Y'know, if America gets to have military bases in Australia, and gets to arbitrarily decide to go to war in a way that fucks us over, and gets to influence the outcome of our elections in ways that benefit them, I really reckon we should get a say in their elections, too.
It's only fair.
We shall bestow upon them the blessing of compulsory voting and entirely rework how their elections are performed. Also we exile the GOP to Epstein island, with no resources and an abundance of hungry north Australian crocs.
But really it mostly stems from the Union not properly punishing the Conferdates lol
