QED Tyranny

'Writers understand the importance of free speech and civilized debate... that protecting a space for nuance and complexity is vital to our civic life...that silencing voices with which you disagree is the first step towards tyranny'. Politicians and their advisors are herding us into tyranny.

Every arts festival, large or small is likely now thinking, and probably, second guessing/self censoring as a result of this extraordinarily public cuffing and gagging.

There is no possible excuse for militarising policing in any Australian society, especially so if such militarisation involves permitting a private enterprise with links to foreign intelligence cabals to be armed in public.

Earlier this year, a Jewish Australian soldier in our army was stripped of his security clearance after he admitted he participated in these CSG training camps. He also said that CSG directed him to lie to ASIO about it to avoid further scrutiny of its activities. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

An officer in the Australian Army has been stripped of his security clearance because Asio believes he is more loyal to Israel than Australia, and at risk of being exploited by the Mossad.
The man told Asio interviewers he did not view Israel as a foreign government and that he would share classified information with the Israel Defense Forces if they asked for it.

Despite threats, billionaires don't leave the largest population centers, because it's where there is the most money to be had from the collective value generated by human beings, and despite what they insist, they don't generate wealth; they collect it.

Tires (not straws) are a top source of microplastic pollution. As they wear down, toxic particles wash from roads into waterways and harm wildlife. But scientists have found a cheap fix: biofilters made from wood chips and plant waste. Our story republished by PBS Newshour: buff.ly/neA7FZv.

One of the biggest microplastic pollution sources isn’t straws or grocery bags – it’s your tires
Rain storms wash those tire shards into streams and ultimately into lakes and oceans. That’s bad news for fish and other aquatic life.
