"Dr Meger's team looked at six extremist movements: incels; far-right; white supremacy; far-left; anti-feminism; and religious extremism. Misogyny was the key ideology that cut across all of them" www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08...
Misogyny identified as biggest red flag for violent extremism
A new study finds that violent attitudes towards women are not just a social issue but a matter of national security.

In some U.S. states you can open carry an AK47, but you can’t see a gambling ad. Americans look at our gambling advertising the way we look at their gun control – as a damaging risk to the country. Co-CEO Richard Denniss lays out these risks in the latest episode of “What’s the Point?”. #auspol
What she is protesting is depraved human rights violations
@elfdock.bsky.social · 5d agoSenator Lidia Thorpe has introduced bills to Federal Parliament to end two harmful practices in criminal legal systems across Australia: the strip searching of children and the shackling of people during childbirth.
The worst part about this week's sexual assault headlines is that it's the tip of the iceberg. Most SA & FDV goes unreported. We know why. Today's women & girls also deserve the safety & justice that our current prevention strategies will deliver for our kids. womensagenda.com.au/latest/a-wee...
A week of headlines that laid bare the horrifying reality facing women in Australia
Seven days of headlines about sexual violence, threats and misogyny show what women are being forced to live with.

This week has made it clear: When Albanese said “no-one left behind”, he meant corporate lobby groups. #auspol
The Point@thepointau.bsky.social · 5d ago“We saw that in the gambling advertising “reforms” as well – both Angus Taylor and Anthony Albanese pretending this was about “balance” and that the people’s right to have a punt was protected” writes @amyremeikis.bsky.social Read the full piece on The Point: thepoint.com.au/opinions/260...
Remember that, while it was waiting for Israel to exonerate itself for killing an Australian aid worker, our government invited Israel’s head of state here for a propaganda tour.
Australia is about to save $37.8 billion by cutting the NDIS. Amazing how quickly we can find "savings" when the people losing the money are disabled. Try finding $37.8 billion from billionaires and multinational corporations and suddenly economics becomes incredibly complicated. #auspol
🚨This is happening right now 🚨 Labor + Coalition + One Nation just cut a secret deal to pass laws on ASIO's power to detain and interrogate you without charge with a warrant issued by a politician. They're trying to do this while media is distracted.

Thomson Reuters, which owns news agency Reuters, has signed a $125M deal giving ICE access to its databases of personal data. USA Today has partnered with Palantir to gain "actionable intelligence" on its audiences. The media should be opponents of Trump's police state — not collaborators.
Today we have issued a joint statement with the other members of the reference group that the government convened in response to the discovery of unlawful welfare administration. You can read more on The Point: live.thepoint.com.au/2026/08/the-...

Is it just me, or is the real question why someone would want a sex doll with "bruises and grazes"? Unless, of course, we have a societal norm that injured, lifeless women who can't give consent are somehow fair game? www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
A ‘body’ found in a suitcase was actually a sex doll. How did NSW police get it so wrong?
Officers – correctly – may not have fully unzipped the bag containing the lifelike doll to avoid destroying evidence, one expert says

Albo is telling us who he is. We need to believe him. He's the same person who called our foremost child sexual assault survivor/advocate "difficult". Excusing the objectification of women or their body parts as "daggy" is to defend the problem at the root of VAWG - treating women as lesser
Kaz Cooke@kazcooke.bsky.social · 2w agoI'm so sick of men getting a pass for being hurr hurr creepy. A 'daggy uncle' making sex or breast jokes isn't funny. At best it's telling girls they can be deliberately embarrassed & disrespected even by family & at worst it's grooming. Melons? FFS it's not 1978. www.theage.com.au/politics/fed...
The Productivity Commission has been pretty bloody quiet about the NDIS cost increases. Weird that it doesn’t want to defend privatising public services as being more efficient and affordable…

When more than half of the population is at risk - women and children - it's a public safety issue. Where is the leadership?
Toula Drimonis@mtltoula.bsky.social · 3w ago“For a long time,” Chan says, “misogyny was dealt with as a domestic issue within the family home or within personal relationships. There needs to be an understanding that this is a public safety threat.” @cultmtl.com cultmtl.com/2026/07/trea...
