Australia’s hypocrisy is ubiquitous on much of this
Australia has the worst record of any nation for jailing and abusing climate protestors, as one example of perhaps not throwing stones
Australia leads the world in arresting climate and environment protesters
We regually kill people in custody, yet to see any black lies matter protests in Australia becase we give few fucks.
I find the entire thing bemusing as though we aren’t sone of the worst arseholes in the world, we send people who legally arrive in Australia to internment camps off shore, were they are treated so badly they suicide. We deport “criminals” overseas Now (like the US is doing) we sieze and copy peoples computers and phones at the border, we have invasive anti privacy laws and when some other country does it we get “oh my god” here.
I read the headline as Australia was arming their journalists and I was confused by the escalation.
That would actual be pretty funny to start with. Rubber bullet stand offs between journos and the American brown shirts. You know, before USA starts “accidentally” hitting journos with $3.5 million dollar missiles a la Israel style.
Then Kelloggs releases a new porridge filled with red dye called “Oops! All journalists!” and taco serves it to foreign ambassadors in what would be a terrifying gesture if he didn’t spend the entire meal dancing on the table with those geriatric “I want to move but not fall over” dance moves.
Whether you like it or not, I had a lot of fun writing this absolute bullshit XD
Isn’t Australian society very similar to American conservative crap?
Yes, alas pretty much
They are. In fact, we can thank America’s largest spewer of hate (fox) on one of their homegrown assholes, Rupert Murdoch.
Hey now, he might have been born here, but he’s not our arsehole. And he hasn’t been for 40 years.
He doesn’t even have Australian citizenship, does he?
Yeah exactly. He chose to get rid of it 40 years ago this year.
Only because he forfeited it.
I mean yeah, that’s what I was getting at. He can’t even live here, he’s not our problem anymore.
Not nearly to the same extent as America, but in general, yes. Same direction, just less extreme.
We also voted against the Trump crap last election, I’d imagine if America had preferential and mandatory voting they would have too
No, Australia is already outright owned by plutocratic mining corperations. In the US they have to go through all the lobbying and buying millions of trumpcoin.
Riiiight, Australia is the one that’s outright owned by lobbyists, and America is a bastion of free speech. Yeah, alright mate.

Unlike the MAGA movement, most of Australia’s right wing are neither Vatnik, nor Fascist. I mean, there are those as well, like Clive Palmer, but he is a spam pest and a joke - most people think he is ridiculous. So no.
No.
…by entering into a data center agreement with America!
