    Repeal the SDA

    Substack followers are the first to see this. I wrote the words and it’s my voice, yet the rest of it is AI. Yep, there’s no real human in it. As a musician, AI scares the hell out of me. However, Australia’s Sex Discrimination Act (SDA) scares me more. It will be on X from 9pm AEDT on November 5th and YouTube / other outlets from the 6th Nov. Please share widely. Thank you.

    Repeal the SDA

    Ep 19: Gulag Australia

    Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) is an ideological dogma that has infected mainstream public and private organisations since the end of last century. While initially embraced as a ‘kind thing to do’, its rigidity has forced social changes that have eroded cohesion, trust and ambition. Once proud of a history etched through hard work and resilience, Australians have become disillusioned with a political elite hell-bent on mandating DEI with all it’s falsehoods and contradictions. Included in this is the denial of a shared and consistent rule of law. Who’s to blame, and what is the future. It’s not pretty for the lucky country.

    Ep 18: Australia's Broken Classrooms

    Satisfaction with public school education in Australia has totally collapsed since 2010.

    Ep 17: The End of the Rainbow

    Australian culture has entered a new era with the formal divorce of the Lesbian, Gay and Bisexual (LGB) community from the rest of the Rainbow Alliance. The rather touchy split has been in the pipeline for a decade with the two communities disagreeing on the most basic of realities - biological truth. Cultural change demands of the Trans & Queer segment putting personal identity over biological fact has alienated the very group that launched the rainbow flag. It’s a divorce that’s best for everyone - especially Australia’s children.

    Ep 16 MINI: Fixing the News (part 2)

    This is a 12-minute version of episode 16, Fixing the News (part 2). For people who like their podcasts fast and without the frills, this is for you. However, the message is the same, no one can serve two masters. Australia’s ABC is trying to serve ACON, the master of transgender ideology, while also serving their Charter, a charter that demands objective, impartial NEWS journalism. As Kit Kowalski states, serving both is impossible.

    Ep. 16: Fixing the News (part 2)

    Matthew 6:24, states “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other.” Most people in the modern world understand this, yet it seems lost on Australia’s ABC. Funded by hard working taxpayers, the ABC Charter insist on the highest standards of news reporting completely free from outside influence. That Charter has been ripped apart through the ABC’s alliance with LGBTQA lobby group - ACON (The Aids Council of NSW). Kit Kowalski explains how this relationship is shaping Australia’s workplace and cultural landscape.

    Ep 15: Fixing the News (part 1)

    Is the news Australians read, hear or view always objective, true and complete? In some news outlets, activism has taken over from journalistic integrity to push alternative ideas. Subjective opinion pieces are wrongly labelled as ‘news’, while important yet progressively unpalatable news is overlooked. Should our news stories be written with an ideological slant, or with a focus on reality? Who are the biggest culprits? You may be shocked. These chapters are AI generated. Please let us know if errors occur. (00:07) Media Bias and Censorship ExplainedMedia's influence on Australian society, concerns about bias and viewpoint diversity, and recommendations for objective journalism. Thanks to ABC Australia, Sky News and NewsMaxAus for the audio clips via YouTube. (09:25) Media Censorship and Bias IssuesInterview with Julie Szego. https://substack.com/@julieszegoJournalists face challenges covering trans issues, as well as others, due to censorship and bias by omission in media.
