 Nothing New in the ‘News’ posted by justin, 2015-09-06 01:37:50
There is no new/s today, it’s been the same for the past fifteen years, some would say centuries. Minority elites terrorise, distract and ‘manage’ the lobotomised masses via their communications apparatuses or mass media.

 Drowned Boy But How Much More Tragic … posted by gail, 2015-09-04 05:06:20
The mass media was recently forced to address the US/NATO created refugee problem in Europe, but please mass media, don’t breathe a word about the CAUSE. Millions of INNOCENT people have been displaced in war torn countries as a direct consequence of the US spreading chaos, destabilisation and mass murder under the banner of ‘liberty, freedom and democracy. The more stable Middle Eastern nations, which have already absorbed MILLIONS of refugees from Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and North Africa – regions where the US/NATO has violently intervened – are now unable to cope with the continuing influx.

 Police State: This is what the Abbott government plans for Oz posted by Natalie Evans via jake, 2015-09-01 22:47:45
Abbott is now a known quantity even among the most uninformed Aussies, austerity for the masses and vulnerable and a free ride for the wealthy tax-avoiding elites, which also entails tighter regulatory/police measures due to the extremely unfair nature of his elite serving policies. (full story)

Ignorance is Slavery Not Bliss posted by nano, 2015-09-01 00:49:28
The only hope a slave has of a ‘good life’ is to have a benign master that appreciates that slaves are a valuable and dangerous asset to be treated well in order to maintain work performance and to mitigate any inclination to rebel. But what happens when slaves are abundant or in over supply? Slaves become expendable, which eliminates the need for care and humane treatment, they become little more than disposable commodities to be treated with contempt by their masters. (full story)

 Abbott Fails His Six Month Probation posted by cyd, 2015-08-31 10:35:24
It seems that conservative politicians share the mass media memory wipe of the broader community, I seem to recall that after the Liberal leadership spill Abbott had six months to prove that he was a capable leader; well, the local media is full of Abbott’s ‘capable’ catastrophes as leader since the spill, one imbecilic scandal after another and to think that conservatives hoped that this leopard would change his spots, in your conservative dreams.

Matrix Of Control posted by joe contra via mike, 2015-08-30 09:38:28
What is society really like? We think, we know our neighborhood, friends, if we really have any, and definitely we know or at least we think we know something about our close relatives as well as extended family mostly through the personal experiences of our lives but also through the narratives that are proliferated among our family members about the society at large and ourselves within this society.
