We’ve done it, we got rid of another soulless right wing politician!

Peter Dutton first made his party lose this election and now also lost his own seat much like Pierre Pullover

We’ve still got a government that green-lit new coal power plants in it’s last term, screwed over the Aboriginal community with a poorly run referendum, and still doesn’t give a shit about climate change, but baby steps hey.

    Done. Only because I respect you.

    It doesn’t make sense that rule. But you’ll disagree anyway and there’s never a chance of winning a mod argument anyway.

    The article headline you want is pointless and meaningless to the 99% of the world who visits this.

    Peter Dutton to leave Coalition leaderless, conceding he has lost his seat of Dickson

    I added context and a little bit of juice to it so it would make for a better headline for non-Australians. Did I add some anti Trump sentiment? Sure. Did that misconstrue the content of the article? No.

    I understand the current rule makes it easy to mod the place, but it also means you don’t let the OP add context for Lemmy. The rule should be: you can’t misconstrue the content of the article.

    Anyway, I appreciate all you mods do and I respect the rules that are in place.
