    Everyone should know the terror of the usa.

    This is what they’ve always been, whether it’s a charismatic or bumbling killer on their throne.

    The world should unite against their barbarism.

    Play it live on every channel, every screen in the country. Put it on repeat. Show it on street corners and in pubs. Show it in primary schools and high schools. Everyone should see what we’re endorsing by being a US client state. Let those who want to revel in their inhumanity go over every sick detail with glee.

      Yep. Show the homeless. Show the millions in penal servitude. Show the working poor. Show the communities racked by drugs and violence. Show the school massacres. Show the executions. Show the lynchings. Show the Epstein files. Even most Americans don’t know the truth of their country.

    There are already 82837463829 execution videos available online. If it’s even going to be broadcast, and with no protection or authentication (doubt), just don’t watch it. And don’t give us that bullshit “protect the kids” answer. How effective was the social media ban? 7% of kids actually blocked going by the last report?

    Eh? Why would we have it ‘live streamed’ anyway?

    Besides that; All of our FTA tv channels will blur anything remotely confronting as a matter of course.

    You tube is where you’ll get your jollies. And the Australian government can’t/won’t censor that…

      The Australian government was able to remove access to social media for under 16’s to ‘protect them’, so why aren’t they able to remove access to live streamed murder?

        able to remove access

        No they weren’t, they just said they could. Any kid who wants to access it, especially the worst bits, still can

          This is hopefully a 1 time ‘event’, blocking access to this would have an immediate effect, the issue would be that once this is online, there will be multiple ways in future to view it, and sick f*cks who wish to do so.

          A decent government would still oppose this, and would attempt to block access to it.

            Definitely, no argument here and the government should be clear on it.

            This is a fucking disgrace. I’m not surprised though.

          Remove access is not the same as remove content

          Being a pedant is not the same as making a valid point.

            Hmmm… You know what, I don’t actually know the technical means by which a government blocks something.

            Do they have to contact the Internet Asigned Numbers Authority or something? Or is it done via contacting the major ISPs? Or some Australian exit point?

              No idea, I was surprised that they were able to get social media to comply with their censoring the young from information bs, since Australia is such a small market.

              “Livestreaming US execution would breach prohibition of torture, UN rights office warns” https://news.un.org/en/story/2026/10/1168565

              Every nation should be doing whatever they can to block access to this, and should also be opposing the usa’s choice to be even sicker f*cks than they normally are.

                The Social Media ban was apparently funded by Murdoch, because social media sites aggregate news and steal clicks from him, and so he wants to limit their reach.

                That plus I imagine we’re a signatory to international courts, so could technically sue Facebook and what not. That plus Murdoch funding = massive change.

                …and Murdoch went easy on Labor come election time in exchange. So it was feasible for all involved. Unfortunately.

      They were able to geoblock the 2024 attempted stabbing of the orthodox protest, but I don’t think they were able to get it taken down. Pretty sure that the Christchurch massacre was taken down though

        Both were after the fact though. Which I am sure they will have the court orders ready to go. But the livestream is another story.

        Either way. It will be interesting to see what happens.
