#BreakTheDuopoly

Continued thread

Sadly, in the “Lucky Country”, considering the Indigenous people experiencing poverty, disabled people, etc., isn’t regarded as ethical.

This is another example of the continued institutionalised, systemic devaluation of marginalised lives in policy design, here and around the world, by the colonisers.

If you think this will never happen to you, it can happen faster than you think. Very few are immune.

Remember when #JillStein was labelled a Russian agent... why do you think that story was put about?

"You know what they consider a Kremlin view? They consider reparations a Kremlin view. They consider the Civil Rights movement a Kremlin view."

The Senate report about "Russian social media influence" was written by people who later got caught running an election interference campaign using fake Russian bots!

@nando161 "This gave his #coward patrol all the permission they needed to play with their toys against mostly peaceful #protesters "
Media failing to notice that one side turned up with a wide array of weapons, the other did not. Guess which is which.

Why is it police and media are so quick to say "Fuck democracy"? Look to their masters for that answer.
The entrenched stranglehold on power needs to be broken up. Vote Greens and Indies whenever you can.

@Gracchus Finally, finally those in power starting to call this out. It really highlights that our system of politics, which is essentially an us vs them approach, just isn't fit for purpose in modern day Australia. I'm sure neither side of the #CapturedDuopolyGovernment (and especially their masters profiting so much off this current system) would willingly give up power to try a new system of goverment, so the best we can hope for now is to #BreakTheDuopoly by voting Greens and Indies.

@dee_le_brun If only late delivery penalties were never scrapped and you know, basically opened the floodgates to the super-massive-profits-driven-gravy-train...

PS. It's not too late to return to a late delivery penalty style system, if only value for taxpayer money were an inkling of a consideration for either side of the duopoly government.

@mojo LNP and Labor politicians over the past 50 years or so have sold out the citizens. Those who are supposed to work for us have instead been working for themselves and for the benefit of rich corporations and individuals.

There is something you can do to change this.

Reducing the power of the #CapturedGovernment is the thing they fear the most. How do we do this?

Vote Greens and Indies whenever you can to #BreakTheDuopoly.
Encourage your family and friends to do the same. #auspol
