Peta Credlin nails the lies from Premier and PM that the latest floods are because we don’t have enough wind and solar. People who have lost everything, some of them three times over, are being lied to and hijacked for a political cause. From Sky News Australia.

    Joseph Goebbels- Minister for Propaganda under Hitler nail it in the following quotes:
    …the rank and file are usually much more primitive than we imagine. Propaganda must therefore always be essentially simple and repetitious.
    The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly – it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over
    Not every item of news should be published. Rather must those who control news policies endeavor to make every item of news serve a certain purpose
    This is the secret of propaganda: Those who are to be persuaded by it should be completely immersed in the ideas of the propaganda, without ever noticing that they are being immersed in it.
    If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.

    Here is a crazy idea. How about keeping the dams (Warragamba, Cateract, Coudeax, Neapean etc) at 70-80% capacity thus giving the downstream community that buffer and hopefully avoid overflow. The rains were short-lived and it is not necessary to raise the Warragamba wall, just lower the water level. It means slowly letting out the water when it’s fine weather and won’t cause issues, to reach the magic percentage.
