Palantir's CEO published a manifesto arguing Western tech firms have a "moral debt" to US military dominance, that AI weapons are inevitable, and that "some cultures are dysfunctional." This isn't just a regularly evil tech or defence contractor, it’s a fascist political project.

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country? Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.

21. It is possible that Ms Bezzina formulated some or all of her submissions herself. However, at one stage before the Registrar on
20 October 2025, where there had been discussion concerning whether both of her summonses could be listed on the same day, Ms Bezzina is recorded as saying that "I have been talking with my constitutional expert" (transcript, 20 October 2025, p 6 line 28). If there is a "constitutional expert" advising Ms Bezzina who is a natural person, it may be as well to say, with no disrespect whatsoever to Ms Bezzina, that the constitutional submissions she has been prevailed upon to advance are legal nonsense. If he or she is charging a fee and is not a legal practitioner, he or she is committing a serious offence. Section 10 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law makes it an offence for someone other than a
"qualified entity" to engage in legal practice in his jurisdiction, and imposes a maximum penalty of 250 penalty units and imprisonment for 2 years. If the "constitutional expert" is a legal practitioner, there is a sound basis for reporting him or her to the appropriate regulatory body. Alternatively, if the "constitutional expert" is a large language model such as ChatGPT, then Ms Bezzina would be well advised to ask a lawyer, including at a community legal centre, for a second opinion.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

Says a lot of The Australian's world view that "celebrating trans experience" is "extreme" and needs a counterpoint apparently.
BBC reporting on transsexual issues had been captured by an interventionist specialist LGBTQ desk with extreme views that had led to a "constant drip-feed" of features "celebrating the trans experience without adequate balance or objectivity".

1. BREAKING Authorities in Manchester, England, where the attack against Jewish worshippers at a synagogue took place yesterday, say that two of the victims were accidentally shot by police as they tried to stop the attacker from getting inside the synagogue.
.....The Home Office Pathologist has advised that he has provisionally determined, that one of the deceased victims would appear to have suffered a wound consistent with a gunshot injury.
It is currently believed that the suspect, Jihad Al Shamie, was not in possession of a firearm and the only shots fired were from GMP's Authorised Firearms Officers as they worked to prevent the offender from entering the synagogue and causing further harm to our Jewish community. It follows therefore, that subject to further forensic examination, this injury may sadly have been sustained as a tragic and unforeseen consequence of the urgently required action taken by my officers to bring this vicious attack to an end.
We have also been advised by medical professionals that one of the three victims currently receiving treatment in hospital, has also suffered a gunshot wound, which is mercifully not life threatening. It is believed that both victims were close together behind the synagogue door, as worshippers acted bravely to prevent the attacker from gaining entry...."
