'No votes for genocide'

Reckon I'll just post quotes from Banksy. The same quote.

Give the people what they want.

@railmaps

Concerned. Biden administration repeatedly using the word 'concerned' in the disturbed and troubled sense, or are they relying on the interested and involved definition.

Because doing fuck all to stop genocide while handing out weapons to commit it strongly suggests the latter.

'It will receive our attention,' Treasurer Jim Chalmers, 28 October 2024.

While we wait, and wait ... and wait, for Labor's gambling ad reforms, gambling companies make out like a politician with three negatively geared investment properties.

Since February 2022, 633 children have been killed in Ukraine.

Since October 2023, 16930 children have been killed in Palestine.

The US and its allies arm Ukraine to defend against Russia. The US and its allies arm Israel to 'defend' against Palestine.

Seems war Criminal, and alleged domestic criminal, Benjamin Netanyahu has taken a personal interest in murdering Palestinians rather than just a detached one.

When other nations judge Australia by our allies they can rightly find us barbaric.

Hard being King and jetting around the world with billions in assets when those pesky colonialists keep raising the topic of how you got so rich.

Need advice on self-publishing

Staring at a drafted oped I'd previously have fired off to old media and have to go through all that bullshit

Europeans always paid much better but their interest in Australian politics is pretty low

Old media in Australia aren't even offering cash any more unless you're good mates with the features editor, or are on staff and even then its just expected as part of your regular gig

Also, fuck them

So, need a platform for publishing text, probably with an illustrative image to jazz it up ...

• No Patreon style begging, no buy-me-a-coffee bullshit
• No app
• No tracking or metrics or 'back end' bla bla
• No ads
• No privacy concerns for the audience
• Just a clean, simple, open platform that scales itself to web or tablet or phone and can be shared with ease, probably via a simple URL

Does this exist? Where do I find it?

Thanks in advance if you can help

As delegates walked out in protest, others booed and a group in the gallery roared approval, Netanyahu called protestors evil, attacked the International Criminal Court and declared the murder of half-a-hundred thousand Palastians and Lebanese as 'winning'. Attendance at the assembly was notable by the many empty seats.

Netanyahu compared the rebuilding of Gaza to the reconstruction of defeated Nazis Germany in 1945.

'It's inconceivable, it's ridiculous. It didn't happen then, and it's not going to happen now.'

The alleged war-crimal displayed no shame or inclination to stop committing and fermenting further war, labelling it a 'sacred mission'

Netanyahu's only stated condition for a cessation of the attacks was the return of hostages from the horrendous Oct 7 massacres of Israelis, many of those hostages already confirmed killed by Israeli shelling and on some occasions, direct small weapons fire.

Most chillingly, Netanyahu foreshadowed the all out bombardment of Lebanese citizens.

'They place [rockets] in schools, in hospitals, in apartment buildings, and in the private homes of the citizens of Lebanon ... they put a missile in *every* kitchen, a rocket in *every* garage.'

The speech gave no indication of regret or empathy for those already slaughtered and every indication the Israeli Govt under Netanyahu intends to escalate hostilities as tanks and troops currently amass on the Lebanese border.

If *any* other nation set off thousands of personalised bombs which appear to have been designed to blind their carriers, the Australian Govt would rightly condemn the action in the strongest terms and call in that nation's ambassador, if not eject them outright

So far in Australia, we have a travel warning #auspol #gaza #lebanon

'Lebanese Public Health Minister Firass Abiad said damage to the hands and face made up the majority of injuries.

'Speaking to the BBC's Newshour programme, he said: "Most of the injuries appear to be to the face and especially to the eyes ..." '

IDF has reportedly blinded hundreds, possibly more. By design. The pagers reportedly sent a message before exploding, enticing people to look at them #gaza

As opposed to the slavish treatment of Democrats by 'their old media'

From a foreign perspective, it's a tribal shitshow and good luck trying to read or watch anything coming out of the US that isn't biased one way or the other with the possible exception of PBS, but even then ...

Fortunately, there's Deutsche Welle, Radio Netherlands, Al Jezeera, Agence France-Presse, Reuters and a ton of other agencies with little skin in the game that can be reasonably relied on to attempt to report the US election accurately #uspol

Labor govt fumbling the shit out of gambling reform, point black telling their own members to go fuck themselves

For what? They're not wedged. Smashing New Tobacco is one of the least topical issues going. Consensus and votes should be easy to get ...

So why champion these arseholes? All quite bizarre #auspol

Rowland's backed down against the gambling lobby now? Really is proving kind of gutless or particularly right wing. She from the right faction?

Time for a deep - oh, corporate fucking lawyer who represented ... Channel Fucking Nine? Ran a suit team for Nine. From 2007 to 2010 she was seconded directly to Nine

This is our Communications Minister. Channel Nine's former corporate lawyer. How the fuck did no-one highlight that? #auspol
