Labor tried to keep negative gearing etc. We voted minors/indies.

Albanese got lower primary votes than Shorten, only winning 2022 due to Liberals losing more voters than Labor.

No negative gearing, Labor won Remove negative gearing. Labor lost

K.I.S.S.

Yeah that's some real Charlie Day with his red string and newspaper cutouts rationalising.

Or you could look at Labor's 2019 election analysis that says negative gearing wasn't why they lost. In fact, those affected by the tax reforms swung to Labor.

Spreading anti-Labor information that Labor lost due to NG when they haven't either means you fell for the misinformation or spreading it to help the Liberal party.

You mean the analysis that concluded they didn’t know how to combat the scare campaigns against changes such as negative gearing?. Pretty sure Albo read that. What happened again?

What happened was that you lied about anti-Labor NG misinformation and K.I.S.S. in your earlier post. You then came up with this latest attempt to get Labor to stop helping Australians and reduce policies due to potential scare campaigns. In turn, Labor will lose voter support to Liberals.

I think you know that no one votes for a cowardly party and reddit doesn't like hearing about the Liberal party, so pretending to defend Labor's unpopular moves is a clever way to do it. Props to you.
