👏 I've really got to get around to listrning to her audiobook. I've had it sitting in my library for too long.
FUCKING legend
Is she gunning for a second Australian of the year award?
Australian of every year award
She got my vote.
She has nothing to lose and any attack only makes her stronger. She has a remarkable story and I don't think any the less of her because her circumstances give her the freedom to do what most others simply cannot without bringing on their own destruction.
But we should all contemplate on how starkly her freedom contrasts with every other public figure in Australia who lives in fear of what the Murdoch press would do to them. Nobody else can speak freely, not the most powerful political elites or business leaders or celebs. No PM. No Premier. They all kiss the ring. They have no choice.
I'm an American and had no idea what you were talking about so I did some research and holy shit. I didn't even know Rupert Murdoch had that kind of control. I think I'll pay more attention to global news from now on. I've been trying to but apparently not enough.
She's a loose cannon. I love it!
Fuck yeah!
