@gjm1508 @simonahac Yes.
Big miners steal our resources and give us scraps.
We shouldn't offer them handouts too.
The millions of litres of diesel they burn still cook the planet.

@simonahac Hang on … it’s either a rebate for off-road vehicles and equipment or not.
Do you just want to prejudice some businesses just because you don’t like them??

congratulations punters! for 3 months you'll get 1/2 the discount on fuel excise that gina gets every day!
(i support fuel excise exemptions for farmers & small-medium businesses, but any business claiming they *need* more than $50m in exemptions is having a lend of taxpayers.)

@CarsonsXKim @Abesnewat @DaveMilbo Word salad.
Suffering from gender dysphoria and making a personal choice to transition to be happier does not harm the revolutionary cause in any way.
Full support and solidarity to all trans comrades.
English
@Abesnewat @DaveMilbo And the Greens support transgender ideology- a Jewish funded
globalist transhuman, top down billionaire anti-materialist Doctrine.

Question: Why do you think the Australian Greens can't seem to bust out of the 10-14% range of the vote? Hostile media? Too beuigose? Their candidates? Their messaging? Their Their name? Is Australia just innately pro-war, pro-racism, pro-fossil fuels? The party seems stuck.
English
@Abesnewat @DaveMilbo Like sure, list IRGC as terrorists, right below the government's of every NATO country and Israel.
English
@DaveMilbo The greens are mild reformists who refuse to let go of the idea of being labour’s deputy sheriff like Gillard/Brown.
They supported the listing of the IRGC as terrorists, supported regime change in Iran/Syria etc
We need revolutionary change, and they don’t want it.
English
@vulgarboatman @unionistsaa Calling people settlers is a good way to turn 98% of the population against you and never see any change.
All the settlers who made a conscious choice to move here and help establish the colony have been dead for well over 100 years.
English
@unionistsaa They're a party of settlers legitimising the colonial system after all
English
Not that I will be ever vote green but zero attempt to reach out to poc communities is a big issue. Most POC communities will tell you the greens are a white party for middle class whites and they’d be rights.

@0bsfromafar @DaveMilbo The greens: Labor's support for baby killing is disgusting. We propose a 15% levy on baby killing.
Not a super compelling argument imo.
They correctly identify what the ALP/LNP do that is bad, but only suggest minor corrections.
This does not energise people to get behind them.

@kazza264 @DaveMilbo You would have 0 queer rights if not for loud, "divisive" protestors. What an empty head you have.
English
@DaveMilbo 1 They protest too much
2 They are divisive
3 They attack anyone that doesn't agree with them (ME)
4 There policies are not thought through properly
5 They yell and scream
6 They don't listen to others
Not sure whether you wanted the truth or not?
English
@0bsfromafar @DaveMilbo Greens don't seem interested in this. They're capitalist reformists, they won't call for this rotten system to be thrown out.
English
The MSM and decades of their bullshit propaganda. Until the media billionaire club is decimated then nothing will change. Red and Blue (and the stupid orange) is all we will get and most of us know now that means we get corporations and billionaires wishes with a reduction of public services.
English
@padspencer @DaveMilbo "the majority" are workers or on welfare, the bosses and capitalists who rob them are a small minority who run the country.
You're being mislead by right wing news.
English
@DaveMilbo Because The Greens are full of children with immature policies. People see them as only taking away from what's been established without any consideration for the status quo. Yes it has to to change, but you can't win support by taking from the majority, or seeming to.
English
@DaveMilbo No interest in taking power.
No interest in getting out on the streets and convincing people that a better way is possible.
Too comfortable and interested in following rules created to make sure they never see power.
English
@GoGoGuillotines @CantEverDie This is a capitalism problem caused by capitalism. Rents don't triple just because of new demand under socialism.
English
@CantEverDie NYC is the global economic capital. Are you a degrowther? Creating jobs means more people. More people means increased demand. Increased demand means new buildings need to be built. If they aren’t areas are moved into. Even if they are *the new buildings need to go somewhere*

my hot take on gentrification is the average person doesn’t understand that gentrification isn’t usually a function of individuals, but of big business restructuring neighborhoods, so gentrification takes often sounds indistinguishable from far right anti-immigrant sentiments
English
@smokincrater501 @Abesnewat "putting their lives on the line" for what? To protect Israel and USA from paying for the illegal war they started? Shut up.
English
@Abesnewat Go fuck yourself, wanker. That's your fellow Australians you're talking about. The very people putting their lives on the line, so you can post this vile shit drivel.
English
Hopefully we’ll see the wedgetail clipped like this soon.
This country needs to learn a lesson it should’ve learned 110+ years ago
Armchair Warlord@ArmchairW
It'll buff right out. Looks like a precise hit directly under the radome - not blast, fragmentation or incendiaries from a strike nearby. Very possibly a drone with optical targeting.
English
@MrRexPatrick What nonsense to say we haven't joined the war?
If you hold someone's hands behind their back while they are beaten up, can you say you're not involved? Our wedgetail aircraft is there to neuter Iran's ability to strike back.
Pine gap is involved.
Australia is complicit.
English
With Australia not joining the fight in Iran, notions that transferring US nuclear subs to Australia will not impact US capability have been put into serious doubt. Trump certainly noticed! Is the Iran War the start of the end of #AUKUS? #auspol michaelwest.com.au/us-war-on-iran…

@champagnesftboi We fucking deserve it and I hope it gets hit.
Joining this illegal war is fucked.

Australians should be prepared to see the surveillance aircraft we’ve sent destroyed
Babak Taghvaee - The Crisis Watch@BabakTaghvaee1
BREAKING: According to this satellite image taken by Landsat 8/9, it appears that, in addition to the KC-135R Stratotankers of the U.S. Air Force, at least one or two E-3G Sentry AWACS has also been destroyed in the ballistic missile strike carried out by the IRGC Aerospace Force at Prince Sultan Air Base, Saudi Arabia, on March 27, 2026. In fact, it appears that, the primary target of the IRGCASF was the E-3Gs of the USAF parked there, not the KC-135Rs. However, they also managed to destroy several KC-135Rs. What makes this even more personal for me is that I had previously met and photographed those E-3G Sentry AWACS aircraft weeks before start of this war for my book on Op. Epic Fury. #OperationEpicFury #OperationLionsRoar

@gnostic_bf We almost all got to just vibe through covid never happening here and the only thing we would have missed out on was overseas trips.
But nah, had to let some shitty cruise ships dock for a few $$
Thanks Liberal party that was tops

People have already forgotten that during covid WA was basically attempting a quiet-quit of the Commonwealth, and probably would've eventually succeeded if covid era restrictions went on a little longer

Perth, Australia is surrounded by 1500kms of desert and endless oceans in every direction There are only 3 highways in or out if the Australian fuel supply chain breaks these 2.5 million people are going to be all alone.

Chris Minns's goons are still harrassing people weeks after the police riot in Sydney on February 9.
No cops have faced any consequences for their violence, but as the police media release notes, 16 more anti-genocide protesters have been charged since the initial round.

Awful, heartbreaking, unacceptable
We’ve just been at the funeral of two young volunteer paramedics in southern Lebanon - killed in a direct Israeli strike… one was only 16 years old
They were killed whilst wearing their full kit according to witnesses - returning from the scene of an earlier strike
The deliberate targeting of healthcare workers is a war crime but Israel has killed dozens here in recent weeks (and many more in 2024 and in Gaza)
