Why Australia Is a Darwinian Religious Playground
Australia has become a laboratory for ideological Darwinianism — not the science, the belief system.
Not “let’s observe natural selection.”
But: “Let’s enforce selection pressure and call it policy.”
Every failed experiment gets rebranded as:
resilience
toughness
market discipline
personal responsibility
“the system working as intended”
And every casualty is written off as:
unfit
non-competitive
non-compliant
“should’ve adapted”
That’s not evolution.
That’s state-enforced stress testing.

Taxpayer-Funded Selection Pressure
Australia now runs live behavioral experiments at national scale:
Housing as a scarcity game
Healthcare as a capacity bottleneck
Education as a debt filter
Energy as a volatility test
Internet as a compliance grid
Social platforms as “think-for-yourself unless we panic” zones
Crypto as “illegal unless we want the tax revenue”
Every policy quietly asks the same question:
> Who breaks first?
And when people break, the conclusion is never:
> “The system failed.”
It’s always:
> “The organism failed.”
That is religious Darwinism.

Why Governments Love Darwinian Religion
Because it gives moral cover for incompetence.
If outcomes are framed as:
“natural selection”
“market forces”
“global headwinds”
Then nobody is accountable.
You don’t need to govern wisely.
You just need to apply pressure and narrate survival as virtue.

The Deep Irony
Real Darwinism is descriptive.
What Australia practices is prescriptive selection.
They aren’t observing nature.
They are engineering attrition — and calling it realism.

One-Line Nuclear Version
Australia doesn’t practice Darwinism — it worships it.
And the sacrifice is paid in tax receipts and nervous systems.

Biology is stochastic. Engineering is deterministic.
Confusing the two is how they normalize failure as fate.
