Why doesn't Australia have a big nightlife culture?
It used to, 24h parties going from Thursday night through to Monday morning, but several government policies killed it off entirely.Back in the early 2010s when social media became widespread, Australians were just trying to outdo each other drinking, then all the drug sharing, then all the dumb videos of attentionwhores pissing and shitting on the streets and causing damage. So in a kneejerk reaction most places introduced a lockout law, so you couldn't enter a venue after 2am in Sydney, 1am in Brisbane, and so on. A lot of it was spurred on by Crown Casino and ClubsNSW, trying to filter people into their venues as their gambling dens were (for some mysterious reason) not included in this legislation. All the venues and promoters and the rest moved down to Melbourne whose 4am lockout laws weren't really hurting business too much. Then when COVID-19 hit Melbourne's Dictator Dan (PBUH) locked down the city for almost 300 days, no one was allowed outside their home without government permission, then when they were allowed to go out venues had to limit patrons to like 20 per night and everyone had to present their COVIDvaccination app on their phone, and then after the government declared the pandemic over they stopped handing out grants to businesses to stay in business and people were too scared to go out still. People moved onto camping and just drinking with friends in a safe place, like on the beach or at their friends' places. A lot of places loosened the lockdown laws post-COVID to promote patronage but it was dead and gone, people preferred the more intimate settings or open settings like the bushdoofs that emerged to bypass restrictions. Essentially, the government purposefully killed the industry and it never recovered.
>>2818098Because people are waking up to how retarded and boring nightclubs are.
>>2818162Everyone is too self conscious and afraid of looking stupid to dance and mingle with strangers.
>>2818163Everyone is too ugly/brown/stupid to want to mingle with.
>>2818163The one time I tried to dance on a nightclub floor in Mexico, someone deliberately pushed me from behind. Twice. I never figured out which guy did it, but I got the hint and walked out of the place.
>>2818165>everyone is brownthisgirls dont want to go to places full of indian guys
>>2818098It's dangerous to go out at night, especially if you've been drinking. The wildlife are hostile and trying to kill people all the time.
>>2818107Just need to go out with ignorant and geopolitically stupid zoomers and you will forget it and have a ball. Gen Z is fun
>>2818098because australia is surprisingly conservative and authoritariansee e.g. the stranglers song "nuclear device" which has the line : brisbane men stay at home all night 'cos i outlawed all of the viceit's a reference to the politician joh bjelke petersen who was nasty, corrupt and authoritarian all at the same timethis is what happens when you make a country based on imported convicts and inbred stone age natives
Brisbane and maybe Perth has the whitest night life. Then would be Adelaide. Then Sydney. Melbourne though is basically like a shitty american hipster city and the nightclubs are full of brownoids.
>>2818163I went and danced in QLD casino and some drunk milf came up and just started grinding on me. If it wasn't for my family right behind me watching, I would've pounded her ass raw that night.
>>2818098Sydneyfag here. Don't really go to nightclubs anymore but do occasionally frequent bars. What really turns me off are the strict bouncers who'll shoo you away unless you're with girls. I mean if i have girls why tf would i go to the club? Also there's usually a huge pig (aka cops) presence where 8 or 10 of them will storm through a club with sniffer dogs. I'm usually always carrying so it really fucks me up when this happens. These days we'll just go to someones house so we can do drugs in peace when go to the whores later on in the night. Sydney nightlife fkn sucks. Fuck Mike Baird for introducing the lock out laws as a knee jerk reaction. Fkn faggot politicians...
>>2818098Australia has more of a bug nightlife culture nowadays if you catch my meaning.

>>2820847>Fuck Mike Baird for introducing the lock out lawsTook me all of 10 seconds to find that the lockout laws DID indeed serve their purpose and reduce night time criminal activity.

>>2818107lamoing at cucked austrannies, guess hanging out in your mate's backyard with a shrimp in the barbie ain't so bad though
The lockout laws worked but all they did was make the Aussies stay home while all the brownoids fill the city streets at night now.
