Here in Australia we like to think that we're better than, and that we see through the lies of Trump and MAGA over in the US. But we unfortunately have our own brand of right wing populism with One Nation and Pauline Hanson. No one is beyond the potential for fascism, and we need to reckon with ourselves in order to change this global course...

"Gird-less gargantuan
In a mansion of misery
Unsuffering solemnly
Endless empty rooms
Atop slums of scorned scum
Who all silently succumb
To the poisonous trickle
Beneath the beast’s thumb"

Faces of Fascism this poem confronts the reality that we all have the capacity to do evil. Because when we don’t have this thought - we end up with faultless figures in power who do immense harm.

The image used is not AI generated by the way, its a photo that I took, and then edited to look like something ominous, or potentially AI generated.
