“Traditionally, #Queensland candidates, whether federal or state, promise to take the fight to #Canberra. They project themselves as defiantly parochial, unashamedly maroon, with a vested interest in the north. More recently, however, #power has shifted from the #regions to the #urban south-east, which is more likely to welcome new #arrivals from other states than Queensland country towns. Amid all this growth, the lines of #responsibility have blurred between federal, state and even local government. Rather than fighting Canberra, the parties – including the Greens, who thrive on street-level combat – have taken to #fighting each other.
At the last election, the #Greens picked up three seats in Greater #Brisbane, riding the winds of change. The #TealMovement was unsuccessful in its first federal foray into Queensland, in the seat of Groom, although Suzie Holt enjoyed a healthy flow of preferences and is running again.
For now, the closest thing Queensland has to #independents are Bob Katter and Gerard Rennick, but the south-east is becoming used to newcomers.”

Becoming Ungovernable
A Reassessment
https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/nikita-shepard-becoming-ungovernable
The teenage rebels, black bloc anarchists, and Invisible Committee polemicists appear to have their finger more squarely on the pulse of contemporary rebellion than the academics and theorists…
The moment you check out the breakfast buffet of your hotel…
…from which you walk away with a slice of dark bread with some olive oil…
…because most around you INSIST that for everything we do, someone needs to suffer or die.
(And yet we are all surprised how people can be brutal, when brutality is something most ask for for food and convenience. Every day.)

Who pays for recycling in Nova Scotia is set to change
Nova Scotia is making the change to extended producer responsibility, or EPR — a policy shift that puts the responsibility of the recycling materials on the producers that make those materials.

Always more apps and digitalization; always less genuine human support. Fuck that. A good education teaches not to be a bystander, to be responsive against cruelty, so kids and other targets won't have to seek recourse in some apps.

#alienated and #entitled on a topic that will *personally* harm them, no need for glorious appeals to #society and #responsibility
they need to learn to fucking #vote
or not vote for their own impoverishment and rights removal under #bigotry and #plutocracy
they will learn
the hard way
fucking morons
