basil blind to perth

zempilas, opinion Point 9 certainly has a strange view of perth's "unique origin story".

he has thrown out the kebab sculpture. the WA designed and built collection of WA rocks mined in WA.

To be replaced by the dancing spaceman. a sculpture designed and built by an American. a reminder that we should dance while we enjoy a stay at a articular Caribbean resort.

what will basil choose to represent all of WA? 

perhaps the rather large shark sculpture from the same resort?

insensitive, perhaps, but at least it is appropriate.

Celebrate Australia Day on the last Friday in September. 

... a day on which

... in 1984

every Australian gained equal say in our democracy. 

Read our -- Australia's -- combined history.

forget hatred of anything Whyt.

read about the 1984 Bill for indigenous voting. 

a win for Blak and a win for Whyt.

Celebrate democratic equality.

Or just shut up and accept 26th Jan.

If all else fails -- get a bigger hammer

Sister Kate

an indigenous group has identified a Sister Kate's Cottage as a centre of a stolen generation.

now, 40 or more years after the cottage closed. the group has gained ownership of the cottage.

from here the normal process would involve a demand for an apology and millions of dollars "compensation". Because cash is a great cure-all for any emotional, spiritual or cultural hurt.

but no!

this group want to sit and talk... and heal

the old people will tell what it was really like.

the 

young people will tell what it was all for.

the aim is to gain healing and n understanding.

good on them.

it sounds brilliant.

I hope it is beneficial.

friendshit?

the US under Trump is doing things with tariffs which may affect the profits of Aus businesses.

so aus politicians remind US politicians of the years of strong us/aus friendship, and ask for special allowances to be made.

and in the name of that mutual friendship, qhat will aus do for the us?

well... same as last time -- we will take advantage of the us concessions and misuse them -- to our own advantage. 

it seems that the supposed us/aus friendship is very much one way.

unequal laws

Peter Garrett  calls for his audience to dance on Gina Rinehart's grave. This is an obvious threat.  A call to cause harm to Rinehart.

For this Garrett  gets a mild slap on the wrist. 

just imagine if Rinehart were Jewish. Garrett would have been charged with a serious crime : anti-Semetic hate speech.

There is legal protection for Australians who claim dual loyalties.

there is far less protection for Australians who are simply

... Australian.

new prison

why is the government planning to build a new prison? 

the only people who will stay in a WA prison are suicidal children. 

the real criminals are all out on parole so that they can commit new crimes.

AI images

Kate Emery is worried that AI image generators will "reinforce dangerous stereotypes"

Is Emery really that ignorant?

An AI generated image is, in simple terms... an average of millions of images harvested, or stolen, from the Web.

The AI uses images which seem to match the user's request.

Try a simple Google search for, innocent child. The first few dozen images will match the stereotype that so scares Emery.

That's because the stereotypes are already there -- in our Web. In our societal attitudes. -- and in theway that we label and identify the images which are available for every item on the Web.Its all in the way that we already label Web images.

Now search for Australian family. Again, Google returns the most common images. Add the word indigenous and guess what? Google returns images of families with dark skins. because that is how the existing images are labelled.
