Overseas News

A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules
  1. Follow the aussie.zone rules
  2. We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
  3. Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
  4. Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

That's cool. I already didn't want to go.

"Most at risk"?! As if they had the exclusive on hating the pedopresident on the Internet!

Well I guess travel to or through the USA is off the cards for me until they have a regime change.

Cancel culture at its finest!

It's always projection

It's a big, wide world to choose from.

And the vibe I get from the US is "We don't want you here"

I doubt even my white blue eyed privilege would help me any over there, I likely rate too highly on their woke-o-meter.

Who the heck would go to the US in these times.

Travelling to authoritarian country rapidly descending into fascism turns out to not be entirely safe, more at 11

And how will that happen exactly? It seems like an awful lot of work.
