The mainstream western worldview pretends the Global South does not exist - Pearls and Irritations
Mainstream western politics and culture pretend the rest of the world does not exist and shrinks the earth down to US-aligned countries.Caitlin Johnstone (Pearls and Irritations)
Big US tech armed with outrage and hate based algorithms that hoover any and all private details for exploit and sale are the real issue, not kids.

So many factors to consider, foremost, a ministerial staffer scratching their head and mumbling, 'What the fuck is Mastodon.' Even if they get that far, Mastodon and ActivityPub present enormous challenges for any attempts to exert control, by design. Can easily see it all being ignored or just given up on if it isn't.
Safe bet the only services targetted will be the commercial ones an RSL member can name but you never know. If the legislation is finalised. If it passes. If it's even implemented. So many ifs, it's almost impossible to take seriously. What a stupid hill to die on.

Sure this is "Owner-Occupiers", but it seems logical to me that interest rate risess have also contributed a lot to rental increases as landlords have passed on mortgage costs.

'Albanese says his government would use the same definition of social media as that used in Australia’s Social Media Services Online Safety Code. The code defines social media as electronic services that meet the following conditions:
● the sole or primary purpose of the service is to enable online social interaction between two or more end‑users
● the service allows end‑users to link to, or interact with, some or all other end‑users
● the service allows end‑users to post material on the service
● such other conditions (if any) as are set out in the legislative rules.'

Australian kids under 16 will soon be banned from social media – but parents still don’t know which apps are out
The Albanese government has announced a plan to ban kids under 16 from social media. There’s no explanation why this age was chosen, and the decision flies in the face of expert advice.The Conversation
Australia: Ban gambling ads to protect the children.

There's a lesson there for combatting Australia's own Trumpian forces come next year's federal election. Less lecturing and assumed victory, more open discussion and willingness to listen, to engage the disengaged and hopefully bring them along.
A huge advantage of being a small and irrelevant world power is we can watch and learn, as we did with our electoral system, then adapt far faster than the larger powers stuck in their inexorable trajectories. That could be very useful in this context.

Waiting on a release for actual details but based on the press conference, Albanese and Nine's Minister Rowland just announced ID to access 'social media,' likening it to rules for purchasing alcohol.

"The recent actions of Israel and the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) raise pressing questions about the consistent application of Australia’s anti-terror laws."

"‘... the only conclusion you can draw is that the Israeli army is one of the most criminal armies in the world’"
...
"Applying Australia’s anti-terror laws consistently is not just a matter of fairness; it is an issue of sovereignty. Australia has a duty to ensure that its proscription decisions are guided by national interests and an objective assessment of threats to its citizens, rather than aligning uncritically with the foreign policy of allied nations."

The depravity of a society thoroughly brainwashed in their supremacy and religious stature as the chosen ones.
The primitive instincts of this society are fully on display - the more blood and suffering they see the more they crave. It’s literally ingrained in Israeli society.
And all those countries, and their media supporting them are part of it

The world is on fire and flooding and humans are murdering each other and locking up women and children. The government is lying all the time about huge policy issues that diminish the chance of a liveable future for us and our children. The opposition is lying all the time about huge policy issues that diminish the chance of a liveable future for us and our children. The national anti corruption commission is corrupt. Inequality is skyrocketing. Housing insecurity is skyrocketing.
Next to all of that, I do not give a flying fuck about flight upgrades for senior politicians.
Thanks for listening.
