You guys are walking the line of being prisoners. I was in NSW a couple years ago, beautiful country. Too bad its run by nutobs. After seeing the shit during COVID when the thought police were showing up at peoples houses for Facebook posts, I felt for you guys bad!
Govt’s are always corrupt, but when it makes it down to the police at that 1984 level, that’s when its time to pack the bags! Might as well be in China at that point.
Spot on. My wife and I are actually making plans to move overseas. I’m ready to get out of here, but she wants to wait until the next federal election to get a guage on where things will be heading. In the meantime, we’re saving as much money as we possibly can, because Australia isn’t the country it used to be, and it’s clear that we’re both deeply-incompatible with the general culture of apathy, government trust, and rules, rules, rules. It’s suffocating.
Exactly. The government isn’t your friend. To your government you’re a cog in the machine and nothing more - misbehave and they’ll rip you out and replace you with another
I’ve found its very common for Europeans to be under the dillusion that the govt is their friend, and has their best intentions in mind…
Australia too. I’ll never understand it, and I live here.
Definitely Australians. We’re the most apathetic country in the world. Love to be controlled. Love being told what we can’t do. I’m not even joking
