It's alarmingly easy to produce false memories. You can even do it to yourself (not necessarily recommended, but can be informative to try if you're of sound mind).

I encourage you and others who have witnessed the whole thing unfold to write down all of your recollections, all of the truth, ON PAPER, and store it somewhere safe. I have done so. It doesn't matter if you aren't much of a writer - it's just important that personal accounts exist in physical form. So much of our movement has taken place online and is highly vulnerable to being erased at any time. Regardless of how this all shakes out, we don't want the only records of these five years available to our grandchildren to be the newspaper archives.

I work with someone who does this in professional emails. I don't know how I haven't lost my mind yet.

Citizens not allowed to leave the country and very few allowed back from overseas, cricket stadium only allowed to fill to 30% capacity on the biggest day of the year despite no COVID cases in the state for >8 weeks, going to the gym or out to eat requires booking ahead and giving all of your personal details for "contact tracing" (although the health department is too incompetent to actually do that), still have mask mandates. They will never give us back the freedoms they've stolen.

Can't imagine an election without struggling to unfold and read an obscenely large senate ballot.

They'd have us do that to dogs, too. Lots of leftists advocate banning private animal breeding in favour of only having "rescue pets" (I don't know where they think those animals ultimately come from).

The unlimited resources is the reason why. A land of plenty with great weather year-round means you never have to learn how to plan so you can survive a harsh winter.

We have more power to push back than they gave us credit for.

Goodness yes. I hate that I can't even make something in rainbow colours for a baby gift without it being an obligate political statement.

I'd love nothing more but pragmatically it's nigh on impossible. Good luck to us both.

I don't recall all the details myself, but I believe it originated on 4chan and was a campaign to place signs reading "Islam is right about women" in public. This was obviously traumatic for SJWs because their worldview cannot accommodate the fundamental incompatibility of their various pet factions.

More people should do this kind of thing. It breaks the SJW, similarly to "Islam is right about women".

Yeah we had give Dan the boot day in September, I think. It didn't gain much traction but I was pleasantly surprised that my boots weren't the only ones in the neighbourhood.

VIC is pretty bad, sadly. I don't know a single person my age (30) in the city who isn't completely nuts, and unchecked immigration has created a ticking time bomb. It's lonely and alienating. Rural areas are generally better so that's where I'd go, if you can find work. Lots of nice centres and the whole state is day trip-able to Melb if your family is here. Best wishes!

Yes, but they're still on the train to hell - they're just doing 80 km/h instead of 100. We need an actual economic nationalist party.

Those Harry Potter people are insufferable. If you're over 14 years old, you need to give it up and do something meaningful with your life.

He's a joy - he still has a pair of boots cable-tied to his verandah post for "give Dan the boot". I always stop for a chat when I see him in his front yard and he never disappoints. Just wish he had an unmarried son!!

You're exactly right. All my friends and family who are in unionised jobs like that vote for what the unions tell them to, which is naturally Labor. No independent thought necessary. They're screwing themselves and their children.

Good for you! I'm planning on NSW myself, have to stick out two more years though.

I never understood why clinging to Bibles and guns was supposed to be a problem.

The historic Labor voters who continue to vote Labor even though NONE of their ideals align with modern Labor are such a mystery to me. You only need to glance at any headline or TV news soundbite to realise that Labor is off the rails. Most of them would be better off pulling a Mark Latham and going One Nation - THAT'S how far Labor has gotten from its traditional base!

I live in the biggest leftist cesspool in the country and everyone hates China. The most extreme SJWs refuse to talk about it because it breaks their narrative, but they still know it.

Thank you for your service. I always say thank you when I see someone in uniform, and they always seem likewise surprised. I regret that I was dumb enough at 18 to buy into the "must go to university" spiel instead of joining the defence force and doing something more productive while I figured out what I really wanted to do with my life.

One of my neighbours flies an Australian flag. It's regularly vandalised or stolen (Melbourne 🙄) but he always puts another one up. He's an elderly Vietnamese immigrant who made a life for himself here and understands exactly how good we have it.

We're relying on it. We'll do our part, but we simply don't have enough weight to throw around to hurt China alone.

There are still a few sane people here, counting the days till we can escape. At 18 I was desperate to move to the city, a decade later I'm desperate to get away. Finding a real man here to build a life with is an impossibility.

Absolutely. People are ready for it. A nationalist party that is not a national embarrassment.
