The Mask of Tyranny

The Mask of Tyranny 01-08-2020: Residents of Melbourne and neighbouring Mitchell Shire are now being forced to wear facemasks when leaving home, ostensibly to help “stop the spread” of a coronavirus. These directions come with a litany of laughable petty rules and guidelines, such as a stipulation that one must carry a facemask while exercising.[1] This should be material for cutting satire and comedy, but … Continue reading The Mask of Tyranny

The Covid-19 Siege of Melbourne

The Covid-19 Siege of Melbourne 12-07-2020: Melbourne is currently enduring a medieval siege by the state, with a return to “stage 3” lockdowns for the whole city, and “hard” lockdowns for nine public housing towers, including Flemington and North Melbourne. No notice was given[1], and police were deployed to prevent residents leaving for any reason. Police effectively barricaded people inside their own units and were … Continue reading The Covid-19 Siege of Melbourne

270 Billion Reasons To Oppose A New War

270 Billion Reasons To Oppose A New War 06-07-2020: 270 billion dollars. That’s how much the Australian government pledged to spend on “defence” over the next ten years. The first purchase will be an $800 million dollar spend on the AGM-158C Long Range Anti-Ship Missile, obtained from the US Navy.[1] These billions are apparently lying around just waiting to be spent on insuring “inter-operability” with … Continue reading 270 Billion Reasons To Oppose A New War

Repeal the “Foreign Interference Laws”!

Repeal the “Foreign Interference Laws”! 30-06-2020: In a disturbing precedent, New South Wales (NSW) Labor Party MP Shaoquett Moselmane has had Federal Police and ASIO (Australian Security Intelligence Organisation – the equivalent of the FBI in the US) officers raid his home in Rockdale, Sydney on June 26.[1] It is the first investigation to take place using the “Foreign Interference” laws passed by the Federal … Continue reading Repeal the “Foreign Interference Laws”!

No Fees for Degrees!

No Fees for Degrees! 26-06-2020: Not content with running Universities into the ground through decades of funding cuts, the Federal Government is now blatantly embarking on another multi-pronged attack on the higher education sector.

Black Lives Matter: Friend or Foe?

Black Lives Matter: Friend or Foe?  21-06-2020: Throughout the Western world, riots and protests have taken place over the police murder of George Floyd, an unarmed African American, in Minneapolis, USA. Under normal circumstances, protests against such an act would be understandable, and would be something that working people could throw their weight behind. Yet the context for these actions took place in anything other … Continue reading Black Lives Matter: Friend or Foe?

Abolish the Coronavirus Commission!

Abolish the Coronavirus Commission! 14-06-2020: The fake coronavirus pandemic has now spawned its own fake coronavirus government. Unfortunately, the entirely appointed National Covid-19 Coordination Commission (NCCC) is all too real. Unelected by anyone, and unaccountable to the federal (or any) parliament, the NCCC is yet another example of the blatant disregard for even a pretence of democracy that the ruling class exhibits from time to … Continue reading Abolish the Coronavirus Commission!

Undeniably, the police slaying of … Continue reading Corona Fears Subside as America Burns

Covid-19: The Corruption of Science

Covid-19: The Corruption of Science 25-05-2020: Covid-19 is a nothing-burger. On the scale of emergent threats to human civilisation, SARS-CoV-2 (renamed Covid-19) does not even rate a mention. Compared to ecological collapse, of which global warming is just one part, it’s a fizzer. Compared to the threat of nuclear war launched by Washington in a last-ditch effort to restore a fast-declining empire, Covid-19 is barely … Continue reading Covid-19: The Corruption of Science

Defend Civil Rights! Open the State Borders!

Defend Civil Rights!  Open the State Borders! 30-05-2020: The Corona crisis is not caused by a virus. The deliberate destruction of the economy, the lockdown of healthy people inside their homes, the sacking of millions of workers, the decimation of small and medium sized businesses, the months long delay in vital medical treatment deemed “elective”, the abolition of basic civil and democratic rights – all … Continue reading Defend Civil Rights!
