I never paid attention to the newspapers, so I don’t know if it’s always like this.
All defending maximum murder or suffering (through genocide or global warming). What the hell is wrong with this country?
If these are the sources of information of a population it’s not hard to imagine the result. I am really hoping it’s just the rich playing with their toys (the newspapers) the way they like, but that it is not really effective in brainwashing the population. That they question what is fed to them.
Anyway, I just thought it amazing and to share my depression with more people. Maybe that’s just every day news and nothing unusual. I imagine it’s probably all owned by the same zionist or super villain or something.
Since the image can’t be read, the one on the left says that if Australia doesn’t support the international court on netanyahuhaha the country becomes terrorist. The second is the typical “people are not supporting my genocide, I’m being holocausted”. The third is asking for harsher punishment for those “fools” destroying the economy and wasting people’s time with imaginary environment issues that could lead to human extinction.
edit. I posted to lemmy.world by mistake. Lemmy is so confusing... edit2. Is the image showing? It didn't show the first try.
this will be news to the majority of Australians*
Company taxes paid reached a new record high of $26.5 billion and royalties also reached a high of $16.7 billion in 2020-21, contributing significantly to federal, state and territory governments at a time when they needed it most during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The record company and royalties payments are highlighted in an Ernst & Young report commissioned by the Minerals Council of Australia, which also shows that in the last decade (between 2011-12 and 2020-21), the mining industry contributed $254 billion in company taxes and royalties ($142 billion and $112 billion respectively).
The industry in Australia continues to pay the highest average wages, the most company taxes, delivers the most export revenue and is critical to supporting regions and communities – supporting 1.1 million jobs in the mining industry and its supply chains.

I cannot believe you would be silly enough to say mining doesn't contribute to the Australian economy
