Biden Vs Biden: The Rebirth of Sleepy Joe
Saturday Jun 22, 2024
Saturday Jun 22, 2024
In the most terrifying US election year perhaps ever, Bidens per-occupation with warmongering was dangerously splitting the Democrat vote. Now with an improving economic picture, Biden is ahead of Trump in recent polling, by Fox News no less, for the first time in eight months. Ironically, the best thing to have happened to his chances in a year, is the conviction of his own son.

Peter Dutton Just Lost The Next Election
Thursday Jun 20, 2024
Thursday Jun 20, 2024
Congratulations on Anthony Albanese and Labor on winning a second term. I don't normally call elections a year and a half out but this one is done. Only people with either A) an agenda or B) no understanding of politics, are trying to sell you Potato Dutton as electable because of midterm polls. Let me walk you through why these mean nothing and why the clueless Dutton has already lost.
*post made the night before Dutton actually released his nuclear power plans, possible the biggest own goal in opposition history #auspol

Hunter Biden and the Hypocrisy of the Republican Party
Saturday Jun 08, 2024
Saturday Jun 08, 2024
There are two all time hall of fame hypocrisies being told by the Republican Party over Hunter Biden. One is they're crying and screaming that any trial their God Donald Trump faces is a politically motivated travesty of justice, whilst relentlessly pursuing Joe Biden's son (and failing to land any corruption charge on him). The second is the party of gun ownership under any circumstances, seeking to prosecute Hunter for buying a gun...

Israel: Netanyahu's Biggest Lie - He Needs Hamas
Saturday Jun 08, 2024
Saturday Jun 08, 2024
There are two massive lies being told by Western governments and Israeli prime minister, and war criminal, Benjamin Netanyahu. One is that he is destroying Hamas, when every observer says they are growing in strength with every Israeli bomb and are stronger now than when the most recent round of this conflict started. The other is that Netanyahu wants to destroy Hamas at all - he desperately needs and relies on them.

Gina Rinehart Devouring Herself

Saturday May 25, 2024
As hysterically funny as it is laughing at the fury of Australia's biggest ever trust fund nepo baby, over a portrait of her that brilliantly captures her inner ugliness, why am I the only one who thinks the artist, Vincent Namatjira, is deliberately referencing Goya's horror masterpiece, Saturn Devouring his Son, a painting about a powerful entity who defeated his own father and then his own children...

Israel Vs The International Criminal Court
Saturday May 25, 2024
Saturday May 25, 2024
Whilst Western leaders enable genocide, the United Nations and the ICC are standing up for justice, with the latter now issuing an arrest warrant for war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu. This has led to two of the most insane comments in American history:
President Biden, "It's clear Israel wants to do all it can to ensure civilian protection," and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, "[The] ICC has no jurisdiction over this matter." - pretty sure it does mate:
The ICC is the first and only permanent international court with jurisdiction to prosecute individuals for the international crimes of genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and the crime of aggression.

Ukraine and Gaza: The Two Wars Killing Joe Biden's Re-election Chances
Saturday May 18, 2024
Saturday May 18, 2024
It wasn't supposed to be like this, but in this unbearably dangerous year for Western democracy, President Biden has spent huge focus and political capital on two hugely damaging wars, everyone sees as hypocritical and in the middle of a cost of living crisis, deeply unpopular. The right are focused like a laser behind Trump whilst Biden squanders votes with pre Iraq war global policeman antics no-one buys anymore. The last time there were student protest this big against an American backed war, Nixon got elected. This version of Nixon will be much worse.

The All New 10 Year Old Australian Housing And Cost Of Living Crisis
Wednesday May 15, 2024
Wednesday May 15, 2024
Apparently the Australian news media has decided we are in a middle of a housing, rental unaffordability and cost of living crisis, as they do whenever a Labor government is in power. It's now 18 times the average wage in Sydney to buy the average home. Except it was 15 times the average wage in back in 2015, NINE years ago and we were in a recession in 2019 BEFORE COVID. I was posting about this then, and haven't stopped, nice of the Aussie media to finally join the party...

Man Vs Bear - Why Are Men So Easily Triggered
Sunday May 05, 2024
Sunday May 05, 2024
The recent statement, a woman would rather encounter a bear than a man, alone in the woods, sure has fired off an almighty sh$tstorm. But why are so many men so fragile and so easily triggered? I can't ever remember a woman feeling the need to say, not all women.

Autistic Kids And The Elephant In The Room
Sunday May 05, 2024
Sunday May 05, 2024
The Guardian newspaper is running a wholly honorable series on how we treat the the now, one quarter of Australian children who enroll in school, with some form of disability, commonly Autism or ADHD, not to mention a colossal amount of food allergies. The one question they and are no one is asking, what the hell caused one quarter of Australian school children, enrolling in schools to have some form of disability? If a quarter of kids showed up one year with cancer, we sure as hell would ask why, not solely focus on how to treat it.
