Fighting Fake News with REAL' 21/12/21 Xmas Cartoon, Dr Susan Ryan Kooyong; Zali Steggell, Wahringa

 

 May be an image of 4 people and text that says 'I REFORMED I WASTED THE ECONOMY THE MINING BOOM ISAVED AUSTRALIA FROM THE GFC I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING'May be an image of 1 person and text that says 'FINANCIA REVIEW TREASURER UNVEILS $16B ELECTION WAR CHEST IN BIG-SPENDING BUDGET UPDATE Secret rorts before the election. Secret cuts after the election. The Sydney Morning Therald BUDGET RECOVERY FOR ANOTHER DAY'

 

 Santa will be delivering late this year

 May be a cartoon of text that says 'READY FOR TAKE-OFF.. TAKE- ΠOPE 18.12.21 DECISIONS TAKEN BUT yeT NOT ANNOUNCED Merry Election 2022! DECISIONS ANNOUNCED BUT NOT YET DELIVERED'

 

I can’t stand by while our local member votes with Barnaby Joyce on climate change.
That’s why I’m putting my hand up to be your community candidate for Kooyong at the upcoming Federal election. I share your values on climate, women’s safety and integrity - as your local member, I will be a true representative for Kooyong. www.moniqueryan.com.au
#Mon4Kooyong #auspol

"This government has had close to a decade to do what the Kooyong community wants – take real and immediate action on climate change for the sake of our children, our continent and the globe. If they won’t do that, then it’s time for others to step up and act where they won’t. I think people feel helpless around the issue of climate change. We need to remember that we do have a voice; we have a vote. It is time for each of us to make our votes count on the issues and values that matter to us.  

 

The people of Kooyong can have a representative who will listen to what they want; a representative committed to responsible economic policy with foresight and long-term planning, to integrity and honesty in politics, true equality and safety for women and girls, social cohesiveness with an end to the politics of division, and world-standard health and aged care." Dr Susan Ryan

Scott Morrison has failed to introduce a Federal ICAC, calling it a "kangaroo court". Now his ministers openly dismiss the need for integrity and the work of the NSW ICAC. I disagree. Integrity & accountability matter.
But I need your help to make it happen. Please chip in to our campaign so we can fight for a Federal  ICAC in Canberra

Fighting Fake News with REAL 24/12/20; Totally Fake News to Polish and boost a Turd for Xmas;

 

 Cannot accept his electoral loss: US President Donald Trump.

 Typical Trump he comes in and wrecks what exists. When shit hits the fan and reality bites and the news cycle has died down he returns and repairs his damage done with fanfare claiming that change as progress and  using every bit of media to announce his genius. Yes,he did it with imported steel raising tariffs to 25% when that began to hurt America's construction industry he dropped them again "fixing" the issue and the pain. 

 Now Trump is playing exactly the same game with the new relief package. Trump announced months ago relief payments were to be CUT wrecking the policy in place of $1200 by a 50% reduction to $600. Instead of drawing up a new Bill it would be part of an existing one which included many other things. So Step1 he stopped the $1200 contribution and promised the cheques would be in the mail immediately. They weren't! That Bill was only passed 2-3 days ago. The Trump promise was all bullshit.

 Now he's declaring he alone read 5000 pages of that newly passed Bill and discovered all these other things with what was meant to be a stand alone relief Bill. Yes, it was all bullshit and stage one in the Trump grift.  Stage 2 Oh that relief of $600 for heavens sake is too small. Yet, it was the amount Trump declared it was to be months ago. As for those other items in that Bill they were a total surprise to him declaring that it was always intended to be a stand alone Relief Bill so it was now all wrong so he was going to veto and Fix it. How Trump typical so many lies machine gunning out of his mouth at once.

In  true grifters style he's now offering a $2000  relief package and dropping all the other Foriegn Aid items from the Bill instead McConnell & Pelosi had simply got it wrong and a new Bill drawn up. No cheques in the mail. This announcement was to be a Trump triumph & media ploy and noise making him a hero of the day when he'd literally did sweet FA. The GOP has since convinced him to walk back on that $2000 to $1800 and shift the foreign aid over to pay for the increase. Trump's media declaring him peoples hero and polishing the turd. What had he really done? NOTHING

Trump pushes for changes to COVID stimulus bill, bigger payments

New Zealand would be honoured to take Behrouz Boochani. Australia be damned

Australia's Shame

  reinforces, I think, what a monstrosity hard borders really are. To function they invent categories. The worthy and unworthy, even going as far as to assign dehumanising “points” to prospective migrants. Perhaps the only thing worse than the hard border itself is the in-between places it breeds: Australia’s offshore detention centres; the Mexican borders towns where refugees and asylum seekers are sent to await their application’s fate; the Greek holding camps where Africa and the Middle East’s desperate and hungry hang their hopes on the remote promise of a future in northern or western Europe.

