What is Fascism and Where does it Come From?

Fascism prospered from a paralysis of the state’s capacity for dispatching its key organizing functions, whether in the economy or for the larger tasks of keeping cohesion in society. At the worst points of the crisis, that paralysis encompassed the entire institutional machinery of politics, including the parliamentary and party-political frameworks of representation.

COSTARD. The head. I'll smite your costard; I'll give you a knock on the head.

    Great science, uncomfortable history: Sir Gustav Nossal and the long tail of eugenics

    Dhoombak Goobgoowana has revealed the extensive influence of Nazi apologists, racists and massacre perpetrators in the history of the university – not referring to Nossal. It outlines how eugenic ideas about white superiority denigrated First Nations people, as well as non-white immigrants.

    It’s good to be clean, but societies have taken all sorts of different routes to cleanliness over the years. From elaborate public baths to private bathrooms, from relaxing soaks to unpleasant exfoliation, let’s look at the long history of the bath.

    This is a headline from 10 years ago.

    “UN condemns Israeli attack on sleeping children”.

    Ten years ago, Israel slaughtered over 2,200 Palestinians in Gaza, including more than 500 children.

    10 years ago.

    Don’t let Israel gaslight you into thinking this began on October 7th.
