To feed your conversation you need to feed your mind. Social media is the death of evidence-based, nuanced debate. It's idiot central where everyone has an opinion and thinks they're entitled to it. POTUS is a shining example.
Here is some brain food to get you going:
New Matilda has some of the best analysis in Australia.
Al Jazeera reports without the militarised hyperbole.
SBS has the best of multicultural Australia - RSS feed below
And the ABC - still the most trusted news source in Australia, no matter what the mean spirited right wing say. Don't let those bastards dismantle proper scrutiny of politics.
Inkl is curated news from world wide sources, well worth the $15 a month. No advertising, no bullshit.
