Show Description
The Socialist Alternative front group Uni Students for Climate Justice organised nationwide protests demanding that Prime Minister Scott Morrison be sacked and government fund all of the bushfire recovery effect. The Versace Cowboy was at the Melbourne protest and provided a video update live from the ground.
The Melbourne organiser of Uni Students for Climate Justice rally was long-time socialist campaigner Anneke Demanuele. David the Young Conservative had an encounter with Anneke when he visited Melbourne University in 2018 in an It’s Okay to be White shirt. He joins us via Skype to discuss how the backlash to this video led to the mass reporting and deletion of his Facebook page.
Much fake news and images have been shared on social media to either promote government conspiracies or the climate change agenda, I go through BuzzFeed’s comprehensive fake news guide about the bushfire coverage.
For the final segment of the show, the new Deputy Editor of the Unshackled Martin Hartwig joins me to discuss how we as an alt-media outlet have covered the bushfire disaster and what it has been like sifting through all of the misinformation to get to the facts.
