The Deafening Silence

 

This graphic is from Facebook. I am disgusted by Australia's misogynistic culture and tacit acceptance of mens' violence against women. I'll let the comments do the talking:

'15 people were murdered at Bondi. The LNP weaponises an horrendous occurrence for political gain. Between 58 and 74 women were murdered in Australia in 2025 and deafening silence'.


'A young, white, straight man was "king hit" in Kings Cross - outrage, much media coverage and law changes.

The terminology changed overnight to "coward punch" and lock-out laws were introduced.

Women get killed, a brief snippet in the news, if you're lucky and it's crickets from the politicians and nothing changes.

This should've been introduced into the recent hate speech legislation. It starts with verbal abuse (hate speech) and escalates to violence and femicide'.


If it was a shark attack, there would be calls for a cull, for emergency procedures to stop the killing......sadly, was not sharks, it was people, female victims sadly.'
