A reminder that when Christian Zionists and Christian Nationalists in the West talk about Christians, they are not talking about the Christians of the same holy land that Jesus himself came from. They don't give a shit about us.

but also Murdoch knows the value of propaganda. he's entirely willing to lose money on rags X Y Z to push his & his investors & big advertisers agendas.
the Dirty Digger lost money on The Australian for decades, coincidentally using it to defend his bigger Foxtel & Sky gold mines.

our king has real power but exercises it much more within norms, maybe easy to do given existing wealth. if Charles was as foetid & mad as Donnie, that'd be the test.

Remember guys, you can’t afford a gas rig, or a coal mine, or a nuclear power station, but you can afford to put some cheap solar panels on your roof.

That’s why the fossil fuel industry has spent billions trying to kill renewable energy.

The dealer needs to keep you addicted.

β€˜No middle ground’: Israelis back Iran war, despite taking mounting hits Most Israelis back war, a poll suggests, as genocidal rhetoric returns, and opponents face threats and violence.

β€œIsrael has become a society with no middle ground, no capacity for conversation. It’s as if our entire existence is dependent on our ability to do anything we want. And if the world tries to stop that, then the world’s anti-Semitic, and we all burn.”

Actress Sheryl Underwood, an Air Force Reserve veteran, is asking the questions we all want answers to.

I read about the US-Israeli bombing of oil depots causing horrific polluted rain across Iran. Iranians have reportedly been experiencing breathing difficulties and headaches.
If you work in environmental or social justice, we must stand against war and for peace. No war! #nowar

The Albanese Labor Government is supporting bombing a country, then preventing people fleeing that violence from seeking safety here.

It is wicked.

Muslims traumatised after right-wing attack on community dinner A Muslim community in Ballarat is left traumatised after a man barged into a community dinner allegedly throwing punches and yelling abuse.

The man was told to move on. No charges were laid. Wtaf.

half to two thirds that cost here in Melb Au.

then there's the air quality benefits, and the disconnecting gas savings, as heating is often the last biggest user.

maybe because demand (? data centres) is outstripping renewables growth?

Politicians campaign on their ability to do difficult things, then when elected, tell us difficult things can’t be done.

Doing difficult things is what politicians are for. Let’s remind them of this every time they tell us difficult things can’t be done.

Good to know the name of the leading hater in this ugly story: Shane Shmuel CPA, employed by Polar Enviro. They make the green kibble that washes off bike paths, and footpath lights that last for a week. Local & State govt be their biggest customers, i'd guess.

important question. public media is an essential service, ABC is still useful during emergencies.

but purging the Zionists and pro US war mongers will take stronger politicians than LibLabs offer.

this. we live under totalitarian capitalism, and no Serious People will allow the consideration let alone existence of other systems. Capitalism powered by renewables will destroy our biosphere and civilisation just the same.
