Paging u/bamboozler1, the Aussie-in-exile, for his thoughts on this because TBH care more about hearing what he has to say than anything else since he posted about the run up to this and now that it's done, and not in the way the Aus Gov were wanting it to go, I want to know what he thinks about this result specifically and what it might mean more generally for Australia.
He hasn't posted in a month after recently moving to Sweden 🤔 I don't want to make my usual inactivity joke here but does anyone know if he's okay before I start saying "he ded".
So, as amusingly sarcastic as this is (I assume), true story: I did actually meet and talk to Greta briefly a few weeks ago. She was just as weird, loud, and annoying as you might expect.
And yes, that sounds like bullshit, but I have photographic evidence, haha.
It was ridiculously, absurdly easy to do. So myself and the people I was with did so.
But holy shit it must be annoying people getting up in your face all the time with cameras and shit.
I ended up standing near her (at an event) for much longer than I wanted to, and it was annoying for me, as well…
Did also get to (separately) meet one of her colleagues/close friends, though, and that went much better, to say the least. Name’s Isabel. Half-British, half-Swedish. Great chick.
So yeah, I swear, on all that I’m worth, that this entire thing did actually happen. Because Sweden.
It is fucking fantastic being a reasonably confident Australian here, at least in terms of meeting women.

He’s probably swimming in Swedish liberal women and too busy to post.
He probably sees a hot local woman (like greta thunberg) and wows her with his australian accent.

Any advice for a fellow aussie who would also like to get out? Ideally not to a woke residential cult.
