>>11963484It's something which is technically true but which distracts from the broader point.
The broader point being the fire chiefs tried warning the government this was going to happen due to climate change creating more extreme conditions for these fires to happen, but the government refused to hear what they had to say since their official policy was to ignore climate change or deny it altogether. I trust what the fire departments were saying way more than that disphit Scotty who just fucked off to Hawaii and should've got knocked the fuck out when he tried doing the PR tours around the towns that got nearly incinerated.
The second point is that our dry seasons are getting longer and our big bushfires are getting more and more frequent as a result. Bushfires are the norm in Australia and always have been, but the frequency of them is increasing, and this is absolutely due to changing climate conditions.
Both of these points were avoided by the government in favour of "arsonists" and related deflection tactics. Literally the entire Australian government is human sewage trying to loot the place for as much as they can get and sell us out to China/the US and whatever other faggy agendas they happen to think of
