The Brown Note

The Great Transgender Sports Scandal

A title way more controversial than the content - instead a deeper look at the issue and how it relates to sport in general, how much more complicated that is than on the surface and how it's a discussion we can have without losing our minds.

Are Biological Women Being Erased?

On International Women's Day (don't worry girls, they'll be coming for that next) a look at the way the worlds largest oppressed and marginalised group are the only ones to not have ownership of their own issue, story, politics, self-definition and identity and how that process is systemic.

Facebook Won, Australia Nil

Facebook just won a world's first battle with a sovereign government and trounced the ridiculous Australian Media Bargaining Code, making the Scott Morrison government look very silly indeed. Not that you would know that reading the mainstream Aussie media as they are the ones who asked for it in the first place, nor the government who claim to have won.

Christian Porter And The Rape Allegation

Christian Porter, the Attorney General of Australia who just destroyed the Family Court - designed to protect women against men like him, is the Liberal cabinet member about to name himself as the man accused of rape. The second Liberal government rape allegation in a week. The Liberal Party has a problem with women - we know this. It's almost as though having a man in government outed by the ABC as a lifelong misogynist with highly dubious behavior around female staff could lead to this. Who could possibly have guessed? Not see-no-evil Scott Morrison, whose Caliguan-debauched government are 1 hour past midnight on the doomsday clock yet still in power.

Facebook Vs Australia - Why I Stand With Facebook

The Australian government's attempts to Murdoch and Channel 9's bidding, with their gob-smacking Media Bargaining Bill comes to a shocking head as Facebook literally block all news sites from Australia. What the Aussie media wont tell you about how contentious the bill was or why it was terrible legislation in the first place and why I stand with Facebook. Which by the way, has become a lovely blissful paradise without the news!

Scott Morrison And The Rape Of Brittany Higgins

Why I think the devastating rape of a Liberal Party staffer, brushed under the carpet, resulting in the scott-free rapist attacking more women, will finally be the scandal to take down Australia's prime minister. Despite the compliant Australian media allowing Scott Morrison and the Liberal Party he leads, to get away with endless scandals that would've shocked Caligula - if this one reaches Mr Plausible Deniability, he's toast. A look at the appalling ingrained misogyny and entitlement of the party with a problem with women.

Carey Mulligan's Oscar politics at its worst

Actor Carey Mulligan (and the whole world) owe film critic Dennis Harvey a massive apology for the disgraceful act of destroying his career and reputation, to try and position themselves in this year's Oscar race. Her completely inferred response to a year old review, was nothing but the usual stories actor's, publicists and studios pump out between Christmas and February, just to put themselves in the minds of academy voters - only more cynical and vile. Harvey never said a word about either Margot or Carey being hot or not, cos a 60 year old gay guy doesn't think like that.

Tayna Plibersek - Now's the time to lead Labor

Facing the certainty of defeat to the god-awful Scott Morrison, subjecting Australia to years more of a declining economy and utter despair, a tactically hopeless Anthony Albanese must now step aside so the pig headed, incompetent sexist bully can face his worst nightmare, an articulate, even tempered, intelligent, strong, well spoken woman - Tanya Plibersek. Scotty would flounder from day one, and it will turn his forgone, show-boating, slavish-Aussie-media backed, parade into a nightmare. Now is the time Tanya.

Gamestop: The Revenge

One of the happiest and most joyful moments in modern history has been watching the parasitic vampire cancers of Wall Street losing at their own rigged game, the hypocrisy over it a hall of famer. Ironically, the hedge fund vermin that have cashed out the public casino every time they could, failed to hedge against their own bets. Hopefully a new paradigm of terror for these scum to deal with.

The West Has Already Lost Against China

There's lots of talk about the economic battle between China and the West but due to the combined forces of economic Neo-liberalism and globalisation, destroying Western economies for the last few decades and bolstering China, it's a battle the West has already lost and cannot come back from.
