Ehh that’s a very cynical and kinda misleading take of how it works. This may be generally true in the house of representatives but still 12% of the seats don’t end up funnelled to the two major parties. In the senate a quarter of senators aren’t affiliated with either major party and at the moment it requires Labor to collaborate to pass bills, so although we do have two major parties we are nowhere near being a two-party system.

Mate that’s akin to saying the US is not a two party system due to having independents or third party senators.
The democrats currently don’t have majority and rely on Bernie, King, and Sinema to pass bills.
