This whole country is frothing at the mouth to make sure as many kids are born as possible so they can proceed to neglect them and throw them in jail when they understandably lose it.
I fucking hate this shithole. I know it’s not the peoples fault they are bombarded by fear and propaganda, but at the same time I find it hard to relate to a society that hates their own children. I feel surrounded by monsters. 
Oh, also voting is mandatory here. So all those libs thinking anti-electoralism is your biggest hurdle to winning? Yeah, no. Your biggest hurdle is your own parties total refusal to stand up to the far-right and deliver on any promises. Failure to oppose imperialism. Your support of capitalism. Your funding of far-right proxy wars. Failure to present any real counter argument. Your support of private companies and insipid courting of right-wing voters that will never respect you. And most of all your hatred of the left and refusal to work with them and your insistence on compromising with capitalism.
You are pathetic and the only one to blame for people like Trump is yourself, not “Tankies”
I’m a Queenslander and the number of people I heard saying “We’ve had the Labor party for a decade now, I’m voting the LNP to give them a turn” - fucking idiots who can’t take 5 minutes out of their day to check what a parties policies are is crazy, we live in a world where the sum of information is in your pocket. It makes a great case for abolishing our compulsory voting laws, when people can’t engage.
Not only lament the erosion of rights under the conservatives, but the loss of all the green energy projects the previous government had in the the pipeline, as well as these new fuckwits cutting the tax on resources and mining that their overlords wanted. With the resource tax gone they’ll be in debt inside a year (which they’ll blame on the outgoing gov) and we’ll be back to job cuts and austerity just like the last time these people of reduced governing capability were in power here.
