There is a radical right insurgency here. They might call themselves conservatives, or it might be that white identity politics thing. This is the point for the Murdoch press and similar people.
60 years ago it more hierarchical and there was more social responsibility and concern for the commonwealth, albeit condescending as you would expect.
The insurgents attack the ABC as elitist and leftist. The right is angry perhaps out of envy? Here, I mean.
There was a 9 year old girl who refused to stand for Advance Australia Fair. It's a pretty dreadful settler thingo. "Australians all let us rejoice for we are young and free'. And she decided this was not true. She was attacked for being divisive, which she was, insisting on the truth when so many prefer lies. She wrote an oped in the Saturday Paper. Feels like The Emperors New Clothes.
