it's not just us blakfellas that got colonised.
You aussies need to dig deep rn and break that landowner mindset. You are a child of the land.
Watch America, and be horrified. The same puppet masters are beginning to pull strings here.

If I was briefed to design a campaign that would fail while intentionally inflicting damage on blakfullas, Labor & Greens it would’ve looked exactly like Yes23
