 While Bolt demonstrates his ignorance and that he little more than an echo chamber of  Fox News USA  repeating the opinions of right-wing media jocks of America. The media which Trumpsters calls fake today simply states a fact that all those hated and named by Trump deserving of hate were then sent a pipe bomb. That's fake news according to Bolt not a fact even though it happened. As soon as this was pointed out MSNBC and Trump named them they too were sent a bomb. That fact alone shows Trump's an enabler and reckless. Trump is the link between the unknown pipe bomber or bombers and their targets. All Bolt insists on is the bombers unknown identity but not Trump's recklessness in continuing to name persons who then become targets.

Bolt didn't emphasize the unknown ID of Wentworth emailer, did he? The ABC did yet he had no problem irrationally blaming and linking the ABC for Sharma's loss for reporting the fact of the email and its negative content about Phelps. He loudly denies any connection with Trump and the bombers why? Simply because Trump said there was no correlation. Yet he named names and the pipe bombs kept being delivered.  Just because Bolt says "no one knows" whose doing it in the case of Trump doesn't absolve Trump's reckless stupidity. As far as Sharma is concerned Bolt  "doesn't knows" the  ID of the email sender, therefore, ABC shouldn't have reported it or the opinions of others as if it's not journalism but fake news and propaganda. The ABC reported the negative content of an email and not the positive. However, Bolt twists the positive into a negative Sharma's Brahmin Hindu heritage and posits the Negative message about Phelps as a positive and accuses the ABC of racist bias. What Bolt hides is that his opinion isn't based on fact it takes a racist to twist positive statements into negatives and in doing so become a propagandist and next to the ABC an apologist for a definitive loss and a distributor of fake news.
 In the same way, Bolt's copied Fox News irrationality and parroted their denial that Trump has anything to do with hate-speech and a correlation with the pipe bombs. Hate speech is according to Bolt the domain of the American Left, not the right, therefore, the Democrats did it.
 They did the same with Trump's response to the Charlottesville murder Trump without hesitation became an apologist for the ultra= right-wing and in doing so became their enabler giving them the moral support of the POTUS to behave as they did anywhere else in America.  Trump denied he did when the media quoted what he had said and he typically called it fake news as did his apologist down under Andrew Bolt.
Trump at his rallies is drumming up anger and enabling the sort of increased violent behaviours not seen in America carried out by Neo-Nazis and Nationalist militias before Trump became President. More Ultra-Right White Nationalists have been arrested for terrorist activities since Trump's Presidency. More than either Muslims, the Left or any other group in the US. Bolt fails to mention that, but then history and facts are meaningless to him only opinion propaganda does.

 Yes, Trump proudly says he is a “nationalist.” 

He is, of course, saying this to shore up support among white nationalists. The Nazi sites on the web were all having wet dreams in the aftermath. From the 1990s, polling has found that about 10% of Americans support far-right militias. These are the white nationalists. Trump came to power by mobilizing that 10% and combining it with Republicans and independents. It is not an accident that Benito Mussolini called his party “Nationalist Fascism.” The two go together. Trump performs the “fascist” part of this two-part term every time he does a rally, so he doesn’t have to say “I am a Nationalist Fascist,” i.e. a Mussolini-ist. But that is what he is. " He intends to mobilize his supporters in the far rightwing gangs, in the police and the armed forces as Black Shirts if he can, to break heads. He intends to move the country to Fascism. That is what he means when he says, “I am a nationalist.” Juan CoHe intends to mobilize his supporters in the far rightwing gangs, in the police and the armed forces as Black Shirts if he can, to break heads. He intends to move the country to Fascism. That is what he means when he says, “I am a nationalist.” Juan Cole

TIPS FOR FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26

Tell us the news here.
Question: if I feed magpies minced chicken frames, does that still give them enough calcium? Think of the minced bones.