 

Challenge to Chinese-language election signs fails to oust Treasurer

 Australia has laws that make no sense. No sense at all. If you attempt to rob a bank and fail apparently you will get off. Particularly if you've won Lotto after your efforts.

 If you don't plan to and rob a Mars Bar but do on the spur of the moment and are Aboriginal and under 16 you will get 6 months.

 The details of my argument might be sketchy but the principles shown here are basically correct. (ODT)

 Liberal MPs Josh Frydenberg and Gladys Liu will keep their seats after a court dismissed a challenge to their election wins — but a senior party official could still face further action for authorising misleading election signage in their seats.

Andrew Bolt's Blog, 25/12/18; Bolt yell's "I'm not a Christian" but "me too"; Donald Trump's Merry Xmas Message to the Nation;











Trump tweeted that he was all alone in the White House.

 'Poor me': Trump laments being 'all alone' on Christmas Eve

Trump's lonely tweet, unsurprisingly, prompted a slew of jokes and references to Home Alone, a Christmas film that Trump once had a cameo in. Some people expressed concern over Trump's mental welfare at the happiest time of year, others were outraged that he appeared to be playing the victim while attacking a host of people in his tweet storm.



Christmas: A time for reflection. 63299.jpeg

 Christmas: A time for reflection

 Why do conservatives in Australia more so than other Western Nations drag individuals backwards preventing us to be our authentic selves? We seem to be 20 years behind in our Cultural practices and gender differences who are better informed than transgender Australians? What would we do without the ABC and the Drum (ODT)
We do not want war, we want to get along with one another; we do not want to hate each other, we wish to share cultures and to understand and celebrate our differences. This is my Christmas Message for 2018. I wish my readers, supporters and those who hate my guts and send me death threats just because I am honest enough to say what I think the very best for this season, and for their families and loved ones, and a Happy New Year full of good health, good luck, opportunities and all they wish for.
In Russia, Grandfather Frost (Ded Moroz) and his grand-daughter, Snegurochka, the Snow Girl, bring presents to good children, on New Year's Eve. This inclusive and gender-equality example, embedded in Russian tradition, can be translated into a message of global goodwill.
Suppose people take the reins of power into their hands, informing themselves and questioning the official lines of events, understanding that we are all and should all be equal, from birth, man or woman, black or white, Moslem, Buddhist or Christian or whatever, rich or poor, beggar or thief?
Let us embrace each other and celebrate our differences, let us learn each others' languuages (now I am teaching myself Mandarin Chinese), let us research our varieties in terms of religion, in terms of culture, music, literature, plastic arts, let us embrace our neighbor whether he or she is a he or a she or an it, a transsexual, a gay, a lesbian, a queer, a bisexual, black, white, green, blue, pink... these are labels which do not define the "who".

Andrew Bolt's victimhood explained 







In urban Sweden and heartland America, xenophobic fake news looks the same

 

 Bolt successfully mobilizes and enables anti-Muslim and racist extremists. His far-right media, and fake news sites are coordinated campaigns to promote misinformation. Their motivation may stem from an ideological agenda, the desire to create chaos, And though his misinformation is usually later debunked, the truth generally fails to travel as far or penetrate as deep as his original story, allowing a steady drumbeat of misinformation to continue.Andrew Bolt's approach to penetration of mass media is rape of the psyche, the promotion and enablement of hate


 

Child Marriages in the USA, not a "Muslim Problem". 

 


How often have we heard Andrew Bolt refer to it as a Muslim problem?
“They are for child marriages”. Who has not heard that myth about Islam and Muslims? But what about the USA? There are states in the USA that allow marriages of children aged 12,13 or 14, and has done so since the 1700s and 1800s. And guess what? It is mainly a “Christian” problem.

 

  The Myth about the "aggressive Muslim" | loonwatch.com

Antisemitism Germany 5You have all heard the Myth about the aggressive Muslim: the “terrorist”, the “criminal”, the “rapist”, the person that “inherently is prone to violence” just because he is Muslim.
This myth has its origin in classical antisemitism. I wrote about one part of the myth earlier this year: “are Muslims Rapists“. The slander about “aggressive” and “criminal” Muslims has the same origin

"Deep Throat" Mike Felt Deputy Director of the FBI was the Watergate  whistleblower and let it be known that Nixon was interfering with the independencee of the FBI and was lying to the public in 1972. It brought about the resignation of the President. "McCabe told investigators that Comey told him about numerous conversations he had with Donald Trump, including mentions of a "loyalty pledge" of some sort. These independent confirmations strengthen Comey's statements and memorialized reports of his recollection of interactions with Trump."

