This article by @abcnews should be retracted in full, and an apology should be issued. 8 million Australians are not receiving 'income support'. The study relied on here openly counts accessing sick leave entitlements as a form of 'income support'.

This is absolutely huge and the article is BURSTING with revelations of editorial and journalistic malpractice by the ABC. I tried to screenshot them all and they won't fit. All strength to the arms of everyone who stood up today.

Kevin I need to be so real with you right now. The thoughts of *all* Australians are not with the family of a random right-wing commentator they've never heard of on the other side of the fucking world.

The death of Charlie Kirk today is deeply distressing. There is no space for political violence in any democracy. My thoughts, and those of all Australians, are with his family and loved ones.

What is the charge? Enjoying a slur? A succulent anti-white slur?

A targeting system called '"Where's Daddy?"' is among the strongest prima facie evidence of genocidal intent the world has ever seen.

Getting real sick of people who keep insisting that the IDF doesn't deliberately target civilians.

Imagine being so racist that you hallucinate an Islamic extremist terrorist attack with zero evidence and then subsequently decide to continue to hallucinate it in the face of literally every single piece of evidence that is revealed

It is a breach of the Geneva conventions for Israel to disseminate these interviews. Israel has an extensive record of torture, coercion and falsification regarding Palestinian prisoners, which they will often proudly boast about.
