@SamSamSidyBJJ@charise_lee No, it shows how low your priorities and expectations are! Most of those countries have higher minimum wage, better healthcare and cheaper (even free) college education.
@TopherField Thank you! I always wondered why I felt that way about Hanson, the Liberal party brainwashed me! Now I see her as the patron saint of tolerance and empathy with a mastery of economics and housing policy. Thanks again!
@MickamiousG Measures like this mean you are no longer a democracy, but an authoritarian regime where those in charge shape the voting to keep power. But is that your point?
@Donsvess Have you done any research into changes in Aussie eating habits Don? People just arenโt having as many bbqs as previous generations. And no, it is not because of immigration
@MaggieMAB@blowingtom2@OneNewsAu The Voice was disappointing but a more complex issue to explain. Hanson is not, and the centre and left seem to have learned from the US mistake of ignoring Trump in 2015/16 and are more on the front foot with ON and pushing back on social media etc. More scrutiny wont favour ON
@RachelBitecofer Rampant forms of either are bad for most in society. What is slowing social progress in the US (better healthcare fairer wages and working conditions, paid parental leave etc) is opposition from rampant capitalists ie billionaires and falsely labelling these as socialism.
@blowingtom2@OneNewsAu They are using the MAGA playbook on disinformation which is a worry. The problems for them are, compulsory voting, preferential voting ( they are trying to discredit this) and the fact that Australia doesn't have the same % of gullible, uneducated fools as the US, I hope!
@NachosMomVents@GeorgeTireBTR@GeraldoRivera Ha ha, thanks. I follow US politics so closely that I know more about whatโs happening there than here in Australia! However, seeing a rise in popularity of a right wing party here (they love Trump), so will have to refocus.
@GeorgeTireBTR@GeraldoRivera OK, we admit it. California is actually a deep red state, but Democrats cheat. In fact the US is 90% red, 95% of the world loves Donald Trump, and if there is life elsewhere in the universe, they would worship him too!