Andrew Bolt's Blog;21/12/17; Will Bolt surface from his racist rock? LNP Pride, Bolt and Black Pete; Coal Power and it's finance shrinking in India;






11m
What are we to make of the fact that Bolt's only link seems to be himself  in an excercise of self -promotion of course. The fact that Sky is a tax deductable product on Foxtels books and is run and financed out of HQ America is totally ignored. Raising Sky fees makes little sense to Telstra given it's struggling to get subs here. It simply increases their revenue and the tax Telstra pays
 So the term "delivered much bigger audiences" which Bolt insists using is usually one accompanied by "off a small base" which in the scheme of things is meaningless. Bigger audiences on Foxtel is like changing deckchairs on the Titanic.  and reflects the impact of Netflix, Stan and others on Foxtel and not any real rise in Sky.
If Sky was so successful why was Murdoch so desperate to buy Ch10 which was sold to CBS? Ratings of course. Desperate, seems mild under the circumstance given the number of times Murdoch tried to prevent the deal. Now that 21st Century Fox has gone the pressure on profit gouging in Australia is a must because News Corp is haemorraging money in Australia and Foxtel seems the only means to do it. Not with Sky however but SportFinally, it seems appropriate that if as Bolt admits Sky offers only conservative propaganda and not news that it's neither fair nor balanced it will remain a niche in the Australian market. If facts are constantly cobbled together to substantiate false news purely ideologically driven interest it will never be a go to news service or a trusted one.  It's lurch up or down will always be off a small base. Telstra has bigger fish and profits to worry about than Sky.
1h
Yes, Bolt is on holiday repeating a link to himself back in August which wasn't even put together by him but by his elf Peter from BH. We all know the ALP have been laughing at the project because it requires a Coal -Fired Plant to make it operable or of course clean renewables and battery storage. We saw just how successful the Tesla battery has been how fast it was installed and how successful it been in operation. Bolt's talking of $12 bill Tesla has proved him moronically wrong.

 (Does having a mental illness exclude the possibility of also wanting to kill for your faith?) Bolt
Obviously, Bolt like most conservatives has no knowledge of nor even wants to admit that persons with a mental illness quite commonly believe they are being directed without any reference to religion. Psychiatric dysfunction would have had a history of Psychiatry blaming Christian religious belief for mental breakdown, violence and murder throughout history more so than Islam.
" Police say the man deliberately drove into the pedestrians. A second man arrested was seen filming the incident and had three knives in his bag, but police now think it "quite probable" he was not involved." Bolt
Notice Bolt use of suggestive reporting that this was some organized terrorist act only at the very least does let it be known the police think "quite the opposite of him" as of their report dated 7 minutes ago. How is it Bolt has what appears to be more information yet he's on holiday.
As I have mentioned before Bolt's Racism has brought him out from his holiday why would that be? It began on his son's podcast mocking the Sudanese, Then exaggerating the events at Stkilda the 200 has now dropped to 100 rioting youths. Whatever it takes Bolt won't give up after all he's infused with a culture that has always had an attitude that never saw blacks as equals just black Petes at best.

21/12/201721
The only facts pertaining to this post is 
1) Bolt is on holidays and seems to be saying he's not he has all the facts on his fingertips and knows more than the police involved in the case who are working on it full time.
2)  Bigotry it seems is all that one requires solving crimes coupled with smearing any Institutional authorities or experts that get in the way
3) When Africans complain Bolt no longer suggests they are  Muslims but doesn't mention they are more often than not Christians who just happen to be black and are doing what Australian kids have been doing for years. Gang wars and gatecrashing parties.
4) When any Africans complain it Bilt and his kind that raise the issues of "Black Racism" and the victimization of the white community he insists Australia should be.
"Victoria Police under commissioner Christine Nixon even falsely claimed the Sudanese and Somalis were “under-represented” in crime statistics."
"Why the refusal to speak frankly?"
" He would not comment on whether the incident was linked to a nearby South Sudanese basketball tournament, which wrapped up on Tuesday."
" Yet police command still insists there is no "ethnic" dimension to this massive crime wave."

 

The 'War on Christmas' and other myths: Returning to a tabloid near you


Image result for Black Pete and Xmas
The annual refrain that Christmas is being destroyed is a right-wing cultural tactic to create the impression of a conspiracy out there to change society as we know it, writes Stephen Keim.
This is typical of the message put out by Andrew Bolt about everything not perfectly as white as he sees it. Sudanese Beauty Pageants, Gatecrashers, Australian Youth, Christianity, Welfare, simply everything about Australia is interfering with Xmas the way it once was.for Bolt  Mind, he loves the Dutch Xmas with it's Black Pete. It's welcomed here just as long as they aren't  real Africans. Controversial 'Black Pete' tradition continues in Australia for Dutch ...
 Christmas is supposed to be a time of coming together, loved ones and the spirit of giving; it's apparently also a time for racism like blackface, public rants and nut jobs targeting racial groups with black racist messages like: "stop being so racist you pigs" which Bolt's not shy using.

