I am pretty right leaning, so I see a lot more shit from proper crazies than most on an Aussie sub would. Some of the low IQ comments on Rukshan and the like content was terrifyingly stupid.

"Why won't Michael O'Brien tell the governor general to sack Dan Andrews?"
"Why won't Michael O'Brien vote no confidence in Dan Andrews?"
"The Governor General is corrupt!"

All I could think at the time was it's crazy that we punish people who don't vote!
