Well, that’s fucking ridiculous 🙄 I just can’t with Auspol. Labor’s disappointing, Greens could step up but the messaging’s also disappointing. Not enough Independents. We need to challenge all policy and messaging. Where’s the courageous leadership!?!?!?

A political party isn’t a team like a footy team. It’s why America is where it’s at, not enough swinging voters, rusted ons voting for a “team” bearing little semblance to their values or lives. Rigid thinkers rust on regardless of where their party leads them, like a cult.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

I’ve an open mind when it comes to voting (Centrist/swing). I analyse each party, good policy,fuck ups & avoidance of hard policy. Kudos to ALP for some great policy disappointed for avoiding difficult policy (FO with diplomacy). Great leaders are courageous and initiatiate change. #auspol

OpenAI agent breached Medicare, Albanese reveals

An artificial intelligence agent developed by OpenAI hacked Medicare this year, in a breach that Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has labelled “unacceptable”.

I'm just asking people to boycott Google for bowing to Nazis. Duck Duck Go doesn't roll over for fascists, doesn't track you, and doesn't sell your data. (I have no connection to DDG. Just a user who hates collaborators.)

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Thanks for that. It’s important to acknowledge how constituents feel and the disenfranchisement. It’s a common theme, not unusual but the voices of disenfranchisement are growing.

In my opinion we elect locals to represent that area & think they'd have our backs. We have no fucking say in how that party elect leaders, ect. Ministerial roles seem to be used as leverage/ rewards for party loyalty not a better future

Controversial perspective. Is a One Nation Supporter any different from a rusted on supporter of any other political party in Australia. Let’s discuss the similarities and differences. I’d love some real debate here as I’m genuinely curious. #auspol

Further to my tribalism discussion relating to the intersect between cult, political beliefs, cultural beliefs, religious beliefs. If a business adhered to a rigid doctrine (tribal, whether it be a rigid political doctrine, religious doctrine, cultural doctrine) Would that business survive?

Is tribalism the same across culture, football/soccer teams, religion, political affiliation? Let’s discuss as I see the pattern which I suspect is why things stagnate and when change is required, we end up accepting the status quo. #auspol

I also need to address your list. Integrity commission (Brereton/ Kathryn Campbell FAIL) AUKUS = fail GAZA and standing up for the murder of Australian aid workers = massive FAIL. Gambling advertising = FAIL Taxing raw gas, pre processing (We own it) Other than that they’re better than LNP.

I’ve usually voted Labor too. Many of Labor’s policies aligned with my values. Love some of their policy (GCT even though it means I have a large tax bill, fair enough). Raising wages in aged care/disability, major ✅ I’m with you on all the other issues.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

3/3 Spare me “they’re better than anything on offer” or “gawd, don’t throw the baby out with the bath water” NO. We have free will, aren’t tribal or cultish, we can ask for what we believe will benefit all Australians & call out the powers that be. At the end of the day, they represent us.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Tribalism = my team. Your team can change. Republicans in the US, a perfect example. They’re in the death throws of defending their ideology and are so rigid in their thinking that any criticism of Trump (replace any leader here) is an affront to themselves. A total lack of awareness.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Political tribalism fascinates me. Maybe because I’m Centrist/swinging voter. For transparency, I’m progressive in my values. Times change, values through parties change- the cultish aspect of “I’m a …. replace with LNP, LAB” whether we label it as “rusted on” or “my team” is perplexing. 1/2

Yep but hopefully feels the ineptitude when he’s seated and out of his depth.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

He’s looking at a massive learning curve and will no doubt face imposter syndrome, be out of his depth. I love this for him as it’s all shits and giggles until you have to do your job. In saying that, he may replicate Pauline and do FO for his constituents, they’re the ones I feel for.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

He’s admitted to a past of cocaine use which is admirable in terms of transparency. Scrubbing it, however isn’t transparent. Not sure he understands basic debate/protocols of debate or what his requirements are in the Legislative Assembly or what that even is!?

An insider candidate, unpopular federal and state decisions and non-decisions impacting locally and a campaign tightly controlled by government (Cook). WA and national media promoting One Nation - recipe for an unsurprising Labor defeat.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

That’s an insightful context, thank you.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

“Candidate “, “Woodside Lobbyist”. I can see why the left, progressive Labor voters are triggered. You can’t mock people’s values. I think it’s more about One Nation harnassing the disillusionment, the electorate is facing some huge challenges, the sitting govt (majority) will always cop it.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Unfortunately they are unable to think critically, they always drop to the lowest common denominator. Often, they can’t think only feel. One Nation trigger their negative emotions which is all they’re capable of understanding.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

The electorate’s facing a housing crisis, high crime rates, social issues. They blame Labor which has a massive majority in the state parliament, even though some of it’s federal. One Nation would probably exacerbate their problems but the “sticking it to Labor” was clearly the motivation.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

Unfortunately One Nation have captured the Australian news cycle. There’s no such thing as bad publicity.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

It’s gobsmacking really.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

I think that was the biggest factor left leaning Labor cohort.

Luke Herdegen wins the seat of Secret Harbour in a by-election for One Nation. Not unexpected in that demographic, but still concerning. #auspol

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

Gawd - you can’t compare Australia to Canada, completely different trading partners, commodities and resources. I don’t think anyone wants Australia to start a trade war, I just see appreciation for Carney’s leadership and character.

Treacy @treacy.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

Regardless, give Carney some credit.