The Controversial History of "Zwarte Piet" ("Black Pete") - Latest Stories

" This November, a group of white extremists in the Netherlands blocked a highway to keep anti-racist protesters away from a parade that had blackface. A week later, ten people wearing blackface barged into a primary school in Utrecht, telling some teachers to “go back to your own country.” Within another week, three men in blackface came into an Amsterdam city council meeting and sat in the back until officials removed them."

 

 World's Largest Solar-Wind-Storage Plant Planned for India

"The fact that the World Bank has agreed to fund the project means that the tariffs would likely be extremely competitive, even with the existing thermal power plants in the country. The World Bank had offered debt funding for a 750-megawatt solar power park in the state of Madhya Pradesh earlier this year. The auction for that solar park broke the record for the lowest solar power tariff in the country at that time."

Significantly, the plant will receive funding through a loan from the World Bank, which announced this week that it would stop financing oil and gas projects to help the global shift to cleaner energy sources.

Andrew Bolt's Blog, 27/12/16; Remember how Bolt cried in pain; 6 of John Oliver's Best for 2016; George Pell and who is Bolt thinking of at Xmas; Xmas

Paul Kelly - "How To Make Gravy" - YouTube

 

"Without wishing to confirm every stereotype England cricket fans have about us, the only Christmas carol that can be described as authentically Australian involves a criminal. The Paul Kelly song How To Make Gravy  is about a newly imprisoned man lamenting the fact he will be separated from his family at Christmas. In his 2010 memoir, also called How To Make Gravy, Kelly said the song was inspired by the often-forgotten spoken prologue to Irving Berlin’s White Christmas which ends “There’s never been such day in old LA, but it’s December 24th and I am longing to be up north.” Kelly was struck how Berlin “intensified the feeling of Christmas by writing about not being there”.
Loneliness pervades Kelly’s song with heartbreaking lyrics such as “Won’t you kiss my kids on Christmas Eve” and “I’m even gonna miss Roger ‘cause there’s sure as hell no one in here I want to fight”. It is this sense of loneliness which makes the song distinctly Australian."

Pell witchhunt: new conspiracy theory

The media witch hunt against  George Pell has just taken a strange new twist with a series of tweets by a former Herald Sun journalist that have been picked up by The Guardian. The bizarre claim: that I somehow got the journalist dumped for her reporting on Pell. The truth? Read on.


  "George Pell has just taken a strange new twist with a series of tweets by a former Herald Sun journalist that have been picked up by The Guardian. "Bolt
This is the most noticeable quote here with regard conspiracy and it says it all but it's not what it appears to be. The once a rooster now feather duster ex Herald Sun journalist Lucy Morris- Marr has been transformed into the she-devil by Bolt yet again. I wonder whether her family thinks she is one or have they too become conspirators against Pell?  Do her friends and neighbors have an inkling of the ground swell movement on the rise implied by  Bolt's fake banner of a new conspiracy he is in immediate need to head off? Let's have a guess the story is nothing to do about Lucy Morris- Marr at all, it's all about Andrew Bolt. It has nothing to do about George Pell either it's all about Andrew Bolt.  Is it Fake News you be the judge.
"The truth? I publish it here so you don't have to read it there, even presuming that The Guardian would report it." Bolt. The bitch is and they are all liars!!!
The Truth? " Morris-Marr, a senior writer on the Herald Sun, defended her story, saying it was not the result of leaks or a smear campaign but grew out of an old-fashioned investigation." Lucy Morris Marr Andrew Bolt lashes out at Herald Sun reporter over George Pell story ... 
"And here is one more thing I know. This leak stinks." Bolt.  His evidence of a leak none.
 
Bolt did in fact treat hard journalistic effort as mere vexatious gossip and leaks he trivialized the reporter. He himself doesn't put in any such effort himself. The lack of  any true news culture at News Corp is well known globally. News Corp execs and their senior staff like Bolt are ready to step on any real journalists like cockroaches to get attention. To put it mildly Bolt hates University trained journalists and the schools they come from, their philosophy and teaching. They highlight the fact that he hasn't had any and that he's not in the business of news. 

This post's banner  shows  just how misleading Andrew Bolt is. The post it's not about Pell at all. It is in fact all about Andrew Bolt!! Judge Bolt on his history he readily starts a smearing wars  particularly against those who can't reply, even Pell was afforded that right by the Royal Commission and his PR agent Andrew Bolt. Bolt has never had a moments hesitation even maligning Pell's boss Pope  Francis for not being a stand up guy like George. He feels free to smear and mock him and does regularly. That's just the sort of journalist he is. His main line of defense against Marr is the Sgt Shultz response of "I knew nothing" but that simply defines him as the media man he is.
