A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.
If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.
Rules
- Follow the aussie.zone rules
- We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
- Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
- Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

i've read a book that said that the reason empires fall is frequently that they produce too many "elite" for the empire to sustain. so some of the elite that want more status are willing to sell out their country to foreign influence to topple the current order.
imagine a crazy world like that if you can
Yea, that'd be crazy.
Do they always bang and eat kids or are we unique?
I guarantee there are 'elite' out there seething that Musk has 'their' money, and will do anything to somehow get it from him.
Democracy is already dead. It's just that the stench of its rotting corpse hasn't yet gotten so bad that people who don't want to face that fact have to anyway.
For the most part, yes.
Voting for a representative every four years is not democracy, in any meaningful sense. The AEC is outstanding compared to other countries, I hold them in high regard and I am grateful, but we cannot pretend that people and their needs have more political influence than capital.
Nobody in the west is allowed to say the truth about Israel. We don’t have democracy the west is all colonies of Israel run by compromised pedophiles
Israel is a colony of the US. The real "unspeakable truth" is that the US is a world-spanning colonial empire, using corporations and puppet states and charities and drug gangs and international trade organisations to break local autonomy and get US billionaire pedophiles more control over the world.
