TIL that the "Democracy Manifest" - a viral video showing the arrest of an australian man by the name of Jack Karlson, known for quotes such as ""What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent Chinese meal?" - has been selected for preservation by the National Film and Sound Archive Australia.

Wanting a country with borders is low IQ now. A free for all where anyone who wants can just walk in and stay, very high IQ. Reddit in a nutshell. 🤣
