to be fair, given that it's an entire continent, there's endless spaces where you can live in perfect peace and quiet but that would be in solitude, not near any urban life lol in urban spaces in Australia you're all but guar

That's kind of the point though? When they say their voting system is perfect or the best, they're just saying it because they've been told to think so, not because they have a meaningful understanding of which properties the
