#especially irt the robodebt victims who caused all this hassle for them in the first place

[realasslesbian]

So subsequent to being a robodebt victim I sort of fell into this funk of ‘not only is there no point in trying, but in fact it’s better if I don’t, bc every time I have ever tried to do something good it’s backfired horrifically, so I’m just going to make like a tree and exist, no trying to do anything for myself, just drink some water, get some sunlight, and that is all’. And recently, after a few years of living a tree-like existence, I thought ‘you know, this is illogical, like there is no rational correlation between ‘trying’ and the universe taking a big shit on you, let’s just try again, yeah?’ So I signed up for a one hour a week job and the Australian government took that as an excuse to call up all of my previous employers of the last decade to ask for payslips and as an aside tell them all I’m homeless. Additionally all my online government accounts are being overrun with entirely fake income data from a century ago, not to mention apparently thousands of dollars in superannuation I have never had. And the logical part of me is just like ‘ok cool yeah, obviously they’re mistaken, someone just got their wires crossed, it’ll work out’, but that’s exactly what I told myself the last time a whole bunch of fabricated data was flying around my government accounts bc of robodebt, so I already know what’s coming. In conclusion: irrational belief system confirmed✅

#I guess the Australian government figures they swept the robodebt scandal far enough under the rug by now they can resume their bullshit #especially irt the robodebt victims who caused all this hassle for them in the first place #ngl I was expecting this since the class action kicked off #bc the Australian government does not just graciously accept defeat in anything #it doesn't matter if it's coalition or labor #they're literally just two sides of the same coin #they both protecting the same interests #which is the well-being of their own tax-payer funded bank accounts #like hell would they just close the book on a bunch of people who had them cough up $1.9 billion #out of what would have otherwise been their annual bonus fund #robodebt victims been marked since day one of this scandal #that's why it ain't been in the media #why the biggest class action in Australian history is so widely unknown about #even to this day #they been preparing for revenge #that's literally it #auspol #australia #corruption #authoritarianism
