Cheesecake as currency???
in the economy of community...
π Here's a serendipitous story for you...while we wait on TWO THINGS:
1. The video of me exposing Christian Zi0nism being made available on Y O U T U B E.
2. An announcement on how you can speak up against how our democratic rights are being eroded at alarming speed here in Australia π
Okay...so backstory is:
Late on Friday night, Melbourne City Council CANCELLED our Christian Zi0nism seminar that was happening on Sunday evening in a local library. @anti.zionism.australia had already had five previous seminars in our series there with absolutely ZERO CONCERNS.
A very vague reason was given. Cancelling at 7pm on a Friday night is genius if you don't want the event to be rescheduled.
Every venue I checked in person and online, said it was too short notice to book Sunday evening.
Next morning (Saturday) I visited Coburg Library. We held our first event for our series there...and more importantly...Merri bek council is one of the few councils in Melbourne who are not under the Zi0nist spell.
The very lovely librarian explains that unfortunately he can't help. Events are a council issue and they don't work on weekends. I explain the situation and ask if he'll at least email the council person in charge. Then it's up to them to choose to respond or not.
A few minutes later, he waves me back to the desk, and stage whispers:
DOES CHEESECAKE LADY MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU????
ππ π€£
Turns out the council lady had given me lemons from her tree and I had given her cheesecake in return.
Library dude: Cheesecake has very high currency. You're good to go for hiring the hall tomorrow!!!
β¨οΈAnd THAT is the beauty of being part of a community β¨οΈ
(And just as an aside, I expose Bob Hawke in my talk...and Merri bek council is in his former electorate)
(Which I only found out last night)π






What a wonderful story! Glad you got a new venue, thank God for Zio free zones - and cheesecake!
Iβm all for cheesecake currency! Way to go building community through being a genuinely good person! π°πβ€οΈ
