As if everything wasn’t shit enough already, “Avocado on toast” discourse is back
Growing up as a Gen Z boy, I cringed at “Millennial Optimism”, enjoyed Glee and rolled my eyes at the claim avocado toast was the real issue with housing. Recently though, with the delightful reboot of Millennial Optimism, and the concerning notion of a Glee reboot, I should have known an infuriating reboot of avocado…

The blue wave won’t wash out the empire
The 2026 US midterm elections have seen Democrats take control of both the House and Senate with large margins, flipping seats deep in red territory once thought unflippable. In South Carolina, Iowa, Ohio, a “bluenami” washed through the country, sweeping away once insurmountable incumbents in Republican strongholds. Texas got a Democrat senator and governor, Kansas…

Jillian Segal is damaging the Albanese government and Australia’s way of life
One question rang out in Australia this week after yet another Antisemitism Report from the unelected public servant acting on behalf of a foreign nation, Jillian Segal. From universities and art galleries to the ABC and SBS, to visa applications, immigration offices and even our primary schools and kindergartens, Jillian Segal has issued a directive…

Australia’s complicit shills have lost the narrative and sound fucking ridiculous
As moronic and absurd slander from Australia’s Zionist mouthpieces sprays across this captured colony’s column inches with renewed and diuretic gusto, Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories, this week presented her latest report to the United Nations on the media’s genocidal complicity. Entitled Truth under the rubble, Albanese crucifies the media’s…

How the West’s rulers make you believe Muslims are less than human
From the 25th commemoration of 9/11 to the 3rd anniversary of the 7/10, there is plenty of room for mourning the victims of terrorism. We mourn the dead; we mourn with their bereaved relatives; we mourn with the first responders who suffer. We must also reckon with how the memorials have been weaponised to make…

Labor governments are embracing fascistic policing to protect the baby-killing machine
Last week, the Land Forces Expo, a biennial conference for spruiking the hardware of military mass-death, was held in Perth. Western Australia’s Roger Cook Labor government implemented harsh legislation, rushed through parliament, granting extraordinary powers to police to search people and turn them away from designated city blocks, including the ability to issue harsh prison…

Penny! Are 191.5 tons of nitrocellulose we sent to Israel “nonlethal in nature”?
Like Macklemore and Ed Sheeran, and Ed Sheeran’s band and Ed Sheeran, relations between Penny Wong and myself are “complicated”. As a responsible global citizen and advocate for international law, for three years I have dutifully sought to inform the Foreign Minister of the unfolding genocide in Palestine, a barbarity I have been reporting on…

Rule 1: Don’t be intimidated. Rule 2: Don’t forget Rule 1
Over 2 years ago, in July 2024, in the midst of Israel’s genocidal assault on a captive people, a self-described ‘proud Zionist’ launched legal proceedings against me in the Australian Human Rights Commission – a requirement under Australian law before filing in the Federal Court under Racial Discrimination legislation when AHRC mediation fails. The Applicant…

UN lawyer lists concrete steps Australia must take to stop Israel’s atrocities
Australia is currently not practising what it preaches regarding international law, nor is it doing what it could to ensure that international systems remain intact. The sight of more than 40 IDF soldiers competing in the Sydney Marathon was a reminder of the acquiescence in Canberra. In this and many other ways, the veil of…

Governments (and their corporate owners) have no safety net plans for our climate permacrisis
Australians are walking a tightrope. Imagine a long line of us traversing a chasm. Some of us – not many – have a safety harness that means the risk inherent in falling becomes minor. The rest of us are walking, whether we know it or not, with the risk of plummeting to the rocky terrain…
