  My point was that the entirety of Australia isn't in some dark fascist curfew (not just yet anyways) like the parent seems to suggest. > ... oh and also the rest of the entire planet. That wasn't what this thread was about but yes I am aware.

    So your counter-argument to "Australia is turning itself into a prison state" is "Australia is not yet 100% a prison state, there are still some places where you could roam free, if you're careful not to go to wrong places and don't try to get out". That sounds like arguing supermax prison conditions aren't so bad because there are also county jails that people get more time for walks in the yard.

      You're putting words into my mouth. There's a goddamn reason those places are in lockdown. 1000+ covid cases, while small in comparison to other countries, is the highest a state has ever had here. Lockdown has kept numbers down in the past. If state governments didn't constantly lockdown and then come of out lockdown and instead stayed locked down for longer cases would have remained in the 100s. But people are morons and they want to do whatever it is they do and pretend that people aren't dying from this goddamn disease.
