More Aussie flags wrapped around small minded moron racists shoulders or waving on poles than at any Hamas flags or Ayatollah Khamenei poster at a pro Palestine march.
It’s fucking disgusting. And then the real Nazis getting chased off by our proud FNP in their Camp Sovereignty. Is this Australia? With these black uniformed cunts charging people menacing them.

Booed off stage were they? Might wanna tell that to head NSN fuckwit, Thomas Sewell, standing behind a friggin lectern on the steps of the parliament building in Melbourne. This maggot had a captivated audience. Helped, of course, by the fact that he and his cronies were being protected by fucken riot police.

https://www.removepaywall.com/search?url=https://www.smh.com.au/national...

As for your "ballsy" fella telling a bunch of boneheads to fuck off, well, everyone's known for a while now that the National Socialist Network were instrumental in helping organise this clown show, yet they had no problem joining the festivities. So you can save yer hogwash about an Ayatollah Khamenei poster and a couple of hamas flags, cos if there were shady cunts behind the Palestine Harbour Bridge walk and everyone knew, you best believe that shit woulda been rooted out ahead of time.

As for your "I was hoping for an all in brawl, nazis versus keyeffers", are you implying some sort of equivalence between these two groups? Bud, you need ya head read.

I watched the posted footage of the various marches and it was all very civil.
Not much in the usual sanitised news.
People just blowing off steam.
All started by an 18 year old kid in SA on tik tok.
The crowds also booed the Nazis LOL
Can’t blame people for having a rant.
It’s tough out there for some.
As my previous post said,… I had my doubts…
But I think it was all OK.
People concerned about losing an Aussie culture the world loves and lines up to get here.
I’d be more worried about the other angry marches week in week out blocking up the streets about an issue we can’t fix a very long way away.
That to me is un Australian and radical.

I thought the pro Palestinian mob were mainly pro peace.
Comparing Australia and a bunch of red neck nazi losers wrapped in flags talking about taking our country back and a farken genocide taking place, now comparable to the holocaust the original Nazis undertook is really absurd.
Decent people are sick in the stomach at what is going on in the ME are are powerless to do anything.
Unlike the 1930/40's, claiming you were unaware will not wash.

My grandfather fought the Japanese in WW2 under the Australian flag, and it make me sick to see these dickheads wrapped in it.

jesus.. that's spooky.. must be a cheap-as-chips plastic lectern made in china (or scando faux-marble flat pack might suit their schtick better..) interesting read @tbb..

take a: Hellenic proto-classical amphitheater,
add: Ave Caesar address to garrison,
add: Catholic iconicism at a marble altar.

stir vigorously. divide and fold. stir again, then cook.

(side note: protestant church design insists the priest stands at a table of oak or similar,
carved with little adornment, representing communion,
and no decoration beyond a simple linen table cloth or candlestick, etc.
..NOT anything resembling an altar representing power and sacrifice).

Shame inbred supremacist bastards took a perfectly good modernist design movement like brutalism, and corrupted it to represent absolute dominant power, rather than egalitarian utilitarianism as intended. Same with neo-classicism. Why can't these idiots stand atop and arts-and-crafts podium, with art nouveau poster designs and hats..?

sypkosos has reach his level of cooked by believing whatever his twitter algorithm serves him up. What a nihilistic way to keep "informed". The twitter algorithm is so egregiously right wing focused.

This India thing's pathetic.. Australia is built on immigration.. Like @AndyM says, these toe-rags are doing a great job of making any long, sensible conversation about immigration absolutely untenable.

(do they mean people from the south or north of the sub-continent? Hindu or Musim (rhetorical) - Sri Lankan and Pakistani too? So it's a skin thing? Or are people fed-up of having 3 Hindi movies at the megaplex as well as a Korean anime, and only 15 english-language films?).

Sikhs from the Punjab regions are interesting, often poorer than upper-caste Indians, who also enroll as international students ($$$), but the farming-background Punjabis then work in the cities as taxi-drivers 10 hours a day or food-deliverers all night to pay their parents back, and kill themselves to scrape through an engineering degree too, cos it will give them a better CHANCE at becoming a naturalised citizen (after being allowed to reside here):

"the process to become a naturalised Australian citizen requires you to first become a permanent resident, which is itself a rigorous and challenging path. Once you achieve permanent residency, you must meet specific requirements including living in Australia for at least four years, having good character, passing an English and citizenship knowledge test, and attending a citizenship ceremony"

and the thing that staggers me, is these Punjabis love how hard the process is! It's why they choose our home to set up their homes, lives and families for the foreseeable generational future (just like my Scottish grandparents did). It's their life achievement to get in, and become natualised, takes a dedicated decade. They think it is a wonderful culture, better than the US or Canada because of the people. And interestingly a few have said that they like that their lazy siblings and rellies can't ride on their coat-tails to come out to Aus like they can in the US. They have to go through the process for themselves.

(if I have a problem with anyone from India here in Aus, it is the Brahmin-caste lads who think their shit doesn't stink and lose their rag when they don't get passed as a matter of course at uni.. and threaten that they will get their parents to ring the uni from Mumbai when you fail them for not doing any work or turning up.)

Exactly! Why choose or adopt this longer commanding full volume desk/lectern style...
On closer inspection...them 4 speakers & gear roll inside & the whole shebang then also rolls out!
Kinda like a bastardized Nuremberg Tradie Trolley > Ramp panel slides out & up into BMW custom Ute!

Once a mobile tradie constituent always a tradie thingamajig!
tbb is part German and has a good grasp of Combo Tradie Pack Up Kits...it's in yer blood!
Crew can see how all that packs up into a bastardized Retro Nazi Podium buggy! Got it! Oh yeah!
Not as stupid as it looks...Lectern likely still has cred but it's a souped up DJ Dolly conversion.
Meaning it likely rotates on the spot for tight getaways via Elevators / Hallways / Vans.

Here's the inspiration (Oh Yeah! Recall it driving about!)

Need for speed to pack up & move out faster amongst crowds in Rallies etc...
Around 2000 > tbb designed Fold Up Pollie Sign Stands + Golf Buggy Hoarding for a Bike in a Wagon.
That plus all the Tools / Plaster / Stools / Planks / Sheets of Gyprock / Cement sheet on Roof
All meant to cover Max # Oz Booths from back of the HQ Wagon...(Border < > Beenleigh was Huge!)
On the way home from work Cooly < > Beenleigh tbb would get out (Lock it up) & start cycling town.
Get a good head wind down Currumbin Bridge & start flying over the Airport...(Really!)

Think tbb copped every Can of Beer / Rotting fruit...#@!* Off ... (Yes! As in copped projectiles...Ouch!)
Green crew thought it was Cool! Pretty sure every Cyclist said they'd vote for us & did!
(Coupling took a few goes!) Had proper reflectors / Striped Warning Reflector Tape / Fluro Vest / Helmet
Sure...had some candidates order & model / Tour Council Chambers with them for TV news...(Really!)
No others here had Campaigned on bikes...a few years after, these trailers caught on for Beach Ads.

So just saying to assume that is a must have souped up Nuremberg Dolley Trolley Utility Lectern...Drool!
Pretty sure tbb made that whole thing up...these guys don't seem that clever...can't argue with that!
