Whilst the Morrison government was pretty shit, the call of "aboriginals are getting more from Centrelink than me" is not at all a new one, and can't be attributed back to them. And comparing our government at the time to the Trump administration is laughable.
The "acceptable discourse" is no more right wing or conservative since Abbott. If anything, progressive voices are louder. You know Rudd was publicly against gay marriage as a sitting PM, and it was passed under a Liberal government, right?
If you want to see the evolution of our acceptable discourse, go read a Murdoch rag from 40 years ago. A few opinion pieces from The Herald in the 80s might let you see what "acceptable discourse" was then compared to now.
