The 2025 Australian election will not be about policy. It will be fought through social network analysis and the ability to project hypermasculinity, like eating uranium for breakfast.
The reality is we have a climate emergency, and the uber-rich wrestling control of the planet for their own survival at any cost. Labor can either go lamely, or show some muscle and declare the class war on this evil, interning all who show signs of shorting our parliamentary democracy.

If Peter Dutton has dominated politics this week it is because he has dominated the political agenda this year, as well as this week, even with his rare appearances before the Canberra Press Gallery.

A few days ago I posted this image on Lamb Island Community, Buy, Sell and Swap.
I said some thing like 'Australian Border Force conducting "Freedom of Navigation" rights in Ngudjuruistan Waters this morning' The post reached 30.9K views before the comments got too silly and had to be taken down by the group's administration. I can only assume FB AI has a penchant for Australian secession and the ABF, or perhaps people smuggling and life in the islands. Who knows what AI promotes and why? So just for the record here is the image again:
