it's not difficult to understand
these are the same politicians who win office by exacerbating tensions between religions, class, ethnic groups and gender and then when things get bad solution is passing laws that impose greater censorship and restrictions on freedom.
for 20 years now australian politicians have flirted with the far right in australia. they have used the problems in minority communities and the immigration system to exacerbate tensions and divions and this fear has been instrument to in particular liberal party political success.
it's really appalling see level of discourse. 20 kids can get shot in a school and level of debate on national media is how we should consider changing law so instead of having 15 rounds in your clip you only have 10. i mean really? That's the debate.
Some white nationalist walks into a mosque and shoots 50 people and our response it lets control social media and ban guns. Problem solved.
That's the solution? Why does every problem we face like this only ever get solved by laws that reduce freedoms and impose greater censorship controls? No debate about effect reductions in quality of public education, mental health care, concentration of media assets, greater economic equality and it's causes are having on these type of events?
