Australia's hypocrisy is ubiquitous on much of this

Australia has the worst record of any nation for jailing and abusing climate protestors, as one example of perhaps not throwing stones

Australia leads the world in arresting climate and environment protesters

We regually kill people in custody, yet to see any black lies matter protests in Australia becase we give few fucks.

I find the entire thing bemusing as though we aren't sone of the worst arseholes in the world, we send people who legally arrive in Australia to internment camps off shore, were they are treated so badly they suicide. We deport "criminals" overseas Now (like the US is doing) we sieze and copy peoples computers and phones at the border, we have invasive anti privacy laws and when some other country does it we get "oh my god" here.
