 Great to see #AUStriches government focussing on the important issues!

Somehow I doubt this includes fiat debt slavery though, the only actual slavery present in the country and the Western world. https://i.nostr.build/c7J24TGFFU8mMnA9.jpg https://i.nostr.build/i0eFBm71d4nKFWrG.jpg

 Deceptive recruiting and debt bondage. Hmmm. Half the country right there.

I don't see any actual action being taken, unfortunately, its just a circus act.

 Posted by the AG - you want to tell him?

 I've met Mark Dreyfus a few times, he was my local member at one point.

But I wouldn't expect anything but gaslighting and platitudes from him or any other MP...

 The Gov creating an anti-slavery commissary whilst they destroy the currency through money printing to keep everyone on a perpetual hamster wheel is gaslighting at its finest

 Mark isn't terrible on rule-of-law and freedom-of-speech issues. The best one could reasonably hope for from a major-party AG, I suppose.

But this is just a pure media stunt, I doubt anyone on his staff has given the hypocrisy much thought. The focus group feedback was net positive, with minimal negatives at all.
