    Honestly I’d say Australia’s in the best spot it’s been in 20 years. Our right wing is so utterly destroyed that I can’t see them winning the next 2 elections still (and boomers are dying off so who knows if they’ll even survive long term). Sure the current party are centre-right wing, but they’re not as far right as the Dems are.

    It feels like we got our weird right wing phase out of the way before the rest of the world had even started, Europe’s looking at Nazis in government and the US has Trump. Immigration fear-mongering was done back in the 2000s and no one really gives a shit about that topic any more because all the doom and gloom never came. They tried copying the seppo anti-woke stuff and it just didn’t hit with the intended audience here either.

    But yeah I honestly wouldn’t want rich Americans coming over, kinda seen what you lot have done to your own country.
