Two days before the government tables the Digital Duty of Care Bill, the ABC rolls out "The State of Man", a show claiming algorithms turn boys into misogynists in 23 minute.
Laughable slop science aside, the entire moral panic, from the activist groups, the ANU studies, and the ABC show itself was all bankrolled by Twiggy Forrest’s Minderoo Foundation
So why is a mining billionaire paying NGOs and the ABC to push it right as Parliament tables a censorship bill?
Because the same government chasing control over online speech is funnelling billions in green energy subsidies and tax credits back into his company.
That’s the trade. They want men and women at each other’s throats horizontally so nobody looks up vertically. Forrest bankrolls the panic that hands Canberra control over your speech, and Canberra underwrites his balance sheet with your taxes.

Victoria Secrets: Please Explain
What’s hiding in Victoria's secret cabinet papers?
You’ll have to wait 30 years to find out.
When One Nation announces plans to release cabinet documents, panic sets in at Labor HQ.
With decades of corruption potentially about to see the light of day, Ben Carroll, Jacinta Allan, and Dan Andrews embark on a desperate mission to shred the documents before it’s too late.
But first they'll have to survive Melbourne's potholes, public transport, and the violent streets of the world's most liveable city.
Meanwhile, Jess Wilson has a plan, apparently.

Clennell acts like he’s still working at the Daily Telegraph back in the glory days when news was relevant enough to collect the occasional scalp and not host of the content between Global Shop Direct ads in nursing homes.
The Age prints the SMS exchange between Ashby and @aclennell, who really is a glass-jawed bitch, with a nasty bullying streak beneath it.

How is @shellenberger doing better work on Australian affairs, than most Australian Journalists based in Australia?
Taxpayers gave mining titan Twiggy Forrest's Fortescu A$308M in energy subsidies in 2025 alone, plus A$99M for an H2 project he abandoned. In exchange, Forrest gave millions for propaganda to pass @AlboMP government's censorship bill. It's a transparent, sinister quid pro quo.

One of the guys who is also on the prison consulting panel that I’m on is an aboriginal bloke.
42 years old, from the NT.
He did over 20 stints in and out of prison until he was 32, including juvenile detention at Dondale.
Got a six year whack in Victoria, and has now been out for a couple of years on the straight and narrow.
Talks about taking responsibility for his life, for his crimes and the people he harmed, and taking responsibility for the time in his kids lives he missed.
10/10 this bloke gets it. You can just tell.
This is the antidote to the woke poison and victimhood obsession that infects our society.
The law should be colour blind, the rule of law should apply to all, and when people take responsibility for their own lives and actions, we all win.
What do you think?

Great video about the tool box murders in #Logan
Two people were tied up, tortured for hours, then locked inside a metal toolbox. The men that tortured them then sat atop the metal toolbox playing video games and drinking whiskey for hours.
They were then plunged into the depths of a murky lagoon south of Brisbane, where they remained for 18 days.
The worst part? The friend who lured them to their deaths, assisted with the murder and prevented their escape, served no time behind bars.
🤣 @grok help me take Guido's advice. Educate me about how the Radiocommunications act 1992 applies to signal jamming equipment. Apparently I'm mistaken and need to study.
Yesterday morning woke leftards were offering gifts as a reward for criminal activity. By that afternoon Haines was in a critical condition.

An Indian public servant who just obtained Australian citizenship last week has been charged with stalking a woman who rejected his advances in Canberra.
He allegedly told her he could use government databases to find out information about her.