  • Andrew Bolt ignores the advice of Zoologists, Vets, and Environmental Scientists to please don't feed the wildlife, in his case the magpies. Instead of attending to their rationale for not doing it at all Bolt the spoilt brat turns to trying to deflect the attention away from "don't do it" to an act of generosity of providing calcium to the undernourished birds simply presuming they are calcium deficient. Whether they are or aren't doesn't matter. Self-gratification is Bolt's real reason for reeding them.
    Feeding wildlife trains native fauna not to be wild and if Bolt disappears young magpies are left fragile for his absence.
    Mince bone or meat can cause beak disease leaving the birds unable to forage or defend themselves.
    Does Bolt know what excessive calcium does to birds and is he a behaviourist? His addiction to his own generosity is totally ignorant of as to why scientists have asked not to feed Australian wildlife. But as you can see Bolt doesn't care he knows better.

    Feeding magpies - Healthy Wildlife, Healthy Lives

     

    To feed or not to feed?


    Many people enjoy feeding birds in their garden, on their balcony or even at their windowsill, but this creates many unseen problems such as malnutrition, disease, and imbalanced populations of some species. Find out how to minimise these problems or, even better, avoid them altogether by providing more natural food resources for birds in your garden

    Malnutrition and disease

    Feeding birds too much artificial food may not provide adequate nutrition which can lead to health problems. An example is the feeding of mince or processed meats to Kookaburras. This might seem like a treat but it lacks nutrients that they would normally obtain from their natural diet of insects and the fur and bone of small mammals. Anecdotal reports have been made of mince sticking to the beaks of Kookaburras and Tawny Frogmouths, leading to infection. Mince is also very high in protein so a little will go a long way for a Kookaburra, and malnutrition could result. Huge problems can arise if the adult birds raise their young on this diet as the juvenile birds can suffer from brittle bones. Feeding bread to birds (even ducks!) can cause problems with their digestive systems as the bread ferments in their stomachs and honey/water mixes do not provide the complex sugars that a bird would get from the nectar of a flower. Further, processed meats are high in salts, fats and preservatives. Magpies fed items like devon have been shown to have high cholesterol!
    Diseases can also be spread inadvertently at feeding areas so if you must feed birds, ensure that you keep the area where they are fed very clean and well scrubbed. Our parrots, in particular, can spread Psittacine beak and feather disease at unhygienic feed stations, particularly where large numbers of birds gather. This virus attacks the feather follicles and the cells that grow beaks and claws. Feathers become malformed and eventually fall out whilst beaks and claws grow uncontrollably and can crack and break, leading to infections and potentially stop the bird from being able to feed. The virus also suppresses the immune system, opening the bird up to a range of secondary infections. Those mangy, balding Sulphur-crested Cockatoos that you may occasionally see are infected with this disease.

    Imbalanced populations

    Think about the birds that we fed - they are the ones doing well anyway, the omnivorous (eat anything) opportunists such as Currawongs, Kookaburras and Magpies. Increased numbers of these larger, more aggressive birds in many urban areas can be attributed to artificial feeding. For example, Pied Currawongs and Magpies have increased dramatically in numbers over time, forcing out smaller species from many areas. Currawongs eat the eggs and chicks of small birds. The quantity of food available also helps those being artificially fed to become very successful breeders, increasing their numbers further, which puts even more pressure on the smaller birds.

    Is feeding birds good for people?

    Yes, many people really enjoy the contact they have with the birds and regard them as friends. Often it is the only contact they have with wild animals and it helps them to feel more connected to the world.

     

    YOUNGEST LIB MPS FIGHT OUR MONOVERSITIES

    VIDEO: STOKER ATTACKS I note it's the youngest Liberal MPs - Amanda Stoker and James Paterson - who won this battle: "The national higher education regulator TEQSA will investigate whether universities are restricting freedom of speech." It will look at bans on even sarcasm and the changing of protection money from speakers who'd face protests.

    Bolt promoting the babies and wannabes of the illiberal cult sponsored by the yet again failed IPA. Is it strange that Bolt doesn't include Tim Wilson among this group? Maybe because he's a proud LGBTQI.  The term Monouniversity doesn't seem to really apply when one considers the diversity of students and staff on campus compared with the lack of diversity among those reactionaries Bolt is promoting as the "young generation".  Liberals and Conservatives support our institutions and want them to progress incrementally and change not just be destroyed.

