This week was a circus of distractions.
Jacinta Price lit a fire with racist dog whistling about Indian migrants, copped a backlash, refused to apologise, and still had News Corp backing her all the way. Meanwhile, Murdoch tightened his grip on his global propaganda machine, and Labor quietly green-lit 50 years of gas with no royalties for Australia.
And while the world obsessed over the assassination of US right-wing TV host Charlie Kirk, our allies were literally shooting starving Palestinians at food drops. The media turned a blind eye.
Distractions, distractions. They keep us looking the wrong way while the real power plays go unchecked.
