      LOL. Clive saw Trump win and ordered his people to lean into identifying as closely with that as they can get away with legally. It’s like scammy electric-car startups a few years ago choosing names that sounded as reminiscent of Tesla as possible (Nikola, Faraday Future) without actually infringing on any trademarks.

      The problem of that the plausibly-deniable reading of his new party name, with its Biblical-apocalyptic imagery and emphatic pledge-of-allegiance patriotism, comes across as exceedingly American, to the point where most undecided Australians would take one look and say “yeah, nah”.

          Absolutely. Some of those fucked-up stars look like maple or cannabis leaves 😆 It’s not like Palmer couldn’t have afforded an illustrator, either. Right-wing boomers just love AI garbage for some reason.

          Oh, and as a bonus, the Latin is wrong 😆

            You can’t trust an illustrator, as most people who can draw are commies. Which is why AI exists: so right-wing people can get art made without paying some dirty hippie who believes in equality and human rights.
