Lazy journalism or mischievous in the extreme

I’ve been banging on about domestic violence, rape, sexual harassment and misogyny for years. I’ve often been abused savagely on social media by misogynistic nutjacks for even daring to speak on the issues that women face.

I’ve been the victim of all the above - as have many…

The most dangerous precedent the SCOTUS could set is to allow a lifelong fraud, who breached his oath of office to uphold the constitution, and then committed treason, to walk. Such a precedent would destroy the notion of justice, as his acts were to further a private purpose.

Can the ABC please stop calling the GENOCIDE of the Palestinian people a WAR? It’s a frigging GENOCIDE and they know it. The Palestinian people aren’t even allowed to own a weapon let alone have a military to protect them from the gutless barbaric Israeli TERRORISTS.

Rachel Withers Jenny Frecklington-Jones #VotedYes ❤️💛🖤 Noooooooooo!!!!

Oh god, thank you doesn't come anywhere near to cutting it. You've kept so many of us sane and fired up and active participants in democracy

Thank you for every thing large and small that you've done Rachel. Please do not disappear ❤️

Big changes may be coming to Queensland soon if the pollsters are correct. Interesting times. #qldpol

Was PM Albo strategically tricked at the rally on Sunday?
If so, it was very clever.
Based on the feedback received since yesterday, it appears to have been a well-executed strategy.
I speculate this is the reason why the opposition did not attend. #auspol

I’ve covered Qld politics for six years and this is the first time I’ve seen a Premier walk out the gates of parliament and meet with protesters face to face in front of cameras.

A must watch #women #enough 😂😂😂

Treat men who are violent towards women as terrorists. If the latter was killing any Australian every 4 days, the entire army would be mobilised.

Cease trying to treat this problem with the belief you can nurture this out of society. You can’t. They are predators and will…

Kos Samaras It’s easier to blame brown people rather than those Aussies with inter-generational wealth who are spending at high levels which is a major contributor to inflation.

The real solution takes bold legislation & economic reform. It depends how far one wants to go to curb inflation.

So I read this piece twice

I needed to savour every word

Dr Gabrielle Kuiper writes about climate change & the environmental destruction of our planet as abuse - an abusive, toxic relationship of coercive control from the powerful toward us, the citizens

What this case proves beyond reasonable doubt, is that we are yet to create a country that is safe for women, where they can speak out, where they are equal.

Much ❤️ to Brittany and Lisa.

Immense courage to speak out and fight against the onslaught. abc.net.au/news/2024-04-1…

Probably a good time to reflect on how devotedly and brutally mastheads and prominent commentators seek to undermine, discredit and destroy women who allege sexual assault, or report on sexual assault. There's been a lot of bullying masquerading as journalism; it infects.

19 charges including: “domestic violence offences of unlawful stalking or intimidation, breaking into a dwelling with intent at night, common assault, assault occasioning bodily harm and choking or suffocation.”

RIP 💔💔

Another death in prison. Another Aboriginal person dies in prison and another Aboriginal family left to grieve.
