Billionaire mindset isn’t normal
@KobieThatcher When people can’t explain housing policy, infrastructure failures or global economic shifts, they reach for culture. It’s simpler. It creates a villain. It turns nostalgia into politics. That’s not depth, it’s emotional projection dressed up as principle.
@Vicklou001@aus_pill Several thousand years before any Watson immigrants came by boat, but hey that’s beside the point . Im more Australian than someone who thinks gatekeeping nationality on the internet counts as patriotism ! Cheers 🍻
@GeoffSteph42408@au_samschriever Citizenship, not birthplace determines who has a voice in a democracy.
