Australia Considers Values Test for Migrants to ‘Filter Out Hate’ Like Bad Spotify Playlists
KEY POINTS
- •David Littleproud proposed a values test for temporary visa applicants to prevent importing hate.
- •This proposal follows increased street discord in Sydney and Melbourne since October 2023.
- •Australian taxpayers continue subsidizing rising specialist fees linked to the Abbott-era Medicare safety net.
- •Cost estimates for reaching Net Zero Australia are being misrepresented between $1.5 trillion and $9 trillion.
As Sydney and Melbourne’s streets became the latest reality TV drama since October 2023, Queensland’s David Littleproud suggested a new 'values test' for temporary visa holders. Unlike the standard citizenship test, this one aims to weed out imported hate — because everyone knows hate behaves like a bad party guest who refuses to leave. Meanwhile, taxpayers are joyfully subsidising specialist fees, a side effect of the Abbott-era Medicare safety net now 'exploding' faster than TikTok trends, according to The Guardian's 2025 updates. And lest we forget, some groups are misrepresenting Net Zero Australia cost estimates from $1.5 to $9 trillion, proving Australians love their budgets as confusing as their public transit.

Australia’s new immigration strategy: a values test to stop importing hate, because apparently racism is a suitcase you can check on a temporary visa.
Nothing says welcome to Australia like a values test that basically says 'Please leave your hate at home, but your credit card’s okay.'
Imagine needing a test just to make sure your temporary visa doesn’t come with extra baggage named Hate™. Australia, efficiency at its peak.
