      Writers Week is dead. Will the Festival survive?
      “The focus is now on ensuring a successful Adelaide Festival …”

      A psychologist would have a field day analysing Malinauskas’ performance. It’s DOCTOR Abdel-Fattah, Peter.

      Does associating with Zionists rot the brain?

        My lawyer has served a second concerns notice for defamation on South Australia's Premier Peter Malinauskas in relation to false claims he made about me in a radio interview last week. Rather than reflect on the harm he has caused me, he has doubled down leaving me no choice but to see this through until justice is served. @randaafattah

        If this dude keeps going they’ll end up cancelling Adelaide entirely, not just the festival.

                  In 1930s Germany, the Nazis consolidated power by “Gleichschaltung”: ensuring that the public’s perception of reality did not conflict with Nazi ideology.

                    David Milner @DaveMilbo Imagine a political ideology so evil, so despised, so racist and murderous, so globally unpopular - but also so entrenched in Western establishment depravity - that your government (with the opposition), would seek to make criticism and protest of it illegal. Imagine that. 8:48 AM · Jan 15, 2026 · 3,953 Views

      @DropBear I also feel sorry for all the people looking forward to going to the #AdelaideFestival. It looked like a great and diverse line-up. Then they tanked it all over some made up “offence”. 😡

        Many will be disappointed @jillL Plans will be disrupted. Authors will suffer financially. During Writers Week, many books are sold.
