So Anthony Albanese just won in a landslide. The media is celebrating, Labor’s smug grin is plastered across every screen—and Peter Dutton? He’s left with no seat. But let’s drop the fake applause and get real: Labor didn’t win because of a great vision or policy. They won because they lied, and the media helped them do it.
This wasn’t a campaign. It was a psychological operation.
Labor ran wall-to-wall ads smearing Peter Dutton’s credibility. The claims? Laughably false. But it didn’t matter. They knew something the Liberals still haven’t figured out: Repetition beats reality. Labor’s lies stuck in voters’ minds because they played on loop. Dutton’s team? They barely registered. A day after the election, can anyone even remember a single LNP ad?
Labor turned this into a referendum on a man, not a party. And the Liberals walked right into the trap.
Meanwhile, the biggest gift ever handed to the Coalition—the failure of the Voice referendum—was left untouched. Albanese was humiliated by that result. Australians overwhelmingly said no. But instead of capitalizing on that, the Liberals let it fade. No reminder that Albanese is still “1000% committed” to the Uluru statement from the heart. No warning that he plans to legislate a version of the Voice anyway. They let Labor rewrite history.
Then came the nuclear mess. Dutton tossed out a vague idea with no numbers, no sites, no plan. Labor filled in the blanks—with fantasy figures like a $600 billion price tag. And the public believed it. Because again, the Liberals said nothing. They could’ve pointed to the billions already wasted on Chinese-made wind farms and solar panels that barely power anything. But silence.
And don’t even get me started on immigration. Labor’s open borders and mass migration program are driving up housing prices and crushing working Australians. It’s a deliberate mirgration replacement strategy. The Liberals should’ve gone scorched earth on this—but nope. Barely a whisper.
The truth? The Liberal Party didn’t just lose an election. They lost their spine. They tried to beat Labor by becoming Labor-lite—and voters chose the real thing.
Albanese’s landslide wasn’t a win for policy. It was a win for propaganda. And the Liberals walked straight into the ambush.
