To whomever set fire to the synagogue, know this, u are a racist, u are a fascist, u are a Nazi. This is not your movement, u are not welcome here, u do not belong here. This is a movement of humanity, equality, love, acceptance and belonging. There is no room for your hate!

I went to the same high school as Sam Kerr. So did two of the girls who were murdered by the Claremont serial killer. For decades, a taxi driver was the suspect. I cannot over emphasise the impact these murders had for girls who went to my school. The fear was drillled into us.

And if we’re to believe what Tony Burke is out saying this morn-that the government knew from Day 2 that the caravan was never destined for terrorism and was instead a con job by criminals-it begs the question: why rush through ineffective, overreaching laws other than optics?

1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed. Put simply: right-wing has narrative dominance. My org (Media Matters) did this study and been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...

2. So much of convo in Dem circles and in parts of political media has been about messaging. 'Oh, Democrats just need better messaging,' I hear folks say. Wrong. Even if Dems had the perfect message, it wouldn't get anywhere. This isn't messaging problem; it's a media crisis.

My column this week is about how fucking BAD the body image/fatphobic vibes are at the moment and how other people need to engage before it destroys us all. I don’t ever insist you read my stuff but I’d love you to read this one theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Incredibly concerning statement from Amelia Hamer outlining her intent to bring religion into politics and go after trans people #auspol

It’s actually sick that a tiny group of foul white supremacists have managed to propel Welcome to Country onto the election agenda because so much of the media immediately legitimised their grievance. They’ll be rubbing their hands in absolute GLEE at the way media took the bait.

It’s so funny to me that back in 2017 the marriage equality campaign sent one single text message out and was treated like some sort of terror event, and now Harry Fong nonstop texts me like he’s in the group chat

“Why did burning girls matter in Vietnam but not in Gaza?” The 'Napalm Girl' photo shocked the world and helped end the Vietnam War, writes ⁦Jehad Abusalim⁩, but a child surrounded by flames in Gaza can't even provoke a ceasefire. Read/subscribe: zeteo.com/p/why-did-burn…

It’s one thing to leave your party during a parliamentary term, but to switch right after the election from a minor party *to the government* is wiiiild
