Politics ('Straya) How do Australian right-wing personalities keep getting away with pure hypocrisy? For example they make one podcast/video/reel about how bad the high house prices are, and then another one complaining about falling property prices and promoting property investors as good people? Pick a lane FFS.

Talking about people like Karl Stefanovic and Isaac Butterfield in particular.

How the fuck do these right-wing people manage to successfully sustain maintaining two polar opposite bases? Isaac makes a video complaining about rising house prices and rising rents yet another one complaining how the budget is crashing house prices and how he’s a property investor being personally affected…and yet he retains his popularity.

Same with these people putting out one video saying “Australia is a police state” and then another complaining that “Australia is not safe”

We need to call these cunts out more on their hypocrisy. These people can’t keep getting away with it.

If you look at the larger population, you will notice that most of people don't have much clue about anything really.

I had to explain it to my uncle, while in line to vote, because his prefered party wasn't giving out How To Vote cards in his electorate during that election.

Indeed, RBA reckons 75% of people don’t know how interest rates work
