They were a product of the lnp government whose whole selling point is essentially “we’re bringing down your taxes”. You can see it for example in how they always campaign around the narrative that Labor are coming for your money. Death taxes - the Bill Australia can’t afford etc. That and ‘stop the boats’. It’s very effective I guess, who doesn’t want to pay less taxes? Most people don’t really understand the complexities of why paying tax is good for economic equity and how we all benefit from properly funded services.
Get vaxed, wear a mask in crowded spaces, if you have symptoms do a test and isolate if you can if positive. Just because these things aren’t mandatory anymore doesn’t mean they’re not helpful in preventing the spread of disease. And not just covid either.

I mean does it even matter when this shit was always going to go ahead anyways. I feel like they could have over estimated and the government would still be like all good mate.
Really glad Germany has criminalised nazi symbols. I’m curious to see how this plays out in this situation. My country is in the early stages of banning nazi symbols and people keep coming up with the same shitty takes like “but I like it when nazis let me know who they are” and “why do we need to ban shit, people just shouldn’t be nazis”.
