  Is that one of his good “exposing corruption in our political system” type videos, or one of his shitty “here’s a misrepresentation of our voting system to encourage you not to vote third party” type videos?

  i.e., should I bother watching it or not?

    Haha, I agree, he’s a mixed bag.

    It’s nothing you wouldn’t be aware of, but it’s good to see some awareness raising.

      To be clear, my main question here is: is he playing defence for Labor again (like he frequently does whenever Labor and the Greens have a disagreement), or is this a genuine look at the issue?

        No, he is critical of labor with the caviet we can’t piss off daddy don USA and so labors position is reasonable.

        He has a point, is what it is, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down. And I’d prefer a competent government over a coalition of corrupt, idiotic scammers
