Those "misogynists" have really hit a nerve, haven't they? It's as if they've discovered an uncomfortable truth that would destroy the foundation of society the Australian Government would like to preserve (gynocracy) if it was mass communicated.
This may also be a reaction to the stabbings at the Westfield mall recently where the protagonist was a single male.
As an aside, is this the same Albanese who wanted criticism, scrutiny and parody of him to be wiped from the Internet?
And the Westfield thing played a part, but they've just taken that as "part of a trend", of "gender-based violence", because there's been 27 or so women killed by men (supposedly) since the start of the year...
Mostly DV incidents. But because of all the media coverage, it's all turned into a sort of "gender war", with rallies and vigils and "kill all men" signs and shit.

Maybe I don't understand the full context but isn't this a country of hundreds of millions of people?
Wow, I had no idea Australia was that small. Even the Philippines has over 100M people.
Crunching the numbers, 27 women murdered by men / 123 days this year is "0.2 women" murdered per day or 1 female victim every 5 days.
For comparison, the US male-on-female DV murder rate was supposedly 4 women/day in 2019. Australia is roughly 8% of America's population, so the equivalent would be "0.32 women" / day or about 1 female victim every 3 days. But that's just the murder rate of male-on-female DV, not the overall male-on-female murder rate, which would be much higher. How impactful are these stats? They're not pleasant to think about, but I feel comfortable in saying there is no atrocious systemic culture of wifebeating in the US.
So again, I could be missing something, but this sounds like a classic case of the "one victim is too many" mentality that ensures TERFs will never, ever stop trying to exterminate men because the mere existence of bad male actors means men are evil.

Yes, yes and yes.

Yeah, "fun". Real fun.

only 25 million (for now) as we actually have higher immigration that the UK I believe based on %.
It's roughly 1 a week iirc.
