I wrote not too long ago about the scapegoating playbook that Dutton & other politicians adhere to. It’s too easy. Cruel and divisive, & it emboldens others. It’s disgraceful what happened today during the Welcome to Country at Melb’s Dawn Service. Australia, we are better than this #anzacday

The Scapegoating Playbook, strategy of cruelty from the insecure alpha. I’ve seen it play out in friend groups, families (Prince Harry,) workplaces & of course, in our political realm. Picking on the scapegoated Othered, for the sake of a group’s cohesion. Too easy,incredibly damaging. Latest column

Brilliant! But it's not a "new world order" - it's the same old one that's been grumbling along under the woodwork this whole time.

First column of the year … on Trump, feminism, the ABC and all things witchy (or silverback.) May we thrive in ‘25. Somehow.

"The tree they eventually chose was 80 metres tall — higher than a 26-storey building...[There were] times when the tree and the climbers in it would be buffeted by 80 kilometre per hour wind gusts...We strung up more than 3,000 fairy lights" www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12...
