They must have put some effort into block lists for VPN servers. Even if it works for some of us, it’s not worth it.

Our proportional system isn’t bad, but I think Australia’s ranked choice voting is the best. In my country it’s still possible to waste a vote because the party didn’t get a single seat. In Australia this never happens. They also make it mandatory to vote, which I want for my country too.
I paid all the more attention last vote (Australia).
I’m not thrilled with Labour right now, but it kept Dutton and the regressives out, and kept Palmer’s wannabe Trumpism in the dirt.
Our Greens lost a senate seat, which most put down to Gaza support offending the idiotic Jewish segment that think its antisemetic. Then again, I had to wait in line behind asshats going off on transphobic rambles, so the idiocy is everywhere to be fair.
