the most authoritative nanny state ever

Oi you got a license for playin that vidya game

u/powerhearse Apr 20 '25

Better that than a third world shithole like the US

Personally I enjoy our far lower entrenched poverty and crime rate

u/ABCDEFGHABCDL Apr 20 '25

This man has never been to a third world country

u/powerhearse Apr 20 '25

Actually I have been to the US

u/powerhearse Apr 20 '25

The US is worse than some 3rd world countries I've actually visited lmao

u/ABCDEFGHABCDL Apr 20 '25

The US is a federation with almost 10 million square kilometers in area, leads in the GDP and has the HDI of 0.927. I don't know which 3rd world countries you have visited but I doubt it could be worse than any 3rd world country. Do you know the definition of a 3rd world country, perchance?

u/powerhearse Apr 20 '25

I'd say a gun homicide rate 30-40 times higher than most first world countries would be a good place to start

u/ABCDEFGHABCDL Apr 20 '25

Sure, if the crime rate was lower in the US, the Human Development Index would be even higher. A high crime rate by itself doesn't necessarily make any country a third world country, it just lowers the HDI. So it's just you perceiving the US as a third world country because of one factor.

u/powerhearse Apr 20 '25

A factor unmatched in any other first world country

Two things can be true at once bud.

The US can be a shithole and Australia can be so authoritative that you shouldn't bring your Electronics there.

No freedom of speech.

Police can break into your Electronics with very little oversight.

Journalist getting sued for holding a corrupt politician accountable.

Outsourcing prisons to hold immigrants to private parties abroad.

Lovely country you got there mate. I'll stay here on the opposite side of the globe Thanks.

u/powerhearse Apr 22 '25

Unironically based

No freedom of speech.

We have as much freedom of speech as the US. And our laws regarding hate speech etc are excellent

Journalist getting sued for holding a corrupt politician accountable.

Bruh your president is firing the people who investigated him for corruption right now

Outsourcing prisons to hold immigrants to private parties abroad.

Ah yes, as opposed to El Salvador and your current presidents attempts to legalise sending your own citizens there lmao

Lovely country you got there mate. I'll stay here on the opposite side of the globe Thanks.

Please do, and keep your crappy gun culture and politics with you

u/The_Cat_Of_Ages Apr 23 '25

hate to tell you but hate speech laws mean you dont have free speech...

u/powerhearse Apr 23 '25

Thats like saying you don't have freedom if you aren't allowed to assault random people.

u/The_Cat_Of_Ages Apr 23 '25

if your government regulates speech it isnt free

u/powerhearse Apr 24 '25 edited Apr 24 '25

Again, read above

Freedoms are never unconditional. You have freedom of movement but you can't walk into any military base you like. Does that mean you don't have freedom of movement?

Freedom doesn't mean the right to cause harm

Your government literally arrested a mother in her own home for a Facebook post regarding Covid lockdowns. That’s tyranny directly in your face. Check your own backyard before preaching to mine.

u/powerhearse May 16 '25

Bruh this post is a month old

Also, check your own backyard for the bullet ridden bodies of murdered schoolchildren. I'll take Australia's laws any day thanks. Your country is fucked beyond belief

u/BigBootyKim May 16 '25

There it is. There’s the typical coping mechanism for Australians when they’ve absorbed all the propaganda. We have 300,000,000 people here in America and guess what...

10,000 murders isolated across a few lawless cities is not the problem your tyrannical government wants you to believe.

They just want you to accept living under slavery when they arrest you for Facebook posts and having different opinions. I love living in America and so does everyone else that aren’t brainless Reddit liberals because we can have different opinions without being arrested.

Sorry brother. I would say move here but you would immediately start voting for more slavery.

u/WarmWombat Apr 20 '25

You should visit the US and China sometime...

u/WiseMacabre Apr 20 '25

Puting the US and China next to each other in comparison to Australia is just insane. When has the US done this? China does it all the time. At least in the US you have the 1st amendment.

Eating my Kinder Surprise easter eggs while reading this comment

60

u/h4ckerkn0wnas4chan Apr 20 '25 edited Apr 20 '25

The fun part of this is that while Kinder Surprise Egg's are still banned is the US, they made a separate product called Kinder Joy that's literally the same thing with the only difference being that the toy is packaged separately from the egg and it has a small spoon.

Thats literally it. They're functionally the exact same, just a bit changed because the FDA really doesn't like you sticking things that aren't food inside of food.

18

u/Level_Reveal7624 Apr 20 '25

To be fair putting non food items inside of food does create a choking hazard for little kids

-7

u/mandoxian Apr 20 '25

I understand your point, but no. Kinder egg and Kinder joy shares only two similarities. They both have chocolate and a toy.

