Australia has a somewhat threadbare welfare state, though is more of a social democracy than the UK. And snakes and spiders are easier to avoid than Tories.

You are several orders of magnitude more likely to be killed by another human than an animal or insert in Australia.
Well that just makes sense.
Through selection pressures the only surviving Australians are highly venomous.
Have you ever been fucked up by an Emu?
Trick question, Emus don't leave behind survivors. Or witnesses.
They leave witnesses.
They just trust the drop bears to hold up their end of the bargain.
Really? How displaced is your view if you consider the USA easy mode?
Also, fuck Mexico. Apparently.
At the end of the day, while living in the US does have its share of issues, they absolutely do not compare to living in Africa.
Not to downplay how horrible life can be anywhere for someone who’s not healthy, wealthy, and typical:
Different by a factor of 187.
187 years in South Sudan to equate a year income in the US.*
*edited, thanks below
Haven't you heard? Mexico doesn't exist it is just drawn on the map to make people think that Canada and The United States are to the rest of the American Continent. Everyone who says they are from Mexico are just paid actors. /s
Also they left out New Zealand, which will not come as a surprise for New Zealanders. They will probably be happy that they are even on the map.
I can confirm that, I'm being paid to said I'm Mexican 🌮 viva México!!
they pay me with tacos btw
Mexico mode is only available once a year on May Fifth. It then disappears until next the next year.
All of central america, the caribbean, greenland, japan, hawaii, and new zealand were all unaccounted for. Probably will be included in the dlc
Mexico is so hard-as-fuck that was not included in the list.
Japan, Greenland, Cuba, New Zealand too apparently
I used to work with a guy that moved from Mexico city after his favourite cafe got gunned down by the cartel, his neighbor's family got beheaded, and a family friend's daughter got kidnapped.
It was a toxic server, PvP only. Glad it was banned
I'm gonna be real with you all, I'm in Australia and it's a little embarrassing how hard you think we have it over here compared to the shit I've heard from other places. Like don't fuck with the animals and don't put your hands in areas you can't see and you're golden. I've had to deal with random violence like three times in my 34 years here. It's pretty alright here.
You can't fool us. We know all of you are boxing kangaroos upsidedown just to get to work everyday.
Little racist there my guy. Also, America is pretty "hard mode" for a lot of people.
I'm pretty sure significant portions of the medium and hard difficulties could be flip-flopped and most of Australia's population doesn't live in the PvE warzone you're probably picturing in your head.
Life in the US is only easy for a small handful of people. Most of us consider it a good year if we got through it without crushing medical debt and retained all of our teeth. Is a third world country passing itself off as a first world country.
At least US families can expect all their children not to die by tuberculosis or malaria or something.
And fuck Australian magpies.
Assuming the mother/baby don’t die in the hospital waiting room bathroom because the hospital refused treatment.
I get our healthcare system sucks but it isn't worse than countless children dying of malaria.
Tuberculosis is still world’s deadliest infectious disease. Mostly because the healthcare in developing countries lack access to the necessary treatment for it.
TB is a solved problem in developed countries such as US. Barely anyone gets it anymore, let alone die from it.
Parts of Africa are definitely better than parts of medium tier
Africa is kind of a big place. Asia is an even bigger place.
I know this is just a shit post but fuck is this eurocentric and a bit racist let me refer you to the world happiness rank. The Corruption Perceptions Index and This map of real GDP.
https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/happiest-countries-in-the-world
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index
First of all: haha, funny, your nickname is in the OP
Secondly: how are your links you referred us to showing that the joke made is eurocentric and racist? What's real GDP growth (that's what the map you linked showed) got to do with anything? Why is the corruption perception index any indication of how hard life is gonna be if you are born in a certain place? It doesn't show how much corruption there is or the effects of said corruption, just how corrupt things are perceived as.
And regarding the happiness index.... Have you looked at the page? It lists almost exclusively countries within Europe, so that would support the joke, would it not?
Here's human rights index. Lots of different ways to measure things, none of them great.
https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/human-rights-index-vdem
Human development index matches decently except Australia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Development_Index
When are we talking about, here? Much of Europe is a disease-ridden mosquito swamp if you go back a few thousand years.
Includes British Columbia in "easy mode".
Nah, BC looks pretty, but if you unprepared off the beaten trails/roads, they'll never find your body.
The Galapagos deserves its own level at the top of this. It’s literally, “don’t eat any green apples you find on the island, okay?”
This is clearly some kind of rage bait troll post. Don't acknowledge it and maybe they will just go away
I invested all my xp into sneak and went from medium to easy.
For some reason New Guinea is included with Australia, even though the western half is owned by Indonesia, and the eastern half is its own country. Either way with the civil war going on there at the moment I'd much rather be living in Australia!
