Who is 122.108.141.214 and what was their purpose in copy-pasting all this?

This page has a lot of facts and figures, but the purpose appears to be to obfuscate rather than illuminate. Who was the anonymous contributor who copy-and-pasted most of the content? Why do they appear unaware of the bulk of literature related to the treatment of disabled Aussies by the government and other major Aussie institutions, including the landmark 2011 OECD report that found: "THE disabled are more likely to be living in poverty in Australia than any other developed country, and the nation ranks in the bottom third of OECD nations in employing those with a disability." (Source: https://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/health/australia-ranks-among-worst-in-oecd-on-needs-of-disabled/news-story/c1db816bb76ac2863ba7816d200b7409 ) There is a Royal Commission into the way disabled people are treated in Australia, but this article omits all of the uncomfortable facts in favor of a lot of numbers that ultimately say nothing.
