At last! A good assessment of the risks to Australia (and elsewhere) of the possible re-election of Mr. Trump

As the post title puts it:   “At last! A good assessment of the risks to Australia (and elsewhere) of the possible re-election of Mr. Trump”. See: 

“Trump and Vance’s misogyny and cynical identity politics mean Australians can’t ‘just chill’ about the US election”   https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/commentisfree/article/2024/aug/02/australia-us-election-donald-trump-jd-vance-misogyny-identity-politics-ntwnfb   “The most alarming thing for me, a world away, about the re-emergence of Trump (twice impeached, 34 felony convictions) and the upwardly-managing Vance is the global licence they give others to ape, voice and enact their misogyny.   ...   I could go on about how Trump’s general playbook and cynical identity politics has already influenced and enabled elements of Australian leadership (as it has elsewhere in the world) from the tenor of civic debate to renewables (“drill baby drill”), emissions targets and a range of social issues. But it is the Trump/Vance attitude – their words and actions regarding women, gender, families, race and society – that makes the forthcoming presidential election the most consequential for the rest of my life.”

Note that, as with my main blog [see here], I am cutting back on aspects of my posts.

Remember: we need to be more human being rather than human doing, and all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering”.
