Cocaine use fuels surge in Victoria’s drug habit

Victoria has overtaken NSW to have the highest proportion of cocaine users in the country.

Cocaine is NOT a working class drug yet the working class of the nation are policed and incarcerated at a far greater rate for drug use and drug related crime than any other demographic and it's never really discussed or addressed. Meanwhile upper class and middle class crime which are a far greater cost are generally allowed to go un-policed and unreported.

 

The  1 mill unemployed certainly aren't the cocaine users in this country

As a high-income-earning mortgage holder, my windfall has been twofold. First, last year’s tax cuts have delivered a boost to my take-home pay of about $93 a fortnight, or $6.66 a day. Meanwhile, the interest rate payable on my $700,000 (ish) mortgage has fallen from 2.69 per cent to about 2.13 per cent (thanks also to some savvy shopping around). This boosts my bottom line by about $150 a fortnight, or $10.74 a day.

Morrison’s JobSeeker boost is stingy, mean and bad for the economy

Diversity hit between the eyes as old media pockets about 90% of big tech cash

They got JobKeeper, LNP subsidies and now Big Tech Cash

The free money isn't enough to hurt the increasing revenues of big tech, but it is enough to hurt Australian journalism.

 

 

Politics of racism: Australia's Parliament and the malign effect of the Right

Racism |

The racist dogma prevalent in U.S. politics is something Australia can avoid if we don't become complacent.

 

 James Patterson has carried out a long-running campaign against Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 which bans racial vilification and is opposed by the extreme Pauline Hanson One Nation Party.

 To have a senator known for his right-wing attitudes in charge of the Parliament’s Intelligence Committee to deal with the threat of the extreme Right is not a cause for confidence.

 

 

 FAKE NEWS EXPOSED

 

HOW TO BE LESS WHITE. AND OTHER LESSONS FROM RACISTS

The loudest and most shameless racists are now on the Left. Check out Robin DiAngelo's  course on "how to be less white", on a training site that Coca-Cola recommends its workers use.  

Here is news you can use if your skin is now the most shameful colour in the world. Like workers at Coca-Cola, you can learn “how to be less white”.

You may think this course is just more proof anti-racists have now become the biggest and most shameless racists around.

Or maybe you really are as dumb as Coke.

According to Andrew Bolt DiAngelo is dumb but you couldn't be intentionally as obtuse as Andrew Bolt who unlike Di Angelo has been found guilty under Sections 18 C&D of the Racial Discrimination Act and continues his merry way maintaining he's the victim of Black Racism. The only lesson here is from a white racist faking victim-hood and so dumb to the history of this racist colonized country.

 Since Invasion Day Indigenous Australians have been the "racists" according to Andrew Bolt simply because they were pissed off with the white men invading their lands. However righteous anger isn't racist. The imposed colonial systems and patterns of behavior are particularly when regarded as normal over time. Indigenous Australians saw those oppressive behavior patterns institutionalized and imported to this country. Over generations they have been angered, intimidated and psychologically oppressed  by those White Supremacist Institutions for over 200 years. Andrew Bolt calls all those no matter their color "racists" for illuminating those truths and current day faults but  more so for demanding they be changed. Racist systems are social facts and can be studied and are by social scientists. They have clearly shown the systemic nature under which Indigenous Australians have been forced to live for over 200 years.

White supremacy has always been the dominant culture normalising the systemic pattern of behaviors that have governed this nation. We are a racist Nation and have inherited the social psychology that supports it. Today the fake out spoken self-righteous white "I'm not a racist" like Andrew Bolt claim to be just conservative, benevolent, anti-racists while also dominant but charitable whites. They simply want to maintain their superior inherited, inglorious, colonial systems and attitudes of yesteryear. Today's "new racists" according to  prigs like Andrew Bolt are those left wing whites and blacks who remind us of that inglorious past the foundation of today's still racist reality. Those that say sorry and dare want this socially constructed world in which we live changed. They are Bolt the bigoted fool calls the "Dumb un-Australian Left"

All Bolt has done is flipped the historic argument and simply declared the current righteous anger to be the "new reverse racism" and if you want to really be a true non-racist you should accept what exists as the natural evolutionary norm and grin and bear it. Forget that what exists today was founded on the history of global white supremacy introduced here by an inglorious racially bigoted colonial system and historically not all that long ago. 

 However there are no such things as "Reverse Racism" as there are no reverse racist systems. There is an obvious anger, a want and demand for equality, the recognition of the dysfunction in social structures that produce a negative psyche and the need for it to change. A recognition that color has been the historical basis of a White Racial Supremacist System needing root change. Those calling for it are neither dumb nor "racists".  There is a growing number year in and year out who wish to really live multicultural and colorless something that can never be achieved in Andrew Bolt's ignorant world so resistant to change.

Racism and inequality are becoming increasingly more obvious and brought into relief with Climate Change, the Pandemic and the widening income and wealth gaps forcing some corporations to promise to transition away from old habits and structures of behaviors Bolt calls dumb because his instict simply wants to protect. Yes Andrew Bolt colorless is less white.

