If Dutton gets in he'll send trump everything we've got. Let's not let that happen. Australia is already a soft oligarchy. We need to reign it in.

I'm happy to do the opposite of anything Dutton wants to do

The oligarchy owns 90% of social media so it's no surprise

Geniuses like musk don't have time to wallow in such absurdity /s

I hope when he croaks it's incredibly drawn out, painful and very very embarrassing

Lol. His IQ is definitely not 145. I work with doctors and none of them, even those obviously on the spectrum exhibit completely different behaviours.

It's a small test base I know but this dude is literally just an investor that had a fantastic PR team and now the mask is off its clear that he's just a rich kid with a hard on for world domination and control over individuals

If you guys haven't started rioting by now then I lack any empathy for you with what comes next.

As an Australian I now understand the contempt of the middle east for America.

Slap on a nice fine then send her back to MAGAland

Gonna sit back in mein kampfy chair and give it a watch and review

We do it's just more "boutique"

There are still people making clothes but they usually only do small orders. There are still people making doors and windows, greengrocers and butchers still exist. It is a little more pricey but if we all shifted to locally made and owned then a lot of necessary manufacturing would move back to Australia.

They can continue making the garbage I don't need and don't buy overseas.

If we invested in better city connections (bullet trains, express country trains) and invested in industry moving away from large population centers then more land would open up in regional areas.

The only reasons I live so close to Melbourne is because there's no viable way for me to travel here and I make better money working here.

If I could make similar money or travel quickly to the city as tradesperson in some dusty regional town I'd be there in a heartbeat
