Why Labor Pretend Reform Is Not the Change We Were Promised
#ChildCareReform, #LaborGovernment, #MonetarySovereignty, #NeoliberalAustralia, #PoliticalTheatre, #PrivatisationFails, #PublicServices, #RealReform, #SocialJusticeAustralia
Labor pretend reform is failing Australians. Real change is possible—but only if we stop accepting political theatre as genuine progress.

"Chinese analysts have been closely monitoring the #LosAngeles #unrest, which they said had been exploited by #US President Donald #Trump for #PoliticalTheatre, jeopardising public #safety and #stability. (..) Lacking diplomatic wins, Trump may pivot to harsher domestic tactics to assert strength, risking deeper #crises, according to Yang."

Or #China will voice "grave concern" first.

“theatrics... of a rather depraved sort.”
- Larry Summers, former U.S. treasury sec.

"Data … does not support Trump’s assertions.

According to reporting by the New York Times, U.S. CPB agents seized around 19 kg of fentanyl at the Canada-U.S. border in 2024.

That’s less than 0.2 % of what was seized at the U.S.-Mexico border the same year."
