When the media company that backs war criminals and rapists, and the newspaper that is trying to destroy Brittany Higgins, lecture us about male violence, it reveals where our "cultural" issues really are crikey.com.au/2024/04/30/vio…
Wow, you have to scroll a very, very long way down the Fairfax page to find the revelation about Indian spies in Australia.
I think you mean "Palestinians can be deported or exterminated, then Israel can colonise land it believes was theirs all along."
Rather surprised, shall we say, that @smh hasn't noticed Ms Williams' pre-event selfie video spelling out the PM would not be speaking unless he committed to "a bunch of stuff which he won't". smh.com.au/politics/feder…
this is one of the most important national security stories in years and badly undermines the dominant security narrative peddled by Fairfax and News Corp can't wait to read Peter Hartcher's piece blaming Beijing for this....

oh hello
If you want to talk about culture and male violence, it starts at the very top of the media. How the hell can Seven and The Australian lecture ANYONE about male violence given their record? crikey.com.au/2024/04/30/vio…
Israeli minister in defence and finance minister Smotrich tonight: “Moments before redemption, we must not hesitate. We must destroy Rafah, Nusseirat, & Dir al-Balah 'wipe out the memory of Amalek! …There's no half- measure. Rafah, Dir al-Balah Nusseirat absolute destruction!”
Exactly this 👇 You'd think we lived in a violence-free Eden before the invention of the internet/video games/TV/radio/novels/the waltz/reading, when in fact societies have become steadily less violent.

Grubby stuff from the Murdoch press -- accusing @jkeaneSDN, one of our great political scientists, of "doxxing" and causing an "anti-Semitism crisis". And @rhi_down throws in a reference to the vile Tim Anderson for good measure. Disgusting.
A great night at the Albies Futures Ball
So if online pornography is causing male violence why has the rate of domestic homicide more than halved since the 1980s? Or is the internet just the latest in a long line of new media and forms of content -- rap, TV, rock, radio -- that gets the blame from nanny statists

Good lord, "painting Palestinian flags"!!!!!! The network for rapists and war criminals ignores the thousands of butchered Palestinian kids in Gaza in favour of demonising anyone calling out Israeli atrocities. No wonder Seven's share price is 2/5ths of fuck all.

this is the most pathetic shit from the United Services Union. crazy that people aren't joining unions anymore!
"If there's a safety incident with your local SMR, they're only little, so the radiation would only affect a few square kilometres of a major city or suburb. We're not talking Chernobyl here." crikey.com.au/2024/04/26/pet…
Wait til this "Jewish group" finds out what Israel is doing to Gazan kids... they'll be ropeable
Gaza is suffering the largest food catastrophe on the planet in this century, as revealed by the Global Network against Food Crises (GNAFC) and other UN agencies. This starving Palestinian boy survives in a tent in the Rafah refugee camp without clean water, food, or medicine.
If you want to change the "culture" of male violence, there's a guaranteed way to do it -- lock up a lot more men and for a lot longer crikey.com.au/2024/04/29/vio…

I fully agree with @BernardKeane here. The court system needs to strike fear into men who rape or assault women. At the moment, the court system is designed to protect men who rape - it does so at the expense of the women who were raped. It has to stop. The system is screwed.
simply put, we need to make men much more scared of being convicted and spending a long time in jail for violence against women. history shows that works.
@Kate_McClymont @3wombats Never heard of KICK till now TBH: Doesn't interest me Are they threatening the safety of millions with warmongering and a Nuclear Holocaust?
@Kate_McClymont Appears to be only men following this streaming giant.
@BernardKeane Italians adore children and babies. Can’t advise re parking but you never have to worry about taking them in public anywhere, they are so much a more child friendly culture than we are. You and esp your partner will be treated like royalty for having a baby in tow.
@BernardKeane Well i got booked so I’m no good on parking tips Just head for any parking station The streets are a minefield Hiring a car just like here Can do before you go
@BernardKeane Go by train, bin the car, invest in a baby carrier as many of the tourist zones are not bitumen/concrete. Meals are totally fine as children are not treated as special category of person in Europe and are involved in the social/dining activities…
@BernardKeane Forget the car, go by train. Otherwise your holiday will be spent cursing traffic, the lack of parking & long walks from a far away park to your destination.
@BernardKeane Some of these have tips including car rental - have fun ciaobambino.com/10-tips-for-tr… annaeverywhere.com/traveling-to-i… diapersinparadise.com/italy-with-tod… harmonizingthechaos.com/italy-with-a-t…
@BernardKeane You can take your littley to dinner. Italian children dine out from a very early age. I stopped driving in Italy many years ago - too stressful. If I can't get there by train I hire a driver.
@BernardKeane Italian restaurants are very family friendly If you need a booster seat, it may be best to take your own. Even though we pre-arranged it, it was never available when we arrived. Happy travels.
@BernardKeane Car parking?!?!?? In Italian ‘urban areas’ lololololololololol, how we all did laugh. Forget it. Dining is great though - young children are very welcome at table if you dine early. Intercity rail is excellent, PT in cities is variable. DO NOT order cappuccino after 11:00am.
@BernardKeane We leased rather than hired a car, far cheaper for longer stay. Roads fantastic, toll roads cheap as chips, small cars preferred. Kids are welcome everywhere, traffic will stop for ppl w prams crossing roads, unlike here. Parking easier than expected. Keep to speed limits.
@BernardKeane The only advice I have is Naples is not pram friendly
@BernardKeane Italians generally love kids but other tourists don't so don't eat at tourists spots, eat with locals. Delis are fab so you can also opt for beautiful picnic style meals in amazing locations. The public transport system is very good, so no car seat worries amongst many others
@BernardKeane Lunch is the go with v small kids. Also being in self catering accommodation where you can retreat if everything gets too much. Are your small ones able to be carried in backpacks? Fantastic when you’re in a city/town with good public transport. Car better if you’re in country.
@BernardKeane Italians love kids, you can take them for dinners, you’ll find that they make you feel welcome - sort of the opposite of Paris
@BernardKeane Did this last year, was surprisingly easier than I’d expected, driving around and parking in little villages and old towns much easier to do than it looks. traffic generally was pretty good. a fold up travel pram was handy and dining out easy - high chairs everywhere and an iPad
@BernardKeane Wife’s Italian, kids are five now, we’ve done this. Italians love kids, take them everywhere. Strollers on medieval stairs and cobble stones can be hard work but lets kids sleep while you’re out. Take your own kids seat, simplified car rentals no end.
@BernardKeane I did Hong Kong regularly with my daughter as opposed to Italy. But Italians love kids so much, eating in restaurants won’t be any issue at all. Don’t drive in city centres. Far too difficult to navigate all the rules. Listen to Untold Italy podcast for driving tips.
@BernardKeane We did it a long time ago with a two year old and a five year old — drove around Italy, France, Spain, Portugal over about 6 weeks. Tiring but do-able. Car parking’s never easy in the big centres — find one, leave it there and walk. You get priority at galleries with littlies.
