I thought suggesting that this is what I think might happen was implying, sorry if that's not correct. I honestly thought that while bleak it was a realistic possibility, not some horrible exaggeration.

Edit: I'm sorry if anything I say ever comes off combative or anything, it's never my intention but words in my brain don't always come out of my hands unscathed.

I'm helping!



In Canada there was a horrific murder on a Greyhound bus in 2008. The murderer was schizophrenic and couldn't understand right and wrong. He got treatment for his mental health, deeply regrets the murder and wants to make sure he stays in treatment so he never has delusions again, and now he is a free man. Schizophrenia is something we are able to treat consistently, and I think this was a just way to handle the situation. I don't know what you do about a person who one day decides to kill as many people as possible because he hates society, but that's a tiny subset of the people in prisons today.

Buddy pal person, people have been vitriolic over something as simple as the accent, that kind of rabid hatred can't be from anything easy to notice. Best I can think of is the racism but they're not original in that regard.

Is it because they're racist? Because if that's the criteria needed to be destroyed then the planet should probably end up looking like the moon if everyone got what they deserved. It sounds like they've done just about the same horrible poo poo everyone's done. Only with a silly accent and fewer child shootings.

gotta have my purp
Australia is light on domestic mass shootings at the moment due to market conditions, but like all the anglo settler colonial states their mass shooter export potential is huge. So far they're only really well known in New Zealand and Afghanistan these days, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them expanding into more markets soon. The competition will be fierce.

there’s a big difference between racism of the world and racism that leads to genocide and imperialism the likes of which could only be compared to the other settler nations of Israel america and Canada. and unlike the other three nations actually almost finished their genocide plans which is why they act all cheery and post racial as a society

the white Australia policy didn’t even stop until 1973, Australia is the vanguard of white supremacy and there’s a reason why they tried convincing thatcher to save Rhodesia until the very end

to sum it up Australia is like Canada where it hides a lot of brutality by smart PR and fake culture that was created in the last 30 years so the drunk settlers that consist of these nations never stop and think about how they got there.

Australia is the only non European country that still has** a 90% white ethnic background. You gotta go way beyond what ‘everyone else was up to’ and shift the ‘criteria needed for racism’ to about nazi levels to match what Canberra was putting out the last 200 years

I'll never be able to sneak onto a jury because I'm a nullifier, but I especially will never be able to do it because I also believe that if your crime is really impressive you shouldn't go to jail.

like, this almost 70 year old man shot and dismembered four young, big-looking dudes? badass. slap him with a fine for dumping in the river at max.
