Trump Bans Media He Does Not Like

This is fascist behaviour, the behaviour of an autocrat. President Donald Trump bans media he does not like and which is critical of him. Public office, for those unaware, is just that, in service of the greater public and not just those who may have voted for you. In a democracy, you cannot just ban parts of the fourth estate on a whim or made up stuff about national security. Pauline Hanson in Australia has banned the ABC and The Guardian from her events in a similar move. Public office holders should not be allowed to exclude bona fide members of the national media, especially when they or their political party receives money from the Commonwealth of Australia, as in the case of Ms Hanson and One Nation.

American Billionaires Control Your News Feed

Much of the news you view downunder is controlled by News Corp, which is owned by a right wing American billionaire. Facebook and Instagram are owned by another right wing billionaire, Mark Zuckerberg. X, formerly Twitter, is owned by yet another American billionaire, Elon Musk. American billionaires control your news feed. Can you perceive a bit of a pattern here, folks? The news you get either by legacy media or social media platforms comes via Trump supporting oligarchs. AI is likewise owned by a bunch of American billionaires, who have kissed the ring of President Trump. Your news and information comes via a filter, a right wing filter, which puts a decided slant on things.

Sydney Swans Stars Shit On Everyone Else

It can be a sad fact of life that as we age our lives become less in some sense. Perhaps, it is just that the hopeful factor thins, as the balance of time remaining tips the other way? Things like your tribal allegiance to barracking for your footy team can, somehow, become more important, as family grows up and leaves the nest. All of this preamble is trying to get the point, which is that the Sydney Swans have seriously let me down on the very eve of the finals. And not just a single player but the cream of the team. And not via anything that has happened on the field of play. Rather, it is something, so insidious and unexpected that it has been hard to believe. The Sydney Swans stars shit on everyone else. What for? A mindless good time? Vanity? Ego?
