Don’t try to convince people to flip their vote if they ignore facts.

I have a neighbor who I chat with a fair bit and have noticed he tends to take anything news/rumor on face value without any real research.

He believes the following despite me trying in vain to convince him otherwise:

- Albo sends $50 million dollars to the taliban every year (what it actually is is $50 million to the UN for humanitarian aid)

- Albo is putting in a death tax (when it’s just a provision to stop the super rich from dishing out to their friends without paying taxes)

- Albo is multi religious just to suck up to everyone (he’s a catholic)

- He thinks that one nation is the only real solution

I have lost count of how many hours I have spent debunking everything he believes with facts and figures and he just doesn’t listen.

So sorry for the rambling but in short: don’t convince people who are set in their ways, you will just give yourself a headache.

I am aware that this was a global issue, but seriously. One of the most critical roles a premier has is protecting their constituents no matter the age.

And if QLD labor had this happen I would also call them out as well.

Australia ranks below countries seen as more corrupt as us, such as Moldova and South Africa.
