This first look at The Bug's tweets of the past week will concentrate on the entirely expected and totally confected mainstream mediocre outrage over Labor's possible changes to superannuation tax breaks and how that issue has filled the void left by the MSM largely ignoring the Robodebt royal commission.
On that latter matter first, our judges saluted joan kunze (above and below) for her excellent summary of how the ABC and Newscorpse would have covered the Robodebt RC had it been a Labor scandal. Joan adds "et al" to her list of villains and we'll assume she means, among others, Nine Entertainment Co. - aka Newscorpse Lite - and its Herald mastheads and radio shockjocks.
joan, of course, is spot on. If the shocking revelations of sociopathic ministerial incompetence/indifference to people's suffering and the shameful performance of equally incompetent public service top-level brownnosers with woeful memories had happened under Labor's watch, The Daily Telegraph in particular would have been printing special afternoon editions. True, Ben English?
PaulHeywood, etc, combined both the super brouhaha and the RobodebtRC to have a nice little dig at the ABC's Insiders program...
as did Glenn Gibson.
... and one our Twitter family favourites MFW pressed joan closely for tweet of the week.
We now move onto the superannuation stoush that the mainstream mediocre is finding amazingly relevant and important, seeing as they appear to be in almost unanimous agreement that it's the beginning of the end for Albanese's mob.
Take it away, amante2, who also roped Robodebt into her observations, and someone by the name of Sally McManus who also seemed to know what she was talking about.
Nothing sums up a Twitterer's anger better than the use of CAPS as Barrie Carter employed here...
WE THINK YOU ARE FUCKINGLY WELL SPOT ON, BARRIE!
Dan praised the PM and the Treasurer for just hinting that they might break an election promise and tinker with super tax breaks...
... while Finnigans, TOM RED and Rob White referenced the roles Peter Costello and John Howard played in creating the superannuation mess Labor might now have the guts to clean up ... a little bit at least.
Dazza used the GST to also have a dig at the mainstream mediocre over its faux super outrage.
Tomorrow, we'll run the week's tweets on other matters but to send us off on a brighter note after the depressing topics covered above, let's finish off with a meme from DameFreeradicalone2u. We think it's been used before but it works very well with Sussssann "this goes with this goes with this goes with this" Ley, don't you think?