Cuts to JobSeeker, Jobkeeper: out of the frying pan and into the fire

by Michael Tanner | Sep 27, 2020, | Government

Hefty cuts to JobSeeker and JobKeeper mean that Australia now faces a potentially more deadly epidemic than Covid-19. But it is largely avoidable, writes Michael Tanner.
 

Don’t Blame Social Media. Blame Capitalism.

A new Netflix film, The Social Dilemma, would have us believe that increasing social division and polarized political rhetoric is the product of Facebook and Twitter, and not the fact that income inequality has returned to pre–Great Depression levels 

Murdoch cops multiple maulings by media monitor

 More than 60% of recent complaints upheld by the Australian Press Council were against Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp.

Bolt denigrates minorities again

Andrew Bolt has not learned from previous adverse APC findings. Nor from losing the Popovic case. Nor from the absolute shellacking he copped from Justice Bromberg in the celebrated racial vilification case Eatock v Bolt.

His Herald Sun column in August 2019 referred to teenaged climate activist Greta Thunberg as ‘freakishly influential’ and ‘deeply disturbed’ and commented:

‘I have never seen a girl so young with so many mental disorders treated by so many adults as a guru.’

The APC slammed Bolt’s column, finding that ‘there was no public interest in undermining the credibility of a person, her opinions or her supporters on the basis of her disabilities...’.

The remedy

The APC has been in business now for 45 years. While its influence is positive overall, it has not curbed the continual distortions, falsehoods, character assassinations and smears published routinely by the Murdoch press.

For these to end, those publications must be shut down — as happened to News of the World in Britain in 2011 and to 60 unprofitable suburban and country newspapers in Australia this year.

So we must join and strengthen the boycott of the newspapers and their advertisers to ensure all Murdoch publications lose money and eventually disappear. Sooner the better.

They are down almost 40% in thpast 5 years and you can see Bolt ready to Bolt but he loves the money too much. Foxtel is looking just as jaundiced.

FAKE NEWS

VICTORIA SHUT DOWN WITH JUST FIVE NEWD INFECTIONS. INSANE

Just five new infections since yesterday in the entire state of Victoria - population 6.7 million. Yet millions of people remain confined to their homes, and thousands of businesses remain shut by law. This is no longer about protecting Victorians but protecting a Premier who knows he is finished if infections rise again.

We can see what Bolt spends his time doing while on his PC typing away in the Newd himself or watching it. 

 Covid-19 could be likened to Novichok, the deadly Russian nerve agent. We know it's there. We know it's poisonous and quickly spread, but we don't know where it is. One person, yes, only one person untraced in the community could be another super spreader.  Even if found, we don't know where they have or could have been could or are the trigger for another chain reaction?

The social system under which we operate was grossly inadequate, and it's that which Dan Andrews is changing and with the support of the Victorian public.

Andrew Bolt is the Quisling amongst us operating for the virus under the guise of "saving the economy" "saving our personal freedoms" with not a toss for any notion of "in the public interest" All about 'me' fuck' the 'we' I'm Andrew Bolt, and I naturally do what Dan Andrews expects. I isolate myself while telling you you don't have to go out and spread the news. Dan Andrews is a Victorian, Andrew Bolt is the Quisling

THE MADNESS OF DAN ANDREWS: POINTLESS BULLYING OVER POINTLESS DETAILS

COLUMN Has Daniel Andrews gone mad? Watch the Premier carefully explaining on Sunday which completely useless virus ban to drop and which to keep. Here’s a man losing himself in mindless detail, rather than just checking out the big picture, as if his busy-busy bullying really did make any difference.  

36m ago 

There is no "bullying". There is Public Interest. Bolt has no position on Public Interest of any kind other than his. It's in the guise that the individual is a stand-alone entity free to do whatever he wants.  Yes, it's all about Bolt, and if he doesn't like what you are doing,he will muster all his power to gather like-minded people to stop you. The result is the minority rule. Andrews was elected to Public Service to serve the interests of us all, not Bolt's minority alone. That's what Bolt is railing about that his claims are privileged and diminished by Dan's attention to Public Service.

TRIBUNAL WARNS SENATOR AGAINST SPEAKING

Some officials should be more protective of free speech: "A Tasmanian Liberal senator and her supporters have been warned they could be prosecuted for 'insulting' the state’s anti-discrimination commissioner in a rapidly escalating war over free speech in the transgender debate. Equal Opportunity Tasmania... suggests she could face prosecution..."

Like Bolt who was found guilty of racial vilification by the courts despite the protection of News Corp these senators have been warned. Justice is meant to be blind. 

PELL RETURNS TO THE VATICAN IN TRIUMPH AS ENEMY FALLS

On Tuesday George Pell flies back to Rome, a challenge to enemies caught in the Vatican’s worst financial scandal in decades. Those enemies hoped Cardinal Pell, the Vatican’s former corruption buster, would rot in an Australian jail on suspiciously false charges of child sexual abuse. But Pell returns in triumph, and his nemesis faces jail instead.

We don't hear the bells ringing Bolt is suffering from Tinnitus. Nobody will be carrying Pell on their shoulders. The Pope certainly wont.
