    Occasionally I think to myself, 'did I go too far with that police state stuff', then I wait 30 seconds and the government does something that makes me think 'are you fucking kidding?'

        If it makes a difference, I am glad you are highlighting it. It worries me how the govt is undermining our democracy this way.

        We need a class action against ‘our’ government to compensate for depression and related issues.

        I think you have taken a rather restrained view of it all. This government is to be feared.

        I often tweet that we are not heading into fascism, but are already there. I too wonder if I go too far. Then I read of our Government taking yet another step in that direction, and I know I haven't. In the future, all of us who have used these phrases in tweets will be arrested.

        You will feel more at ease with the police state descriptor if you reread Hannah Arendt’s works on fascism. It is an outcome that the LNP wants to enforce its policies on behalf of its 1% donors
