“I've Had A Gutful! Pauline For PM!” Says Indonesian Bot Farmer Who Has Been Contracted By Shadowy Political Operatives To Manipulate Australian Social Media Algorithms

Not even a clunky National Press Club address full of inconsistent and polarising election policies could stop the extraordinary rise of Pauline Hanson.

Australians of all political stripes say they cannot get away from pro-One Nation content, as their social media algorithms deliver non-stop praise for Pauline Hanson.

And it seems the unavoidable social media saturation is now bleeding into the mid-term opinion polls.

In two federal polls that have been released since Hanson’s June 17 National Press Club address, One Nation's polling numbers have surge to both 30% and 31.5% respectively.

Owing to the collapse of the Liberal and National Parties, One Nation has only benefited from the lack of functional Federal Opposition. As of this week, Labor only leads One Nation by 51–49 after preferences.

It appears that the social media narrative is now informing the talking points of Australia's last remaining real journalists, who sat quietly during last week's press club address Pauline Hanson told them all that they are the enemy of the state and she will make sure they lose their jobs when she becomes Prime Minister.

While some political analysts say that One Nation are at risk of burning out with over two full years until the next election, Pauline Hanson's supporters remain certain that she will win government by a landslide.

Regardless of the scandals that will ensue when One Nation attempts to field 150 lower house MPs and 72 senators without any vetting process, nothing can stop this momentum.

That's according to a fired up One Nation supporter based in the densely urban locality of Tangerang in the western part of greater Jakarta.

Chaerul Saleh (38) says 'Aussies have had a gutful' and it's time to elect Pauline Hanson has Prime Minister because 'both major parties are the same'

While not an Australian citizen, Saleh can see how the rise of One Nation can only benefit him, as someone employed to generate artificial social media engagement using software and human-operated devices to manufacture influence, which is then sold to both foreign and Australian billionaires who want to dismantle the Australian political and legal system, workers rights, and corporate taxes by funding a firebrand far-right Australian minor party who they have complete and utter control over.

"She says what we are all thinking. Australia's identity is at risk of immigrants" says Chaerul Saleh.
