“We have lost perspective,” Zoe Daniel says, denouncing the hate speech pervading the Voice.
And she’s right. Even a quick glance at the CPAC event, at Michaelia Cash's tirade at the No launch, relays fearmongering & division. It's pure, petty politics for the LNP #QandA #auspol

This black X logo is so unappealing. When I click on it I feel like I’ll be entering some right wing app for Republican men, some weird s@x club, or a vague financial ponzi start-up. It does not feel like an inviting community app. Nice work Elon. – at Melbourne, Victoria