A Middle Eastern man just walked free from a NSW court with ZERO jail time after being found guilty of dealing nearly 1.5kg of meth linked to an international underworld kingpin.
Hatem Chaaban acted as the middleman for his cousin, housing then handing over massive quantities of methylamphetamine that were traced straight back to Bilal Haouchar’s organised crime network.
He committed three separate deals, a 75ml oil sample, 825g of crystal meth, and 551ml of meth oil in a jerry can.
He also took possession of $45,000 in illegal cigarettes and $50,000 cash as payment.
Both charges carry a maximum of life imprisonment.
Strike Force Tromperie, the investigation that caught him, seized two tonnes of drugs and 25 guns from the network.
Yet Judge Sarah Hopkins handed Chaaban a community based Intensive Correction Order instead of locking him up.
His cousin got full time jail for the same offending.
“Family connection” “no money made”“PTSD from Lebanon” “clean record” these were the excuses that convinced a judge to let a commercial quantity ice dealer back onto Sydney streets.
This is a disgrace.
Soft on crime courts are putting Australian communities at risk.

Do we actually care about women’s safety? Or only after they’re hurt?
Women’s safety and domestic violence are rarely out of the news cycle, and given the rate of crime across Victoria and Australia more broadly, it hardly comes as a surprise. Whether it’s the news about Sam Wood, or yet another woman losing her life at the hands of her partner, or a targeted attack like the young woman ambushed on her motorcycle and beaten by thugs who then stole her bike, the response from the people with the power to change it is always the same and it never seems to change anything. So, do we actually care about violence towards women? Because I’m finding it increasingly difficult to reconcile what our politicians say about women’s safety with what they’re prepared to let us do to protect ourselves.
I don’t know about you, but I cannot sit through another manicured press conference where a premier or an opposition MP gets up and tries to say the perfect thing for the evening news. We don’t need them to tell us it’s unacceptable. Of course it’s fucking unacceptable. What I want to know is when they will actually do something about it. Every time another woman is killed or brutally assaulted, our MPs manage to find the words by the six o’clock news, yet somehow, on the exorbitant salaries we pay them, they never seem to find the answers.
Words are cheap, which is why they’re so generous with them in an election year.
Women are being beaten, sexually assaulted and killed, and the people with the power to change that keep standing up to explain why we should be satisfied with what they’re already doing. I want to know what they’re offering the woman who has heard all their empty promises and still has to walk to her car or make her way home tonight. She cannot put her life on hold while they virtue signal their way into another term in Parliament, only to do sweet fuck all once they’re there.
I’m focusing on women because of the violence we keep seeing. The question of how you protect yourself reaches any of us who face an attack, whether you’re walking home, dealing with a violent customer or waking to someone breaking into your house. My own experience is why I feel so strongly about it. In 2024, my partner and I were victims of an aggravated burglary. Two youths broke into our home, stole his car, ransacked my office and took our wallets and cash. Thankfully, neither of us was physically hurt. Others aren’t so lucky. We’ve all heard the stories about the man stabbed in the face, someone slashed with a machete, a woman beaten black and blue, and when it happens to you, those stories stop being something that only happens to other people.
I was so angry that I took it to Parliament. Late last year I sat in the chamber while a petition I’d brought forward to amend self-defence laws, sponsored by Libertarian MP @_davidlimbrick , was debated. It carried 20,554 signatures from Victorians asking for stronger protections for people defending themselves in their own homes, and from where I sat I could count two Labor MPs in the room. All those Victorians, asking to be heard, and the Labor MPs couldn’t even show up and listen.
A Labor MP argued that existing self-defence laws already protect us and warned about the risks of people trying to defend themselves. Of course there are risks, but being assaulted in your own home or attacked while going about your day carries risks too, and those risks deserve more than another empty promise about tougher bail laws and a crackdown on crime. In August, Victoria Police’s own Chief Commissioner put the force nearly 1,500 officers short. You can’t keep telling people to rely on the police without making sure there are enough officers to answer those calls. I certainly haven’t forgotten how readily this government deployed police to enforce its COVID restrictions. Where is that determination when it comes to protecting people from violence and giving officers the resources and support to do their jobs?
