Just an average Aussie that values free speech. Pushing back against government censorship laws that promotes Government policy as the only source of truth.
How do I know that the climate *crisis* is a scam? Here are five reasons:
1️⃣ None of the politicians, celebrities, or “scientists” yammering about it have altered their lifestyles an inch. If they opted to forgo using O&G products, then I’d take them seriously. Actions speak louder than words.
2️⃣ Climate conferences aren’t being held virtually on Zoom using their large meeting extensions. It’s doable, they just choose not to. They like to fly overseas to lecture us about reducing our “carbon footprint” all the while they do nothing to lower their own.
3️⃣ Wealthier alarmists are still living on or buying oceanfront property. If ocean levels were really rising at a catastrophic rate (as opposed to the gradual increase that is actually occurring), then they would move inland and banks would not approve loans.
4️⃣ Alarmists rarely, if ever criticize China and India, and they always come up with all sorts of wonderful excuses as to why those nations get a free pass to continue emitting so-called “carbon pollution.”
5️⃣ The only solutions they offer involve increased governmental power. Higher taxes. EV mandates. Restrictions or bans on the energy sectors they don’t like.
And, as an added bonus, no real-world data proves, much less suggests that we are facing an “existential crisis.” Even the IPCC doesn’t use such rhetoric because it isn’t based on science.
I don’t deny that climate change exists.
It always has. And, I don’t even deny that at least some of the increase in temperatures is anthropogenic.
But I just don’t care because it isn’t that big of a deal.
Extreme weather cannot be taxed away. Our vulnerability will continue to increase so long as we build in disaster-prone areas.
Politicians cannot take our wallets and set a thermostat on the planet.

Only when looking at the peak GDP to tax ratio and the difference is 0.6% ...
Now do the comparison of Averages of GDP to tax ratio over the Terms of Howard and Albanese governments...
Howard 23.6% vrs Albanese 23.7%...
You seem to forget that people have lived experiences of both governments
We know which government failed to improve our
standard of living and to make the cost of living easier.
Howard delivered stronger productivity (2%), real wage growth (21%) with lower inflation (2.5%) and moderate immigration (150k).
Albanese has weaker productivity (-07%), higher inflation (4.5%), higher immigration(350k) and real wages fell (-4.4%) and are only now starting to recover.(0.5%)
Julia Gillard
There will be no carbon tax under a government I lead - Installs carbon tax
Anthony Albanese
There will be no changes to negative gearing or capital gains tax (50 times) - Changes neg gearing and capital gains
Can we all agree now Labor should never be in government, what a farce.
Housing supply remains in focus.
Shadow Housing Minister says Australia is building around 30,000 fewer homes per year under Labor..
Annual completions have fallen from an average of 200,000 between 2013 and 2022 to around 170,000 since 2022.
With affordability at crisis levels, the key question remains… how do we accelerate housing supply and get more homes built?
Just flood the country with new people and not think of a solution seems like the current plan.
Everything about the Left is fake.
Once you understand it, everything makes sense.
>Eat the rich... from your mansion
>Save the planet... from your private jet
>Everyone is racist... while you fund the racism.
>Billionaires are evil... unless you fund our candidates.
>Words are violence... but my violence is actually speech
>Wrong pronouns are assault... but burning a courthouse in a protest is mostly peaceful
>We love immigrants... unless you send them to Martha's Vineyard then we call ICE too
>Democracy is sacred... unless we lose, then it was stolen by Russia, misinformation, or Elon
>Diversity is our strength... unless you're a Black conservative, then you're a race traitor who needs to be destroyed
>Tax the wealthy... while your foundation, your trust, and your three LLCs are structured specifically to avoid paying a dime of it
>Capitalism is oppression... posted from an iPhone, on a platform worth a trillion dollars, while wearing merch sold through the your merch store linked in your bio
It's all fake, it's all performative and should be endlessly mocked into oblivion.
Give them zero comfort.
The doctrine is always designed so the cost lands on someone else.
The cashier pays for your protest. The suburban parents pays for your sanctuary city. The trade school kid pays for your student loan forgiveness. The taxpayer pays for your foundation's tax shelter. The working mom pays for your gas stove ban. The factory town pays for your Green New Deal. The girl on the swim team pays for your pronouns. The cop's widow pays for your bail reform.
It's a massive, evil, cost-transfer operation that pretends the evil they are pushing, is moral.
...and it's just evil
