Nobody was suggesting that. For the most part, people are surprised to see this make it outside of Australia. Most of the time people outside of Australia don't care about Australian news, in the same way I don't care about some obscure new law that's been passed in Azerbaijan or Scotland. Nobody would expect minor Australian news to make it to all or active because 99% of things posted here are only seen by a few people on other instances. And before I realised it had done that, of course I thought it seemed fucking suspicious there were this many comments on and votes on a post here. Any sane person would.
Nobody? There's multiple comments specifically calling it sus
Yes there are, but who suggested it's a "global conspiracy"?
What would they be implying otherwise?
There's a big fuckin' difference between 'claiming global conspiracy' and 'commenting that you recognise potential signs of a brigade'. Weird narrative to play, dude.
Wow crazy it's almost like hyperbole doesn't exist
...yeah you shoulda tried that one in response to @Baku