I hate talking about politics. I hate how nasty, vicious and personal it all becomes, and how quickly a conversation about someone’s safety turns into an argument about which party you support. Whenever you question the government of the day, there are people so invested in defending their side that they seem more offended by your criticism than by the thing you’re criticising. I brought a petition to Parliament because someone broke into my home and I’m talking about women’s safety because I’m angry about what keeps happening to women. If your first instinct is to defend your preferred political party or ideology, I need you to stop for a second and understand why people are so fucking angry.
You only have to look at what’s made the news this fortnight. On the Central Coast, a man is facing more than 200 charges over the alleged sexual and physical abuse of three women. In Sydney, police allege women were targeted while home alone, restrained and assaulted, with one sexually assaulted. Another man has been charged over the alleged sexual assault of a woman walking from Flemington Station through a park, and in Canberra, a teenager who pleaded guilty to raping an 18-year-old woman received a suspended sentence. These are separate cases, at different stages of the justice system, in just two weeks. Is it really so difficult to understand why we’re angry?
What is a woman supposed to do between someone attacking her and the police arriving? We can demand better policing, tougher consequences and more effective prevention, but she still has to survive that dangerous moment. That is why I support David Limbrick’s push to legalise pepper spray. In Victoria, it is a prohibited weapon, and self-defence is not an accepted reason for an exemption or approval. I know it cannot make an abusive relationship safe or prevent every assault. I’m arguing that it could give someone facing violence another chance to get away, and that option deserves serious consideration.
The Victorian government argues that allowing people to carry weapons for self-defence risks escalating violence. Its response to David’s pepper-spray petition also suggested home alarms and security cameras, apparently overlooking the fact that we have to pay for those too. Since our home invasion, my partner and I have spent nearly $15,000 fortifying our home and securing our cars. We already pay taxes to fund policing and public safety, yet we’ve had to find thousands more because we no longer feel safe in our own home. How many people can afford to do that, and what are those who can’t supposed to do?
Meanwhile, Western Australia permits pepper spray for lawful defence under specified conditions. On 13 October, the Northern Territory announced plans to make its arrangements permanent after a trial involving more than 3,700 legal purchasers. Its Police Commissioner supported the reform and cited an incident where legally purchased spray prevented domestic violence, which is my whole argument. If Victoria believes refusing us that option offers better protection, I want to hear the evidence behind that decision. Suggesting we spend more money securing our homes does not answer that question.
Of course, pepper spray carries risks. It could be taken from you, affect bystanders or fail to stop an attacker, but we also need to consider the times it helps. Last year, Jeff Bourman told the Victorian Parliament about a man who jumped the counter at South Melbourne’s Gotham City brothel and attacked two women. He described a serious struggle that was stopped using pepper spray. If they didn’t have that pepper spray, we can only imagine what could have happened next. If you oppose giving women that option, what would you have wanted them to do in that moment? Call the police whilst being assaulted at their workplace? In those situations, seconds matter.
This Labor government and opposition leader Jess Wilson from the Liberal Party have ruled out supporting it, stating they want to focus on reducing crime. Even if a new government comes in promising to tackle crime, debating these proposed changes, passing legislation and putting those policies into practice could take months, if not years. Women still have to go to work, get home and live their lives while all of that happens. How many more people will be assaulted, and how many more women will be killed while we wait? If you’re refusing us this option, you owe us an answer about what protects us in the meantime.
I’m supporting David Limbrick’s “Fuck Around & Find Out” campaign because I want women’s questions about protecting themselves taken seriously, and I want other people facing violence to have this option too. I support regulated access to pepper spray, clear rules on lawful use and consequences for misuse. If you believe we should have the option of carrying pepper spray for lawful self-defence, ask your MP whether they support regulated access and what evidence informs their position. I want our voices to carry as much weight when we’re asking for protection as our names do when you’re reading them out in Parliament after we’re dead.
If you value my work, and you appreciate a woman with a loud mouth saying it as it is when the people paid to say it won’t, you can shout me a coffee. buymeacoffee.com/carlzjsoda
