He didn't even get that much prodding, just a few questions, a bit of push back, and he completely flipped his lid, ranting about secret groups trying to destroy 'his' country. A friend of mine recently said to me something that really stuck with me. If your politics are based on whatever makes you personally least uncomfortable rather than positions being ethically or morally defensible you can't make a distinction between criticisms of your positions and/or actions and personal attacks. So instead of apologising for being wrong and having done harm, i.e. owning your mistakes, you continue to try to minimise discomfort by going on the attack at the source of the discomfort which is the person pointing out you did harm.

In better news: Guardian AU posted:Australia is reinstating funding to a key UN aid agency amid growing concerns about the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The foreign minister, Penny Wong, announced the decision to unfreeze $6m in emergency funding for UNRWA on Friday, as part of a broader package of support. Australia was among more than a dozen donor countries to suspend funding to the agency in late January, after the Israeli government alleged that 12 UNRWA staff members were involved in the 7 October Hamas-led attacks on Israel. Friday’s decision to reinstate funding follows similar moves by Canada and Sweden. Whoops.

Electric Wrigglies posted:Basically, the ABC demonstrated its ideological opposition to nuclear. Yet when the discussion of why Nuclear has suffered under such resistance that has pushed up its costs, the O&G industry conspiracy is invoked as to why it had to be shuttered in Germany, can't get ahead in Australia, etc. The reason why nuclear has not been done in Australia is because neither the Labor party nor the LNP have supported it while in government, both have been much happier to keep fossil fuels going.

SecretOfSteel posted:Did I read right? Plain clothes police jump out of car and grab kid by the arm because he was acting "suspicious" (no further explanation needed) and shockingly he legs it back to the safety of his home. I mean "safety" jfc. Yep, pretty much. Unbadged cops jump a kid who's been mugged before, grab him without legally being able to do so, he legs it and then they shoot him in his own backyard because "he grabbed an officer's gun". Maybe loving cops shouldn't have guns if they can't keep hold of them. Absolutely loving sickening. Note this happened in 2020 and the investigation is only finalising now in 2024. I wonder if those same loving pigs have been harassing kids for no reason the whole time since.

Guardian AU posted:New South Wales police have rejected calls from the state’s police watchdog for updated training and protocols for officers on the use of force, especially when handcuffing children, after a scathing report handed down last year. In its Operation Mantus report, the NSW law enforcement conduct commission (Lecc) said the way police were trained should be changed and ongoing education provided to officers. Among its 19 recommendations, the commission said there was the need for “ongoing assessment as to whether it is appropriate to leave the person handcuffed after the arrest”. The police rejected the recommendation, along with another three, saying that when any police power is used the “involved officer must justify the use of that power”. What a pack of loving cunts.
