Yeah, I wouldn’t move here permanently. Both ruling parties will 100% have a policy of austerity and privatisation in the future, (as they have done for decades, but this time it’s to tackle “the deficit”) and like you said we’ll be dealing with 50° summers peppered with choking on bushfire smoke.
Add to that the blatant racism baked into Australian society which will only get worse in the next few decades and the growing police and surveillance state, you’ll have a perfect recipe for USA II.
“I see the ground is the symbol for the poor people; the poor people is gonna open up this whole world and swallow up the rich people, ’cause the rich people gonna be so fat, they gonna be so appetizing, you know what I’m saying, wealthy, appetizing. The poor gonna be so poor and hungry, you know what I’m saying? It’s gonna be like — there might be some cannibalism out this mother. They might eat the rich.”
Cool dude.
I might have a job lined up in a nightclub! It’ll probably destroy me but hey it’s work.
My brain has actual been melting seeing the mainstream Australian media kick up a fuss about this image. The focus has been completely shifted from the fact that Australian soldiers murdered 39 civilians to the usual red scare bullshit.
Fucks me off I swear to Christ.
Still weirding me the fuck out how little coverage the India strike is getting. Like it’s obvious why it’s barely even being mentioned in the media but god it’s so blatant.
The only way I can be confident in group conversations with people I don’t know well is with alcohol :agony:
What happens to the US in January with the eviction crisis? If nearly 10% of the population are facing homelessness (or barely even substandard housing) and nothing is done to aid I don’t see anything but a complete collapse.
Went job searching around the different bars and pubs in my city today. Barely got anything out of it. Why is it so fuckin hard to find a minimum wage job?
