Im repping Aus too, welcome!
Its great to get a direct and reasonable communication line with people across the world, particularly the USA. Not quite the same as the main pillars of social media.

In the past year, the major US public forums, or "internet town squares" (Twitter, FB, youtube, etc), have "de-platformed" many conservative voices--mainly by shadow banning, and demonetizing their posts. Our public education systems have intentionally failed to teach our children history and civics--instead trying to instill into them socialist/communist "altruism". Trump may be our last best hope.

Welcome brother from a different mother.
