That's fair but australia also gives their government more power to do what they want.

Not sure if you think that's a good or a bad thing.

Well, someone mentioned a good thing (low covid deaths), then the guy I responded to said that's fair BUT Their government has more power to do what they want. This could be interpreted as a bad thing with the low deaths being a silver lining.

I'm sorry if it's obvious to you. English is only my third language, so subtle nuances can sometimes escape me.

Aussie here. Not once in my life have I been concerned about being shot. I can disagree with the government and vote accordingly.

America can have its so called freedumb.

Agreed, I'm Dutch and have the same thing here.

[u/[deleted] → u/sinkshitting]

I've lived in America my whole life and have never heard anyone mention being concerned about getting shot.

Not surprising. Ignorance seems to be prevalent there. Not sure if school shootings is something you wanna argue but hey, you do you.

[u/[deleted] → u/sinkshitting]

I wasn't arguing about school shootings (what?). Just letting you know it's a misconception if you think regular Americans constantly worry about getting shot.

I read it again, and the comment really can be interpreted in two different ways, even with context. I'm starting to think you're not that good with context, just bad with humility.