    Bolt and the reactionaries who he supports seem to want to blow our Institutions up and we have seen recently from their actions over the past 5 years but failing over and over again to get public endorsement. The obvious recent example has been the Prime Ministership, Immigration, Freedom of Religion. Bolt's been calling for the total overhaul of democracy and fairness. He wants the privatisation of Universities and the courses within, Media, as we have known it and the ABC. Now that's neither Liberal nor Conservative it's Reactionary because he sees these Institutions as training grounds and not places for critical and independent dangerous thinking based on facts, data, research and analysis rather than just political opinion delivered without question.

    Bolt's notion of free speech is to have Yassmin Abdel Magied run out of town be made unemployed but promote Laura Southern an echo chamber of repetitive White Nationalist Neo-Nazi thinking. They'd happily go into Universities and burn books.

     

    RAPISTS BROWN, GIRLS WHITE. NO STORY

    Brendan O'Neill: "Britain is a country where a politician putting his hand on a middle-class woman’s knee causes more outrage than the sexual abuse of scores of working-class girls by men from Pakistani backgrounds." Anti-racism has become racism, and vulnerable girls are paying an unimaginable price.

     Bolt happily spreads the rumour that 1000s of young girls in Britain have been molested by brown-skinned men. He doesn't tell you the number 1000s is possible if one goes back over 40 years and that over that time all the assaults weren't necessarily committed by brown me or Muslims when one actually focusses in you notice that Bolt doesn't talk about the 1000s of young girls and boys molested and raped by the UK's white communities the priests vicars and scoutmasters the men like Bolt's mate Milo talked about like the numbers of Crown MPs and the Bolt's class that committed far more assaults than those Bolt likes to focus and dwell on because of their skin colour and religion. When you consider those he doesn't mention you see just what a history of racist thought Bolt actually harbours. Who will speak for the kids of Huddersfield by the good white people of Huddersfield who aren't mentioned or got away with molestation over the past 40 years? There is I/m sure more than just25 cases a year.

    "Overwrought" rhetoric  it sure is when  spoken to a crowd of thousands in a stadium. Even Fox News got sick of broadcasting it live because even their audience and advertisers had switched off so they only showed edited snippets of what Trump wasn't paying for. A Hitleresque or Mussoliniesque speech designed to insight a crowd and directed at garnering the support of over 10% of the Neo-Nazis and Right-Wing Militia that had voted for Trump before to come together for the midterms that is overwrought. Trump wouldn't have them sit at his dinner table but would have them throw hecklers and media men out of the stadium if he so wished. 
    "I'm a Nationalist too" isn't the same as saying "I'm a Patriot" it's addressing those that supported the murder at Charlottesville. Those that support all the right-wing terroists that have been arrested since Trump gained office. All those that Trump endorses as good old fashioned Americans standing up for their rights against the Socialist left that has taken over America and the Fake News providers that America was blindly once proud to call the best in the world. Today under Trump have become the worst and what were once regarded the worst are now according to Trump the best.
    Wasn't it October the 12th 2016 Andrew Bolt laughed at and degraded Donald Trump regarded him as the worst nominee and liar in history to run for office? It surely was but he changed when Murdoch's business model saw Trump as an opportunity to make $$ to become an apologist for him calling him a victim of fake news and then being his PR agents. Reacting  as an opposition to everything ever written about him by the legitimate press in the US and to side with the likes of Breitbart, PowerLine, The Daily Caller and all the other private dirt rags to sell him to America and the world like a polished turd. After all they had experience they'd done it for Abbott and continue to do it with the backing of the IPA and it's members.  They were there to sell Trump  to those that still believed in the American Dream apple pie and cream, that anyone in America can become President with due diligence hard work and merit. All a total lie when examining the real Trump
    There is a distict difference when the NYT calls for articles of fiction and Trump calls the Nationalists in the NRA to arm themselves and make America Great Again. The result has been exactly that an increase in deaths by right-wing true believers. The same can't be said of the NYT or any equivalent.
