- Comment on Australia's Federal Court clarifies: Anti-Zionism and criticism of Israel is not anti-Semitic 2 days ago:
www.abc.net.au/news/2025-07-01/…/105480506 is mentioned here, but it the framing is a bit different and the ruling a little more detailed. (Probably a better source out there but I’m also on my phone)
- Comment on NSW to ban people from appealing if working with children check denied 3 days ago:
I assume a working with children check wouldn’t have a high standard of evidence and a candidate probably doesn’t need a conviction to fail the test. E.g., it would be enough for a previous employer to say “Oh yeah we couldn’t prove it but we had some serious complaints that he was fiddling kids”. If that is the case, I really don’t feel comfortable with this direction. If its more of a case where theres some established quantifiable criteria that would never reasonably pass appeal, the sure… but I don’t get what this solves except to save resources.
It strikes me as a opportunistic politics to appeal to the emotion of voters–which is just tacky.
- Comment on Could this be the death of Australia's nightmarish welfare system? 3 weeks ago:
100%. There’s so many people who want to “touch” the project so they can get some credit for it, making things take easily four times as long as it should and in the end you have an unmanageable, noncompliant mess.
- Comment on Is it wrong or uncommon to judge people primarily on their worst moments/acts? 3 weeks ago:
When asked how he could admire an airforce general despite being a pacifist, MLK jr responded "I judge people by their own principles – not by my own.” Judge that redditor by the principle of someone whose career is helping children but instead exploits them.
I agree it doesn’t matter how many children he’s helped. I’ve heard from my Hindu friends that good deeds won’t naturalise bad Karma. Im not religious and don’t believe in karma, but I think this is well grounded. It doesn’t matter how many children he has helped, it doesn’t change the fact that he has damaged so many others for sexual gratification.
The guys a vile worm, and think you’re right to judge him.
