I only wish this were true. Here in Western Australia the tyrants who have fucked us over for 8 years straight got re-elected 😡 This crime gang has caused cost of living to go through the roof, destroyed lives, careers and families while shitting all over human rights and I'm astounded by how many people bent over and got the rough end of the pineapple then asked for more! Beam me up scotty, this planet sucks! #nostrich #rant #fuckpoliticians #deathtotyrants #tspfriends #AUStrich #grownostr

We need more of this, platforms telling tyrants who try to censorship people or, punishment them for expressing their opinions, to go and get fucked. Article below from "the noticer". Gab refuses to give up data on user who offended Aussie PM The founder of free speech platform Gab has refused to hand over data about a user who allegedly made "offensive" posts about Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese. Gab CEO Andrew Torba revealed on Friday morning that the Australian government made an "emergency" data request for posts made by a Gab user about Mr Albanese late the previous night. "Apparently in Australia s474.17 Criminal Code (Commonwealth) 1995 can get you locked up for a year for offending someone on the internet," Mr Torba wrote on X. "Anyway, we told them to get bent."

Mr Torba later addressed the Telegram ban-wave and a similar spate of bans on X earlier this month in a separate post. "Our Australian users are reporting a surge in censorship from other platforms this week. These other platforms are capitulating and banning Australian citizens at the direction of the Australian government," he wrote. "Gab, as an American company, has a well-documented and public history of rejecting foreign government demands to censor speech protected by U.S. law. We refuse to bow to tyrannical and dystopian foreign regulations that infringe on free speech. "We welcome the citizens of Australia to speak freely on our platform."

— Andrew Torba (@BasedTorba) February 21, 2025 Gab and Mr Torba have consistently refused to comply with censorship demands from the Australian government, including in April last year when threatened with a $782,500 by eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant if videos of the alleged stabbing of a Sydney bishop were not removed. Ms Inman Grant also demanded Meta and X remove the videos, but in October abandoned legal action against X, which only restricted them for Australian users. In August last year Mr Torba slammed his Big Tech social media competitors for giving UK police data on anti-immigration protesters, and weeks later refused to cooperate with a German government request that Gab identify a user who "denigrated the weight" of an obese bisexual female Greens politician. So to Albo or any other petty tyrant who thinks they can control speech online, I say go fuck yourself with a rusty cheese grater you criminal pieces of shit! #grownostr #rantoftheday #austrich #freespeech #deathtotyrants #fuckpoliticians #selfownership #tspfriends

This is why I love nostr, none of that inconsistent censorship crap. #freedom #grownostr #freespeech #liberty #tspfriends #austrich #nostrich

I was talking to someone last night about government programs being inefficient, slow and wasteful. They were a bit frustrated but still deep in the matrix. I simply said "there are only 2 things that government, not matter who is in power, does efficiently and that is steal money and kill people." I was waiting for the usual rush to their defence but there was a thoughtful pause and then the realisation that aside from those two things, he couldn't think of a single efficient or effective government program! Be the reason at least one person stops trusting government every single day 😀 #grownostr #austrich #freedom #liberty #tspfriends #antigovernment #fuckpoliticians #deathtotyrants #taxationistheft #takeitback #erasethestate #endthefed #agorist #anarchist #selfownership #selfdetermination

Find that special someone who wants to put tyrants in a wood chipper as much as you do. #fuckpoliticians #dirtnapsfortyrants #tspfriends #grownostr #freedom #liberty #destroythestate #woodchipper

I'm an anarchist so feel free to call yourself whatever you want but if you're gonna start screeching at me because I didn't automatically guess your zhe/zir/zig/zag/wtf the first time while there's ACTUAL tyranny going on in the world that you're silent about or you're encouraging then be prepared for a boot in the they/thems. While thinking of what kind of planet we are leaving to our children, we also need to consider what kind of people we're leaving to the planet! #commonsense #memestr #jokestr #anarchist #freespeech #weekend #tspfriends #grownostr #nostrich #austrich

#GeorgeCatlin says Political correctness cripples discourse, creates ugly language and is generally stupid! #keepitreal #raw #truth #honesty #carlinquotes #catstr #anarchy #agorist #grownostr #AUStrich #nostrich #perthstr

#GeorgeCatlin says "Political correctness is America’s newest form of intolerance, and it is especially pernicious because it comes disguised as tolerance. It presents itself as fairness, yet attempts to restrict and control people’s language with strict codes and rigid rules. I’m not sure that’s the way to fight discrimination. I’m not sure silencing people or forcing them to alter their speech is the best method for solving problems that go much deeper than speech.” #carlinquotes #anarchy #freedom #catsofnostr #catstr #grownostr #AUStrich #nostrich

#GeorgeCatlin says "I have certain rules I live by. My first rule: I don’t believe anything the government tells me." Be like George! #carlinquotes #grownostr #anarchy #freedom #nostrich #governmentisviolence #catstr

#GeorgeCatlin says: “I don’t like ass kissers, flag wavers, or team players. I like people who buck the system. Individualists. I often warn people: Somewhere along the way, someone is going to tell you: ‘There is no I in team.’ What you should tell them is: ‘Maybe not. But there is an I in independence, individuality, and integrity.'” #freedom #independence #individual #grownostr #voluntary #integrity #wisdom #quotes #wisewords #carlinquotes #spongecat #tspfriends #nostriches #AUStriches

#GA #nostr! #wisewords from #spongecat Let this year be a year of both #purge and #growth Purge the negativity, the unnecessary, the toxic and the things that drain your #energy #Grow the #positive, the #important, the #healing and the things that #boost and #recharge you. It's not an easy #process but it's a process that applies to the #people you allow to share your #time and #space. While it may hurt to step away from some and to set #boundaries with others, in the long run it will make a huge difference to the rate at which you #improve your life. In the words of my #bestie, "we only get one ride on this merry-go-round, make the most of it". Don't waste time doing things you detest just to please others. Grow yourself and #build your #tribe. #grownostr #AUStrich #nostriches #perthstr #thoughtfortheday #wisdomofspongecat #thankyouMandy #superMand #motivation #uplifting #aimhigh #quality #recharge #mentor

#GN #NOSTR, this #austrich needs a #recharge. Make the rest of the #weekend great for yourself and for someone else whether it be a family member, a friend or a complete stranger with a random act of kindness- even if it's just a kind word or a smile 😃 #grownostr #perthstr #beexcellenttoeachother

To be honest I can't argue with that. The last 5 yrs alone have been a major downhill spiral. All the more reason to #exit the system and #build our own. Find your #tribe, find the #good people, the #loyal ones who have your back and make doubly sure that you've got theirs. #grownostr #AUStrich #exitandbuild #freedom #agorist #liberty #homestead #matrix #exitthematrix #unplug #agorist

My conundrum is, what do we put on aloe vera if it gets sunburn? 🤔🤣 Just kidding, I've been away for a week and the sprinklers didn't kick in and the sun has been a bit savage these last few days. Hope everyone's weekend is off to a good start, have a #coffee, do something #productive and do something for #yourself - even better if they're one and the same thing 😀 👍 #thoughtfortheday ##grownostr #gardening #brewstr #beanstr #growfoodnotlawns #agorist #tspfriends
