Australian democracy is under attack (Leithvo)

The weekend's Treasury of Common Sense with Luke Grant at Radio 2GB/4BC explained how data centres threaten to upend Australia's energy system. I also explain how bureaucrats and the federal government are assaulting Australia's democracy.



The first part of this clip deals with energy shortages in the face of massive increases in power usage from data centres, EVs, and an increasing (migrant) population. The solution is to cut back on all of these things and to maintain the use of coal power stations rather than shutting them down. The second part of the interview looks at Government Internet censorship that would stop dissenting voices by using broad labels such as 'hate speech' or 'harmful misinformation' - something you would expect in an authoritarian dictatorship.
