Australia thinks that it has the right to censor the entire internet, for everybody, because otherwise an Australian serf could still see it by being elsewhere or using a VPN to see websites available elsewhere.
The Australian government's proposed "misinformation" bill that will extend its censorship to all information that it declares is "misinformation", including political speech.

Anthony Albanese and his government are a bunch of arrogant Leftists who think they should be able to impose their censorship on everybody else around the world contrary to common sense.

Projecting arrogance. Every government functionary anywhere in the world does it.
The prime minister clearly thinks that national law is above all; perhaps even God’s law, if they acknowledged there was such a thing.

Is it better to show violent videos to remind people of what some extremists are capable of, or is it better to sweep it under the rug and not remind the voters that your failed immigration policies led to this attack, Mr. Prime Minister?

‘alleged stabbing’? Is there any question on whether the Bishop was stabbed or not?

Since when did the dictatorial Aussie government limit its decrees to the law of that land down under. “Lex Rex” made the West and “Rex Lex” is a step backward to serfdom.

Austrailia is certainly welcome to cut itself off from the internet, if it wants to “protect” its mind-numbed robots (who have already allowed themselves to be disarmed) masquerading as citizens. The rest of the world will somehow have to live without kangaroo videos.
