What chills most here is the absolute, total silence from most global leaders, from the UN and the Amerikan Congress
𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 - 𝐀𝐥𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐞, 𝐖𝐨𝐧𝐠, 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐞𝐬, 𝐋𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐑 - 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫
A silence that condones aggression, violence, threats and the total up-ending of international law and order
WTF
A dose of authoritarianism might be the push they need ... the problem being, as Amerika is showing, once you go down that path, it is virtually impossible to escape it
I'm not going to make excuses for any voter that rolls up at a polling booth uninformed and unable to articulate why democracy is important and to. understand their role in it.
We all have a stake in this - together
I read the other day that Trump is not always totally wrong.
Don't get me wrong - I hate trump and everything he stands for
The challenge he poses to global leaders and order is a true test for people, governments, corporations and how we address existential threats
So far I think we're failing!
That's what I hope we can all achieve here over the next 2 years!
I've appreciated your support and comments and engagement in these issues
And surprisingly, the rest of Labor with its principles and promises turned out to be a whole hollow con!
Like a balloon pricked with a pin .. the whole thing exploded in a bang and disappeared!
Very reasonable!
Are there enough of us?
The last election showed no. The mass majority fled - AGAIN - to the duopoly.
They elected to go with IDEOLOGY, not SOLUTIONS
GOLDSTEIN even voted for GENOCIDE in Gaza .. !
Exactly .. it all went over Albanese's head!
The duopoly has never understood the potential to be a middle power in our region
Ask our regional neighbours what they REALLY think of Australia!

Media strategies that focus on fringe controversy fuelled by the need for attention, can normalise and elevate extremist views, ultimately leading to their success
That's dangerous

Grievance politics, fuels fear and anger, blaming others for personal struggles.
The Duopoly clings to outdated strategies, fails to meet the needs of voters and changing global demands.

Now that Albanese has abandoned the international rule of law and approves the killing of leaders, the carpet bombing of cities etc and, knowing our complicity makes us a legitimate target in a similar way ..
Maybe we should re-think the building of data centres in suburbs where people live?

Fair call
I was referring to his comments about Middle powers and our missed opportunities to be a middle power in our region
That’s way above Albanese’s head - the duopoly never attempted to understand our region
That was the vote 4 years ago - NOT the last vote
In the last vote EVERY VOTER knew exactly what they were going to get from Labor
Now, the consequences are starting to sink in
The next election could be a wartime election - with all the hardships and potentially dead Australians
Being conned is a choice here
Every voter knew the stakes when they voted
The “Australian people” gave Albanese a landslide victory
The “Australian people” most definitely do want the kool-aid the duopoly pedals
The “Australian people” resolutely refused to vote for SOLUTIONS to Australian issues

No doubt Albanese is greenlighting corporate much more pillaging and plunder of our gas reserves with greater vigour now that there will be global shortages due to war
That will increase emissions that will do more long-term damage
When we're stuck in an alliance but act as a sycophant to the whims of others - we're very likely to be dragged into the obsessions of others
They're not our obsessions - especially when this war is utterly illegal

Carney emphasised the need for these coalitions to be based on shared values and interests, excluding the United States.
This approach contrasts with Australia’s traditional reliance on the US in its alliances

Climate Catastrophe
There's a lot of big issues Australians refuse to confront and address, existential issues like climate
We're permanently missing climate milestones, moving rapidly towards the existential crisis that will destroy societies and civilisation itself
We voted FOR this
A colonial past built with GENOCIDE - a mindset that resides deeply inside the Australian psyche, displayed as racism and bigotry against First Nations communities and individuals
The effects are devastating
The will to address this isn't evident - but then there's a lot Australians don't address
2 questions showing Australia has no sovereignty at all.
Do we want to be dragged into conflict?
👉 Moot point, our sailors are already abroad US submarines and have already committed war crimes.
What if Diktator Don doesn't back off and the conflict inflates? 👉 We're already left with no choices
