The Australian government , throughout history has always had an element of paranoia to it, which I remember learning in history comes from being surrounded by neighbours who for the majority aren’t of European decent (feeling vulnerable), and being geographically far from the motherlands who would protect her if war broke out. I think a lot of this fear remains to this day and drives a lot of these weirdo authoritarian, draconian policies. Australia is like a child without her mum, scared of the dark and unknown. Lastly the leader of the country is a religious fanatic who believes in all types of weird things. It’s a shame it’s going in the wrong direction for sure.
