"The veil of comfortable Western propaganda, the sheet that usually sits so snuggly over our eyes so we can sleep at night, is tattered and torn."
"We stand atop a boiling rock pockmarked with crumbling democracies, eroded social safety nets and education systems, weaponised misinformation disguised as credible news injecting status-quo PR into the hivemind, myth-making for cruel, wealthy assholes."
Words hammered out by a master wordsmith, David Milner.
I found myself looking at Albanese and thinking "I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed."
Then I came to my senses again. I š¢š® angry; š·š¦š³šŗ angry.
Shorten's election loss was devastating; Albanese's win was supposed to be the breaking of a new dawn. Instead, it has turned into a slightly less dreary day, with the same storms on the horizon.
Not happy, Jan.
