        If Dutton gets in I’m moving somewhere nicer like Romania. Dutton will absolutely fuck this country into anything beyond America ever dreamed for themselves.

        And the worst part is we, as a populace, will buy into the mining industry captured press and vote him in enthusiastically.

        There’s a large part of me that wonders how bad the world will have to get before people stop voting against their best interests, and a more cynical part that acknowledges that we probably won’t.

      The entire world has been long overdue to decouple from US. I only hope is that Trump will indirectly bring this about without it spirally into another “world war”.
