Despite widespread dissatisfaction with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s performance, the Labor Party is likely to win re-election in Australia due to political backlash against Donald Trump’s policies.
If anyone is stupid enough to vote libs (or even worse, clive), honestly, it’s an indication we need to spend more on education.
Even the crappiest Independents are more likely to be better.
Also, make sure you show up to vote with a list of who you want to vote for. There are a lot of shit parties out there with misleading names
it’s an indication we need to spend more on education.
Or, rather, better education. I obviously can’t speak for everyone’s schooling experience but most people I’ve talked to all had a pretty sterile one, where the most political thing you’d hear is a teacher subtly saying Whitlam was great for arts and education. Yes, there’s a trip to Canberra and a bit about how the electoral system works, but that’s extremely neutral for obvious reasons.
Now, political and religious neutrality in schools has its benefits (look to some places in the US where some regions are biased so hard they’re outright lying) but at the same time, we don’t learn about important history. Honestly, as interesting as it is, substitute out ancient history for our country’s own history, including post-WWII history.
I’ve been waiting for Musk to wade in with a few billion to support the Trumpettes of Idiots or some other cooker party…
I think after the most recent fiasco he’s realised that he is deeply unpopular.
I don’t know what difference that makes. That’s what the money’s for, buying media propaganda.
I don’t like any of the cunts, but future made in Australia policy is a great idea, that is spearheaded by labour so we can’t let the liberals come in and pull it apart in favour of digging more dirt outta the ground
I’m an American who joined this community to get a finger on Australia’s pulse because it’s my first choice for places to run if the coup here succeeds. For the love of anything you may hold holy, do not vote for anyone who shares Trump’s stances or attitude. If it can happen in my home, it can happen almost anywhere.
