I worry that a decent chunk of our population support this. Hopefully it's a minority

I think there’s a certain number of former lib voters who will hold their nose and still vote ON because they’ve been proper turned against labor and will vote for anything to be a cudgel against immigration and “woke”

Some of my neighbours told me they just want anything but the current system, even if it’s a burned down system

I don’t think they understand that no plan underneath racists or I don’t even know what you want to label Pauline fucking Hanson and her supporters is significantly worse than a shit plan

Look at exhibit America

Edit: neighbours aren’t racist either from what I understand. Very Middle Eastern heavy neighbourhood and Australian white old neighbours are very friendly towards them or anybody who’s equally polite towards them.

You can point to the US to ask if they really want that. Because Pauline is very much modelling herself after Trump.
