Trump Sells $100K Gold Watches on Same Day Melania Insists People Can’t Afford Basic Necessities ↗︎
↳ If people were more awake, they’d realise this is a contradiction of capital. Trumps various mouthpieces show how exploited and enslaved we are — and he promises only more punishing chains. — added 7:09pm on 27/09/24 ❧
Lebanon ceasefire hopes fade as Netanyahu issues contradictory statements ↗︎
↳ The fact he’s even platformed at the UN is a disgrace. The ICC is an ineffectual organ, and the global imperialist project of the USA needs to burn. — added 7:06pm on 27/09/24 ❧
Israel accused of breaking global labor law by withholding Palestinian worker pay ↗︎
↳ Colonialism. It’s sick. Brutal. And deeply racist - like everyone who “stands with Israel’s” genocidal leaders - including this country’s leaders. — added 7:00pm on 27/09/24 ❧
International students say ‘we’ve not come illegally’ after Peter Dutton makes ‘boat arrivals’ comparison ↗︎
↳ Stoking that xenophobia, the Liberals are the alt-right republicans, folks. And our mainstream media still think they’re the moderate centre. — added 6:12pm on 27/09/24 ❧
Mark Zuckerberg says there’s ‘no causal connection’ between social media and teen mental health ↗︎
↳ Smoking doesn’t cause cancer, I guess. But we need to drop “teen” from this. Anecdotally many people I know of all ages rapidly descend into narcissism and personality disorders with hugely increased social media use. — added 5:47am on 27/09/24 ❧
Europe weakens wolf protection ↗︎
↳ “Just kill it” is basically Europes entire (colonial) agenda in a nutshell. — added 5:41am on 27/09/24 ❧

Trump says Ukraine is ‘demolished’ and dismisses its defense against Russia’s invasion ↗︎
↳ He appears to be applying a uniform, yet equally colonial genocidal, lens in support of Russia and Israel. A toxic, inhuman, shitty leaders - everywhere. We needn’t put up with this, yet we seem to keep electing them. — added 9:28pm on 26/09/24 ❧
LG TVs start showing ads on screensavers ↗︎
↳ Airgapping the tv from the internet continues to be good practice. But this is just shit. — added 3:27pm on 26/09/24 ❧
“Lebanese Civilians Are Paying the Price”: Israeli Strikes Kill Nearly 600, Displace Tens of Thousands ↗︎
↳ I’m basically out of words about how fucked Israel is at this point. — added 3:23pm on 26/09/24 ❧
NSW public housing official allegedly told woman she would get a home faster if she had sex with him ↗︎
↳ Despicable. Not to mention the ongoing depiction of “renters” (a false construct made to distract from the exploitation of capitalism) as subhuman, which contributes strongly to this. — added 7:55am on 26/09/24 ❧
Israeli strikes kill 492 in heaviest daily toll in Lebanon since 1975-90 civil war ↗︎
↳ These genocidal maniacs will stop when exactly? Australia has very “stern words” for this kind of action you know. — added 6:31am on 26/09/24 ❧

First woman dies in ‘suicide capsule’ in Switzerland ↗︎

Top Chinese economist disappears after criticising Xi Jinping ↗︎
↳ The Chinese economy, like all world economies, is vehemently anti worker. — added 5:54pm on 25/09/24 ❧
