Talk about being squished between a rock and a hard place.
Much like being trapped in a trash compactor, Australian society is being crushed in the vice-like grip of Scott Morrison and Peter Dutton, and both men bearing down on us seem pretty bloody terrifying.
Thankfully, and sorry for the spoilers if you haven’t yet had a chance to get around to the 1977 film, we know Princess Leia, Luke, Han, and Chewie don’t in fact get crushed to death. Due to the ingenuity of one R2-D2, our rebel heroes escape unharmed.
Much like the rebels, we too can escape, but no droid is coming to our rescue. There is a world to win beyond the rapidly enclosing walls of potato-based authoritarianism and God-based rapture, but we’ll need a united front to win it.
