None are available due to conflicts of interest.

… and then out$ourced!

It would be naive to think this isn’t already in widespread use.

Continued intelligence & weapons. We saw what happened when they cut off intelligence last time. It doesn’t change the fact that the US has become an unreliable partner for Europe. Let’s hope that the fire under our bums is enough to enact real change.

It also makes for a waste of ink, for those judges and lawyers who are more comfortable with hard copies.

Challenge accepted.

I’d argue that your average communist is moral and trustworthy right up until the moment they get any power, then they are just corrupt(able) politicians, ready and able to fuck over group A to benefit group B, who they happen to favor more this week (decisions must be made, after all!). No system is perfect, and definitely no individual.

Big picture view: The scales will tip every now and then, but it’s ultimately survival of the fittest system that wins, with none existing in isolation - there are always external forces at play.

With that in mind, I’d put my money on more limited socialist-style-carve-outs like single payer healthcare in the US, more rent controls and housing subsidies, slightly better employee protections. Just enough to placate the masses, while the ruling class mostly continues as before. Even this will require a massive effort. Post-republicans, of course.

Great, finally they can include all the factual non-woke reporting about Donald Trump, Elon Musk and often underage hookers provided by the russian mafia and FSB, which mostly happened at Trump Tower as Trump’s business empire was being rescued by russian money. Perhaps it can provide photos from the non-woke archives. It could even be turned into a series of children’s stories to give them inspiration for their future careers of servitude and exploitation, which would be totally non-woke.

Meanwhile, the flu knocked everyone I know off their feet this year. Our last two covid bouts were mild knocks on wood.

Caesar only got popularised as a tyrant after his death. Trumpy-boy is getting ahead of himself.

That’s a minority. From what I’ve seen, the vast majority of Aussies are sheep, happy to be abused by their government and manipulated by corporations and propaganda (take your pick which). It’s just another fractured society, with apathetic masses turning away from the real world and living in their own bubbles of discontent.

Because that is ever going to happen in Australia?
