We need free speech here too.

That means they can stop AUKUS because Albo doesn't want free speech here in Australia.

Indeed.

And that makes Musk evil, don't you know. Freedom of speech is evil. White patriarchal heteronormative privilege.

It takes a complete moron to have the same response - a yawn - to every issue.  Industriously stupid: Bbwiyawn actually makes the effort to signal, relentlessly, just what a mindless moron he is. All the while sitting in a wheelchair with soiled nappies.  What a trooper.

You can see what HE has made of his years in the ADF.

You have nothing left, poor bereft cockwomble.
If you DIDN'T yawn you'd feel defeated, bettered.

How will Albo and Wong, Marles and Dreyfus manage this?

'The clear problem with the outlawing of insult is that too many things can be interpreted as such. Criticism is easily construed as insult by certain parties… The law should not be aiding and abetting this new intolerance.’

7. Media Censorship and Freedom of Speech
Freedom of speech: Trump has voiced strong support for freedom of speech and is aligned with figures like Elon Musk, who has advocated for reduced censorship on media platforms. With Musk’s acquisition of social media platforms, there is a shared goal to remove restrictions and allow a broader range of voices and opinions to be heard without censorship. Trump’s administration plans to restore freedom of speech across media, combatting what he perceives as media bias and unnecessary limitations on information sharing.

Impact on Australia
This shift in the U.S. could resonate in Australia, where freedom of speech and media censorship have been hot topics. The Australian government, led by the Labor Party, recently proposed the Communications Legislation Amendment (Combatting Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill, aiming to curb misinformation and disinformation on digital platforms. Ironically, the bill is being discussed in Parliament as media coverage is dominated by Trump’s victory, perhaps shifting public attention away from this legislation. If enacted, this bill could allow greater government control over content on social platforms, potentially limiting free speech under the guise of public protection. Australia may face increasing public debate over free speech rights, with Trump's approach possibly inspiring opposition to restrictions and encouraging the government to re-evaluate its stance on media regulation.
