A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules

Follow the aussie.zone rules
We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
News posts must include some body text explaining how the article is particularly relevant to the Australian perspective, rather than mere global news.
Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

...Fossil fuel interests have funded all the anti-trans hysteria in the US for this exact reason. They don't have to win the argument on climate if they can just angertainment.

I didn't know there was certainty around the funding for this attack campaign against our trans minorities.

Does anyone have anymore information backing this claim he makes about fossil fuel interests funding it?

Okay, nevermind found the article. After I posted this, I remembered we have these funny things called search engines... because I'm an idiot.

I'll leave it up for people interested.
