I've been working to end violence for more than 11 years and it feels like the hurdles are becoming insurmountable.
Meta disabled by Instagram account on Sunday because it deemed my documentation of murdered women and children and my reporting on gendered violence to go 'against community standards'.
Meanwhile, horrible people are constantly sending me death and other threats, which Meta says do not breach its standards.
I have appealed the decision and am hopeful it will reverse the ban. Instagram is my key advocacy platform and also generates many of the t-shirt sales that keep my work sustainable.
I am so disappointed by this decision that I am struggling to keep going.
I am going to step back from socials for a little while because this has been a huge blow and I need to recalibrate.
I hope to return soon. Meanwhile, you are welcome to follow on Facebook, Twitter, TikTok and LinkedIn and you can subscribe to my blog and website via AustralianFemicideWatch.org

This is why everyone is REALLY scared of him. He is very smart ! It’s been so long since we’ve seen such directness and accuracy. We need more leaders like him in government.

“With the Royal Commission on Antisemitism and Social Cohesion, Australia’s long history of racism in all its forms, must be the focus, not antisemitism alone.”

These real estate genocidal landscapes are featured in the film NAZA - desperate developers coming to Sydney to sell war crime sites in which IDF sit deliberately murdering civilians - we should ban not entertain trade with Israel.

One day, we will look back at this time in Australia's history where the entire nation went to a vote and denied Indigenous people a direct voice to parliament while directly after that, the government of the day walked away and gave that voice to Israel - without a single Australian vote being cast or a person being asked.
One day we will wonder how we allowed Australia to be captured and ruled by a foreign nation, for our thoughts to be policed and our rights to artistic expression and freedom of speech curtailed by an unelected, South African born, multi-millionaire white woman from eastern Sydney who answers to lsrael.
One day we'll have to tell our children and grandchildren that this woman thought that protesting against a war where children are bombed and burnt alive in their beds is an evil thing to do, but marching with a Nazi protest sign is nothing worth worrying about.
One day we will have to explain this upside-down madness, this state-captured think speak we all allowed to happen and wonder why we didn't do more.
One day, everyone will have always been against this.

Seems the unions are rolling over. Australia's school children to be taught 'special holocaust theory' at the behest of a foreign lobby now supporting the Palestinian genocide
Not a word from teachers unions. Does Never Again not mean never again?

Jillian Segal the Albanese' Government's special envoy, has published, without probative evidence, what amounts to a reputational smear of our public broadcasters, ABC and SBS, as fostering anti-semitism though their Middle East coverage. @abcalumni statement here >>
ABC Alumni is outraged at the continued insistence by Australia’s Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism,that the ABC and SBS are contributing to antisemitism.

I'm less impressed by how @ossoff speaks (though he's terrific at that too) and more impressed by what he says.
This 2-minute clip is the best explanation of Trump corruption that I've ever heard. His explanation of the Russian dirty deals is so accurate and so clear. He knows the facts cold. And he explains them better than I can.

The NSW Government proposes to introduce legislation next week to undermine the community’s win in the High Court of Australia.
I’ll be speaking alongside Wendy and Tony, @JoynerSerena and Michael Caton at 11am outside Parliament on Tuesday.
Come along!

I've been in politics for a quarter century. It's hard to express how staggering it is to see a conversation like this on corporate US media. The Morning Joe panel gobsmacked by the directness of @AbdulElSayed's points.

The lack of accountability is extraordinary -Jillian Segal & her position should go, along with her advisor at large Yaron Finkelstein - great piece by @RonniSalt They are creating division & threatening our civil liberties

theguardian.com/australia-ne… my guess is Aussies will ignore the gun toting police until like at the Palestinian rally in Feb 2026 at Town Hall they were given the thumbs up to go feral and brutally attack innocent people. Next mowing down citizens in the street?
