Bold claims need proof. Does Australia have a history of that?
During COVID times the Australian government pressured all local media to censor criticism of the government's COVID measures. Regardless of how valid or invalid you consider the dissent, it was still dissent being suppressed.
Not sure why you are being downvoted. It's a fantastic example.