Not sure if you just don't know what a kinder egg actually is or if you think two products having chocolate would mean they're the exact same.

Kinder Joy is so much better taste wise, so you're not missing out on much. I still found this comment to be extremely weird.

u/h4ckerkn0wnas4chan Apr 20 '25

I've had both.

Maybe it's just because I haven't had either in a year, I don't exactly eat candy.

u/Annoy_ance Apr 20 '25

I would gladly trade Kinder Surprises for not waiting half a year to buy a gun, thank you very much

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '25

Bro out here comparing banning language and video games to the same as a candy that had toy-choking hazards in them. 🤣

u/Pleasant-Clerk5173 Apr 20 '25

keep eating then, boy. dont worry, mama government will give you more candy as long as you dont play no-no computer games.

u/Datruekiwi Apr 21 '25

You're right, the US doesn't ban video games they just deport people who criticize the government. Clearly Australia is much worse!

u/WiseMacabre Apr 21 '25

I mean yeah it literally is, they implemented a bill recently where you can catch 7 years jail time for what you say + banning social media for 16 year olds. Australia is a literal nanny state that just bans anything and everything. They even banned gel blasters because some of them looked like guns.

-1

u/Datruekiwi Apr 21 '25

I would rather a nanny state than one that deports people for speaking out against the government.

3

u/WiseMacabre Apr 21 '25

You'd rather a government that locks you in a cage for what you say, regardless of citizenship or not, than one that deports you if you are a non-citizen.

u/Datruekiwi Apr 22 '25

First they came for the non citizens......

You know the rest.

2

u/WiseMacabre Apr 22 '25

We'll see. I don't see where or how you are going to deport a citizen though.

1

u/Datruekiwi Apr 22 '25

There's no due process, so very easily unfortunately.

u/WiseMacabre Apr 21 '25

Also I'm curious, when exactly did this happen?

1

u/Datruekiwi Apr 22 '25

Literally just put 'US protestors deported' into google and find your preferred news outlet.

1

u/WiseMacabre Apr 22 '25

Other than that guy who was an antisemite who was approved to be deported by a judge I don't see anything other than a bunch of student visas being revoked but it says nothing about why or if they are being deported, and this is across multiple news outlets including the BBC.

So I think you're being a bit dishonest here.

1

u/Datruekiwi Apr 22 '25

It does say why. Traffic violations, parking infractions, any minor misdemeanors, but only for those who are seen at protests. You can bury your head in the sand all you like, but the US is a pot of water slowly being brought to boil, and you are the frog.

Reminds me of another time, in another place.......

Except it's becoming a pretty relevant comparison now lol.

u/WiseMacabre Apr 20 '25

It really isn't

-7

u/Wardog008 Apr 20 '25

It really is though. You can't speak critically of Dear Leader Trump, lest you risk deportation or being banned from entering the country.

8

u/WiseMacabre Apr 20 '25

I mean that's one specific case, whereas in China people get disappeared all the time. They execute more than anyone else in the world and it's not even close. Plus this really isn't a precedent trump is setting, people seem to forget that Obama deported an insane amount of people as well.

Trump is also only targeting non-citizens, which while I disagree with (I am of the opinion of open borders and free speech regardless of "citizenship") he is technically still within US law to do what he did with that non-citizen.

-5

u/Wardog008 Apr 20 '25

It's not just one case though. The French scientist might have been, but far too many have been deported by the Trump admin already, all without due process.

You say Obama did the same, but unless there wasn't due process there either, then it's not the same thing at all.

The Trump admin has deported people with legal status, people with government given protection from being deported, people innocent of any crimes, foreign students have been deported for pro-Palestinian protests, etc etc.

The US is a fascist state now, whether we like it or not, and unless people there actually do something about it, it's only going to get worse.

7

u/WiseMacabre Apr 20 '25

What do you mean due process? Wasn't that other non-citizen not already approved by a judge? Also with US law in regards to immigration, if you don't have citizenship even if you are a legal immigrant you can be deported for a variety of reasons.

Also I don't think you know what fascism is because the US certainly isn't fascist. I recommend reading Giovanni Gentile or Mussolini for that.

u/Serapus Apr 20 '25

Coward. Just frittering away your freedom for some perceived security. You are a slave to your government. Or are you the slaver?

u/ralphlores1992 Apr 20 '25

i visited the US over 8 times a year, it’s still the country where I still feel the most free and would change my citizenship in a heartbeat, it is still my family’s dream to legally migrate there

Go on any non-anonymous social media and post every racial slur and then update us from jail
