  • Greens defector’s use of slur against fellow senator exposed in text leak

    Jump

  • Her inevitable clashes within Labor will eclipse anything she experienced in The Greens.

    Albanese declared the senator’s departure was a sign the Greens had become an unrecognisable party after they blocked housing bills last term and focused heavily on the war in Gaza.

    And yet she is the only Greens member to have publicly used the slogan "From the river to the sea...".

    Regardless of one's stance on Gaza politics, Albo is being disingenuous. He is merely gloating about the defection.

    And why gloat? He still needs the Greens on board to pass legislation.

  • Senator Dorinda Cox called One Nation leader Pauline Hanson a “f---ing retard” in a text message leaked after she defected to Labor, showing the depth of anger toward her in the Greens

    That's petty of the Greens.

  • Yeah it seems to merely be a business decision, less about a conscience and more about avoiding losing more anti-trust suits.

  • The conservatives won the Presidency. Now the liberal PM is calling for a vote of confidence (why?).

  • People are not "placed" on the floor that is what you do with bags, boxes and rubbish. But that was the word used by the Northern Territory police to describe the sequence of events to the media.

    Of all the things that went wrong the journalist leads the story with a criticism of the grammar? People are "placed" under arrest, placed first in a competition, placed in a job etc

    Tragically, painfully, I think it says a lot.

    Desperate for a hot take? Exploiting the tragic death for a literary career beyond journalism? I admit to not reading the article so maybe I am being too harsh - am sure someone here will tell me if so.

  • Unless the person is making music, or rather controlling it. No need for musical expertise, just tweak it until you arrive somewhere you enjoy. Or enjoy the tweaking itself. Like this.

  • Am surprised his style hasn't changed. I am not tired of the genre decades later though.

    Also a little surprising the mainstream hasn't adopted elements of it. I naively thought it would by now.

  • Do you have an example of such violence in Gaza pre Oct 7 and post settlement withdrawal in 2005?

    The blockading is because in that time Hamas and PIJ were sending missiles and suicide bombers into Israel.

    There was retaliation each time. Disproportionate because it was meant as a deterrent (obviously it failed to deter though).

  • Furiously? I am not the one making ad hominem attacks. I am not putting words in your mouth. I declared no such thing. I bring up uncomfortable facts.

    There is no such thing as a mainstream political bloc. 5 coalitions were tried and quickly failed resulting in renewed elections before Netanyahu won. There are Left leaning Israeli parties (who value liberalism, unlike Hamas) but I am pretty sure they don't want to vacate the Levant either which is what these discussions always seem to come down to.

    Jews aint leaving. Arabs aint leaving. Get real. I don't know how they can make it work. Neither of us has a solution.

  • Do you really need to resort to name calling and bullying? There are reasonable arguments to be had.

    You call it genocide but I do not accept your redefinition of the word. Do you call Russia's war on Ukraine genocide? Russia targets purely civilian towns with drones and missiles (unlike Gaza situation) but it isn't genocide. I can acknowledge that despite being pro-Ukraine.

  • And you want what? Israel to roll over and allow continuous repeats of Oct 7 (which Hamas vowed to do, on the record)?

    Here is a more mature argument you could have used against me: How would Israel know if all of Hamas surrendered anyhow? What could possibly count as a surrender?

  • UNWRA was compromised so the impartial party option has been abandoned.

    It requires military to keep Hamas from stealing the aid. It is not realistic to expect an outside neutral military to take on this task. UN could not keep Hezbollah in check in Lebanon.

    It seems Hamas are annoyed not just that they are being denied supplies for themselves and to sell to civilians but also because they need civilians to be starving to win the PR battle. Full stomachs will divert attention from the war so should we starve the people? Which is it? Allowing Hamas to hijack it isn't going to happen so forget what the UN says (which is very vague).

    Regardless of what we argue here, the distribution will continue. It is just two days into it so let's see if it going well. Of course for some ProPals it will not go well unless Jews vacate the Levant (an unrealistic fantasy regardless of whether one believes they should be there or not).

  • They aren't very efficient with "genocide" are they? Bad shots you reckon?

    It is a terrible war without resorting to hyperbole. I understand it is for PR but surely we can be better than that on Lemmy?
