in Australia, when we pay taxes, we get a receipt. The receipt shows what our taxes were spent on (lemmy.world) I assume “Other purposes” is govt kickbacks to mining and gas companies 😬

That being, before cyber bullying laws existed, you had bunches of people getting off scot-free with telling you to off yourself or call you a list of derogatory terms.
