We’ve done it, we got rid of another soulless right wing politician!

Peter Dutton first made his party lose this election and now also lost his own seat much like Pierre Pullover

We’ve still got a government that green-lit new coal power plants in it’s last term, screwed over the Aboriginal community with a poorly run referendum, and still doesn’t give a shit about climate change, but baby steps hey.

    Hopefully more like Cold War II. And honestly, Australia’s in a pickle there - most other democracies are pretty damn far away from it. They might try to do the Finland thing instead.

        The way you phrased that makes it sound like there’s something I should personally do to make sure an inevitable conflict stays cold. If you have an idea, I’m all ears.

        Anyway, hopefully Canada will open up asylum to Americans soon, in case things get really bad.

          I really hope they do, but I feel like nobody is going to take American refugees until mass atrocities are well underway
