WE CAN EITHER HAVE A LIVEABLE PLANET OR BILLIONAIRES. WE CAN’T HAVE BOTH.

The findings of @oxfaminternational’s latest report, released just days ago, are honestly terrifying and infuriating.

This is not accidental. It is the result of an economic system that protects extreme wealth, fuels corporate pollution, and puts profits before people.

It’s time to FLIP THE SCRIPT. Tax extreme wealth. Make polluters pay. Ban private jets and superyachts. Put lives before profits.

Journalists normalising Trump's racism are failing democracy

As Trump builds his power on a foundation of racism and authoritarianism, the media’s silence speaks louder than ever.

Boeing announced layoffs and a hiring freeze after 30K workers went on strike.

Boeing said the strike "jeopardizes" the company.

Maybe what "jeopardizes" Boeing is putting profits above safety, undercutting its union, and giving a $45M golden parachute to a failed CEO.

Hello?

During my early childhood, in Far North Queensland, I witnessed, first hand, appalling treatment of the local aboriginal people and saw physical evidence of one of the local massacres. Dutton and 'some' of his land-theft mates are dead scared of reparations. Of course they'll vote no. Worse still, the powerful forces in the #LNP and the far right are using every tool they can buy to co-opt "aspirational" groups and individuals as foot-soldiers in their campaign to retain economic hold and control over the most of us. #Insiders

Thirteen Quick Facts About Gun Ownership in America:

1) The US has about 120 guns per 100 people.
2) No other nation on Earth has even 110 guns per 100 people.
3) Or 100 per 100 people.
4) Or 90 per 100.
5) Or 80 per 100.
6) Or 70 per 100.
7) Or 60 per 100.
8) There is one nation that has about 50 guns per 100 people.
9) That nation is Yemen.
10) Fucking YEMEN.
11) Yemen hasn't had a mass shooting since 2013's Sana'a Attack.
12) That attack was committed by armed members of al-Quaida.
13) They committed it using American guns.

I'm sure none of these facts are at all connected.

I’m already tired of the lnp line”you’ll always pay more under labor” it’s just another line. The rinse and repeat is abottesq in its output. We need to get beyond this BS and stupidity. Dutton is just a poor imitation of abott and how did that work out for australia? Liberals destroy and labor rebuild. Someone has to dismantle this line over and over with a better line

“I'm going to be blunt. With men like Andrew Tate (a self-proclaimed ‘misogynist’) being viewed 11.6 billion times and men like David Carrick in our police force, no, I am not shocked 1 in 4 women have been raped or sexually assaulted or that rape convictions are at their lowest.”

“It is the scientific consensus that hundreds of millions if not billions of people will be forced to migrate due to climate change within the next few decades. A lot of those people will end up dying. The geopolitics of a billion climate migrants. Let that fucking sink in.”
