  • Money, power and politics: Who really wins in Australia’s democracy?

    Money, power and politics: Who really wins in Australia’s democracy?
    Nov 22 2024
    We explore the proposed reforms to Australia’s donation laws and ask: who really benefits from these changes? The climate wars rage on, with the latest battle centred on the government’s delayed 2035 emissions reduction targets. Meanwhile, the Albanese government attempts to outflank the Liberal Party with increasingly hardline policies on immigration and asylum seekers. And, the Senate equates a political protest against the King with acts of homophobia, racism, and bigotry, raising critical questions about fairness and media bias in Australia’s political landscape. #auspol

  • The ridiculous social media ban and exporting Israel violence

    The ridiculous social media ban and exporting Israel violence
    Nov 15 2024
    We explore the government’s controversial plan to target under-16s with a social media ban, explore the continued media manipulation surrounding Israel, and examine why football violence seems to receive a troubling level of acceptance when perpetrated by racist Israeli football hooligans. Meanwhile, the mainstream media stirs up excitement over an early election that, in reality, shows no signs of materialising. May 2025, that’s when it’s going to held, and not likely to be before. #auspol #NoAgeBan

  • The Return of the American Conman

    The Return of the American Conman
    Nov 8 2024
    We analyze the aftermath of the US election, where Donald Trump’s victory signals the return of the conman, criminal and clown show. Vote Dutton, Get Rinehart? We ask if voting for Peter Dutton is bringing Gina Rinehart’s influence into federal politics, and the answer is probably “yes”. We also cover the current state of the economy, proposed changes to HECS debt policies, and the continued shortcomings of the National Anti-Corruption Commission, which has yet to meet public expectations. #auspol

Feels very biased.

I'm tired of activists posing as journalists, and have little patience for it. The following is filler designed to meet the requirements of an audible review.
