Less haste, more verification and independent calling out of lies would be a good starting point.

Just calling out lies in general would be nice.

Also this fake balance shit is getting old.

Its like heres the scientific fact, backed by studies / proof / logic with results that can be replicated..... BUT IN THE INTERESTS OF BALANCE, here's some utter nutjub who believes god is a sock.

Alternatively, here's Dutton who used insider trading and ??? methods ??? to achieve a portfolio in the triple digits of millions on a cops salary.... BUT MEANWHILE ALBO BOUGHT A MANSION for $4m! FOUR WHOLE MILLION! The leader of the country! FOUR million! Its like he's just rubbing our noses in it! Unlike Dutton who's hard work and sacrifice is clearly the reason behind his huge gains in self wealth.
