I could've sworn I heard about the Netherlands discovering a backdoor in them. But nevermind credible, I can't find any source at all to support that.

Theophobia(?) is not helpful. Shaming people for their religious beliefs benefits nobody. Biblical fundamentalism is a problem, sure, but science does not have an explanation yet for many things like the initial formation of single-celled life and the birth of the universe (big bang aside). We are in no position to judge someone for how they choose to fill those gaps.
The second is proof that when Labor decides to act on something and get it done, it can.
Getting a supply of petrol is a skill issue. Labor wins 10 times out of 10 on skill issues. A gas export tax, fixing the housing crisis, gambling reforms, and Israel are political issues. Labor, with so much of the country rigged against them, almost always loses when it comes to political issues.
Because it takes time for an air conditioner to cool down the place, and it wastes energy to keep it running for 8 hours while you're at work.
Well, then do that.
Those tools cost money.
There is currently no alternative to the left of the Democrats that has a credible path to power. It is not an "immediate harm" to undermine an alternative which is not even considered a genuine threat by the establishment.
Build those alternatives, sure, but they are not going to overturn the current system overnight.
We need to live in the reality that we're getting evil either way and try to minimize harm.
Nobody knows what the long term holds, and it's in no universe worth gambling on accelerationism when there's real immediate harm we can prevent by voting for the Democrats. At the very least, measles won't come back.

GOG exists. You can literally buy games DRM free online and for the same price as on Steam.
Games aren't like movies. You can own the games you buy if you're willing to put in the effort.
Goodbye device ownership, and the last vestiges of free speech will die with this bill as well.

2022 election: Labor vs. Scott Morrison. 2025 election: Labor vs. Peter Dutton.
That's why Labor won. They had an incompetent opposition. Also in 2022 there was a sense in the press that they wanted the LNP gone so they started accurately representing the choices. Labor needs to be on edge because if the LNP find someone competent to lead them then they'll be on the ropes going forwards (probably won't lose the next election though).
And the NDIS reforms aren't really them being right-wing, it's them being competent. The NDIS is growing in cost ludicrously, and has become a haven for fraudulent service providers. It needs urgent reform, even if it pisses off Labor's left flank.
