    The biggest Neo-Nazi rally in recent history, a group of violent convicts, who are a clear threat to Australian's safety, our values, and our way of life, ready to riot. Our government: ...silence White Supremacy isn't just the violent convicts in our streets.

    So many people actioned to help farmers in drought and now we see Walgett dry as a bone with no water and little action being done. I’m mad at the cotton farmers. I’m mad at irrigators. I’m mad at colonisation for fucking up my nation.

    Some works didn't make it to the public domain this week. When necessary to prevent culture from being lost forever, we have an ethical duty to violate short-sighted copyright law and preserve works in a viable format. This is a higher duty than preserving an income stream.

    I keep thinking about how our grandparents - who actually fought Nazis - would feel about seeing these so-called patriots draped in the Australian flag. This whole thing makes me feel sad and exhausted.
