Weren't NZ and Australia pretty authoritarian during Covid? Seems like they were IIRC.

Yeah, they where both fucked during covid. Now everyone just acts as if nothing happened and they weren't fucking Nazis at the time.

Australia is rolling out digital IDs, which will no doubt be linked to vaccination status. CBDCs are around the corner. It will be full Chinese style commie credits for being a good boy or girl and doing what you are told.

Yes especially Australia
But NZ was also wacky with masks, vaccines and lockdowns

This is why for me, I'd make a list of things I'm concerned about or don't like about where I live. There isn't any place on earth that is perfect. Its gonna come down to trade-offs and compromises. There are many factors. The other thing is that you can't just trust the media about what it is like living somewhere. Some places within the same jurisdiction are unaffected by wacky politicians.

NZ (and OZ) totally fucked up WEF puppet politicians, couldn't do anything without the digitial jab pass, except be in nature and go to the supermarket to buy groceries, people look at you like you were a freak for not wearing the blue face rags. And the cost of living is thru the roof!! housing shortage in NZ is totally fucked, families were living in cars a decade ago, it's crisis point now.
