solarbirdHEY EVERYONE DOING PROTESTS LISTEN UPOne addendum to the last post:We need to do our own reporting. We need to talk about these protests. To everyone. You need to post about them, at least to say you did them, that you were there.The media’s not reporting it, so WE HAVE TO REPORT IT INSTEAD.Which is one reason why I’m writing all this up. WE have to spread the news, because THEY will NOT.Seriously, the fash podcasting littleman I talked about last post? He was literally the ONLY media to show up. No other media was there.So once again, we have to be that media.

Bin Chicken 🗑𓅠Antony Green has delivered the killing blow to the hopes of any RWNJs who thought they had a chance of winning. Roger Cook has been voted-in to give Labour another term to govern Western Australia.Western Australia continues to be a wasteland for the LNP. I wish I could say it's because the ALP are brilliant strategists or have amazing policies, but it's starting to seem the ALP has been coasting for years, and the LNP have been a hot mess for years.A stand-out example of this is Liberal candidate, Basil Zempilas, who said to the ABC that he's the victim of a massive smear campaign. In reality, the only person smearing Basil Zempilas is Basil Zempilas — he defames himself every time he opens his mouth.It's too early to say with any precision, but I would like to think that when the final votes are counted, the LNP have a similarly dismal presence in Parliament as last term, when Labor won 53 out of 59 of the seats.<a href="https://rants.au/tags/WAPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WAPol</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/WAVotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WAVotes</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/AusPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AusPol</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/RogerCook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RogerCook</a> <a href="https://rants.au/tags/AntonyGreen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntonyGreen</a>
