I think I’ll flip my lid if I hear another One Nation voter say: ‘Pauline is just saying what the voters are thinking.’ You moronic knuckle draggers listen up. Pauline is saying what the people who don’t care about you want you to hear.

August was the hottest month in global history and yet, NSW has just approved the biggest coal mine expansion ever proposed in the state. It is scandalous that Australia is leading negotiations at global climate talks, including in the Pacific next week.

Imagine if Australians were not obsessed with transferring wealth between us through real estate but instead traded and invested in business that grew wealth.

Im sick of nerds who design useless apps, dangerous Ai, & the latest - robots that jump into furnaces because they didn’t want their tech copied. Besides wouldn’t it be cool to do a stunt like this? No. We threw fruit at you at school for a reason. We knew you didn’t fit in get society back then.

Pete Hegseth just announced a new section of the US military - the Religious Affairs Office. Christian Nationalists have control of the most powerful military and economy which puts us all at risk.

So lower inflation announced today and it is now expected interest rates won’t be raised again in Nov. The oil crisis has been credited to the inflation too. So all the right wing media noise about Gov spending is evaporating.

The faux outrage crew are attacking national anthems today on 2SM Radio as they try to claim leftists are changing the anthem. It’s day after day of rage baiting and nationalism stuff. They really upset vulnerable people. That’s cruel.

So Ai Data centre spending is so significant it’s causing inflation and Ai is causing many other issues like taking people’s jobs. And we pay the banks with higher interest rates and higher unemployment so tech bros make more $. Makes perfect sense. 🤦‍♂️

The US rejecting the President of the Palestinian Authority a visa to attend the UN General Assembly in New York should see Australia publicly express concern, advocate for a two state solution, increase discussions with the Palestinian Authority. Maybe the UN should move if Trump wins midterms?

It feels like Labor are not going to be changing the overall immigration numbers a lot as they have already dropped considerably. But they will tighten the rules on students, overstayers, etc. It feels like a nod to One Nation but not. Do you agree with my first read?
