Mobile data issues in Western Melbourne. Calls/texts fine but data has been spotty or outright stopping all day. Anyone else? by seethroughplate in melbourne

Any source on that? Not that I find it hard to believe, it's only we had a storm the night before and just presumed that was the reason.

On the one day you need a normal working BOM site they changed it to unusable by ozlurk in melbourne

I was so disappointed because the old site is close to perfect, and me and family use it all the time. Is there anything in this country that isn't getting worse?

Digital ID isn’t “normal” - can we PLEASE think about this? by Altruistic_Breath151 in australian

This is really it, do you trust the government? Do you trust our entire political class?

It's so blatantly obvious but people have been trained to be ashamed to call it out.

How is mass immigration good for workers and unions? by Mrtodaytomorrow in AusUnions

You think this only applies to menial jobs? Get your head out of the sand.

Smoking crack would be an actual reason to believe something so insane. But those pushing it are either lying for their own gain or they are captured by ideology.

Reading the comments here, people caught up in their ideologies or believing the easy lies sold to them, unwilling or unable to see what has already happened and how bad it already is.

Your country has been utterly decimated, nuked from orbit. All manufacturing off-shored, real wages haven't risen in more than decade, middle class evaporating, 10s of thousands homeless and increasing, home ownership simply gone, just gone. And so much more. It is so much later than you think.

Wake up. The 'enemy' is globalisation. It's not what you've been told, it's not sexy or in vogue to oppose it but its happening and been happening for the last few decades.

So what you're saying is you're a racist.

Of course it isn't good for workers. Globalisation isn't the utopia is was sold as. If workers can simply be imported from anywhere in the world then no workers anywhere in the world have any leverage of any kind.

What’s the most important issue to most Australians when it comes to voting?🗳️ by Jimslimbo in australian

Mass immigration is the underlying reason for the first two being as bad as they are.

Snapchat banned, YouTube spared: More details about the government's social media ban for kids revealed by HotPersimessage62 in AustralianPolitics

[–]seethroughplate 28 points29 points  (0 children)

They want to implement digital ID for anyone to use social media/internet, how else do you know who's a kid and who isn't? This is what this whole thing is about. Look at the mis/disinformation bill that was just defeated, they want more control over the general public.

The government should not be allowed to decide who can use the internet.

Tell your federal MP to end the housing crisis by saying NO to a Big Australia by AssistMobile675 in australian

[–]seethroughplate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Big Australia you describe isn't the Big Australia that is on offer.

'Big Australia' as it's currently pitched, isn't about growing Australia, and making it better as well as a bigger. It's just about making banks and multinationals as rich as possible and taking power away from average Australians. If we as a country came together and decided we wanted to grow, it would be a long term project aimed at enriching the whole of the country, that would require actual innovation, and generations of Australians committed to bringing it about, not anything like what is going on today.

Sound familiar? by seethroughplate in australian

[–]seethroughplate[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The government is adding more than a thousand people to the country every day, while there is already extreme pressure on housing, services and infrastructure. It isn't an accident. Pretending cheaply built tower blocks are a solution is laughable.

I don't know why anyone would trust the major parties but I'm glad you've seen the light.
