Is it just me or is anyone else's feed full of these new accounts telling a well-known story and then ending with a question about the morality of the people involved? I'm seeing dozens of posts like the one below, mostly from accounts less than 3 months old.

Jesus Fucking Christ! I hope it wasn't deliberate. Some outlets are reporting that Helen Haines is in critical condition and is being airlifted to Melbourne. Don't know if that's true or not. I hope she comes out of it okay.
BREAKING: Federal MP Helen Haines was struck by a white Land Rover outside her electoral office on Murphy Street, Wangaratta, at approximately 3:30pm this afternoon.

#BREAKING: Federal MP Helen Haines has been struck by a car outside her electoral office in Wangaratta. #9News understands the Member for Indi has lost her leg in the incident, in what is believed to be a possible targeted attack. More to come.

How much you wanna bet he's an @AustralianLabor voter? The politicians importing these people into our country despise women and are happy to see them get bashed and raped. Look how happy @ACarbinesMP and @kmatthewsward are in this photo with him. dailymail.com/news/article-1…

According to some posts on Facebook, there are kids running around Westfield Doncaster Shoppingtown with machetes. I'm so happy to have moved away from Melbourne. It's bliss out here in Merrijig.

I won't be doing eBay sales to the US anymore. The government there is trying to make it as expensive and as difficult as possible for Americans to buy vintage collectables youtube.com/watch?v=SqsCRxML…

A bit of a loophole for Australian buyers on eBay at the moment. If you go to ebay.com instead of ebay.com.au, the item is quite often 10% cheaper. Only works with smaller sellers though, as eBay Australia now add final value fees to the sale price

I finally cracked 50,000 feedback on my main eBay account today. It took 128,000 sales and 6,000 purchases to get there. Not as many people leave feedback anymore.

I still can't believe these Police and the cop who head-slammed the man into the tiles at Flinders St were all found to have not broken the law. xitter.cf/paul_dowsley/status/13…
#BREAKING New video shows police drive into a man in Epping before an officer stomped on his head during his arrest yesterday. The man, 32, was unarmed and was earlier at Northern Hospital for mental health help but police say he was aggressive and assaulted an officer.

Lost my @Samsung Galaxy s25 for 40 minutes tonight, then found it in the bonfire burning in the yard. It was too hot to touch, so I put it in the freezer for 20 minutes. Other than a burnt screen and lanyard, it still charges and powers up. Toughest phone ever!
