Everyone wants a piece of the Bondi massacre, it seems. I took a look at some of those factions and the things they've done in the wake of the tragedy. After the clown show, I have a chat about the conclusions I've come to.


thank you

Isn't that what Tanuki is doing here too?

I think Tanuki is referring to various players across the entire spectrum taking the Bondi tragedy to dishonestly twist the narrative and outright lie about to further their interests in political advantage, disharmony, and racist ideology.

The other aspect you might be raising -- the position of the line between news/commentary, and attention-seeking monetisation of tragedy -- is sometimes more subjective or delicate, but I feel Tanuki's commentaries are on the good side of that.
