    off-topic, but what is a leftist take on the kelly gang? i am from the US and know very little about it, but i was once in an aussie guild called "the kelly gang" b/c my sleep schedule is nocturnal. they were really chill people and also quite good despite having like 200 ping.

      Kelly gang were a group of poor immigrants that killed corrupt cops, robbed banks and burned debt records while ensuring that no actual innocent civilians got harmed so I would say very based.

      I'm from the US as well but living in Australia and from what I understand, the PM is a conservatard that'll happily spend $200 billion on the military, but then complain about a $500/fortnight coronavirus supplement being "frivolous spending." Good news is, their Labor Party aren't like the Democrats and actually care about people. So, fingers crossed for next election

        Lol, Labor fucking sucks, especially under the current leadership. The lesson they took from their last election loss was to roll over and let the Liberal party do whatever they want.

        I feel more safe voting for them over democrats, but they have a lot to make up for. Albo is the softest cunt we've had in a while
