Recurver đŻThe #CommonwealthBank's proposed fee of 3$ per transaction for cash withdrawals at branches and post offices represents a new low in #Australian corporate bastardry.
After years of record profits, in the middle of a cost of living crisis, at a time of festive charity the #CommonwealthBank has shown, yet again, that nothing is beyond its scope for corporate and social irresponsibility and greed.
What an utterly disgraceful đ© heap of an organisation.

It is claimed that over 2000 people on unemployment/disability benefits committed suicide over poorly-overseen, computer-generated false debts. We are a small nation, but we punch above our weight when it comes to #bastardry.

#Optus is now insisting that I use the #MyOptus app to recharge a #Prepaid mobile phone account.
They will not let me recharge using the My Optus webpage.
Looks like #Bastardry to me.
And the app is not compatible with either of my Android devices.
No sign of #ReduceReuseRepairRecycle here.
Looking at moving to #Amaysim. Sure that the price will be lower and the #UX no better.

Didn't know that #Kissinger was involved in that piece of #Bastardry.
Now wondering if with-holding of many of US government documents for many decades was because of Kissinger having been involved and still alive.
I see that the linked article was cited a book that implicated #NewZealand in #WestPapua.
Knew that #Australia had, again as it had following WWI where it let #Japan keep control of #Manchuria, taken the easy path in West Papua "plebiscite".
Peter RelphOne assumption that was made throughout the #VoiceToParliament debate & in the analysis of the overwhelming racist result is that all those apparently supporting a "Yes" vote actually desired a "Yes" outcome.
I believe that to be a naive idea, one can destroy an idea with faint praise possibly better than with outright opposition.
There is never going to be a Treaty, there was never ever going to be a Treaty, the Neoliberals & other racists decided that long ago.
This recent debacle was just them making sure of that by setting up a straightforward moral decision of a simple black & white issue as though there was something to be debated, then confusing the issue to the best of their ability.
This result will enable them to deny any possibility of anything even vaguely resembling a Treaty, because, you know ... "the will of the people".
Machiavelli lives.
