefties who supported the voice? The ones who condemn us if we question the 'welcome to country'? Those who insist that indigenous culture is inherently virtuous because it got here first... and English civilisation is inherently evil because it took over later? Where are they? When will they speak up in support of handing the accused over to the angry mob? Because right now members of the indigenous community would like to carry out their culturally appropriate form of justice in this case, and it's the evil white man who is stopping them. How dare we!?! But actually the real question is this... if we're all going to agree that western justice is more civilized, that mob justice isn't acceptable even in such an emotionally charged case as this one... then doesn't that means we should also be allowed to ask whether perhaps western civilisation is better in other ways too? Doesn't it beg the question whether English civilisation actually improved Australia? And if not... then why not just hand the accused over the mob? It would stop the riots after all... Yeah, I know, I'm 'evil' just for pointing out the hypocrisy, come at me in the comments.

Yeah well Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples were never asked if they minded being invaded by your pommy ancestors Tony, so shut the fuck up you grifter. Welcome To Country from First Nations people at events is more grace than you racists deserve.
Ryan Dally@Ryandally08

Former PM Tony Abbott on the ‘Welcome to Country’ “We were never asked should we be welcomed to our own country” “We were never asked should we fly 3 flags instead of 1” “The 1 time we were asked with the voice referendum the answer was a resounding no”

Not only did Gina Rinehart buy Pauline Hanson off with $2 million dollars and private plane. Rinehart has bought votes in the parliament against average Australian, workers and their families.

There is something deeply grotesque about being given millions in money and a private jet from Gina. What makes this even worse though, is that Pauline Hanson thought it was classy to rub it in everyone's face. This is the middle finger to every Aussie battler right here. 👇🏼

@MensHumor Clowns! 🤡 Define 'living'? It's as subjective a subject as anything... Is it just rent, or rent/food, or rent/food/power, or rent/food/power/water, or rent/food/power/water/internet...so on and so on You can't do it because the definition hasn't been agreed upon and never will

Martin Gero on the new Amazon Stargate series: "It is not a reboot. It is a brand new chapter. It's its own unique chapter in the Stargate universe." The writers' room started January 12, 2026. Casting is active now. Filming begins in London this fall. Premiere window: late 2027 or early 2028. Gero wrote some of the best Atlantis episodes ever made. Brad Wright, Joseph Mallozzi, Roland Emmerich, and Dean Devlin are all on board. Nolan's production designer Nathan Crowley is handling the look. The franchise that went quiet in 2011 is finally coming back — built by the people who built it the first time. Are you ready to go through the gate again?

@Theblackfemini3 I stopped drinking the Cool-aid during COVID...when I learned of Jordan Peterson. Before that, I supported the likes of Bernie Sanders, and attitudes of ' if you got nothing to hide...' Now I look back at that and think to myself...'oh you poor sweet summer child...'

The opinionated Black woman ~ Aunty
Never in my life have I joined a political party. I was a true leftist I was raised in a Labor voting unionist family. I voted Labor most of my life including Kevin07 (soz for that) in my defense, I was dickbrained 🤪 Gillard was my great awakening. I also turned my dad In 2013 both dad and I voted for Tony Abbott. I loathed Turball, I abstained from voting. I voted for libs (Scotty) because who the hell would want Bill. I voted libs (Dutton) again because who was the one nation candidate? He still got my preference Today, that changed. I am now a proud card carrying member of One Nation.

@KirstiMiller30 Two Aboriginal people standing side by side...brothers from the same parents. One thinks WtC is necessary, the other thinks it's bollocks.... knowing nothing else except both men are Aboriginal and raised by the same parents, who is right, and who is wrong?

My thoughts on Welcome to Country. Aboriginal People have every right to say "fuck off our country" but they choose "Welcome" instead. Aboriginal People are NOT dividing us 🖤💛❤️

I’m really struggling with the ableism regarding NDIS. I was a clinical nurse consultant for 30 years, I’ve paid my taxes. I have multiple sclerosis, it took me a long time to swallow my pride and apply for help. The hate on here makes me feel worthless.

@DeanAbbott @jordanbpeterson People didn't like his message because he proposed responsibility, and change on the individual level...a level at which people often abdicated. And it's never ok to hate on him...he sincerely wanted the best for people!

I know it's cool to hate on him now, but, looking back, @jordanbpeterson was probably one of the best things to happen to the world in the last 20 years.
John Anderson AC@JohnAndersonAC

In this 2018 interview with John Anderson, @jordanbpeterson spoke through tears about a simple, haunting truth: how little encouragement some people need to turn their lives around and how rarely they receive it. Following the recent update from @MikhailaFuller regarding Jordan’s health and his battle with akathisia and neurological injury, these words feel more poignant than ever. Jordan has spent years pouring encouragement into the lives of millions; now, we want to send that same strength back to him. John and the entire team here are praying for our friend Jordan and the Peterson family during this incredibly difficult season. If you are people of prayer, we ask you to do the same. #jordanpeterson #akathisiaawareness #prayerworks #prayer

@TheOzDirector @fandompulse Even though Janeway was a shadow of Sisko, she was still a real Starfleet captain and she commanded respect and authority on her ship. Everything since Enterprise has been a different 'formula' and creators wonder why they keep getting cancelled, Lower Decks being the exception.

@fandompulse He was on Voyager! Can't he see the difference between Janeway commanding the room and some silly blonde lady lying around reading, like she's some 18 year-old chiling in a college dorm? This is what happens when no adults are either able or willing to say, 'This is a shit idea!'

Robert Picardo blames audiences for not understanding Gene Roddenberry's "values" as to why Star Trek: Starfleet Academy was canceled: "Gene Roddenberry's values, [but] was out of step with today's changing political and cultural climate."Every NuTrek show is canceled. The sets are demolished. Kurtzman's contract expires this year. Andy Weir called the shows "shit" on the Critical Drinker podcast. What values is he talking about?

Star Trek actor Wil Wheaton posts a bizarre rant at Tucker Carlson: "Hi Tucker Carlson. It's me, a normal person who you mocked and bullied when we tried to warn you about all of this, who doesn't have your wealth and privilege to insulate himself from the consequences of your support for a criminal.Yep, you fucked up. Yep, you were wrong. Glad you are finally aware. No, you are not forgiven. No, you are not welcomed with open arms. You can go fuck yourself, you opportunistic coward. Have the day your voted for. 😘" What causes a person to act this arrogant?

What I would do if I were in charge of Star Trek (but seriously): Solicit pitches from writers who have never worked on Trek, episodic format, no legacy characters, no explicit sequels/prequels. Pick the best pitch, hire a diverse cast/crew, let 'em make their show. That's it.
