I reckon you’re right, I didn’t hear any complaining this year about the Triple J Top 100 being on a different date.

the wiki says its a movement to establish a jew only land in current Palestine.

More or less, yes.

How come they have so much power over protestant countries?

Long story short, they proved themselves in the 1940s to be a powerful force in the region. The Middle East is known to be rich in resources such as petroleum oil, and it also has major trade routes like the Suez Canal (I’m sure you saw the impact of the Evergreen blockage) and land routes through Afghanistan, Iran, etc… One can see how important the region is in China’s Belt and Road Initiative. So, having a military outpost able to credibly threaten this region with overwhelming force is a very powerful tool for Western imperial powers like the US and (historical) NATO allies.

So, the Zionist Regime has influence over these countries because they want the Zionist Regime to help us keep power in the region.

CXORA mentioned the Evangelical Christianity aspect of it, which is real, but I consider that to be more the cultural propaganda reason than the underlying material reason.

Let’s not give Israel all the credit for the Australian governments’ complicity and the weapon parts we send over.

Australia is an imperial power too, you just hear less about the islands our police occupy.

These are flimsy slogans: The prison colony of Australia always had wardens in charge. And if one considers Australia to be “authoritarian”, then what states aren’t authoritarian? Wouldn’t we at least be siding with Russia, Iran, and North Korea? Australia sides with the Zionist Regime because of our imperialism; because our rich can get richer by war profiteering.

No investigation, no right to shitpost.

No, it doesn’t. They’re not omnipotent.

And it would honestly be helpful if you have evidence of any alt accounts, because those will need to be banned.

I agree, just let people lay in peace. Don’t embalm them, bury them in a wooden box or burn them up. It’s a waste, and insane that people still continue to do it.

It’s possible to celebrate what a nation has become without celebrating what they’ve done.

A nation’s actions are a direct result of what the nation is. And many of the shameful actions of Australia are ongoing.

I love this land, I love many, many people here, and I love many of the things we’ve created together. But I have no desire to celebrate this nation as it stands. I feel no more kinship with someone on the other side of the country to someone on the other side of the world - we are all fellow humans. I treat visitors and immigrants with the same respect I give local citizens. For the many positive parts of Australian culture, I spot as many negatives.

But even all that aside, if you want to celebrate the positive parts and ignore the negative… it’s embarrassing to plaster the United Kingdom flag everywhere. Green and gold > red, white and blue.

I knew before I clicked that some good options would have legal blocks, although it’s good to see that green cemeteries exist in most states, even if they’re currently sparse.

I just want to feed some plants and animals when I’m gone. Is that too much to ask?

It’s disappointing to see that the organ donation options seem to default to wasteful options. Although it would have been nice if the article author reached out to the university to clarify if green options are available, as it may simply be unlisted and in the hands of the family to organise.

At this point, it’s clear that the ongoing genocide is not a retaliation. The Oct 7 attacks were simply an excuse to escalate their genocide and complete the occupation of Palestine. This is common practice in invasions and wars, there’s very rarely a solid reason for war beyond seizing resources like land or oil.

Do you want to supply some evidence when you make accusations about our instance?

Good to hear the event has been organised. Food Not Bombs have catered up in Sydney so I assume they’ll be here today.

I appreciate that the competition is a tongue-in-cheek awareness stunt, but mate, if it doesn’t look like the (metaphorically) plastic monoculture grassscape that lawn enthusiasts make, it’s far from the world’s ugliest. I’ve seen people in the US dyeing their lawns green with a gurney. If it can’t attract butterflies and other bugs, it’s an ugly lawn!

Good video on lawns - plenty of its content applies to Aus as well: https://youtube.com/watch?v=KLYMjPNppRQ

Stop dividing ourselves by race.

Yes. Although unfortunately, such divisions are already deeply ingrained into our society (e.g. casual racism in news and media, lack of historical representation in government, generational loss of land, segregation in many towns within living history), and we can’t mend these systemic divides by simply ignoring race. So it’s tough to mend the divide without giving some preferential treatment to the groups who need to be lifted back up.

I agree that the constitutional referendum wasn’t the best way to help lift up Indigenous people and mend the divide, I agree with your point that it presented some issues of its own, and I also believe it doesn’t make sense to treat it as similar to white-supremacist racism, which serves the dominant side in the divide, splitting it further.

it sends a clear signal to guys like this that it is OK

Ultimately, Nazism just does not care about what society thinks is ok. They claim to themselves that most people are brainwashed by a “Jewish conspiracy”.

To them, liberalist concepts like free speech, democracy, equality before the law are interpreted as weakness, foolish or just tools to be exploited on their path to dictatorship (like how their leadership is currently crying about their democratic rights while they want to strip those same rights from most of the population; they don’t care about these rights, they just want to exploit them when convenient). In their worldview, the constitution is just a list of tools that governments politely gave them.

IMO, this video feels like a recount of politician events rather than answering their title question, or analysing the rest of the situation. And I point that out because the title question really is an important question to answer if we want to counter the rise of One Nation’s populism.

For example: voter demographics are completely ignored, apart from vague mentions of “Jewish people”, who appear to be less than half a percent of our population, and therefore not a primary reason for ON gaining this much ground. Different media outlets and their framing of politicians is ignored.

But the right/left vote is not shifting that much.

I haven’t looked deep into it, but the polling for two-party preferred vote (which should approximate left-right) has been shifting. The Wikipedia summary chart of ALP:LNP has pretty consistently shifted from around 58 : 42 last June, to around 53 : 47 - a large shift. If we naively extrapolate the trend, the two-party preferred vote would be tied in around three or four months.

Yep, that’s how they do it.

We all know that social media bubbles can pull people further into different news and different social circles, which becomes normal to them, but once the neo-Nazi circles take their masks off, it’s properly insane what they believe and what they think others are ready to believe. At some point, the hypocrisies and delusions become ridiculously obvious, you’ve already mentioned a couple.

The NSN is one big exercise in projection: all the problems we face are caused by others conspiring to destroy us!

edit: the number of times they emphasise “peaceful” and “non-violent” in that article is absurd. It came up at least 5 times. Which incidentally is about the number of times I’ve seen Sewer punch someone in the head unprovoked. [archive.org link, to avoid giving them ad rev]

Thanks.

Obviously I hate Murdoch sites, but this is a rare case where it’s the better of two options.

Noticer News is a neo-Nazi news outlet.

I am not exaggerating or using that term loosely.

Their front page makes it pretty obvious, with articles such as “How the NSN deradicalised Australia”, “Australia needs a Royal Commission - into the Jewish lobby” and calling Joel Davis a “political prisoner”. Furthermore, “the noticer” is a meme from 4chan’s /pol/ board, referring to “noticing patterns” which they claim confirm their racial conspiracy theories - this is reflected in their publication which constantly overreports any incidents involving their scapegoats.

In this context, where the Australia is literally a imperial colony of the largest empire in the history of the world

It’s a mixed situation after Federation. Historically, Australia (the state) was founded as a British colony, and we legally are still part of the Commonwealth under their king, and also the US has significant influence over Australia, but we’ve seen Australia has demonstrated its own capacity for conducting imperialism in the region.

This doesn’t negate your point at all, it’s just something which is often forgotten.
