To vaccinate or not to vaccinate? This is a question facing Australians families today, with many unable to seek open dialogue and information on the issue due to media propaganda, coercive legalities, social stigmas and increased penalties issued by authorities to those who advocate for freedom of choice.

On the latest episode of the General Knowledge Podcast, General Maddox and Andy from Real News Australia are joined by pro-choice activist, Allona Lahn, and expectant father Joel, as they discuss the vaccination conundrum that all new parents are now facing in society today.

The mass media influences collective perception of society in a variety of ways, including the extent to which the content is appealing, the degree to which information channels are accessible and desirable, and the amount of social conflict and diversity there is in a community.

Since the beginning of the communications industry, the mainstream establishment has used this scope of influence as a primary driving factor to distort reality and replace it with a simulated representation – all developed and controlled by a small group of organisations and families.

The mainstream media has become a consolidated, corporate behemoth, which continues to promote an increasingly authoritarian perception of reality to the Australian people, whilst disguising the true agenda of a structured, multi-tentacle propaganda machine.

In the final installment of our series, we take a look at the history and agenda of the industry, including the development of mass communication, media moguls and personalities behind the scenes, regulations on information and simulated created reality.

Thousands of Yellow Vests supporters have staged unified protests across Australia today, delivering messages of resistance to an establishment that has become increasingly monopolized by an oligarchy acting against Australian interests.

Organised by the Australian Yellow Vests Alliance, in conjunction with local groups in many states, the events mark the beginning of a series of ongoing demonstrations to be held demanding systemic change in Australian society.

After almost 10 weeks of demonstrations, the Yellow Vests Movement continues to protest in large numbers for systemic change across Europe, with many other countries joining France since opposition to new world globalization commenced.

This weekend, national events have been scheduled across Australia in solidarity with the overseas movement, as many groups unite to identify a variety of key issues that increasingly relate to affairs in this country.

Federal and state governments have both passed successive legislative amendments in recent years that threaten fundamental rights to protests and freedom of speech in Australia.

The latest installment, amendments to the Crown Land Management Act in Victoria, have been described as “a fundamental attack on democracy”, leaving many experts calling for an audit of increasing draconian measures introduced in the last decade.

Australia’s controversial My Health Record program has once again come under scrutiny after it has been revealed data breaches of the system have increased in the last 12 months.

Over a 24 month period, My Health Record documents have revealed 77 data breaches reported to the Australian Information Commissioner, including 42 new breaches recorded since Australians began being automatically enrolled into the system last year.

The Australian government has passed health insurance reform laws that end public and private health cover for a wide range of natural therapies, such as Herbalism, Yoga, Homeopathy, Naturopathy and more.

From April 1st 2019, the government will no longer subsidise for a range of natural treatments, and health insurers will no longer be able to provide cover for “non-permitted therapies”, despite them accounting for less than 1% of all benefits paid.
