I never paid attention to the newspapers, so I don’t know if it’s always like this.

All defending maximum murder or suffering (through genocide or global warming). What the hell is wrong with this country?

If these are the sources of information of a population it’s not hard to imagine the result. I am really hoping it’s just the rich playing with their toys (the newspapers) the way they like, but that it is not really effective in brainwashing the population. That they question what is fed to them.

Anyway, I just thought it amazing and to share my depression with more people. Maybe that’s just every day news and nothing unusual. I imagine it’s probably all owned by the same zionist or super villain or something.

Since the image can’t be read, the one on the left says that if Australia doesn’t support the international court on netanyahuhaha the country becomes terrorist. The second is the typical “people are not supporting my genocide, I’m being holocausted”. The third is asking for harsher punishment for those “fools” destroying the economy and wasting people’s time with imaginary environment issues that could lead to human extinction.

edit. I posted to lemmy.world by mistake. Lemmy is so confusing... edit2. Is the image showing? It didn't show the first try.

"Activists expect leniency"

Fuck that I was prepared for the $22k fine, I wasn't keen on the prison time but it was a risk I was willing to take. Everyone who was arrested yesterday feels the same way.

Fossil fuel billionaires do not contribute to the economy, they rape the earth stealing natural resources and rake in profits with next to no taxation. We stood in solidarity with workers this last week, we're the ones fighting for a better economy for Australia. Chants in support of the Maritime Workers Union could be heard across the channel, Rising Tide wants their future careers to be secure. They are not just tools for profit to be discarded when the earth is destroyed.

And finally I'll always stand up for Palestine, I'm pretty damn proud to have been out there on the water wearing my keffiyeh. Fuck the news media, they've destroyed the nation I once loved and are essentially what radicalized me.

You sure can, there's a fundraiser to help pay legal costs and fines. I fully intend to pay mine on my own, so hopefully this goes towards those who are facing larger fines and need the help.

And now reading this I realise I've miscalculated the size of my maximum fine lol (I'll still gladly cover it all on my own).
